Rodgers had the balls to say there was no one open on 3rd down· Page 4

One thing I think a lot of people are failing to realize is that Rodgers only has 1 INT this year. He’s on his longest streak of his career with no INT’s.

But wait, he’s playing like shit.

I’m not worried that Rodgers will throw his WRs under the bus.......he’ll probably short hop it anyway.

I will happily take the 2011 Aaron Rodgers back but it is looking more and more like that window has already closed, been locked and reinforced with plywood.

ZTC a good “Think About It Today”

Do not get so discouraged when someone tells you that you are not good enough. There is a great chance that they cannot recognize true talent. Do not to let them control your destiny.

I hope some team members read the site!

The difference is that 2011, he had receivers who got separation and knew how to keep moving until they got open. Contrast that to a couple of plays you can see on the highlights from this week, in which Jimmy Graham was literally standing around if he knew the ball wasn't coming in his direction.

I think many are overthinking it. Rodgers likely isn't doing anything malicious, he's just not playing that great. That's an important difference. I'm very confident Rodgers wants to win, and would prefer a win every day of the week over a loss with a couple big plays but still not huge stats. When he misses guys, I doubt it's on purpose, he's just playing like an above average quarterback and not an elite QB. Welcome to what most of the NFL is used to. Packers fans just aren't accustomed, so we have a hard time grasping.

I also think he has a bit of an ego and big plays help pump him up. The thing is, he can make those plays so like they say it ain't bragging if you can back it up. Lastly I think he has a different idea about what the best way to win is and he is taking more upon his own shoulders than he needs to.

When its all clicking its all well and good but when it isn't we have a situation like we are going through now. IMO it will start clicking again.

Could he be purposely missing throws to keep the score close, but still lose so that Mike McCarthy gets canned?
(I don’t really believe that, but it sure seems that way )

gbguy20 asked about third-down sack records. I don't have that information handy, but I can tell you that third-down sacks are devastating to offensive drives. All sacks are a major setback, but third-down drives are especially difficult to recover from. They're effectively the kiss of death to drives

Do those stats exist? Rodgers was sacked on 3rd down 5 times in thursday. That has to be close to a record. Should be embarrassing for Rodgers too.

Zero2Cool (12h) : Tua’s old DC won a Super Bowl Year 1 with Tua’s former backup

Mucky Tundra (14h) : *winning MVP

Mucky Tundra (15h) : Funny observation I've heard: Carson Wentz was on the sideline for both Eagles Super Bowl wins w/guys supposed to be his back up winning

Zero2Cool (20h) : NFL thought it would get more attention week preceding Super Bowl.

Zero2Cool (20h) : Yes, the Pro Bowl. It was played Sunday before Super Bowl from 2010-2022

packerfanoutwest (20h) : pro bowl

Zero2Cool (20h) : From 2010 to 2022, it was played on the Sunday before the Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (20h) : They moved it to the BYE week before Super Bowl several years ago.

packerfanoutwest (20h) : it was always after the SB.....

beast (10-Feb) : Though I stop following pro bowl years ago

beast (10-Feb) : I thought the pro game was before the Super Bowl?

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : ok now for the Pro Bowl Game in Hawaii

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : If I was Philly I would try to end it instead of punting it

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : VICTORY! We have (moral) victory!

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Hey they mentioned that we 3-peted

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : seems to me the 49ers should have traded Aiyuk when they had the chance

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : if the Eagles get it down to the 1, do they Tush Push or give it to Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : 49ers have a money problem if they want to sign their QB

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Wait for real? Didn't he just get an extension two years ago?

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : 49ers gonna trade Deebo. Interesting

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Replays always never seem to show the holdings

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Great throw by Hurts

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Where Carter falls prey to bad off the field influences (to be clear, not saying he'd clip someone though)

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Had Carter not gone to Philly were they already had a lot of old college friends, he ends up in a similar spot to Aaron Hernandez

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : I think some of his coaches told scouts to stay away

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : the street racing incident+conditioning and motivation problems

beast (10-Feb) : Then Carter was street racing, where the other car crashed and people died... and other teams were scared to pick Carter for some reason

beast (10-Feb) : I think the Saints traded up, giving their next year 1st to the Eagles, and then they sucked and Eagles got the 10th overall pick

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : wtf Barkley?

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Getting Carter and Nolan Smith in the first round in 2023 was pretty darn good

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : for some reason i'm thinking of a draft where the Eagles where in the mid 20s and a top player fell all the way to them

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think so. I would need to look it up. Think it may have been Carolina's pick.

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : i'm not sure who i'm thinking of now

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh fuck me i messed that up

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Jordan Davis was 13th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Carter was 9th overall

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles had 15th and 10th selections, moved to 13 and 9 to get Davis and Carter back to back

Zero2Cool (10-Feb) : Eagles traded up for Carter, didn't they?

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Obviously he was a huge risk but getting a top 5 talent on the dline in the mid 20s is fortuitous

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : Jalen Carter falling into their lap certainly helps

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : And we could only wish to have this type of D

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : It's not like Philly has had low draft picks, but has managed to get themselves a top notch pass rush. We spend so much draft capital of D

packerfanoutwest (10-Feb) : another crap halftime show

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : I think it is over, but then I think of Atlanta and want Philly to go in with the same intensity in the second half

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : And with a Pass Rush that might as well be on a milk cartoon and no Jaire

Martha Careful (10-Feb) : I cant help but feel good about how well the Packers D played in Philly during the playoffs

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : this game is over

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : This might be the kill shot here

Mucky Tundra (10-Feb) : oh that's such a bad penalty for KC after getting the 3rd down stop

TheKanataThrilla (10-Feb) : Philly DL has come to play
