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 AR 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!

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 MM 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.
