Aaron Rodgers: ‘The energy and the tempo starts with me’

I know a few people who would be glad to see the Packers stop wasting time outs. 😂 😍

GREEN BAY – Aaron Rodgers, as usual, is taking it upon himself.

For the Packers’ offense to reach the level of efficiency and productivity it needs to, the two-time MVP quarterback said on Wednesday it’s on him to pick up the pace.

“The energy and the tempo starts with me in practice, in the game, and guys need to feel that even more,” Rodgers said. “So I need to amp up my level during the game and get us playing faster.”

That doesn’t necessarily mean more no-huddle, hurry-up stuff, but it could. More specifically, Rodgers referenced not wasting any more timeouts because the offense is slow getting either into or out of the huddle, and also trusting his progressions in the passing game to find the open receiver and get him the ball in a timely manner.

If he was a rookie QB, you could understand not being able to get a play off on time. But 14 years in? Unacceptable.

Props to AR to shouldering responsibility on some of the Packer woes, as a good leader should.

Maybe one day we will find out whether AR or MM is mostly to blame for the Packers impotent offense in 2018. Maybe right after they release the final documents on the Kennedy assassination.

A good athlete knows what to do. A great athlete knows how to do it. Aaron Rodgers knows how to do it because he has done it before. I just wonder why it has taken him until now to realize it and why, it seems, we have to go through this year after year.

In a way it reminds of the Chicago Bulls of the Jordan era. The score would be 76-75 after three and the bulls would win 110-85.

While exciting, it doesn't leave much room for error if the other teams don't cooperate.

True. It’s not just one thing, or one person that has caused all the screw ups.
Look how well they move the ball, only to sputter to a stop at the most inopportune time.
Add that to so many special teams mess ups. “Bing” Crosby missing field goals, fumbles by returners, illegal blocks on kick returns taking away long returns. Defensive screw ups at the worst times.
We could be in a good place had they just not made these screw ups.
How many times do you have to be told “don’t block in the back or hold on kickoff/ punt returns” ?????

dfosterf (4-May) : Google it. Make sure to tack NFL on it or you will get the military meaning

Zero2Cool (4-May) : S2?

beast (4-May) : Seems like the S2 has a love/hate relationship with professional scouts.

beast (4-May) : In theory, the S2 test how quickly a QBs brain can solve game like issues and how quickly they can do it.

dfosterf (4-May) : Are you gentlemen and at least one lady familiar with the S2 cognition

Zero2Cool (4-May) : Maybe there isn't an issue.

beast (27-Apr) : Thank goodness he's not leaving the Turtle in the Red Tide

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Cowboys 1st round pick Tyler Booker will indeed be bringing his pet turtle to Dallas with him

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : that contained all prospects info and contact

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : beast, according the Falcons statement Jax came across it on an ipad. If I had to guess, probably an open spread sheet or something

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Simmons put up an emoji with cheese.

beast (27-Apr) : Not sure anyone is interested in Isaiah Simmons... Collin Oliver might of taken his potential slot

beast (27-Apr) : I'm going with Jax Ulbrich is not telling the whole truth... he accidentally came across it? Why would a defensive coordinator have a QB #?

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : He's not that great, but final piece of the script.\

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : If we add Isaiah Simmons, book your Super Bowl tickets

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Colts 1st round TE Tyler Warren also got prank called, was that Jax Ulbrich as well?

Zero2Cool (27-Apr) : Jax Ulbrich, Jeff Ulbrich’s son, released an apology for his role in the Shedeur Sanders prank call.

Martha Careful (27-Apr) : apparently he did not participate in practice or play on the east west shrine game nor the NFL combine. The kid was a mediocre spoiled brat

Mucky Tundra (27-Apr) : Yeah that one that was a super wounded duck that Sanders supporters are highlighting to prove a point
