You know me i always find something to complain about, last night i noticed with Rodgers playing so great that he does have a tendency i picked up and if i can pick it up i'm sure the Def Cords can. He favors throwing to his right alot. I noticed on a few blitzes the wr on the left had like a 10 yard cushion and the wr on the right is in tight coverage and he would throw it to the right. Thats the only bad thing i have to say about Rodgers. Now some bad things i have seen from the rest of the team and that is what is up with Crosby.

The defense starters are very impressive but the backups are getting torched every week so far.

I don't think there is an issue throwing one way or the other. His blitz throws haven't looked any different to me than what Brett did. I would have to see the games again, but my guess is that it is not that he throws to the right, it is that he prefers certain WR in that situation. Just like Brett did.

Depending on the year, Brett threw hot to the same guy most of the time. It changed year to year as the players changed, but over the last few years with Brett, how often did he throw left to DD during the blitz. A lot more than he did to anyone else.

I understand what your saying but hey i have to bitch about something with Rodgers or i will lose all my rep lol 😛
But i noticed it last night and even said it in chat everything was to the right no matter who the wr was. I recall seeing Jordy having a 10 yard cushion and Rodgers still went to the press covered man.
Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)

When you brought it up during the chat it was in fact quite noticeable.

On a Rodgers sidenote i was really pleased the way the team still excelled without Greg Jennings in the lineup. He spread the ball around to many different recievers and the loss of our best reciever didn't slow the Packer Offensive machine one bit. It sure show the quality we have from top to bottom in our reciever corps.

That surprised me not in the least, either.

I maintain that from top to bottom our wide receiver corps

is still underrated, especially when you factor in the depth in the sense that I really expect very little if any fall-off when something like that happens to the "main man" out there. There are not many teams that you can make that kind of statement about, including the most common ones the national media puts out there.

They (the media) focuses on tandems. OK, I understand that, but what happens when one of the two in those much-heralded tandems goes down?

Probably nothing good. The Pack, however, has a very high degree of "interchangeability" in that department... I trust pretty much the whole damn corps

I agree in part about rodgers but I think the game plan was to pick on Cromartie he generally lined up on the right. Conversely R handed Qbs flow to the right. Another thing most defensives are right handed (QBs Left) in their playmakers.
I am therefor I think.

It is possible, though admittedly not likely, that for practice purposes, Rodgers is being asked to throw it into the tighter coverage, regardless of who is actually open. The downfall of many a quarterback is the inability to thread the all into tight coverage without racking up interceptions.

Jb, if that observation that Dhaze came up with in chat and here on the forum is his best shot at an analysis and critique that he has for us...

Trust me, the only thing that is surprising is that we didn't just win a Superbowl or something last night.
