Aaron has to take the blame for at least half those sacks. He just held on to the ball toooooo long trying to make something happen. He seemed to have open lanes to run at times, but wouldn't take them. Especially after Clifton goes down, you have to know the OL isn't going to hold, and get that ball out.

I agree for the most part. I was definitely thinking Rodgers needed to throw the ball away at least a few times when he had some of those linemen baring down on him. He's still being hurried and pressured way to much.

The problems with yesterday's loss started in the trenches. I'm hoping once we get Raji out there into the defensive line rotation a bit, hopefully our run defense will improve at least some what.

Rodgers held on to the ball for way too long at times, and made a few
(stupid) forced throws. He needs to make better reads. The OL was horrible too, but Rodgers still could've released passes earlier.

True.....he needs to learn to just throw it away out of bounds when the pocket breaks down.

I'll have to watch the tape, but it seemed to me like most or maybe all of the sacks happened when Rodgers was in the pocket. If you throw it away when you're in the pocket, that's intentional grounding. And I think that if Rodgers had started throwing the ball into coverage when he was under pressure, there would've been at least a couple interceptions and the Packers would've gotten blown out.

But again, I'll have to watch the tape. I'm not looking forward to it.

Don't watch it.....unless you are drugged up well. It's like watching a car accident.
I THINK Aaron Rodgers doesn't throw it away for fear of throwing INT's.

True.

Sacks after the Colledge adjustment happened pretty much right after the snap, I don't think he could do much about most of them.

The thing that really annoyed me was the nothing or all plays, looking for the deep score or uber conservative almost pedestrian Grant hand-offs. In both games we haven't developed a short/medium passing game, something which we have more than enough talent and resource to do.

Maybe 1 or 2 he could have thrown away, but most of them the pressure was to quick. Unless you want to see Rodgers get to his drop turn and throw the ball out of bounds.

Need to get back to the basics of WCO, slants, short drag routes. Screens, we ran 3 that I can recall in two games. Both games when pressure was coming which is prime for the screen.

Looking for some changes to the play calling to come soon.

ru freaking serious with this thread??

1 player got 5 sacks, rodgers had no time, and he had no int's. I thought rodgers showed great mobility, but eventually ran out of time.

much credit to the bengals defense, they were tough.
So if you meet me Have some courtesy, Have some sympathy, and some taste

Not so. At least two occurred when he was rolling to his right and essentially ran into traffic, swiveled to evade it, and got thrown to the ground. On at least one, perhaps two, I saw our lineman throw Odum into Rodgers, virtually guaranteeing the sack. Rodgers could probably have eluded at least two sacks by stepping up in the pocket, but he was decked the moment he tried to roll to his right.

I THINK Aaron Rodgers doesn't throw it away for fear of throwing INT's.

I've been ridiculed repeatedly for saying this, but I predicted this would be Rodgers' MO before last season even started. Whether Packers fans like this or not, Mike McCarthy would rather have his quarterback take a sack -- even lay down for one -- than chuck it up for an interception. I think Rodgers throws those bombs into double and triple coverage far more than McCarthy actually wants him to.
