1-2 sacks I'll blame Aaron Rodgers for, but you shouldn't discourage him from keeping plays alive. He did this on Lee's dropped TD for example...I'll take the many pros over the fewer cons!
This is all our incompotent tackles...that's it. I honestly can't think of a play where Aaron Rodgers wasn't on the move. 8 sacks is f'n pathetic!

This talk about deer in the headlights and holding the ball too long is just plain wrong period.
Rodgers' style of play is he's going to keep the play alive as long as it takes. Think Ben Roethlisberger. They're constantly looking to get the ball down the field. That's their style of play and there is nothing wrong with that. When Rodgers wants too, he can get rid of the ball as quick as anyone in the NFL right now. It depends on the play call and situation though.
There was no deer in the headlights as some are suggesting. That again is wrong and I don't like to use that ignorant kind of talk because everyone is entitle to their opinion, but for this, those saying that deserve it.
When you watch the game, it's not just the sacks that are occurring, but the the pocket is collapsing on plays that Rodgers throws the ball on. He's force out of the pocket way too soon and he's forced to do things different. There are zero throwing lanes at times and that's one of the reasons he has to hold the ball too long.
He can't see the receiver because a lineman is coming.
I'm not saying he doesn't take some unnessacary sacks or hits, but Rodgers is not the reason the Packers have 20 sacks right now. The offensive line is. They're a joke.
