I know for a fact the Rodgers tried to throw 2 passes away. But damn if Finley and Nelson didn't somehow catch them for TDs.

The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!

Rodgers is mobile so why not use that mobility more?

Maybe because he's already getting hit in the double digits every game? With every run, he's exposing himself to the possibility of another major hit and another injury. I love his mobility as much as the next guy, but I don't want him sacrificing his own health just to give his offensive linemen a break. It's their job to watch out for him, not his to watch out for them.

Has anyone else worried about the David Carr effect?

People have correctly pointed out that Rodgers sometimes holds onto the ball too long. But the reality is that he's getting hit an awful lot. And, it seems to me that as long as the OL problems persist, might it be more likely that Rodgers will develop more bad habits (happy feet, bad mechanics, etc) rather than less?

And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

They had this same problem a few years back. Suspect line and a QB that was taking to many hits. They simply ran plays that had the QB rollout to his right. Sealed off that side of the field and let "HIM" :angel11: toss the rock. It worked fairly well. Granted he is only using half the field but at least they were able to throw the ball without him getting manhandled every time.

AR will also add the dimension of being able to run the rall if no one is open.

Yep. I have worried about it and mentioned it. At some point it becomes pretty unrealistic to ask your QB not to let the fact that every snap is a jailbreak affect him.

I am very worried that this issue is going to degrade his level of play at some point if it's not dealt with.

When it was happening wit another team, I didn't much care but now this is starting to hit too close to home.

Mentioned this before as well. This will have an impact on both his body and his psyche. QBs that take that much hits don't last long in the NFL. At least not on a high level.

I know I posted this last time I made this statement as well, but it fits our issues and fears so perfectly....

The Packers have two weeks to fix the offensive line. How do you go about it?

This is my plan

Sign Levi Jones and Mark Tauscher.

Two veterans that can come in and fill in if there is an injury. Get them up to date with the offense and that shouldn't be hard for Tauscher.

To make room, cut Breno G and Evan Dietrich-Smith.

Zero2Cool (5h) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (9h) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (9h) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (10h) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (10h) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (10h) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (10h) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (10h) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (10h) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (10h) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (10h) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (10h) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (11h) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (11h) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.

Zero2Cool (11h) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.

Zero2Cool (11h) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.

dfosterf (13h) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"

dfosterf (13h) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that

dfosterf (13h) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024

Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.

dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move

dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.

dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation

Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : what

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : WINNING IT, not someone else losing it. The best victory though was re-uniting with his wife

Martha Careful (14-Apr) : The manner in which he won it was just amazing and wonderful. First blowing the lead then getting back, then blowing it. But ultimately

Zero2Cool (12-Apr) : I'm guessing since the thumb was broken, he wasn't feeling it.

dfosterf (10-Apr) : Looking for guidance. Not feeling the thumb.

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : If they knew about it or not

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : I don't recall that he did which is why I asked.

Zero2Cool (10-Apr) : Guessing they probably knew. Did he have cast or something on?

Mucky Tundra (10-Apr) : Did they know that at the time or was that something the realized afterwards?

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Van Ness played most of season with broken thumb

wpr (9-Apr) : yay

Zero2Cool (9-Apr) : Mark Murphy says Steelers likely to protect Packers game. Meaning, no Ireland

Zero2Cool (8-Apr) : Struggling to figure out what text editor options are needed and which are 'nice to have'

Mucky Tundra (8-Apr) : *CHOMP CHOMP CHOMP*

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : WR who said he'd break Xavier Worthy 40 time...and ran slower than you

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Who?

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Texas’ WR Isaiah Bond is scheduled to visit the Bills, Browns, Chiefs, Falcons, Packers and Titans starting next week.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : Spotting ball isn't changing, only measuring distance is, Which wasn't the issue.

Zero2Cool (2-Apr) : The spotting of the ball IS the issue. Not the chain gang.

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?
