Blame the OL all you want but IMO Rodgers needs to release the ball faster, like Favre, and stop making dumb decisions. Those INTs are on him.
1st pick: No defender in his face. Steps into throw. Throws way behind his WR.
2nd pick: No defender in his face. Steps into throw. Throws into quadruple coverage.
3rd pick: Tons of time in the pocket. Thrown way too high.

The first pick was not behind the receiver, he was leading Driver perfectly. Except for there was a safety between him and Driver so it was picked off. Poor decision and a poor read of the defense. That was really bad.
The second interception was a horrible decision to throw into quadruple coverage. However, it went right through Jennings hands and should have been a touchdown. Zombie, I think you're right about that play. I watched the replay several times and it's hard to see perfectly but it appears to go right through Jennings hands and hit the hand of a defender who was ahead of him. The defender didn't have his hands in between Jennings so he didn't knock it loose. Anyway, change that play and Rodgers day looks much different and you don't get the second pick because we're ahead and not trying to force stuff.
The third interception was high and behind. I couldn't see how much Driver got his hands on the ball, it looked like only a fingertip in which case you can't fault Driver. Poor throw by Rodgers and capped what was not a good performance from him.
The offensive line, receivers, and Rodgers were all poor yesterday. Very poor. The special teams was even worse and the defense was an embarassment. Every single member of the team deserves a shit ton of blame and based on that performance they were not worthy of wearing the Green and Gold.
