I see only a couple of answers to this mystery.

1. Greg Jennings is not better than most team's No. 1 CB. Therefor, he's not open.

2. Aaron Rodgers doesn't know how to get the ball to the playmakers.

3. Mike McCarthy doesn't put players in the right position to succeed.

Honestly, I haven't watched the situation close enough to make a firm decision. I think the answer lies somewhere between No. 2 and No. 3. Last year, Jennings started very slow as well and then emerged as the year went on. I think we're seeing some parallels between the offense a year ago and now this season.

This team for whatever reason is a slow starter.

So chutzpah, you're saying that it is Rodgers who fails to find Jennings?

Or he doesn't have time in the pocket to find him.

I like Rodgers, but he is becoming too cocky after his success last year. He is not finding open WRs and is throwing the ball poorly at times. GB needs to find a real HC to bring him back down to Earth again, because Mike McCarthy just doesn't have the balls.

I think Jennings routes take longer to develop and by the time he does, Rodgers has someone in his face.

1. During the Detroit game, fox showed a stat of # of times targeted. JM, DD, and GJ were all within 1 attempt of each other leading the team.

Also, to comment on Porky's 1st point, Aikman alluded to how our depth at WR often exceeds the opponents depth at DB/LB and I tend to agree. Jones and Jordy are going up against nickle backs, and that will often favor the packers.

That, and it seemed the few time Aaron Rodgers got the ball to someone, they dropped it.

Although he may think of himself as a primer NFL, that is far from the truth. Despite all the hype over his stats last year, he has a lot to work on before he can even be considered a primer NFL QB. I do believe Rodgers will be this kind of player in the future, but he has shown no improvement in his play from last year. He should focus on improvement, rather than buying into all the unjustified hype.

I don't get how Rodgers has come across cocky. I think that's more of a Favre fans perception of him that has been passed around forum to forum or gas station to gas station. I mean, I don't see it at all in his interviews. He continues to be critical of himself. Sometimes overcritical.

Nevertheless, Chutzpah's points have merit. Rodgers has no business being mentioned with the likes of Drew Brees, Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. Can he win in the postseason first? What about that signature road victory? Just sayin'
