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'

Fan Shout
Zero2Cool (5h) : If they'd been more patient with him, he'd be back already. Putting him out there vs Bears caused him to tweak it and here we are.
packerfanoutwest (5h) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it
beast (7h) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done
Zero2Cool (13h) : Could ban beast and I still don't think anyone catches him.
Mucky Tundra (26-Dec) : Houston getting dog walked by Baltimore
packerfanoutwest (25-Dec) : Feliz Navidad!
Zero2Cool (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas!
beast (25-Dec) : Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
beast (24-Dec) : Sounds like no serious injuries from the Saints game and Jacobs and Watson should play in the Vikings game
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : both games Watson missed, Packers won
Martha Careful (24-Dec) : I hope all of you have a Merry Christmas!
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Oh I know about Jacobs, I just couldn't pass up an opportunity to mimic Zero lol
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : Jacobs was just sat down, Watson re-injured that knee that kept him out 1 game earlier
buckeyepackfan (24-Dec) : I needed .14 that's. .14 points for the whole 4th quarter to win and go to the SB. Lol
Mucky Tundra (24-Dec) : Jacobs gonna be OK???
Zero2Cool (24-Dec) : Watson gonna be OK???
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : Inactives tonight for the Pack: Alexander- knee Bullard - ankle Williams - quad Walker -ankle Monk Heath
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : No Jaire, but hopefully the front 7 destroys the line of scrimmage & forces Rattler into a few passes to McKinney.
packerfanoutwest (24-Dec) : minny could be #1 seed and the Lions #5 seed
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : We'd have same Division and Conference records. Strength of schedule we edge them
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I just checked. What tie breaker?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes its possible but unlikely. If we do get the 5th, we face the NFCS winner
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ahh, ok.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : yes due to tie breaker
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I mean, unlikely, yes, but mathematically, 5th is possible by what I'm reading.
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : If Vikings lose out, Packers win out, Packers get 5th, right?
bboystyle (23-Dec) : Minny isnt going to lose out so 5th seed is out of the equation. We are playing for the 6th or 7th seed which makes no difference
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, the ad revenue goes to the broadcast company but they gotta pay to air the game on their channel/network
beast (23-Dec) : If we win tonight the game is still relative in terms of 5th, 6th or 7th seed... win and it's 5th or 6th, lose and it's 6th or 7th
beast (23-Dec) : Mucky, I thought the ad revenue went to the broadcasting companies or the NFL, at least not directly
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I think the revenue share is moot, isn't it? That's the CBA an Salary Cap handling that.
bboystyle (23-Dec) : i mean game becomes irrelevant if we win tonight. Just a game where we are trying to play spoilers to Vikings chance at the #1 seed
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : beast, I would guess ad revenue from more eyes watching tv
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I would think it would hurt the home team because people would have to cancel last minute maybe? i dunno
beast (23-Dec) : I agree that it's BS for fans planning on going to the game. But how does it bring in more money? I'm guessing indirectly?
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : bs on flexing the game....they do it for the $$league$$, not the hometown fans
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I see what you did there Mucky
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : dammit. 3:25pm
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Packers Vikings flexed to 3:35pm
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Upon receiving the news about Luke Musgrave, I immediately fell to the ground
Mucky Tundra (23-Dec) : Yeah baby!
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : LUKE MUSGRAVE PLAYING TONIGHT~!~~~~WOWHOAAOHAOAA yah
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : I wanna kill new QB's ... blitz the crap out of them.
beast (23-Dec) : Barry seemed to get too conservative against new QBs, Hafley doesn't have that issue
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : However, we seem to struggle vs new QB's
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Should be moot point, cuz Packers should win tonight.
packerfanoutwest (23-Dec) : ok I stand corrected
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : Ok, yes, you are right. I see that now how they get 7th
Zero2Cool (23-Dec) : 5th - Packers win out, Vikings lose out. Maybe?
beast (23-Dec) : Saying no to the 6th lock.
