We’ve all seen the numbers. Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers was sacked a total of 51 times in 2012 – more than any other NFL quarterback – and 55 times if you count the playoffs. It eclipsed his previous record of 50 sacks in 2009 and brings his five-year total as a starter to [...]

Aaron Rodgers average time in pocket was 2.82 sec. which ranked him 35th in the league. (QBs with at least 2 starts)

Not the OLs fault he can't get rid of the ball.

Or just leave the pocket running for his life and just throw it away in under 2.5 seconds (better run fast!) because he's afraid people will criticize him for holding on to it for so long.

Amazing how people will bitch and complain constantly about one of if not the most prolific offense in the history of the game.

It's the receivers fault. If they'd get open quicker and run better routes, the quarterback wouldn't have to hold the ball longer than 3 seconds in the pocket.

It's the Republican's fault, it they'd pay more taxes we could buy some - oh wait, wrong forum. I agree with Porforis. Prolific offense and we whine and cry cause we don't run the ball enough and our quarterback gets sacked too much.

I really don't have a problem pointing out specific areas/people that need improvement. The problem is when you're bringing up "the run game" (Is it the RBs, scheme, line, playcalls, timing, or all of the above?) or "Holding onto the ball for too long" that is far too complex of an issue to chalk up to one or two individual problems. Part of it is Rodgers. A large part of it is the O line. A large part of it is people not getting open earlier. And stats of how long he holds onto the ball doesn't examine how often he's making completions versus taking a sack, WHEN he's taking most of the sacks (is 3rd and long in punting range the end of the world to take a sack on if you've got a 50-50 shot of getting a first down if you find someone open?). Only when you clearly break down all of these factors without turning it into a "what-if" party can you really tell who is at fault, and if Rodgers holding onto it sometimes is really a bad thing considering all the times he DOES escape pressure and turns it into a run for a first down or a completion.

I just want a respectable running game so that defenders can't just pin their ears back and bring it. Taking the ball out of Rodgers' hands is ludicrous. Now if he were a turnover machine like Favre was, I would be all for more running. The reason that defense caught up to our passing game is because they didn't have to respect our run.

Our pass blocking has suffered because Wells was better than Saturday/EDS , Clifton was better than Newhouse, Lang was playing with one arm, and Bulaga got injured. All of these problems we had last will be eradicated. It is good to be a Packer fan.
