Okay coach, lets see you do your thing.
Why have you and your staff allowed fundamentals slide?

To me, the trust they spoke of provides more to interpret. Aaron Rodgers trusting the offense? Aaron Rodgers trusting his receivers. Aaron Rodgers being ABLE to trust numbnuts like Janis to run a route or RR to actually try to get off the line?
