Is it possible he's going through the Kurt Warner mid career crisis? I recall Warner going through tons of struggles while he transitioned from his St. Louis days to his latter Arizona days. I'm not saying Rodgers needs a different environment to play well, but part of me believes we've already seen the best he has to offer.

Maybe like you're saying, maybe his body isn't reacting how he's accustomed and that's giving him a little mid-career-crisis?

Something I keep going back to is A.J. Hawk played like a man with his feet in quick sand and repeatedly said he was healthy. Aaron Rodgers on his Tuesday's with Aaron show let the cat out of the bag that he had a really bad ankle (I think) injury that he was toughing through.

There was a play against the Rams (or maybe Chargers) where Rodgers was dumped hard on his shoulder. I was thinking, damn that has to hurt. I'm wondering if something similar to Hawk is happening with Rodgers? Meaning that he's injured far more than he's letting on and that's causing him to be hesitant to run to move the chains and also effecting his accuracy?

As I reread this thread's post, I was surprised to see where the WRs/TEs were not assigned their proper blame . From my view (in the Chat) and other larger screens, I saw our #12 forced to hold the football for longer than he should have because his receivers could not get open . No offensive line can protect any QB for longer than 3 or at best 4 seconds. After that , it's beyond how the play was drawn up and practiced, the QB either scrambles to gain time for someone to get open or run with the ball or throw the ball away . I just hope that the return of Nelson and the addition of Cook at TE will allow for somewhere to throw the football this 2016 season. In addition, Cobb and the others may just benefit as well, as opposing coverage's adjust to a more effective core of receivers .

If he has another off year, then maybe I have some concerns. Right now, nope.
