I know a few people who would be glad to see the Packers stop wasting time outs. 😂 😍

GREEN BAY – Aaron Rodgers, as usual, is taking it upon himself.

For the Packers’ offense to reach the level of efficiency and productivity it needs to, the two-time MVP quarterback said on Wednesday it’s on him to pick up the pace.

“The energy and the tempo starts with me in practice, in the game, and guys need to feel that even more,” Rodgers said. “So I need to amp up my level during the game and get us playing faster.”

That doesn’t necessarily mean more no-huddle, hurry-up stuff, but it could. More specifically, Rodgers referenced not wasting any more timeouts because the offense is slow getting either into or out of the huddle, and also trusting his progressions in the passing game to find the open receiver and get him the ball in a timely manner.

If he was a rookie QB, you could understand not being able to get a play off on time. But 14 years in? Unacceptable.

Props to Aaron Rodgers to shouldering responsibility on some of the Packer woes, as a good leader should.

Maybe one day we will find out whether Aaron Rodgers or Mike McCarthy is mostly to blame for the Packers impotent offense in 2018. Maybe right after they release the final documents on the Kennedy assassination.

A good athlete knows what to do. A great athlete knows how to do it. Aaron Rodgers knows how to do it because he has done it before. I just wonder why it has taken him until now to realize it and why, it seems, we have to go through this year after year.

In a way it reminds of the Chicago Bulls of the Jordan era. The score would be 76-75 after three and the bulls would win 110-85.

While exciting, it doesn't leave much room for error if the other teams don't cooperate.

True. It’s not just one thing, or one person that has caused all the screw ups.
Look how well they move the ball, only to sputter to a stop at the most inopportune time.
Add that to so many special teams mess ups. “Bing” Crosby missing field goals, fumbles by returners, illegal blocks on kick returns taking away long returns. Defensive screw ups at the worst times.
We could be in a good place had they just not made these screw ups.
How many times do you have to be told “don’t block in the back or hold on kickoff/ punt returns” ?????

Zero2Cool (20h) : I guess 3 games. Whatever

Zero2Cool (20h) : Bleh, that only impacts two games.

Zero2Cool (20h) : Packers are gonna get 3rd place division schedule next year.

Mucky Tundra (21h) : Kanata, seek help! lol

beast (23h) : I was rooting for the Bears to win and hurt their draft pick status

Zero2Cool (23h) : Forgot there was even a game last night haha

TheKanataThrilla (23h) : That was terrible.

TheKanataThrilla (23h) : Watching that game in its entirety yesterday is proof positive that I am a football addict.

beast (27-Dec) : And horrible time management multiple times... and not being able to score more than 3 points on a team with talent

beast (27-Dec) : Realizing the Bears didn't fix it from the previous week and do the same thing, getting the game to overtime

beast (27-Dec) : They probably are not tanking, but they've absolutely mismanagement some things, such as Vikings seeing the Packers blocked FG and realizing

Zero2Cool (27-Dec) : Crazy of Bears to have that mindset that is

Zero2Cool (27-Dec) : Hail Mary stop away from 5 - 2. Not sure how that flips to tanking. Crazy mindset if true

beast (27-Dec) : I've quietly questioned if Bears are tanking on purpose... they suddenly got a lot worse with some simple concepts like 101 clock management

wpr (27-Dec) : Watching bares fans melt down over how putrid their team is, so enjoyable. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

Mucky Tundra (27-Dec) : The Seattle Seahawks defeat the Chicago Bears 6-3. Jason Myers had 6 RBIs for Seattle while Cairo Santos had 3 RBI for Chicago

beast (27-Dec) : Not nessarily, he might of been injured either way. He's playing about 50% of the games the last 4 years

Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : 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 (26-Dec) : well this is his last season with the PAck, book it

beast (26-Dec) : Sounds like no Alexander (again), I'm wondering if his time with the Packers is done

Zero2Cool (26-Dec) : 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
