Me. Cal2GreenBay...
I said it.
Sure he's producing respectable numbers. Sure he's been decent with his
completion percentage. Sure he doesn't gamble like Brett Favre did(does).
But as the HEIR APPARENT as the Green Bay leader...
AARON RODGERS MUST WIN.
PERIOD.
I've seen the close games this year...they could go either way.
The defense gave up big plays last year as well.
The X factor is that I was "expecting" Aaron to come through
during the final drives to win games.
In Atlanta, Tennesee, New Orleans, Houston...AND especially today in Jacksonville...
Aaron had a chance to WIN THE GAME...and did not.
I know his shoulder's not 100% still.
I know he's altered his throwing motion slightly.
And I too believe he's pressing a bit.
but Aaron DOES need to make something out of nothing.
It is the ultimate paradox.
YOu don't want to press but you do want to make something happen.
If you win..you are a gunslinger...if you lose..you are pressing.
So Aaron is pressing.
He needs to FIND WAYS to win.
Even when his normal accuracy passes are not working..he's got
to BELIEVE he can win.
We can talk bad coaching, bad defense, bad plays all we want to..
But it's essentially the same team last year.
Brett is the x-factor for the JETs.
they are finding ways to win.
As much as it pains me to say it...
Aaron has not been the x-factor for the PACKERS.
He has proven to me that he can fill the stat book,
but I need him to show me the x-factor he showed at CAL..
The x-factor that MATT RYAN is showing.
Aaron needs to prove something and get this team winning
for the last two games.
And he BETTER show some grit next year.
Yes..I said it.
