I know for a fact the Rodgers tried to throw 2 passes away. But damn if Finley and Nelson didn't somehow catch them for TDs.

Rodgers is mobile so why not use that mobility more?

Maybe because he's already getting hit in the double digits every game? With every run, he's exposing himself to the possibility of another major hit and another injury. I love his mobility as much as the next guy, but I don't want him sacrificing his own health just to give his offensive linemen a break. It's their job to watch out for him, not his to watch out for them.

Has anyone else worried about the David Carr effect?

People have correctly pointed out that Rodgers sometimes holds onto the ball too long. But the reality is that he's getting hit an awful lot. And, it seems to me that as long as the OL problems persist, might it be more likely that Rodgers will develop more bad habits (happy feet, bad mechanics, etc) rather than less?

They had this same problem a few years back. Suspect line and a QB that was taking to many hits. They simply ran plays that had the QB rollout to his right. Sealed off that side of the field and let "HIM" :angel11: toss the rock. It worked fairly well. Granted he is only using half the field but at least they were able to throw the ball without him getting manhandled every time.
Aaron Rodgers will also add the dimension of being able to run the rall if no one is open.

Yep. I have worried about it and mentioned it. At some point it becomes pretty unrealistic to ask your QB not to let the fact that every snap is a jailbreak affect him.

I am very worried that this issue is going to degrade his level of play at some point if it's not dealt with.

Mentioned this before as well. This will have an impact on both his body and his psyche. QBs that take that much hits don't last long in the NFL. At least not on a high level.

I know I posted this last time I made this statement as well, but it fits our issues and fears so perfectly....

The Packers have two weeks to fix the offensive line. How do you go about it?

This is my plan

Sign Levi Jones and Mark Tauscher.

Two veterans that can come in and fill in if there is an injury. Get them up to date with the offense and that shouldn't be hard for Tauscher.

To make room, cut Breno G and Evan Dietrich-Smith.

dfosterf (30-Jan) : from ft Belvoir, Quantico and points south. Somber reminder of this tragedy at Reagan Nat Airport

dfosterf (30-Jan) : So eeri
Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Now that's a thought, maybe they're looking at the college ranks? Maybe not head coaches but DC/assistant DCs with league experience?
beast (30-Jan) : College Coaches wouldn't want that publicly, as it would hurt recruiting and they might not get the job.
beast (30-Jan) : I thought they were supposed to publicly announce them, at least the NFL ones. Hafley was from college, so I believe different rules.
Mucky Tundra (30-Jan) : Who knows who they're interviewing? I mean, nobody knew about Hafley and then out of nowhere he was hired
beast (30-Jan) : I wonder what's taking so long with hiring a DL coach, 2 of the 3 known to interview have already been hired elsewhere.
Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Packers coach Matt LaFleur hires Luke Getsy as senior assistant, extends Rich Bisaccia's deal
Zero2Cool (27-Jan) : Chiefs again huh? I guess another Super Bowl I'll be finding something else to do.
Mucky Tundra (27-Jan) : Chiefs Eagles...again...sigh
dfosterf (27-Jan) : Happy Birthday Dave!
Mucky Tundra (27-Jan) : happy birthday dhazer
TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Exactly buck...Washington came up with the ball. It is just a shitty coincidence one week later
buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : I forgot, they corrected the call a week later. Lol btw HAPPY BIRTHDAY dhazer!
buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : That brings up the question, why wasn't Nixon down by contact? I think that was the point Kanata was making.
buckeyepackfan (26-Jan) : Turnovers rule, win the turnover battle, win the game.
packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : well, he was
TheKanataThrilla (26-Jan) : Eagles down by contact on the fumble....fuck you NFL
Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : I think this games over
beast (26-Jan) : Eagles sure get a lot of fumbles on kickoffs
Mucky Tundra (26-Jan) : This game looks too big for Washington
packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : that being said, The Ravens are the Browns
packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : Browns, Dolphins have longest AFC Championship droughts
packerfanoutwest (26-Jan) : As of today, Cowboys have longest NFC Championship drought,
beast (26-Jan) : Someone pointed out, with Raiders hiring Carroll, the division games between Carroll and Jim Harbaugh are back on (who can whine more games)
beast (26-Jan) : I'm confused, Pete Carroll and Brian Schottenheimer? When Todd Monken, Joe Brady, Kellen Moore, Kliff Kingsbury and Zac Robinson are availab
Zero2Cool (25-Jan) : Any reason I'm catching a shot here about my intelligence?
Martha Careful (25-Jan) : thank you Mucky for sticking up for me
Martha Careful (25-Jan) : some of those people are smarter than you zero. However Pete Carroll is not
Mucky Tundra (24-Jan) : Rude!
beast (24-Jan) : Martha? 😋
Zero2Cool (24-Jan) : Raiders hired someone from the elderly home.
dfosterf (24-Jan) : I'm going with a combination of the two.
beast (24-Jan) : Either the Cowboys have no idea what they're doing, or they're targeting their former OC, currently the Eagles OC
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Fake news. Cowboys say no
Zero2Cool (23-Jan) : Mystery candidate in the Cowboys head coaching search believed to be Packers ST Coordinator Rich Bisaccia.
beast (23-Jan) : Also why do both NYC teams have absolutely horrible OL for over a decade?
beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Aaron Glenn Planning To Take Jets HC Job
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Martha- C'est mon boulot! 😁
