Maybe run some short routes for a change. Nobody is going to expect it anymore.

McGinn has an article for subscribers re. Greg Jennings, and his lack of big-time plays in this offense.
There, he had a DB coach for another team analyze Jennings' play against the Vikings, and the coach concluded that Jennings was doing what he has always done: getting separation off the line, but Rodgers is simply progressing through his reads too fast to allow Jennings time to progress his route far enough to get open (be it a slant route, or a curl, deep route, etc.)
In addition, a scout reviewed the Packers games and concluded Aaron was responsible for almost 1/3 of the sacks given up by this team (31 as of Saturday - and Aaron himself was responsible on about 10 of them).
We take it for granted that the problem MUST be MM's playcalling.. but any man would realize that with the lack of time to protect, he needs to have people operate more short-are than have long routes. MM may be many things, but a total buffoon he is not.
MM himself has said that he's reverted back to the 2007 simple game plan calling for a more traditional style WCO.
Either MM is lying and is indeed totally oblivious to the product on the field, or fans are too readily turning to specific solutions that they perceive will be one-stop solutions...
