[QUOTE="Kitten, post: 414893, member: 2692"] It's not just Rogers, although we notice things more with him because so much of the focus is on him. Like we'd notice a stain of a white t-shirt where you wouldn't notice one as much on a red shirt. If people consider the QB to be the most important position in the game, then surely we'd notice when a QB isn't performing at the level we've come to expect. I think to some degree our expectations of him are a bit high. Not that he can't meet them, we just have to remember that he, like any player, is human and he has his off days. But I've also noticed that it's not only Rodgers who is off, it's pretty much the whole offensive line. It's not what it was at the beginning to middle of the season. Finley has dropped a number of passes for example. It's the same thing with the defense people noticed at the beginning of the year. It wasn't just one player, it was the unit. Where the D just needed time, I think the offense is just banged up. They got some new guys in there and it's going to take them a game or two to fit in. I'm also going to make a case for exhaustion. It's hard to keep up the high level that they play for 2 games in a row, let alone 13.
