[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 591091"] Rodger's deep ball proficiency and his remarkable recollection of specific plays have been amply reported in the past. The interesting development, largely unreported, is the Packers eschewing the deep ball in recent weeks. As noted previously in other threads, Rodgers did not throw a ball that traveled more than 15 yards past the line of scrimmage against the Lions. Against Tampa, by my count there were only 2 throws past 20 yards, with the longest under 25 yds. Was this development intended to get the ball away quickly to protect Rodgers from getting hit and aggravating the calf injury? Was Rodgers having trouble throwing the deep ball in practice with that banged up wheel? Or was it a rediscovered appreciation for West Coast principles, running 4 in combo routes against 4 or 5 defenders under the safeties for high percentage passes? For me, this is the most interesting story line going forward against Dallas and particularly Seattle. [/QUOTE]
