[QUOTE="Chicocheese, post: 393586, member: 4187"] Call me OCD, but I have a thing for people's stats. Particularly the Packers' QB. Aaron is one all-around awesome player, and I hate to see blemishes on his passing stats. In this case it is 2 of his 3 INT. One could make the argument that all of a QB's INT are a "receiver's mistake" but in Aaron's case it is true for these 2: In week 4 I believe it was, Aaron threw a pass to James Jones, the ball hit James square in the hands, then ricocheted up and over his head, being caught by a Bronco (I think it was the Broncos.) just before the ball hit the ground. Week 6, a similar play happens but this time Greg Jennings is the receiver who drops the pass (which I was stunned by, because I have nick-named Jennings the "Football Vacuum" because he seems to catch pretty much every pass that he gets his hands on...like his first TD catch in SB XLV! WOW, it still amazes me.) The only true blue interception that Aaron has thrown was against the Bears in week 3, when Urlacher gaffled the bad pass. What could these "dropped ball interceptions" or "deflected interceptions" be called? Should the negative mark be placed on the QB record, or the receiver's? Rodgers/the QB did his job, and got the ball to the receiver cleanly, and in Jennings'/ the WR's case if he would have caught the ball no INT would have been possible. It is unfair for the QB to be blamed for those interceptions in my eyes. Thoughts? Like a said, this may just be my OCD flaring up. All in all I am STOKED about Rodgers' and the Packers' performance as a whole and stats don't win games, teams do...but this just irks me. [/QUOTE]
