The Aaron Rodgers performance thread

[HardRightEdge]

It's baffling that some feel Rodgers shouldn't have what every single other elite quarterback in the NFL has...the ability to audible.

You don't waste an all time proven talent that is about to start his 13th season in the NFL by handicapping him.

It's crazy, isn't it? Lookin' for hate in all the wrong places, I guess.

I’m expecting an excellent season from Rodgers. He sounds very comfortable and dialed in. I just expect them to run the ball more often this year, than last. How much more remains to be seen.

Rodgers for MVP?

Rodgers for MVP?

I think it’s possible. I’d say he is certainly a top 10 candidate

MUCH more accurate today. whatever he saw in his tape and corrected made a big difference. don't think he threw one bad ball. still avoiding the middle of the field and keyed on Adams too much but if the other team can't stop it you keep going there.

All Rodgers haters need to be thrown off a building for their stupidity!!!

So I guess he isn't regressing or ignoring MLF's O anymore. lololol.

I kinda wondered if his play would improve with a full year in MLF's offense under his belt but AR hasn't looked that good in 2+ years.

he regressed last year and resisted change. this year he reportedly had a great camp. today he was much more accurate. the O did change from the first half to the second. the second looked more like last year. my problem with rodgers isn't his skills. it's his contract/cap-hit (especially beyond this season) and attitude the last 2-3 years. he had a great game today.

Nah you're moving the goal post. But that's nothing new.

prove it. i've been consistent. since his injuries and contract his stats have suffered. his attitude towards mccarthy in the end is well documented. acting like he did the Packers a favor by accepting a massive $33.5m/yr contract hit me the wrong way. his resistance to MLF's O isn't argueable. i've consistently said he's still good but his contract has held the team back. now there's the covid affect on top of it. he played very well today. his best day in a long time. that doesn't change anything. next year he counts $36m against a cap that might be over $20 million lower than this year.

While I never liked the idea of paying that high a price for Rodgers, it is unfortunately one of those things you have to do if you want the king QB. If he continues playing like this all year, I'd say it was worth it.

quit looking at the goal posts

That might be the best I've seen Rodgers since 2016. He looked like his old MVP self.

 

[XPack]

Wonder if this resurgence means we've wasted our first pick!

 

[HardRightEdge]

2,943 posts and counting when all that was needed was some smelling salts and a slap in the face. Not for him, mind you.

I was thinking 2014

 

[red4tribe]

Yeah, or 2014. I guess I was thinking of his hot stretch at the end of 2016, though that season wasn't as good as 2014 or 2011.

Could be a big part of what's pushing him, motivating him. But you can't draw too many conclusions from one game.

Maybe that was the indirect benefit of that pick, it lit a fire under Rodgers ***?

Anyway, Rodgers sucks, we should trade him for a conditional 6th.

Well, as I said in other threads, some posters simply can't think for themselves and get their so-called knowledge about QB play switching or audibles from the usual talking heads. They also believed that clown from Bleacher Report who made everything up in his article.

More like RELAXed after seeing what that competition looks like.

You know, Rodgers met the Dalai Lama a while back and I got to thinking he might have met up with a Peruvian shaman when he was down that way in February. Maybe he was promised complete consciousness on his death bed. If so, he's got that going for him.

If we continue to run the ball like this against other teams AR will be even more lethal.

So did rodgers overthrow or under throw?

majority know the answer you just won't admit it. It's all over media, Sunday night football showed and mentioned it..

Wentz in Philly has practice squad players and it isn't that much of an issue.

Look...He is still the qb I want...but he has to either figure out the issue or adjust his mechanics..

I said it last year...he was having issues...people wanted to blame wr and righlty so..but I saw his was off.

Today, I think everyone could agree rodgers looked like rodgers of old. And if you agree then you probably are thinking last year he was off.

His Passes were on point..where they needed to be..

Swing passes in right spot ( I mentioned swing passes numerous times last year that he couldn't make those)..
