[QUOTE="PFanCan, post: 695237, member: 1989"] You are the "ying" to Rodell's "yang". Though many posters ignore the positives that you see, you tend to ignore the negatives that they see. I think I tend to bounce around- at times am overly optimistic and eagerly grab the green-and-gold goggles, while at other times I get frustrated and tend towards being a negative Nancy. I do see the point that many are making with regards to Rodgers tossing bombs on plays when it would seem to be better to play a higher odds game of controlling the clock and moving the sticks. For example, on the second-to-last series by the Packers: [LIST] [*][SIZE=4][B][SIZE=3][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 255)][I]1st and 10 at GB 27[/I] [I](7:27 - 4th) (Shotgun) A.Rodgers pass incomplete deep left to D.Adams.[/I][/COLOR][/SIZE][/B][/SIZE] [*][SIZE=3][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 255)][I]2nd and 10 at GB 27[/I] [I](7:21 - 4th) (Shotgun) T.Montgomery left tackle to GB 31 for 4 yards (A.Amos).[/I][/COLOR][/SIZE] [*][SIZE=3][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 255)][I]3rd and 6 at GB 31[/I] [I](6:35 - 4th) (Shotgun) A.Rodgers scrambles right guard to GB 35 for 4 yards (J.Timu).[/I][/COLOR][/SIZE] [*][SIZE=3][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 255)][I]4th and 2 at GB 35[/I][/COLOR][/SIZE] [*][SIZE=3][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 255)][I](5:55 - 4th) (Punt formation) J.Schum punts 52 yards to CHI 13, Center-B.Goode. C.LeBlanc to CHI 21 for 8 yards (M.Hyde).[/I][/COLOR][/SIZE] [/LIST] This series was really important to control the clock and keep our defense, which just gave up two quick TDs, off of the field for a while. Move the sticks at least once or twice-- hopefully, score. But, Aaron comes out throwing deep on first down. Two plays and 8 yards later, we punt. That series was very disappointing and gave up any chance of grabbing the momentum away from the Chicago offense. A deep pass on first down was not my preference and I was quite upset with that attempt. I groaned as Aaron threw it. I think this is what some posters are frustrated about. I can see their point.
