I came across this on a bears blog and thought I would share it with everyone.
"I have been watching A. Rodgers fro the last two seasons. Alot of Packer Fans were upset early to mid season. Defense was having major problems, the o-line was pathetic, and A. Rodgers was getting sacked, Jenning wasn't nearly the impact player he was a year ago, alot of reasons they trailing the wild card race for for most of the season and not challenging for the division.
See the problem is that A. Rodgers doesn't take any chances at all. He is very M. Bulger like. Statistically they they have good games.
In the first season A. Rodgers best pass play, the roll out right around mid field which he would take shots for Driver, Jenning on a deep post pattern, which he could throw the ball between the receiver at the end-zone, and just over the pattern if he was nervous, it was a very safe play for a young QB...
But all season long in 2009, he had to wait for his recivers to be completely open before makes his throws.... this waiting lead to sacks.. and more sacks and more sacks....
How ironic he played it safe all season, then self destruct in the playoff game , wasn't it first pass play of the game an interception, because he got nervous on the big stage and then force the ball on short throw while scrambling. see this playing it safe hurt the packers in the end, because when he needed to froce the ball, he couldn't do it.
My comparisons to M. Bulger is right on, very accurate...WIll A. Rodgers ever be able to step out of his shell and become the player that B. farve was? Farve didn't screw around, he was going to take every chance he could to beat you.....
A. Rodgers still has injury concerns as well, I hope I don't jinx him, but all these sacks are starting pile up on him, that thats the new statistic they keep track off for players, is how mnay hits and carries players get,a nd how shortens there carreer or season to the next season?
I read some-where that Rodgers can't make it through the up-coming season the Lions will finish ahead of the Packers...
Pretty scarey isn' *** Packer fans?
Cutler is still better prospect than Rodgers will ever be, If ther was contest to see who could throw the farthest, accuracy, velocity etc... Cutler would beat him out by a hair every time in every contest....
Now some might want to compare the recent seasons, shoot, Cutler threw aq ton interceptions, but not all his fault, and considering the situation of coming into a new program compared to Rodgers steady in a program for a few years, you can't compare apples to apples....
but I will say the Bears reciving corps had its best production in nearly 8 years, Cutler still will be pushing 30 tds seaosn in and season out......
This might be Drivers last year, lets see how Rodgers handles adversary with one good receiver!"
