So basically if it weren't for AR not throwing to young receivers he might have been pretty good and put up some decent numbers over the years.

I don't think there is any doubt (in my mind), that Rodgers wasn't given enough weapons in his final 4 or so years in GB. As much as I rip on Rodgers, the off the field guy, I will always say that he did more with less and one of the greatest QB's to play the game.

ETA: Really? The name of the chancellor of Germany's National Socialist party during the 30's and 40's is blocked?
Just say "Adolph" we will know who you are talking about. There hasn't been a single person named that in the entire world since his death.

Agree. I can't imagine Bo Melton having a 100+ yard game with #12 under center.

Love will throw to anyone who is open.
And that's one big reason the Cowboys should be worried. It's fun to get perspectives from the other team's fans and my bro-in-law is unfortunately a huge Cowboy fan. He's also the QB/RB coach for the NCAA DII champ Harding Bisons.

We've been talking all week and while he thinks his guys will win, he says the one thing that worries him is that our offense has so many ways to attack you that you can't possibly defend against all of it. He said most teams have 1 or 2 guys that if you shut them down or limit them, you break their entire offense and that's not the case with the Packers. He says we run a Hydra offense. Cut off one head and two more pop up in its place LOL.

We saw this happen quite a few times when Rodgers only had Davante.

And you are absolutely right on that. We're in such a unique situation right now, having 6 WRs on the depth chart who are all ballers. But the question to me is, did Rodgers really only have Adams, or did the rest of our young WRs only have Rodgers? I know if I was a rookie WR during Rodgers and Adams last 5 years in GB, I would be begging not to be drafted by Green Bay.

I love that Rodgers put up 26 points against the best defense in the league in 2020, with an offense that lost it's best running back in the first half, was missing the best LT in the league, and featured one good receiver and HE'S the choker. Says more about those complaining than it does about Rodgers' actual performance.
Yeah I think Rodgers was responsible for more than his share of playoff losses. The 2014 NFCCG loss to the Hags was not one of them.

That distinction goes to their "play not to lose" HC Mike McCarthy. He let up on the gas with what he and a lot of people thought was a comfortable lead. The late pic should have been run back further instead of sliding, and the offense should have done all it could to score 7 more points. I think they had two straight 3 and out series after that pic, and the Hags capitalized on it.

IMO, that was the most painful loss in Packer playoff history. But Rodgers had little to nothing to do with it.

Did Ali accuse high profile people of associating with pedophiles? "Apply to all" is great in theory, and an ideal that should be striven for, but it's certainly not the way the world works.
Not pedophiles. But he called them warmongerers and racists. And he accused Ernie Terrell of being an Uncle Tom ***** just because he was dignified and respectful to the media and the status quo.

Exactly correct. For the Cowboys, they need big games from Pollard and Lamb. With Green Bay, it could be almost anyone.

Why wouldn't I? It's true.
We found out today what Disney thinks of Kimmel. After stating yesterday that Aaron would not return as a guest this season, guess who showed up on Pat McAfee's show today?

Pretty impressive flex by McAfee.

Adams was the only WR the Packers had in Rodgers last few years who got open. Does that mean Love would have only thrown to Adams as well?

Only half joking there. I'd take any one of the 2023 WRs over any of the Packers WRs from 2017- 2021 not named Adams. Well, I'd probably take Lazard over Heath and Melton but thats about it.

Well he didnt really have 100 yards with Love either...but I get your point.

37 yards of his 105 total came on the pass from the backup in garbage time. Good for about 35%

His rating vs the Hawks was under 60 and he threw 2 ints


The Def gifted the offense 4 int and 5 total turn overs and all they got was 22 points

After 1st q the offense went dead

This was a total team loss and rodgers and the offense can be blamed

I remember sitting in a bar with the Packers up two scores with five minutes to go. The lady next to me says "We're going to the Super Bowl!" I remember turning to her and saying "This game isn't over, yet." She said "Oh, shut up. They're gonna win."
Maybe if I had just kept my mouth shut, they would have won. I blame me.

The Seachickens needed everything to go right in the final four minutes. And it did.
