Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 881728">Actually, when Rodgers was Rodgers the first time around he'd miss on swing passes with some regularity, one of my pet peeves in the early years.  That also has a lot to do with the guy he's throwing to releasing at the right angle.Also, if you didn't see MVS running much crisper routes you were not paying attention.Anyway, I observed last year that Rodgers was a bit off throwing from certain platforms.  Still a great QB.  I couldn't put my finger on it--I thought it might be the plate in his shoulder or the knee still gimped up affecting certain throws.As it turns out, according to one of the game commentators, it was leg strength.  Rodgers told him that he saw on tape that he wasn't throwing left off a good platform.  Right was no problem.  So he worked on leg strength in the offseason doing squats.  There's the old addage about pitchers and QBs--age gets the legs before the arm.Another factor is he had all day to throw against a sketchy group of CBs and not much of a pass rush.  He didn't even have to extend plays but a couple of times thanks to better route running and those CBs.  Let's keep that jersey clean all year.</blockquote>
