Zero2Cool;356954When I say we're spoiled to go from Brett to Aaron, you jump my case, but it's okay for your co-workers? I see how you are! [lol]


I think it's okay to be somewhat concerned over how Aaron Rodgers has played the last 14 games. I wouldn't for a second say I want him benched, in fact, I just traded Derek Carr (& Deangelo Williams) for Aaron Rodgers (& Jeremy Langford) in the OFFICIAL PACKERSHOME Fantasy League.

My only beef is the same thing I've been saying since the Chiefs game last season. He's missing open guys consistently and is not stepping into his throws. He's looking to scramble instead of looking to dump it off.

QB's as we all know have reads and progressions. If you know you're getting tanked, you dump it off shallow the drag route WR/TE/RB or whomever.

I don't remember jumping your case about that, but OK?

I'm not saying that it's wrong to be concerned about Aaron Rodgers or that it's wrong to want him benched. That's fine, and a loose (although a very loose argument at this point, imo) argument can be made for that. I'm just putting things into perspective from some of my intelligent NFL fan coworkers. If any Packers fans have such a problem with Aaron Rodgers, then advocate for his ass to be traded ASAP, because I'm certain multiple other teams would love to have him.

In a way, I almost want it to happen. Not because I have a huge problem with him like some, but just because I think he can easily still be the best QB in the game under the right situation. I'm not sure this is the right situation for him anymore, and I don't know that it will be while McCarthy is the head coach (which will probably be for a long time, unfortunately). He has been one of my favorite QBs to watch. His physical tools are still there, but he might need a different style of more aggressive coaching to bring at the best in him at this point in his career, and I think there are some coaches in the league that could do that. It's always tough to see a great talent wasted, but it happens pretty often in the NFL.

I don't have too much of a problem with what Lang said because I think it's at the point with Aaron where it can't get much worse so if getting called out has a chance to shake something loose it's worth it

I don't think you were one of the many who were. I thought you knew you weren't and well it was a funny fail there. My bad.

Aaron was famous for saying if you're open you get the ball. As long as we get back to that, I'm sure we'll all go back to being happy campers!

Yeah now it's if you are one of the 3 wr and there isn't a defender within a few yards of you you may get the ball in a place you can catch it
