wpr;428903 Thing is I knew the was a mistake in my post I just couldn't see it.

Ah, the irony is both rich and delicious! [rofl]

I know exactly what you mean, though. I can be positive there is an error in an email or text message I'm writing and be simply unable to find it no matter how hard I look, yet I can be randomly thumbing through a thousand-page tome and a missing comma will leap off the page at me.

Occasionally, I'll find typos in things I wrote a decade ago, and it makes me cringe and grind my teeth in shame.

Yes, 100% sarcastic.

And that stat about the Packers OL not allowing a sack in the first 2 seconds or whatever...that’s great. How much of that has Rodgers also contributed to helping with that stat? With his ability to escape pressure & move in the pocket that many here seem to criticize him for...

Don’t get me wrong, sometimes Rodgers does hold the ball too long. But last year he was criticized for all of his throw-aways. This year he’s criticized for holding it too long & taking sacks. He can’t win for losing with some people. Common denominator? Our shitty receivers not getting open.

Porforis;428899Freelancing how? I hear complaints every year about Rodgers, which are valid here?

HE HOLDS THE BALL TOO LONG AND TAKES UNNECCESARY SACKS - Did that happen this week?

HE CHECKS OUT OF RUNS AND TRIES TO FORCE BALLS DEEP - Sorry, how many deep balls did we chuck? Is 28 passes and 23 runs not pretty balanced? Did we not stick with the run fairly consistently all game long without getting away from it for entire drives?

HE IGNORES THE OPEN RECEIVER - I'm sorry, can you please point out a few plays where someone was clearly open and he didn't get the ball out/forced the ball to someone completely blanketed?

HE DOESN'T RUN THE OFFENSE - This is what it comes down to. You have a feeling, reality must be warped to cover this feeling even if it means having to accept that you personally know more about how the offense is designed to be run, what plays are being called, what the scouting reports say, what interactions are happening between coaches and Rodgers than Rodgers.

The receivers were blanketed all day long. Rodgers was getting the ball out fast when receivers were being given 8+ yards of pad. We checked into run more often than we checked out of it. We didn't force the ball deep on bombs. Most of Rodgers' sacks involved an O Lineman pushed backwards directly into his face within two seconds. Rodgers didn't hold onto the ball for 8+ seconds dancing around trying to wait for someone to get open instead of throwing the ball away.

But nope Rodgers still is to blame and "Isn't running the offense".

The checkdown was only there if he would’ve thrown it at the beginning of the play. By the time the routes developed & nobody was open, there was no real good option for a check down.
