Seems like he keeps trying to bomb it down field and has possibly lost a bit if his downfield accuracy therefore missing some big plays

Greg Cosell is really good with his film breakdown. I like his segment on cowherd.

Dude knows his stuff. I always listens to the days when he's on the Ross Tucker podcast.

It looks like Rodgers is putting too much faith in his arm strength the last couple of seasons. His feet weren't set on the interception he threw Sunday night and that's not the first time I've seen him miss throws doing that.

His footwork looks like this a lot these days...

Ive watched the Packers more than any other team besides the Saints. I've found that in recent years when the offense is struggling or a receiver faces blanket coverage, Rodgers will deliberately underthrow a bomb by 10 yards and get a cheap 40 yard DPI when the receiver comes back to the ball. It's so obvious and frequent now that has to be part of the game plan.

It's the biggest reason why I don't believe DPI should only be a spot foul if you are purposely taking out a WR because you got burned.

No surprise this is Brandon Harris' favorite QB.

Munn - Rodgers' game declines
Upton - Verlander's game declines

Mickey has an opinion

Holy shite are Packers fans spoiled.

31 TDs to 8 INTs is considered Rodgers "down year". Think about that.


Fair statement, but there is also concern over the trend. Last year we were pegging the worse play to not having his deep threat in Nelson. Now that Jordy is back, a lot of the same stuff is still on display. They've looked shitty in both of the first two games.

People were trying to comfort themselves when they barely beat Jacksonville by saying, well, the jags are supposed to be really good this year. But then last weekend happened...Pack looked like crap again and the jags got throttled.

Let's slow the roll on that a bit. Since 2010, the Packers are 10-3-1 against the vikings.

Wait, so you're saying PI should only be a 15 yard penalty if a defender tackles a receiver on a ball that he was going to catch?

I'm not really sure that would be good for the game.

How many teams would trade for Rodgers in a heartbeat?

Teams would trade for Carr and Winston in a heartbeat too, doesn't mean much in regards to their current play.

There should be intentional and unintentional PI.

Right now, they are making slight contact a 40 yard penalty. It is ridiculous, especially when the refs call it when feet get tangled.

If a defender form tackles someone, it should be a spot foul.

Nope. They went private for those ratings to teams and networks. Costs thousands now

I figured. I lost mine after the 14 season. I used to love messing around with those stats.

ETA: I just checked. Look like it's available to the public again. $20 for player grades.

ETA2: I don't think it includes signature stats, though. Only available with premium.

Yea, that is just there 1-100 scale. They release a lot of scores for free every week anyways.

I mainly liked the signature stats

Same. Not paying $20 for the number rankings. I liked the other stuff.

I think a lot of their woes are because they have abandoned Lacy in the running game. He is 12th in the league in YPC but only has 26 carries.

He didnt have a great year in 2015, but this year he hasnt done bad. They just dont give him the ball.
