Y’all keep doubting @aaronrodgers12 I’m not going to. The @packers QB is still the discount double check monster to me... @getupespn @packereverywhere @acmepackingco @robdemovsky @pgpackersnews pic.twitter.com/lZf6Y41Azr

Worth the click.
Great job by Orlovsky breaking down the mental prowess of Rodgers.
What year do we draft a QB high? Rodgers still playing good but inconsistent. Doesn’t look like he’s enjoying the game that much these days. We may have a couple years to go but it would be nice to have some time to groom a QB.
2021.
Posted this in +/- but probably more appropriate here—
It could be that for the first time in his playing career, Rodgers is second-guessing himself. Over-throws, off-targets, holding the ball, bad body language... it seems to speak to a guy who isn’t confident in what he sees and/or his ability to get it there. Two INTs in two games? When did we last see that? Every guy playing into 35+ has to make changes to their play to play more with his head than his once-great physical ability. It seems Rodgers’ mind has not yet grasped that his physical ability is not at its peak any more. He looks so surprised when a throw is off, then mad, and then like “what the h***?” It’s not that it’s totally gone, but the consistency is. It would not surprise me to see Rodgers play better next year after he has a chance to reflect on the year and his play and make adjustments, especially to his mindset. Those guys open 5-10-15 yards away may become a lot more attractive than the guy 30 yards downfield. Of course, I hope he does that this week and comes out in two weeks on fire!
This game, and especially the dreadful performance on deep throws and sideline routes, has to encourage MLF to go full-bore next year on his offensive scheme. That Shananhan/McVay scheme uses a lot of pre-snap motion, play action, routes out of bunch formation, quick passes over middle.
With our running game, we can have a rhythm, move the chains offense that can be more successful---today the only time we moved the ball consistently was doing that.

Total of 28 incompletions, 16 of which were overthrows.

Better be the 2020 draft.
55 attempts is not usually coming from the winning team.
I remember Favre’s reaction when we drafted Rodgers and not wanting to tutor him though Favre had been talking retirement for several years. I wonder how Rodgers will be?
I believe Mariota is a FA after this season; I wouldn't mind him being signed as the #2 QB. He would be a nice insurance policy if the post-AR era happens sooner-than-later
If Green Bay doesn't make an effort to sign Mariotta....well, there you go. LeFluer was his OC.
Any draft lap fallers this year?
Rodgers was fucking horrible today. That’s it. Let’s see what happens in two weeks.

Until he wasn't.
19 of his last 32 with 2 TDs and 2 FGs.
Rodgers is kicking field goals??? Now that is elite!

Some clunkers in the greatest 2nd half ever played too.

Giving him too much credit unless he is expected to play OK for just half a game.
Not expected to. But that's not the discussion.
AR was bad, really bad for the 1st forty-ish minutes today. Then he made the throws and drove the team for 20 pts and the win.

Prepare to be disappointed.
Some perspective on today’s game.
Just rewatched the @packers tape

-if I had to be on a QB to get bonkers hot in playoffs-it’s @AaronRodgers12
-everyone thinks he played bad today (I did watching in moment). He had 8. EIGHT-absolutely insane/elite/ridiculous throws today.
-close misses can be made plays quickly
Dan is wrong. It was a horrible game for Rodgers.
Packers supposedly treated today as a playoff game and struggled to beat a hapless Lion team. Love to believe that AR will be able to flip the switch in the postseason but that strikes me as a healthy dose of wishful thinking.
I get the feeling Dan is a big AR fan anyway
I'd like to know which 8 plays Dan O. is referencing.
Is he speaking of completions? Near misses? Both?

Then I suggest you take a large amount of cash & bet it all on the Packers opponent in 2 weeks.
Bullshit. They treated the the Viking game like a playoff game. This game. They were sleep walking.
MLF said they were treating it like a playoff game. Don't think the team got the message until halftime.

I'm thinking TD and sideline passes to Lazard and Adams (2 each), maybe the screen to Jones?
Off the top of my head.
Rodgers: 17 passes 20+ yards downfield yesterday

Most we've ever seen
Either a flawed game plan from MLF or AR going sandlot. Neither one is a positive.
Was it Dan who said last week that The Pack was 4 or 6 plays away?
I think we know the passing game as a whole is flawed. I'd rather think it's more of an issue with the team as a whole instead of saying one guy sucks and is the reason for all of it. Makes zero sense.
Here's the other thing to be hopeful for in the playoffs, new unseen schemes. Everybody is taking the gloves off and since Mayo has been so inventive patching this passing game together it could be really fun what he comes up with.

He's got his lunch in there.
FWIW. In his post game presser AR said they planned for deep throws. The thinking was that DET would try to "defend the sticks". There were open plays deep. Rodgers missed on 15 by my count, had 1 INT, and the OPI on WWWWJD.
AR also said he felt good on a lot of those throws... clearly something for him to assess.

Really seemed to me like the plan for this game was to work on timing on the deep routes. Then for one drive they decided to take what the defense was giving them and then right back to the old "plan". It was really bizarre compared to the rest of 2019.
