.......with a hobbled QB.
Is it the QB himself or MM, getting/staying away from the running game?

I think that with Rodgers unable to take snaps under center, that it limits the types of running plays he can call. As many faults as MM has, I think he understands that a good running game makes Rodgers doubly dangerous.
I'm not sure anyone knows, except for MM and AR themselves.
Aaron Rodgers can only take snaps from pistol or gun due to the knee injury
Over 90% of Aaron Jones carries at UTEP came from pistol or gun formation.
Aaron Jones is the best RB in GB thatâs also incredibly comfortable with the formation GB is forced to play due to Aaron Rodgers injury.
Aaron Jones averaged 7 yards per carry yesterday.
Aaron Jones carried the ball 6 times.
**** everything right now
Every year MM claims he's going to run the ball more, and every year, jack sch!t happens in that regard.
what we don't know if it's AR checking with 'me' or mc stupidface doing it
When you have a lead you can RTFB. But then fans complain MM took his foot off the gas and played too conservative. When you play from behind, like yesterday, you have to PTFB.
And if you PTFB you have to CTFB
And then YACTFB.
Jones looks like a player. Dude is explosive and shifty and makes plays. Itâs puzzling why he didnât get more opportunities yesterday. Iâm sure MM will get that fixed.
Maybe MM has an issue with kids that smoke dope.
Or he's just a dope.
Why can't it be both?
MM seems like the type who would want to show loyalty to the guys who have been available, not the guy who was unavailable due to a dumb suspension.
Next season when Iâm the new Packers coach, Iâm running Jones until our opponents prove they can stop him.....and Iâm telling AR not to audible out of the run until our opponents prove they can stop him.
Run the ball and keep our defense off the field....because our defense has been a hodgepodge of suck since 2011.
Speaking of stubborn, MM has a definite philosophy about rushing, and he sticks to it, come hell or high water.
It's a rarity to have 20+ rushes (including ARod scrambles), and yds/attempt or total rushing yards mean nothing. Success be damned.
Yes, this is ARod's team and we all want to see him air it out. I also understand running the same play multiple times to 'set-up' another play or looking to get a specific matchup. I also know MM had said he was going to limit Jones' carries and that makes sense on some level.
So Jones is averaging 7 yards/rush, Williams is right behind him at 6/per, and even TY is averaging 4/per. Your All-World QB is gimpy, the right side of the OL can't block my Granny even if they double-teamed her, AND we're deep at TE.
Why in the world do you NOT run it? We had 17 rush attempts; imagine if that were 25. Or 28. Statistically that could've been another 50-65 yards of offense...wonder what difference that may have made?
