    This may be the most patronizing straw man argument post I've ever seen. But hey thanks for educating us with your vast football knowledge.

    Something was fishy about that play. I mean NFL coaches can’t really be that dumb. I’m not sure you could find 5 knowledgeable fans in the universe that would say that was a really good call.

    You must be referring to game day posters. All the regular posters here seem students of the game....:read: .....:icon razz:

    Dont disagree with any of his breakdown but Arod is the biggest reason they are in position for a division title.

    He had a bad game yesterday with some very questionable decision making but he’s been more good than bad.

    Everything you said was true but what you are missing is that Rodgers threw the ball with 1 second of receiving the snap, there were no progressions no reads, this was all determined with the play call and confirmed pre-snap that MVS will be 1 on 1 with their best CB. Why Rodgers thinks or thought that MVS could win this matchup is the mystery. Think how great a pump fake there would have been!! Gainwell as we know was wide open a quick pump fake to MVS and Gainwell could have strolled into the endzone. The 3 attempts to MVS were bad choices, its that simple hell even Muth was more open on that last play if you want to look for the lack of progression.

    That’s not entirely true. A bunch of our losses earlier in the season were directly attributed to poor offensive play. A sizeable amount of that was poor play by Rodgers. We got a couple great weeks from him recently, but Sunday he largely reverted back to early season play. He wasn’t helped by losing our two best man beating receivers. Losing Washington didn’t help either.

    Sorry man, but this is an epic failure on your part. Trying to use season total points for and against to defend Rodgers? I guess thats what yourenndoing

    Not defending anyone.

    A Few Good Games + A Few Bad Games = Average

    What part of average for either side don't you see?

    I did some work for a while in the pan handle of Florida on the Alabama line in swamp land

    Stores there did not have that sign

    Only place I worked where I had to watch for alligators and boa constrictors while walking from my car to the factory

    As I said during the game day thread. You can go look. I didn't like going for it, but like I said it wasn't a bad play call. It was a bad Qb choice.

    I will not point out who. Whether people believe me or not, I don't like being mean.
    Like I said. It's from stuff that I read on the board.

    I have caught alligators by hand. Truth. Not big ones, but up to 4 feet. I've seen a many I wouldn't have even step close to. Nothing like walking a rice field, and gazing across, and seeing a 10-14 foot one sunning itself. I had one I fed ho hos to by the pump we got water with out of the reservoir. It would show up every day at lunch.

    I put agree, but I'm not sure he was the biggest reason, but he definitely was a part of that reason.

    Who decided to sign a 42 year old Qb coming off a down year?

    QUOTE="S.T.D, post: 1500623, member: 3877"]Nothing. I'm trying to teach some people something. From what I read a lot on the board some people think that when a play is called they think that the Qb can only throw to a certain target. I see it every game day thread.
    Example: they can run a play with 4 routes, and one route will be wide open, but the Qb throws a different route, and they will say, that's a dumb play call. LoL. Like the coaches said, hey Qb, only throw this route. LoL
    At least 15 people a game say these things, and I'm just trying to help them understand that's not how football works.[/QUOTE]


    >>> Well -- who called this play on 4th and 1, passing up a FG, and going for a bomb to a WR that has not done well this year?


    Yeah, that play has a greater chance than running for a yard or a short pass. NOT. Dumb @ss call.


    Once Tomlin is out, then players will feel more comfortable questioning his decision making.
