    It's too bad Rodgers has some talent left. His mind left the league several years ago.

    It's as simply as this, Smith has to allow Rodgers free reign on audibles. Rodgers has seen it all and done it all. If he feels the offense is his to run, he'll perform better than mindlessly handing off the ball on 3rd and five with the other team having little fear of a shrewd audible to WR on an island with so-so DB, or a TE running a seam route on a 3rd down blitz for a 25 yard catch and run gain.

    If Smith holds his ground against an HOF QB, then Smith needs to be fired...MID-season
    ...or Tomlin needs to show some balls (rare occurence) and tell Smith Rodgers will be allowed to audible, but Smith can discuss with Rodgers why he audibled (what did he see), but not question the decision.

    It will come down to the play of our offensive line if Aaron is successful or not.

    The stats may back you, but remember, he and his offense were on the field alot. Couldn't be stopped, that skewd defensive production stats.

    The AFC was always a distant second place talent/scheme-wise.

    My memory of the Dolphins was a great QB, wide-open offense, WRs that meshed well with Marino and a solid, but under-sized defense, that wasn't ever asked to win games...until the AFC championships and SB...and they were shown to be quite mediocre.

    The biggest issue was the mediocre AFC itself, masked a mediocre defense, they just out-scored teams whenever they needed.
