Sometimes I think if you did a poll of PH members, we'd have about 90% glass-half-full types and about 10% glass-half-empty types.
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.

Rodgers throws the ball ridiculously fast but if you notice a WR on this team rarely catches the ball over the middle and doesn't have time to react (get down, juke, etc...) before a defender lights them up. That's because Rodgers gets the ball into the WRs hands before the defenders have a chance to react fast enough to break up the ball. It likely leads to some drops but it's worth it for all the extra completions, YAC, and safety that are gained because it's thrown so hard.

But Starks caught one and got lit up right away big time on one play, which a few play later led to another check down where Starks was wide open (but didn't know it) and prepared to take a hard hit before realizing he's not getting hit and taking off, but that delay possibly took away a first down. Happened on a couple of play too. Your right Rodgers is normally very good at that but he was off with that against Tampa.

I'd like to see Janis too but I think Adams will come around-always tough for rookie receivers to find consistency. I really think they need to make a concerted effort to get Quarles and Rodgers more oppurtunity. They've used the tight ends so little this year it would be a great change of pace-especially with so many 2 safety looks we're getting. Unless I'm mistaken, Rodgers really looks like he's got great hands and I don't worry about Quarles over the middle.
I think we'll be seeing a whole lot more of the TE's over the next couple of weeks.

I think he's still not used to the SPEED that Rodgers throws the ball. It gets to him faster then he has ever seen.
Once he conquers that, he will be a big plus.
If Rodgers keeps the faith in him, and lets him know he will still go to him, I think he will be fine.
Remember Jordy Nelson's drop of one last week that hit him right in the hands. It happens to the best.

The drop Davante had on that long pass across the middle was another, had a due draped all over him and another defender nearby and the ball went though his hands but had he caught it he would have had enough time to get down.
