You know nothing about football if you call Rodgers a game manager. In his first season as a starter he was the league leader in 40+ yard passes. We threw the ball over 100 times more than we ran the ball. Rodgers threw for 4000 yards. Game managers don't throw for 4000 yards.

They don't know how to win games either, the defenses have to do it for them...which..er...didn't happen this year.

Wasn't that the Ted Thompson and Mike McCarthy model?

Manage games and let the defense keep you in it?

Winning QB's win games.

When you have a running game and O-line like this one though, you don't hve alot of different choices than going to the pass with a QB that can move around. We're lucky we have these amazing receivers that can get open, or Rodgers wouldn't have made it to the end of the season.

Oh, and I agree on getting a great defense, look at the Titans or the Dilfer led Ravens. We need a good defense. If we can get that, combined with this passing game, we're SB contenders imo.

Nope, winning QB's help win games. Winning QB's can do nothing about how crappy their defense plays in close games.

Aaron Rodgers is a game manager. I thought that's what you wanted?

Ah, yes, your screen name is so right. The pack of trolls will always be back.

Your calumny is absurd on its face. I've never stated anywhere that I want a game manager. I want an aggressive quarterback who doesn't make mistakes, and that's exactly what we have in Aaron Rodgers. If you want to see game managers, go to the statistics pages on NFL.com and sort by TD passes -- look in the range of 15 to 25. Those are the game managers, QBs with less than 20 TD passes (many of whom are in the playoffs, by the way).

Aaron Rodgers is the closest thing to the classic pocket passer this crop of QBs has, with the added bonus that he is mobile. I got exactly what I wanted in Aaron Rodgers, and I am positive that my confidence in Rodgers will be fully vindicated in years to come.

And 3rd in touchdown passes

That's the main stat there - production.

3rd in TD passes says a lot. I'm very proud of Aaron and know he will do great in '09.

The problem is not our O, it's our D. Our O scores points. Our D needs to stop allowing so many.

beast (13h) : You saw only 4,201 of my mocks? 🥺 I think that means you missed more than half of them 😢
dfosterf (16h) : Does anyone know what Lambeau field improvements got put on hold? My guess would be for the 2025 draft
Zero2Cool (19h) : It's like listen, you made 4,201 mocks, no shit.
Zero2Cool (19h) : Cuz during the draft "I had them mocked there!" as if it's amazing.
Zero2Cool (19h) : They're fun to do once in awhile. It's people who think they are "content" that annoy me.
dfosterf (19h) : Against tbd
dfosterf (19h) : Answer to your question is yes, it's a Thursday, will be the Chiefs aga
dfosterf (19h) : Luckily for all concerned, I don't post them. I did one, but that was like 25 mocks ago
Zero2Cool (19h) : NFL 2024 gonna start Sept 5th isn't it???
Zero2Cool (19h) : Ugh... kids these days!
dfosterf (19h) : I'm gonna go do some more mock draft hell instead 🤪
Zero2Cool (19h) : Did we do one of those prediction threads yet for 2024 season?
dfosterf (19h) : In my city, they are playing the nimby game, in order to keep some railroad tracks vs. 2 professional sports teams and a concert venue.
dfosterf (19h) : And/Or a city council, of which I haven't seen a good one in a very long time
dfosterf (20h) : That sounds like a Mayor, not a city.
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers halt scheduled 80mil upgrade of stadium until lease agreement talks are restarted
Zero2Cool (26-Mar) : City of Green Bay puts Packers' Lambeau Field lease talks on hold
buckeyepackfan (26-Mar) : Packers 1 of 3 teams to vote no on new kickoff rule.

Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Yeah, challenge until you are incorrect twice.
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Fining them is the goal, per the people who made the rule anyway.
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still waiting on the kickoff rule changes. Did hear yesterday that the touchback proposal will now be the 30 yard line, not the 35
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Probably speed of game issues with your proposal
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Hopefully the refs don't get in the habit of throwing flags on this
beast (25-Mar) : I think when it comes to Challenges should get two strikes, so unlimited challenges as long as they keep winning them, but 2 wrong then done
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Still subject to the fines etc
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Yes, I should have been more specific. Also, they are now saying it would be a 15 yard penalty. That makes more sense .
beast (25-Mar) : Simply fined in the week to follow
beast (25-Mar) : I agree with one NFL official, it'll probably be like some of the helmets hits, not really called by the refs on the field but simply fined
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Hip drop is not. Super confusing. Referees job is harder
Zero2Cool (25-Mar) : Swivel hip drop is banned
dfosterf (25-Mar) : The hip drop enforcement will be in the form of fines, etc. Not flags
dfosterf (25-Mar) : A major foul will be enforced on the offense if there are offsetting penalties in a change of possession situation
dfosterf (25-Mar) : Teams will receive a 3rd challenge if 1 was successful. Previously, it took 2
