And carrying that a step further.. I care less the name on the back of the jersey throwing those TD's.. as long as the jersey in Green and Gold with that Packer logo.

Well, I agree there too. On the other hand, if Flynn is throwing the touchdowns, that means one of two things: a) We have a dominant lead and Rodgers was taken out for his own safekeeping -- obviously a great scenario; or b) Rodgers has gone down with an injury and Flynn is stepping in, which is less than an optimal scenario. In that regard, I'd prefer that the name on the jersey is Rodgers.

Or, for that matter, Driver. I think it would be fun to see some plays like we saw in the Cardinals game on Sunday night. One of their receivers toss a beautiful downfield pass that was unfortunately called back by a penalty.

I understand what you guys are saying. Of course the most important statistic is a win, and however that's achieved is fine. That's rhetorical and obvious. Of course my main concern is that the Packers win. However, that still doesn't change the fact that I want Jennings to succeed and do well. He's one of my favorite players. If I said "I don't give a rats ass if Jennings does well just as long as the packers win" would not be a trust statement for me. The packers winning is of paramount importance, but I still want Jennings, and any other player that I'm a fan of to succeed. If they're wearing green and gold, I want to see them lighting it up. I think it's safe to say if Jennings, Driver, and Finley were all over 1000 yards we would be racking up the wins anyway (hopefully), so it kind of goes without saying.

So in short, I don't think I'm at fault for wanting my favorite players to succeed. Yes the Packers as a whole are more important, but that doesn't change my hope that certain players will do well.

I find it hard to believe such a statement needs justification.

I think both Jennings and Driver were over 1000 yards last season and we went 6-10. 😉

Yeah, but statistics never tell the whole story. I'm pretty sure most of us agree that our offense did enough to win us a few more ball games. Defense and special teams lost us a handful, and some untimely offensive mistakes accounted for the rest.

Not to be a spoiler but I have to ask this question;

Great recievers are still able to get open and produce even while being covered as the #1 reciever. Is Jennings worthy of that catagory or will he continue struggling to get open as a #1?

"doddpower" wrote:



This is exactly what I was thinking. I'm not sure if Jennings is truly a #1 receiver. Definitely a strong number 2 with a knack to get open deep by running great routes, but I'm just not seeing him getting the kind of separation he should, even when facing man to man coverage.

I think it's a combination of that and Rodger's just not looking his way enough honestly. Perhaps he's developing better chemistry with Driver as his go to guy? Sure seems that way.

Receivers can explode for big numbers at anytime. Look at Roddy White, Miles Austin, and the binge Steve Smith of the Giants was on. He's now cooled off.

I'm not worried about Jennings because I know he's very capable of being the receiver the Packers expect him to be. The fact is right now, Green Bay's offense is clicking. Even when they're playing poorly, they still have the ability to score 25 points and put up 400 total yards. That's really amazing and Jennings isn't involved. Eventually, he'll have a big game.

I will this .........Rodgers relies on Driver more because Driver is consistent. Jennings had some drops early in the year and that one against Cincinnati really stands out to me. Not saying there is a lack of confidence, but clearly, Driver has the hot hand right now.
