It'd be one thing if it was just a 2 or 3 game stretch and this was going on. But by in large, he's been off for a calendar year now. The numbers back it up too. Ever since the KC MNF game last year (when PFF had his game rated as a pretty bad game too despite the numbers he put up), he's been largely average. There really shouldn't be an excuse for him either. A lot of teams would love to kill for the OL that the Packers have, Lacy's been really good this year, Jordy's back, etc. There were a couple of plays yesterday when Rodgers had 5 seconds to throw the ball downfield, had Janis and Adams open on multiple occasions down the middle of the field, but he either overlooked them, or threw the ball really late to them. The defense is baiting Rodgers to take the middle of the field and the Packers refuse to do it, for whatever reason. A large part of the offense should fall on Rodgers, but McCarthy hasn't really done anything to change the playbook or design the WR's to get open when they're battling on man coverage.
