NFL: ***2022 NFL Season Thread***

You still think Fields isn't good?

Hes doing most of his damage with his legs. He only averages 149 passing yards per game, which is probably the worst in the NFL.

Hes definitely looking alor better but to make a statement like that comparing Fields to a HOF Qb is just dumb. The reason Rodgers sucks so bad is because his recievers are so bad. Putting Lazard on the Bears doesn't change anything, hes basically a Claypool clone and look what he's doing, usually 2 or 3 targets per game so far with Fields.

He's a great fantasy QB rn. He still can't really do things that ensure actual wins, including throw.

Packers fan need to gird themselves for some potential dark times. Rodgers looks like he wants to be anywhere but a football field right now.

Rodgers career looks like it is in, dare I say, Jeopardy.

They're scoring over 30 points per game the last 4 weeks! He can't control his defense.

Fields is the best running back the Bears have. He's also their best QB, but only because he's really their only choice.

 

[Neptune78]

No he doesn't. There's an opportunity for Green Bay to trade him after this season, but it has to be a post June 1 trade. Trading prior to that and his dead cap number is massive (almost $100 million).

Cowherd says 'his best take ever' is Rodgers should be traded to his hometown team Seahawks for their Round 1-4 picks.

The reason Rodgers isn’t playing well is because he is just bad this year. This media narrative that he has nothing is a cop out. He is missing so many throws he usually makes. Just doesn’t seem like he wants to be playing for whatever reason. There are worse receiving groups that are playing better with a supposed worse quarterback so….

Agreed. The Titans WR corps isn't substantially better than Green Bay's and they managed 300+ yards passing, last night.

The young receiver thing might have been an excuse for the first few weeks, but if he's not on the same page with them by now, that's an AR problem.

Maybe his thumb is bothering him more than he's letting on. Maybe he's just lost a step. Maybe he just doesn't have the same drive anymore. Maybe it's something else. But it's pretty clear that this is not the same Aaron Rodgers that we have seen the last few years. He covered a lot of warts with stellar play, and he's not doing that this year.

If Ryan freaking Tannehill can throw for 300+ with the receiving corp he's got, there is no reason Rodgers can't manage.

Yup, he's missing a lot of shorter throws that he usually makes, but the difference this year--no more big scramble plays outside the pocket. Reason could be all of the above coupled with receivers who just don't know how to let Rodgers throw them open.

 

[somecyguy]

No idea if this is true or bogus, but it would explain the erratic throws last night.

 

[Jer]

Rodgers and Brady have looked like twins this year. Neither looks happy to be playing (outside of Brady in their win a week ago and Rodgers against the Cowboys) and neither has had great body language throughput.

Both have missed a lot of easy throws, haven’t seen some wide open receivers, and both have done so while looking like their talent fell off a cliff. Neither of them have a ton of weapons, but both have had much worse support and done far greater in the past.

You could add Wilson in there in almost the exact same way.

They’re washed up.

If Ryan freaking Tannehill can throw for 300+ with the receiving corp he's got, there is no reason Rodgers can't manage.

Treylon Burks was the #18 pick in the draft and Robert Woods has been over 1,000 yard receiver numerous times in his career. It also helps open up the passing game when you have the best running back in the NFL.

I'm no Rodgers supporter, in fact I'm a Bears fan and hate Green Bay, but there is no doubt his supporting cast is extremely poor without Adams. I hate to bag on Lazard since he's one of my favorite Cyclones, but he's a WR3 on any other team, Dobbs sucks, Cobb and Watkins are t too old and injured, and Watson looks decent the last couple games but doesn't come with the same pedigree as a guy like Burks.

Tennessee also has a much better tight end in Hooper. Just because they don't need to pass much to win doesn't mean they are alot worse than GB.

I've got a hell of a debate going on my head for a fantasy league where I have both Jackson and Fields...currently Fields is in the lineup.

Bears fans keeping it real!

They all had to grow out their beards or something for at least a few weeks to get those mustaches.

That's some dedication.

Can we blame that ridiculous haircut he had this year? I blame the haircut. Walking around like that shows horrendous judgment - how can you make plays in an NFL game if you say to your barber, “yeah, just go with three different styles in different places on my head, that sounds great”?
