No one seems to talk about the Packers much around here. Guess we don't have too many fans. I was reading an article on Aaron Rodgers today and didn't realize how much they have struggled dating back to the middle of last season. Rodgers is hailed as the best QB in the game blah blah blah but he has been quite mediocre for the last calendar year or so. He also has a career record of 7-6 in the playoffs compared to Brady's 22-9 so yeah I don't really get that.
Anyway, the Pack is off to a 1-1 start, and their offense hasn't looked very good. Since starting last year 6-0, they are 6-8 in their last 14. Rodgers' stats during that stretch:
308-540, 57.0%
3,213 5.95 YPA
23 TD 4.26%
8 INT 1.48 %
82.4 passer rating
These stats are, at best, mediocre, and pretty much terrible compared to the standard that Rodgers has set for himself. Rodgers is now 32 (33 in December) and already seems to be showing signs of decline.
I'll be interested to see if the Packers can get back to contender status this year or within the next couple years. I have many doubts.
