I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. People hype this O Line all the time. If you think this O Line is good and it’s not from Rodgers being a absolute magician to dodge defenders, throw balls away, avoid taking sacks, and making something out of nothing because of his vision and ability to escape the pocket, then I’m not sure what to tell you. They get credit for his time to throw the ball when in reality they should get almost none of the credit. They get exposed all the time and Rodgers avoids 2-3 guys on almost every play. He can’t do that every single time.

Graham has to catch that. Rodgers just does not get any help from this group. I've always hated that excuse, but it is terribly obvious this season.

Gotta give credit to the defender there. Got his arm in there so Jimmy couldn't secure it and he still almost did.

Remember what Yoda said:

They've been statistically really good this year. They are facing the toughest pass rush in the NFL and they now have Alex Light in there instead of Bryan Bulaga. That's not going to be good.

 

No, the O line is not this year's problem. It's having guys like Geronimo Allison and the corpse of Jimmy Graham as trusted offensive "weapons ".

For years people wanted them to buy defense because Rodgers could make it work with just guys. I think they waited a tad too long and Rodgers is no longer that dude. Still good, but not that guy anymore. Much like Favre, he can still be really good late into his 30s but not with Robert Ferguson.

My goodness. This game is playing up to what you love totally. All negative, all the time.

 

You do get the idea of a reverse jinx... Right?

 

With every post? No

 

Outside of a few plays by the defense what has the been to be positive about?

It's been a half long stream of bad football by the offense.

Just under 3:00 left in the first half and somehow only down 13 points. Seems like it should be more. Has a bit of a similar feeling to the Monday night game vs. Detroit. Get any sort of offense going, and it’s a game that can be taken.

 

A 13-0 game against a defense like this is a little different than being down 13-0 to say, Detroit. I'm not sure we get in the endzone this game once much less score 14.

I think the booth guy is nuts. There is no way that gets ruled a catch.

I’d give it a 25% chance of being overturned. It’s 50/50 on the replay, so I see them sticking with the call on the field. Given the magnitude of the play, maybe it was worth a challenge?

I don't believe I've heard a second of hype regarding the O-line this year, personally.

 

The broadcasters were saying how this is arguably the top offensive line in the game.

I can’t believe I read posts that were supportive of this WR group. It’s a bunch of turds minus Adams.
"This is a very simple game. You throw the ball, you catch the ball, you hit the ball. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose, sometimes it rains." Think about that for a while.
