At the risk of drawing packers fans ire I will state my opinion....
I have always believed Aaron Rodgers was way over-rated....before you grab the tomatoes hear me out....I think he is a great starting quarterback no doubt and like Peyton Manning can elevate the play of talent surrounding him but.....when it comes to playoffs the guy has flameouts (aside the 2010 SB title) and (yes his playoff record is 8-6) and he gets a lot of hype over winning 1 superbowl ....1.....compared to Brady, roethlisberger, eli manning who have one more than 1 title yet rarely except for brady do these other guys get credit.....
In the playoffs if you press the pocket the guy has bad problems holding onto the ball too long and results in many strip sack fumbles..... he's not a running threat anymore like when he was younger and occasionally scampered to get a 1st down. He will be the replacement Peyton Manning who gives you great winning seasons, multiple leads in stat categories and records but will be lucky to get to another superbowl in his lifetime......b/c his playoff clutchness lacks a lot.....some will say oh in 2015 the packers were close to going to the superbowl and blame the TE onside kick, the clinton-dix botched contest of the 2point conversion etc...but the bottom line is Rodgers had several chances to close the door on Seattle and he didn't. Whether that is due to play calling or not, the player is the one who needs to execute otherwise it will not work.....he threw 2 picks against Seattle....
A lot of other players get the blame similar to how the Colts with Peyton Manning always blamed the defense or O -line but the qb is the guy who needs to get it done.....
Even if Rodgers gets a new OC/coaching staff it will not be magic and take at least 1-2 seasons to implement and get comfortable with.....I think as far as Rodgers he's probably on the backside of his career potential (he's maxed out his potential) and most dc's now have a good book on how to pressure him and take him out of his game.....Especially if you have a great front 4 and keep Rodgers in the pocket bubble he's less effective and more prone to in-completions/fumbles/interceptions than if you let him run left or right of the pocket and throw on the run.....
It's over in GB, they wont make the playoffs for at least 2-3 more years including this season...whether the OC/DC/HC needs to be changed or not that team is not the offensive juggernaut it once was.....the league has caught up to them especially about their predictable offensive/conservative play calling....

Re: It's over in Green Bay
Well.
The Titans truly put a beatdown on the Packers today.
Before they think playoffs, they should be thinking about winning some games.

Funnily enough, the Packers are one game behind in the NFC North standings.
On a totally unrelated note, how's that 4 game losing streak, Purple?

I was talking about the Packers. Also, that september game against Green Bay would have been a shutout if it weren't for stupid penalties.
Then again, I could bring up what happened the last time you played the packers...

I've actually been saying for the past two weeks that I think the Titans are going to surpass the Texans and win their division. Houston's 6-3 doesn't reflect what kind of team they have. The Colts have Luck and that's about it, so I think the Titans will win the division.
