Rodgers Needs To Practice

packeraaron in Aaron Rodgers, Mike McCarthy

That’s the assessment McCarthy gave today on FOX Sports Radio.

It’s a valid point - Rodgers is running one of the most complex offensive systems in the NFL and he has missed extremely extensive practice time since the Tampa game when he injured his shoulder. That said (and I hate to pile on McCarthy here, though I think he can take it) - isn’t that all the more reason to pack it in with heavy formations and call a less timing-intensive gameplan with fewer receiving options for his under-practiced quarterback to have to navigate? I know he’s the expert here, but McCarthy’s point about Rodgers’ lack of practice time makes his decision to spread it out on Sunday all the more curious.

I do think that lack of practice is an issue with Rodgers (well that and no protection from his O-line). And it makes sense, he probably is still developing timing with his receivers and not being able to practice would limit his ability to find a groove with them.

what browser are you using? Sorry- if you are using IE6 or worse we are not compatible. It’s not our fault. IE6 does not conform to proper CSS rules and current web standards. we do.

Is there anyway you can get firefox on your computer? again I’m sorry- it pains me that some browsers arent fully compatible- i just dont have the resources to make CHTV the hotness for all.. Maybe u could buy us a couple hundred beers? :) just kidding…have u tried accessing our site with an iphone? now thats the hotness..

Its nice to see Cheesehead go commercial, I promise I will click on the ads, but right now they are blocking your content.
Your site is good, don’t drag it down by going all Google Adsense on us.
Patience young bloggers.
P.S. I’m running the latest version of Firefox, and hotness is not a word men use, chicks OK, men no.

Practice? He sat on the bench for three years just waiting for opportunity. Isn’t he making ten million dollars this year? This is it! I know the o line did not protect him but some other QB’s in the NFL GET RID OF THE BALL!

Nothing like throwing your QB under the bus. Take a little responsiblity for constantly running out the gimmicky Big Five, when you watch your QB getting destroyed.

Now that our running game is showing signs of life, I say put Grant and Jackson out there at the same time and see what happens. You want to run 30 times a game, then prove it.

I’m all for holding people accountable, but that should include yourself, Mike.
