The Case of Aaron Rodgers

14 posts in this topic

I drafted him in the first round, thinking I shouldn't have any issues of him dropping off in production, little did I know I would be wrong. Frankly, he hasn't done anything in the way of getting many points. I have Flacco on the bench and am thinking about starting him this week against the browns. At this rate though, should I start watching matchups with Rodgers now? Should I start Joe in place of Rodgers now long term?

week 1 vs 49ers, week 2 vs bears, week 3 vs seahawks. All great defenses who will all likely finish top 10.

They're abusing the packers new offensive line. Also missing Greg definitely affected his play. No question he's the number one target there.

Rodgers will get it going again, and NO. Do not bench him when he's playing the worse defense in the league in a possible shootout.

I drafted CJ first round, and that's obvously white flag thrown.....in your case, stick with Rodgers, he'll serve you good......

CJ was fun while he lasted! I wouldn't have drafted him 1st round, though, maybe 2nd or 3rd.

After I watched 3 games, the Titants O-line and run blocking were horrible; he didn't see a hole at all. They couldn't block crap; their pass protection is better. They should focus on their strength, the running game; why paying the dude 100mil and not helping him doing his own things from the backfield?

Such a waste of money and talent....

At least I picked up [url=""%20instance="_ppc"]Mikel Leshoure[/url] from FA which in place for CJ slot....

Chris Johnson is a bust too. Maybe he'd do better on another team. Arizona needs a RB.

I'd take Ryan Williams over CJ?K at this point.

Why I did not draft Aaron Rodgers, or any QB in the first round this year.

Aaron Rodgers had one of the easiest schedules in the league last year. This + the fact that defenses were simplified because of the lockout (less time to go over plays so less plays in the book) allowed Rodgers to post insanely high numbers for fantasy. That being said tho, prior to this he was very consistent finishing as the 2nd best point scorer for 3 years.

Here's why it was different this year. His schedule got a lot harder, defenses improved and become more complex. Jennings has been injured and the o line is working out some new parts

The same arguements are roughly the same for pats and Tom Brady

The main difference with Brees is the lack of coaching.

Should you sit rodgers? No, never sit him. The Pack will get it together and the offense will start working. Its only been 3 weeks, dont hit the panic button yet.
