Bears vs Packers: Five Questions with Lombardi Ave
1. Are we all witnessing the decline of Aaron Rodgers? What’s up with the Packers offense? How will they attack the Bears defense?
A decline from recent years past -yes. An overall career decline -no. Everything up to this point has been somewhat easy for Rodgers. That is, once he was out of Brett Favre’s shadow. Rodgers has also been on the short side of benefiting from a dominant run game. Teams are obviously trying to keep him in the pocket right now and enjoying some short term success.
If Rodgers is as smart as he claims to be, he should figure it out. I mean after all he scored a 35 on his Wonderlic Test compared to the 22 of Brett Favre. It also looks like Knile Davis will be the starting running back due to a rash of injuries at the position. It should be interesting.
