So it’s clear after watching Mike Fing White and Josh Johnson that the system and coaching works. It’s up to Wilson to figure it out.

I hope hes learned by watching. He’s looking 80% big play, 20% safe play. He needs to flip that. The big throws only open from the safe plays.

if he can’t figure this out, it’s on him. LaFleur answered a ton of questions for me the past few weeks.

Agreed. Wasn't sure if it was Wilson or LaFleur or both, but I think after these past couple of weeks, it's definitely Wilson.

Saleh said they opened the playbook for White. They gave Zach the 3 yards and a cloud of dust offense.

Meh Wilson made his own mistakes. He's holding on to the ball too long. Missing open guys trying to highlight reel everything. A lot of people have said it - Rodgers/Mahomes improvise 10-15% of the time. Wilson is trying to be that guy on every play. It's not BYU anymore.

I wouldnt' discount the move LaFleur made to the booth when Wilson got hurt. It may have allowed him to see the game better and adjust to the defense rather than being on the sideline talking to Wilson between possesions.

Sounds like bringing in John Beck is to have someone on the sideline with Wilson relaying feedback, but keeping LaFleur in the booth

The playcalling after the pats game was light years different than with Wilson starting. How many times did they open the game with 2 running plays usually leaving 3rd and long to start the game?
 
Sounds like Mike White will be fine, finally got a positive.

Maye done for the year, have to imagine he’s done here.

I used to really like Aaron Rodgers and root for him. Now I kinda think he's just a gigantic dumbass. The last few months have really changed my opinion of him.

I'm the opposite. Never liked him. Now kinda do. Shrug.

Aaron Rodgers telling the NFL he's safe because he rubbed moon crystals and newt blood all over himself and being shocked that they denied that counted as immunity is so f***ing hilarious.

That meltdown ROCKED yesterday. One of the all time insane, donkey brained eruptions I have ever seen from any athlete.

Yeah, it's not even that he didn't want to get a vaccine or whatever, that's up to him, I get it. It's that he sounds like one of those guys who "did his research" with Facebook- and Twitter-meme-quality shit. The fact that he keeps blaming things on woke culture (or the "woke mob") and cancel culture also makes me think he doesn't actually know what either of those things are. Again, I don't care if he didn't want to get a vaccine, plenty of reasons a person could take that stance, but the dude sounded f***ing nuts and kind of unhinged.

When Rodgers was asked directly and specifically if he was vaccinated earlier this year he said:

"Yeah, I've been immunized"

he responded yes before trying to get cute with semantics.

Dude is a liar. How can he say he didn’t lie? At least he won’t have cow worms…

Patrick Graham is so infuriating with his soft zone defense approach every single 2 minute drive. Every time. Every single f***ing time opposing offenses can easily walk down the field.

We just have a losing coaching staff. Losers.

Eli showed that he had an arm in his rookie season. He even showed up big in the 4th quarter early in his career.

I'm not getting that with Jones in the slightest. He's definitely more mobile...but that's about it.

There's nothing wrong with Jones's arm. I still wonder about him upstairs. But I honestly want to see him with not the worst O-line and offensive coordinator combo in the NFL.

Jones’ arm is good enough. He has been able to chuck it downfield. How can you watch the games and come away with this assessment? Do you see the play calling that has occurred?

Good enough to who? How many times has he lobbed it down field, nowhere close to one of our receivers? Did you miss those thrown balls to virtually no one in the 4th quarter?

I'm not absolving the play calling, but this kid isn't giving me the same level of confidence as Eli.

He did that today when there was a jail break.
