As would 20-25 other teams in the league.
Granted GB hasn't won pretty very often, but they haven't lost ugly much either.
Subtract Rodgers rushing yards from the equation and you have ~20th ranked rush offense. Rodgers lost one of his top targets. The Defense has been spotty, not allowing a lot of points despite giving up a lot of yards.
I'd just be curious to see where they would be if you subtracted the "fraud" from the equation?

When did I call him a fraud? What I am saying is that he hasn't played to the level we are used to seeing from him, that is undeniable.

I never said you did, but you did say decline, and I pointed out that while stats are showing decline, he's still driving his team to wins and the playoffs.
Which shows not everything can be measured by individual stats.

Good thing for the Panthers the Giants will probably miss the playoffs. Giants lost to undefeated Pats and Packers 38-35 in 07 and 11, beat them in playoffs. Giants just lost to Panthers 38-35.

Suspended wide receiver Justin Blackmon got a DUI this weekend. I think that pretty much cements that his career is over. It's a shame because he's one of the most talented wide receivers in the NFL but couldn't get past his drug and alcohol issues.

Time will tell if this is the fate for troubled Cleveland WR Josh Gordon as well.

Cam Newton first to rush for 100 and throw 5 TDs in a single game. Yeah that's unique

I remember thinking he would be a bust due to not being the sharpest tool in the shed, hoping a similar talent is coming out this year. Problem is even if we draft one, I don't trust our current braintrust to coach him up.

Dak Precott is kind of like a poor man's Cam Newton in a way. The QB prospect that intrigues me is Carson Wentz. Playing in FCS is going to hurt him, but I bet he is going to tear it up at the combine.

Cardinals CB Tyrann Mathieu tore his ACL last night and is out for the season. Terrible injury to happen, but it also leads to questions why Mathieu was still in the game in the final minutes of a blowout win.

Dang that bites since he is one of their top def. players. I think this hurts their chances of going to the s.b. and lets the seahawks get to another one.

I rather see Green Bay or the Cardinals win the SB instead hearing Sherman's mouth about how great he is and bandwagon fans talkin' shit.

Seeing Richard Sherman's look of complete shock and dismay in the Super Bowl is one of the best moments in my sports watching life.

Cardinals should've won that year Kurt Warner got them there. Dang refs.

This is Football and anythings possible. When the playoffs start it's a whole new ballgame.

Was rooting for them to win but the refs had other plans.

EDIT: Didn't mean to double post, sorry.

Mariota out for season. Thanks, Titans.

Would've broken every rookie QB record if he played all 16 games.

Tony208 · 12-21-2015, 08:04 PM

Odell Beckham suspended 1 game. Serves him right for what happened on Sunday.

He sure looked a lot better against Josh Norman than Dez Bryant did.
