I don’t want to be negative anymore.
Throwing stones at the defense has been way too easy – and frankly, a little boring. The defensive personnel hasn’t been allowed to play to its athletic strengths by playing Charmin soft, no matter the opponent. Green Bay allowed 500 total yards as the Eagles beat the Packers 40-33.
But this wasn’t about the flimsy defense. What stood out to me was the guy that replaced Aaron Rodgers.
I’ve been saying for a while that Rodgers should’ve sat weeks ago as he recovered from Gamekeeper’s thumb on his throwing hand.
