Aaron Rodgers has always been able to make the plays no one would even think to attempt, something he showed even in a down year where he battled injuries all season. The Green Bay Packers’ new head coach has to get Rodgers and this offense back to making the plays most NFL quarterbacks make, the on-time, rhythm throws.
When Rodgers operated Mike McCarthy’s offense at maximum velocity, these were base staples of this offense. He’d hit his back foot and the ball would come whizzing out, right into the waiting arms of Jordy Nelson or Greg Jennings.
