Aaron Rodgers on past criticism: Down years for me are career years for other QBs – NFL.com

Year 2 under coach Matt LaFleur has actually seen the Packers produce at a pace that would set a Super Bowl age record in scoring offense (38 points per video game), going beyond the 2013 Broncos rate of 37.9 PPG. Their 2020 output is a boost in 14.5 points per game and a 100-yard per video game jump, and Rodgers owns a passer ranking north of 128.

Its not forming up to be a down year for Rodgers or the Packers, but last season was viewed as such by some, thanks to Rodgers throwing fewer than 30 goal passes (he published a TD-INT ratio of 26-4) and simply barely breaking 4,000 backyards passing while leading Green Bay to a 13-3 record. When asked about the idea of potentially having a down year in seasons past, Rodgers was refreshingly blunt.

” Every team is different, every year is different,” Rodgers said during a look on The Pat McAfee Show. I feel a lot more comfortable, but I sometimes laugh when individuals talk about down years for me since a lot of times down years for me are career years for many quarterbacks.”

Aaron Rodgers is performing at a great clip– historical, in reality– and hes not shy about how well his groups offense is performing.

Hes the 4th player because 1948 with 12-plus passing touchdowns and absolutely no interceptions through 4 video games, and the third in the last 8 years. Its likewise the second time hes tossed 12 passing touchdowns in his first four video games.

That reaction drew a holler from McAfee and his team (which also includes previous Rams and Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk), to which Rodgers responded:

” Every team is various, every year is various,” Rodgers stated during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show. “Circumstances in any year which permit you to have more success or make it more difficult for success simply kind of depends on the circumstance. I feel a lot more comfortable, but I sometimes laugh when individuals talk about down years for me because a lot of times down years for me are profession years for a lot of quarterbacks.”

These Packers dont appear to be slowing down whenever quickly, and should be taken seriously from here on out– brother.

” Its just the facts, brother.”

The Packers are off to another hot start under LaFleur, who now owns a 17-3 record as a head coach, excellent for a winning percentage of.850, the very best for a first-timer (minimum 20 video games) in NFL history. Rodgers will one day discover himself wearing a gold jacket in Canton.
