I feel sorry for the Great Aaron Rodgers. To see the greatest football player to ever walk onto the gridiron in NFL history who can throw passes that no other QB could throw lose like that is just heartbreaking.
But I would like to remind thee that Jesus too was crucified and we now call that day good Friday.
Hence forth I will call the last Thursday in September Good Thursday.
May Aaron bless you. He too shall rise again on Cheaster Sunday.
Sincerely
Joe Buck
It's tough for Joe Buck to call games. I don't inherently hate him even, really, he's a baseball announcer. Jack Buck was an average-at-best football announcer too.
Here's what Joe Buck does. He identifies the three players on each team that he actually knows, and repeats their names over and over throughout the broadcast, to show that he's paying attention. If one of those players gets hurt (Devante Adams), then he's down to two players.
Week 1 can be kind of a trainwreck if there were a lot of free agent moves.
Did the fans do the wave, upsetting Aaaaaron's delicate karma?
When I have some time, I’ll do a detailed breakdown, but go to pro football-reference and check out Rodgers advanced stats (net yards/attempt and adj. net yards/attempt) from roughly 2010-14 and then 2015-present. The guy truly has not been a good quarterback for about five years, outside choosing sacks over any type of risky pass to preserve his inflated passer rating. I mean, the decline is absolutely stunning. I don’t even know if he’s a pro bowl level QB when you consider how low his actual production (correlating highly to points scored and wins) and look beyond that big, fat, fake QB rating that he manufactures. He takes so many negative plays and doesn’t make up for them as frequently anymore...despite all the fawning because of his “highlight reel plays” that only exist because he bails from the pocket every time and plays hero ball.
