For the first time since 2008, when Aaron Rodgers was a first time full-time starter, the Green Bay Packers have dropped five straight games. With Minnesota Vikings being the surprise package of NFC North division with seven wins out of eight games. The Green Army have been a major disappointment with only 3 wins out of nine contests.
Moreover, the momentum in the Packers dugout seems to be shakes at the moment. With the reigning MVP throwing around blames at his teammates, he himself caused his team to lose their most recent game against the Detroit Lions 9-15, who were indeed the worst defensive team in the league. This resulted in the veteran QB taking blame for him plays and accountability for the team’s current form.
Aaron Rodgers said on the latest episode of Pat McAfee Show, “Well obviously disappointing. It’s been a rough stretch since London. Lost five in a row. You know, similar patterns, and most of those games just not have four quarters of execution.”
Aaron Rodgers gets real on Packers poor form
He added, “We still had a chance to find a way to win. I came in and didn’t, so disappointed on many levels, but there’s never any concession, never any given up. Definitely not from me, definitely not from so many of the guys that we go to battle with.”
That being said, Aaron’s side has only given 18 sacks so far in the 2022-23 regular season. However, their upcoming opponents have been sacking QBs for fun. This too, should be an understatement.
To be precise, they only average 17.1 points per game (ranks 27th) while the Cowboys only allow 16.6 points per game (third best in the NFL). Meanwhile, the Dallas offense averages 22 points a game. Will there be an upset? Surely, if there is anyone who can cause one – it is Aaron Rodgers.
