The Packers fired Mike McCarthy. They fired Dom Capers. They found a great running game. They have a number one receiver. They have an elite offensive line. They’ve invested all kinds of resources in their defense. And yet, Aaron Rodgers remains the lone constant in a still-struggling offense.
The Packers currently rank 22nd in the league in passing. That’s good for seven spots behind the 1-13 Cincinnati Bengals. For seemingly the last five straight seasons, Rodgers has simply refused to throw the ball without holding onto it for at least three or four seconds.
