The Packers turned in another up-and-down, ultimately disappointing performance at Minnesota Sunday night, which only intensifies Mike McCarthy’s already hot seat. The 13th-year head coach has become a receptacle for criticism, much of it adhering to the same theme: that his offensive system is stale.

The first problem is this analysis is a few years too late (more on that in a moment). The second—and much bigger—problem is it gives Aaron Rodgers a pass for the highly inconsistent way he executes this offense.

Please understand, you’re not reading an Aaron Rodgers Hot Take. At least, not according to discussions that occur within the NFL. Around the league, Rodgers is regarded as an incredible but imperfect quarterback. Outside the NFL, Rodgers is basically viewed as a god. It has somehow become heretical to say anything critical of him.

Rodgers is the most physically talented quarterback of all-time; 32 NFL GMs would be happy to build their team around him. When he’s clicking, he’s magnificent. But Rodgers does not click with the regularity of a Drew Brees, Tom Brady or even a resurgent Andrew Luck. There is no stat that captures throws that should be made but aren’t, or throws that could have been made on-schedule but were made off-schedule. If these categories existed, Rodgers would have as many as any quarterback, every year. He’s a scintillating sandlot player who goes into sandlot mode way too often.

Yes, Rodgers’s unique style, which few QBs have enough talent to call upon, has led to some of his most spectacular plays. But in the aggregate, it also creates the illusion of dysfunction around him. To television viewers, Rodgers runs around because his O-line breaks down. Or because, presumably, receivers aren’t getting open. And they’re not getting open because the scheme isn’t helping them. Sometimes this is the case. But just as often, the glitches aren’t coming from everyone around the quarterback, but from the quarterback himself.

What’s most befuddling: Right when you start to think Rodgers will forever read the field with the choppiness of a rookie, he starts slinging the ball with perfectly disciplined timing and rhythm. When that switch is flipped, Rodgers borders on unstoppable. His greatness reaches such a level that, when the switch is flipped back, you understand why outside observers can’t help but assume the problem is everyone else.

This is where McCarthy is getting victimized. A great illustration of Rodgers’s unevenness came two weeks ago in Green Bay’s win over Miami. The Packers faced a 4th-and-2 near midfield. The Dolphins are a zone D that almost always plays nickel. Knowing their nickel would keep two linebackers on the field, McCarthy put in a fourth receiver and aligned Davante Adams in the backfield, so their top weapon could run his route against those overmatched linebackers. Adams did, breaking open on a short-angle route right in Rodgers’s immediate line of vision. The play worked perfectly. And Rodgers, for reasons not even Sigmund Freud could figure out, tried to break down and extend the play. A quick-strike play like this can’t be extended, though, and naturally, the protection cracked and Rodgers was sacked.

Imagine if it had been Sean McVay putting Brandin Cooks at running back. Or Andy Reid putting Tyreek Hill there. Their genius would have been heralded once again. On a big fourth down gamble the offensive mastermind puts his best wide receiver at running back and catches the defense off balance! Boy, you never know what this coach will do next!

Of course, McVay’s QB or Reid’s QB (or almost any team’s QB) would have thrown the ball on that play. McCarthy’s QB didn’t, and so, to outside observers, McCarthy’s creativity here never existed.

That creativity lately has shown up on other plays, too. In fact, this season, McCarthy’s offensive scheme has evolved dramatically. Early in the year, it was mostly just the simple spread formations that propagate isolation routes—that’s the unimaginativeness McCarthy has been dogged for over the years. Most likely he played this way because it accommodated Rodgers’s sandlot tendencies. It worked when the Packers had the right veteran receivers. But with an aging Jordy Nelson gone, James Jones long gone, and Randall Cobb either out injured or not looking like himself, the Packers this season have had to rely on callow, rookie receivers who are not yet capable of getting open on their own or finding the defense’s soft spots when Rodgers extends plays.

So, McCarthy has scrapped some of the iso-spread passing concepts for newer-age designs. He has used spread formations this November about half as often as he did in September. More importantly, he’s used condensed formations, with receivers aligned tight to the formation, about three times as often. Those condensed sets are the same thing McVay uses in L.A. It gives receivers more field to work with, which propagates more schematic variables in the passing game and a more natural intertwinement of routes. It also creates congestion for a defense, rendering coverages more predictable. This makes it easier for a QB to anticipate open throws. And, receivers who align tight to the formation are in better position to block safeties in the running game, which makes play-action off of that even more believable. On a related note, the Packers have also employed more snaps of two-tight end personnel, which diversifies a scheme, particularly on the ground.

The results of McCarthy’s updated approach have been mixed, in part because Rodgers’s execution has been mixed. Still, it’s reasonable to keep McCarthy on the hot seat; even with his improved approach, he’s far from flawless. But when evaluating McCarthy, we must admit that his quarterback is far from flawless, too.

Also the impact of Brady's under-market salary is ENORMOUS. He's on a deal that pays him an average of $15M. Rodgers is now being paid $33M per year.

The dude has left over $100M on the table at this point

Sure, but the money still makes a big difference in keeping various guys around.

Packers had to let dudes like Jordy Nelson and Morgan Burnett go this year. Neither of those things would have happened if Rodgers was making $15M less than he is.

Most of these guys have a short shelf-life and don't have near the endorsement opportunities as some other athletes. And seriously one bad hit and any top QB could be out of the game forever.

Gisele's net worth today is basically what the perfect QB would achieve.

So by marrying Gisele, Tom already had access to the same amount of money as if he'd had the perfect career and tons of endorsements.

So to me it's not much of a sacrifice for him to be earning $20M in salary and endorsements vs $30-35M

a guy with a net worth on his own of like $150MM plus his wife's fortune of $250MM can more easily turn down $15MM than a guy who has a non-mega wealthy wife and could sufder a career ending injury tomorrow. Would you agree? It takes a shitload of money to take a 50% pay cut so your team can be better.

On a related note, I strongly suspect that a lot of endorsement deals in professional sports are actually disguised salary payments.

If Robert Kraft wants to back-channel a few million per year to Brady through Under Armor, who is going to stop him?

There is *zero* impetus anywhere to investigate such things.

I don't think law enforcement would give a shit because I can't think of any laws they'd be breaking. Billionaire team owners are not going to sic armies of auditors on one another.

Why don't more QBs take discounted deals?

its a salary cap league, money they make can't be used to pay for help around them

they're careers are longer than all their teammates

they're off the field earnings and legacies are more closely tied to the W-L records than any of the other guys

Seems like they could buy themselves long term security for a short term discount

idk, seems like we should have seen more than 1 guy do this, especially considering that 1 guy has more rings than any of these other guys

I agree. If they did they'd probably strip them of an entire draft though. I guess theoretically they could "take" trophies/titles away. NCAA has done that to players/teams, e.g. Reggie Bush and Louisville so not completely without precedent.

Then again the faggot NFL burned all the Spygate tapes, which undoubtedly included recorded walkthroughs/practices of the early 2000s Rams/Panthers/Eagles, so faggot Goodell will probably be too chickenshit to take away titles. Definitely would take away draft picks and $ though and we'd get to treat them like Barry Bonds at least and Brady might not get HOF.

Super Bowls are hard enough to win that you'd easily trade some down years to get them.

Is 5 Super Bowl titles worth 5 down years from draft penalties? I bet you almost every owner in the league would say YES emphatically.

If, OTOH, the league invalidated Brady's career and they lost titles AND draft picks, now that would do something.

Imagine if the Red Sox lost their 3 World Series titles in the 2000s bc of PED use. Think they'd be pretty damn clear about testing all their players like every week?

I think Brady is a good competitor, but he had almost no pressure.

He won early, which cemented his legacy, and he married Gisele, who made him as wealthy as anyone could be playing football.

The last 10-12 years he's literally had zero pressure on any front.

Playoff wins are silly. Rodgers lost close to a dozen playoff games where his team was just totally outmatched by the opponent. Very very rarely was that the case for Brady. The only ones I can think of off the top of my head are the Ravens playoff losses and last year against the Eagles.

If the wins were somewhat close I'd agree but when it's such a huge gap it's a meaningful factor. Brady has only had a few really elite receivers to throw to (e.g. Randy Moss about a decade ago). Brady basically made some of his receivers (Welker who sucked other places for instance). The Patriots are almost always good because of Brady who's played with rosters that completely turned over from his earlier years in the league.

Edelman was the 2nd best player on the field in that SB win against the Seahawks and it wasn't particularly close. He roasted the Legion of Boom.

People think because Welker, Edelman et al aren't tall fast guys who can make contested catches that they're not great receivers.

When you factor in sacks it's close. Rodgers take a ton of sacks who doesn't have to rather than throw it away and risk interceptions. Which is fine, and maybe even optimal, but pretending like a sack isn't a negative play inflates Rodger's worth.
