I know the Packer fans have to blame somebody for the 2 - 3 start and who else but Aaron Rodgers. I mean he did replace the Legend in Favre.
It seems to me that Rodgers has played pretty well. Here is what I would blame the poor start on....
1. Running game is not as good as it was last year. Grant put up some monster numbers last year and he is not getting them now and teams just don't respect the Pack running game.
2. The Inability to stop the run.. They have been getting shredded.
3. Mismatches in the secondary. Roddy White had a field day. Harris's replacement and safety option just are not that good.
4. Poor pass rush. These guys were all over the passer last year and this year their rush is non existent.
5. INJURIES and this is the biggest reason. This is a banged up football team and their lack of depth in the defense shows. When healthy this team can play with anyone but injuries to both offensive and defensive line, the secondary and AJ Hawk have made this team mediocre
