Some Fans Need an Eye Exam

Nothing could be further from the truth.

His surroundings have never been perfect. Some aspect of the offense has consistently been deficient, whether it’s a lack of a second reciever, no running game, or poor blocking. There has always been a glaring weakness in the offense.

Andy is a fine QB. I’ve been comfortable/confident with him in many games where he needs to score to win (4th comebacks). Guess what? He’s lead his team down the field often for the go ahead/winning score.

I’m confident they’ll beat Jacksonville. I’m confident it will be largely due to Andy playing well and/or making the plays that need to be made.

Well we've had a good pass-blocking OLine, and an average run game, and AJ Green and Eifert...which is better than 80% of the league...but you have to look at the hidden things. Organizational culture. It's going to be hard for any QB to come in and win here.

Many philosophical reasons - not valuing Centers and Guards. Letting free agents go for Comp picks. History - When you don't win a playoff win for 26 years...you EXPECT to lose.

A new coach has probably 3-4 years to come in and change the culture. Beyond that...he just becomes part of the existing losing cultural timeline. Marvin IS now a big part of the 26+ year playoff drought.

People say IF Aaron Rodgers were here we'd win. Yes - IF current Packers incarnation of Rodgers was here, we'd win...but IF the Bengals drafted him...he likely wouldn't have turned out as good. That's the hidden.
