Turry 755 Posted December 29, 2011 According to ESPN Stats & Info, Aaron Rodgers has completed 59-of-81 throws for a 72.8 completion rate and a league-leading 154.5 passer rating on throws to Jordy Nelson.It's an amazing stat and further proof that Nelson is one of the most effective and underrated receivers in the league. He's gaining Rodgers' trust at the expense of Jermichael Finley's production. Nelson certainly deserved a Pro Bowl spot, though it's hard to quibble with the foursome of Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Steve Smith, and Greg Jennings.

Favre4Ever+ 4,476 Posted December 30, 2011 Fuck Jermichael Finley... If we give him mega money I will be so pissed. Jennings - Nelson - Jones - Cobb will do JUST fine.. I guarantee you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanbrock 1,684 Posted December 30, 2011 Fuck Jermichael Finley... If we give him mega money I will be so pissed. Jennings - Nelson - Jones - Cobb will do JUST fine.. I guarantee you. Do you really think that's going to happen? He's shown flashes of being good but other than that he's been injured or incredibly inconsistent. He'll probably leave Green Bay and become a dominant TE somewhere else lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He isn't going to be worth the money he signs for... And yes, I do actually think it's going to happen. If the Packers are seriously considering the franchise tag, it tells me they want to sort out a long term deal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bangy 19 Posted December 30, 2011 We have DJ Williams and so long as he can return from injury Andrew Quarless can rotate in more than enough for Finley and I also hope that the FO realise this and don't resign him. Cobb has shown that he can support and make catches to replace the declining Driver and Nelson's production should improve further with Finley got actually allowing people the see why he should be seen as a #1 WR Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteelersNation36 128 Posted December 30, 2011 Wasn't Finley the one who said he was going to change the TE position this season? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
badgers 380 Posted December 31, 2011 (edited) Wasn't Finley the one who said he was going to change the TE position this season? Yes and everyone laughed at him - including Packer fans. He's a fucking fraud and I want him off my team. God I hate Jermichael Finley. Every time I see him even get a pass thrown his way I go into a rage. And Bangy we haven't really seen anything from DJ Williams but hopefully he'll be good. Quarless' injury was apparently pretty bad. And don't call DD declining. If anything he's improved upon last year (injury ridden year). Ryan Taylor seems okay too but I hear he starts a lot of fights on ST and even in practice. Then Crabtree who is worth keeping around. He's one of those guys that can make plays but defenses don't pay attention to him at all. Edited December 31, 2011 by badgers 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's just that he is selfish, egotistical, and drops half the passes thrown to him. And it's not like Crabtree gives defenses a reason to notice him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RANGA+ 1,210 Posted December 31, 2011 Yeah that stat is crazy. Nelson has come a long way these past two seasons with Rodgers. As for Finley he definitely isn't worth the big bucks that the Packers could potentially pay him. They'd be better of letting him go and look to the draft to fill that TE spot.

It's just that he is selfish, egotistical, and drops half the passes thrown to him. And it's not like Crabtree gives defenses a reason to notice him. He could be 5x better than he is right now. That's what makes me mad. And yet he still seems to expect to receive a lot of money from us. And that's why I like Crabtree. He isn't flashy but when the ball is thrown his way he catches it (never seen him drop a pass) and gets a modest gain. Yeah he's not a great TE and yes Finley is a lot better but still, Crabtree is worth keeping around. We flex him around a lot at fullback cuz he's a really good blocker.
