I keep hearing commentators talk about RBs (and sometimes QBs and WRs) "getting in rhythm." I can't figure out what it really means, other than that a player who's having a good game tends to keep having a good game. Have you ever heard a player actually confess that he feels more confident after having just touched the ball, as opposed to taking a breather on the bench? Or that he's less confident early in a game until he's had a nice play or two?
I've heard offensive players talk about getting a feel for how the opposing defense is playing them, which provides a framework for what to expect on certain plays or in certain situations, generating more confidence that their calls, moves, decisions, etc., will succeed. It's about being immersed in the game as it's unfolding, which can't happen from the bench.

It seems Aaron Rodgers brings attention onto himself and then tries to suggest he wants none of it. He brought up his toe unsolicited, then basically accused the media of being invasive of his medical information for asking about it. I'm sure constant questions get annoying and "toe-gate" is a dumb issue but as Vic has written about, being a public figure invites public scrutiny, doesn't this all come with the territory? Guess I'm tired of the of the media being used as a straw man, I find it damaging.
The toe had to be put on the injury report, so it was going to bring questions. Rodgers only wanted to reveal so much in his answers, which is his prerogative, but he also invited heightened scrutiny of his answers based on Aug. 26. Still, it's the media's job to ask and try to find out, but it's also the media's job to publish only what it knows to be true, based on reliable sources and vetted information, not simply what it thinks is true. The problem in our current landscape is the wildest speculation quite often beats the truth when it comes to clicks and attention, so irresponsible "journalism" has become more profitable than the responsible type.

When I watch college football on TV it appears a lot of linemen are wearing some sort of a knee brace. Why don't professional players wear them? With all the knee ACL damages the Packers have had one would think the braces might help.
This is a common question. I'm sure braces would help. But they'd also limit a lineman's mobility in a way that would make it very difficult to succeed in the NFL, where nearly every player across a defensive front is bigger, stronger and faster than nearly every opponent faced in college.

Are you at all concerned that though our offense looked better in the second half, a lot of our success particularly in the bronze zone (since it hasn't been golden this year) relied on improv? It's always great to have that ability in our back pocket, but we have not typically fared well when having to rely on it as our core offense. What does it take for our designed pass offense to start to take off so that it can then be augmented rather than replaced by Rodgers' scramblin' savvy?
That's a good point about the off-schedule stuff producing a couple of TDs, which doesn't necessarily "fix" anything. I think it comes back to being able to run the ball in the red zone. The Packers were so good at it last year, as well as running screen passes. The success of the ground/screen game in a compressed part of the field set up the otherworldly efficiency. They have to find that again for the other red-zone calls to work as intended.
