Aaron Rodgers' message to those who were beginning to doubt both him and the Packers offense after a 19-7 loss in Week 3 was simply relax.
Guess he knew what he was talking about.
If you own him in Fantasy, his four-touchdown performance Week 4 at the Bears should bring you some relief. The Bears had been OK against the pass coming into the game, in part because they faced the Bills and the Jets in two of their first three games, but their shortcomings on the defensive side of the ball were evident. And Rodgers torched them, just like he did the Jets in Week 2.
The Lions weren't known as a standout defensive team prior to facing Rodgers, but they had another dandy of a performance Week 4 at the Jets, making them 4 for 4 in containing the pass this season. I'm thinking they were more the reason for Rodgers' struggles in Week 3 than Rodgers himself. And of course, we halfway expected Rodgers to struggle at Seattle in Week 1. Everyone not wearing a Seahawks uniform struggles there.
Rodgers is fine. He remains a stud quarterback in Fantasy and should be at his studliest Week 5 against Minnesota.
