Even when Rodgers is wrong he's right. Here's a closer look at the James Jones/Rodgers interceptions vs the Colts (last Int he threw I think)


4 WR vs 6 DBs with a DB at the LOS showing blitz

Defensive play loosely. All four corners are in man. #2 WR was motioned from the side Jones was on and was followed by #3 DB. Man to man coverage must have been switched once the offense realigned. All 6 defenders that are showing rush do rush and all attack gaps. One high safety.

See.

Offensive play loosely. With the one high safety the throw to Jones in one on one seems pretty safe. Bang for your buck on 3rd and 2.

Back to the LOS.

Which gaps the defense is shooting.

Offensive responsibilities blocking. The 6th DB is on Kuhn. Both tackles cut their rushers.

See. Rodgers ready to throw.

Jones in position for the ball. He's in front of his defender but not for long because he's running backwards (momentum from the turn) before the ball gets to him.

And the interception.

tl;dr Rodgers motioned for Jones to be one on one with a safety (next closest DB) being a solid 15 yards away. Jones couldn't set his feet well enough and his momentum kept him going down field which allowed room for a DB to barley swoop in and get an interception before heading out of bounds.

No doubt! Rodgers is playing like a BOSS right now. Many called beef on that deep Finley pass this past weekend. There is risk with every great NFL throw guys! Rodgers sure has a good feel for when to take said risk though.

Also, Man's ability to hit the window when his body is out of line is truly special. And my god, when his left elbow/feet are in line with target and he pulls over, man can hit a beer can from 50 yards away.

Also again, don't think for a sec that Saturday coming into the fit is not playing a big part in Rodgers balling out of late. Rodgers and Wells were looking from the same set of eyes at the end there. Takes time, but Saturday is much better pre snap than he was just a few short weeks ago.

Rodgers is being extremely smart with the ball right now, but I would still say the Indy INT was on him. It was the right throw, but a back shoulder fade is an indefensible throw if throw in the right spot, Rodgers left it too much in the field, that DB should have no play on the ball. It should be Jones or a guy on the sidelines with the best play on it. That said, I'd have him make the same read 10/10 because I know he can make that throw look easy.
