I couldn't agree more. Dont totaly abandon the run game when your team was ranked at the top of the pile last year. I would run twice and pass once, then when the defense bites on the pass on 3rd and long run the ball. I'm sure all of us have played Madden before...lol

I think the D you currently have will have a hard time stopping Rodgers. A full deck D with all coaches and players would be a different story. I can't believe it's 1 - 2 vs. 0 - 3. Nobody would have bet that looking at it on the schedule.
