Or is the team around him just that much less than previous years? Was a time that guy could elevate everyone around him. 

Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

Dude has 23 TDs and only 2 INTs. His completion percentage is down this year but he can still sling it. I would take him in a heart beat over any Vikings QB ever.

As much as the team is in turmoil, I'm seeing something from Rodgers that I also saw in McNabb over his last few playing years: a growing detachment from his previous intensity.  While I don't think he's "done" or declining so rapidly that he won't remain GB's most dangerous player, I do think that the loss of Jordy Nelson exposed how much his favorite receivers augmented his numbers.  For us, the good news is that Erin's hefty pay increase will be taking a large chunk out of Green Bay's ability to build around their oft-injured QB.

I think fans are reading into it too much: Rodgers has been injured all this year in one form or another. The team around him is not great. I think the odds are pretty good that the Packers and Rodgers rebound in 2019, but to what extent I don't know. Way too early to put dirt on his grave.
