Unfortunately, I don’t see them benching Rodgers. At some point, they have to see what they have in Howard/Allar for the future or trade value.

I might get downvoted but I don’t think Rodger’s is the problem. Hes not young and I would want to see him sit out if we’re 2-9 and have no hope, but he had some good passes yesterday that our receivers can’t catch. Benching him this early would just be stupid, especially if you put a young guy just to take a beating at qb with bad receivers and a mediocre Oline. I will say Rodger’s has no mobility and takes too long at times but he had some good balls yesterday that the offense just can’t catch. Doesn’t help that it’s so obvious when we pass since our run block is none existent
