When the Green Bay Packers lose, it’s never Aaron Rodgers’ fault.
Disclaimer: The previous sentence is intended to be sarcasm, though many fans and media cheerleaders seriously believe it. Rodgers probably believes it, too.
Rodgers is the best part of the Packers 90-plus percent of the time, but that was untrue a week ago in a loss at Washington and it needs to be true Sunday at Buffalo — if not, Green Bay’s ugly start to the season will go from bad to worse.
Rodgers is a double-digit underdog for the first time in his career, and his inconsistent play is a contributing factor. The Packers (3-4) are also in this predicament because the Bills (5-1) power rate as the No. 1 team in the NFL.
