They always blame the running game and the defense. GB had an excellent run game this season because they actually committed to it, rather than allowing Aaron to check into a pass play all the time.
Their defense wasn't great, nor were they very bad. They ranked near the league average in yards and only gave up about 19 pts/g.
On a defense they just didn't produce. They have a solid Oline, very good ground attack, a true #1 WR in Adams, 2 veteran TEs, and a group of young WRs that played pretty well throughout the last 2 seasons. They had a good season, especially when you consider a new HC and offense system. I don't think he's close to being done. IMO, their problems and lack of success late in the season is mainly because of Aaron.
They have 1 good WR, everybody else is trash. Jimmy Graham hasn't been the same TE since he left the Saints. Yes they finally have a decent RB, but that hasn't been Aaron's fault. How many GB RBs went on to have good careers elsewhere?
This was one of the best teams hes had, but that's not saying alot at all.
However, I do think he's done. Maybe hes got another year left in him.
He has been s**t in the playoffs, that's a fact. He shrinks when the moments gets big.
A fact according to who? You need to look up the definition of a fact. He has 40 TDs and 12 ints in his playoff career. That's far from s**t lol.

And his defense has given up 30 and 40 points multiple times in the playoffs.
Again, empty numbers. I care about championships. How well does he play in his playoff losses? What's his body language? Does he inspire confidence?
