Aaron Rodgers takes aim at his own coaches after Green Bay Packers avoid embarrassment

Aaron Rodgers has seemingly taken aim at his own coaches after the Green Bay Packers almost suffered a slightly embarrassing home defeat to the New England Patriots who had played the majority of the game with third-string quarterback, rookie Bailey Zappe.

Although having an impressive 3-1 record, the Packers have had a slow start to the season in both sides of the game, with the offence failing to live up to their standards of the past two seasons, whilst the defence has also struggled. And Rodgers himself has highlighted the need to improve in both facets, whilst surprisingly taking aim at the coaches by suggesting the gameplan was wrong.

Rodgers said: "I think we're going to have to play a little bit better against starting quarterbacks and if our defense isn't playing as well as they can."
