Aaron Rodgers believes quarterbacks need to throw more incompletions in practice:
“That’s where you grow. You have to put yourself in the most adverse situations.”
“When coaches or players are more concerned about what it looks like than how it feels, it’s really hard to grow.”
“You’re just hoping for perfect passes in practice.” Instead, it should be, ‘Oh, you missed that one?’ Perfect.”
“That’s exactly what you want. Now you have a feeling. I was a little too far onto my front foot. My hitch was a little too much. I need more weight on my back foot. I need to put more air on this ball when it’s 25 yards outside the numbers.”
“Working with young quarterbacks, I tell them, ‘That’s the best rep possible.’ Remember that one.”
“So when it comes up next time, you can make the right throw.”
