They had <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-aaron-rodgers-tries-to-inspire-packers-teammates-amid-losing-streak-20221109-0064.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">dropped five games in a row,</a> and things weren’t going to get any easier with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-odell-beckham-jr-exorbitant-deal-request-that-might-scare-the-cowboys-20221113-0049.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Dallas Cowboys</a> visiting Lambeau Field fresh off their bye week.
Fortunately for them, rookie wideout Christian Watson finally had the big game he was due. Following a couple of embarrassing drops, he hauled in four receptions for 107 yards and three touchdowns.
Watson’s career got off to a worrisome start, featuring multiple drops and injuries and not being able to showcase his skills. That’s why <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-aaron-rodgers-and-quarterbacks-who-may-not-win-a-super-bowl-again-20221111-0052.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Aaron Rodgers</a> believes he finally put all that bad energy behind him with this performance.
<h2>NFL News: Rodgers Says Watson ‘Exorcised Some Demons’</h2>
“We had a lot of plays designed for him, so I don’t think there was any other option,” Rodgers said, as quoted byJason Wilde of the Wisconsin State Journal. “I think that [first touchdown] probably on the atomic level shifted a lot of different things for him, exorcising some energetic demons. I’m proud of him. He made some plays.”

<h2>Watson Knows It Was Worth The Wait</h2>
The second-round pick out of NDSU knows he wasn’t at his best to start the season. However, when asked about whether last night’s game was worth the wait, he was as blunt and straightforward as you’d expect:
“I would definitely say it is,” Watson said. “I mean, obviously, it didn’t go the way I wanted, but like I kind of just said, ‘I’ve got to control what I can control.’ So obviously, [to] be able to just go out there and do my thing today was obviously well worth it.”
“It started off rough again, having two drops, and to finish the game with three touchdowns … I did tell him after the second drop on the third down, I said, ‘Hey, we’re coming back to you. We’re coming back to you.’ And he responded,” HC Matt LaFleur added.
The Packers’ offense will continue to be undermanned for the remainder of the campaign. So, hopefully, Watson will be able to build from this momentum and help his team turn this tough season around.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-aaron-rodgers-reveals-who-is-the-perfect-packers-teammate-20220927-0028.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Aaron Rodgers</a> has been with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/Top-25-NFL-teams-with-most-fans-20200501-0001.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Green Bay Packers</a> long enough to speak his mind and go straight to the point whenever he wants to. This offseason, he looked worried about what the wide receiver group looked likeafter the departure of Davante Adams.
His concern made sense, given that he had just lost an <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/aaron-rodgers-opens-up-on-possibility-of-teaming-up-with-odell-beckham-jr-20221004-0022.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">All-Pro teammate</a> and in exchange he was given the task to lean on a number of young targets. However, the veteran quarterback later started to see a lot of potential in the wideouts.
Recently, Rodgers had nothing but praise for the Packers WRs, lookingparticularly impressed by rookiewideout <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/packers-number-9-christian-watson-profile-age-height-weight-contract-and-college-stats-20220911-0025.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Christian Watson</a>, who was selected in the second round of this year’s draft. In fact, he even compared Watson to a young version of Adams.
<h2>Aaron Rodgers compares Packers rookie WR to young Davante Adams</h2>
“Look, I tell you, he’s got special speed. He really does. He’s got incredible stride length,”Rodgers said on the Pat McAfee Show, via Packers Wire. “When you watch some of the film back, it’s similar to watching Davante his rookie year. 
“You know there were games where I didn’t give Davante a ton of looks, but you go back and watch the film, and you’re thinking, ‘Man, this guy is open often.’ It’s like that from time to time with Christian. 
“There’s a few routes, I mean not as much as Davante, I just think Davante was a little more polished route runner as a rookie, but there are a few times where I might need to give him a second look even when things don’t look great from the start because he does have that different type of speed. But we’re finding ways to use him, I think, and again, we have to have patience.”
Aaron Rodgers has been with the Green Bay Packers since he entered the NFL, so whenever he has this kind of praise for a teammate, he knows what he’s talking about. Watson’s stats may have yet to take off, but his potential has already caught Rodgers’ eye.
