Part 4/7:
The physical demands on players, particularly Tyrone Smith, have raised concerns about diminishing skills and the subsequent pressure placed on quarterbacks like Aaron Rodgers. High performance under stress can yield mixed results, and when key positions become compromised, entire game strategies falter.
