Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers dismissed concerns about his team's struggling offense ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Dallas Cowboys.

The Packers rank 31st in total offense and 27th in passing offence entering the weekend, despite boasting a 3-1 record.

Rodgers was unconcerned by his relative lack of production.

"I said it after the game. I’m not worried about that at all," Rodgers said Friday via ESPN's Jason Wilde. "Those things happen.

"I missed some passes. Those guys shouldn't be worried about me, either," "We're going to get better. We’re not going to have inconsistent performances like that."

Packers quarterbacks coach Alex Van Pelt also dismissed concerns about the superstar pivot.

"I don’t know what's wrong. I don't know if there is anything wrong," Van Pelt said. "It's the game of football. He's not going to roll it out there every day and be perfect, be Superman. (But) the standards have been set - and he set them.

"He's played some fantastic football, and he will play fantastic football moving forward. It’s just right now, we're in a little bit of a lull. We're trying to get out of it. ... But to say there’s anything wrong with Aaron, I don't think there's anything wrong."
