Unfortunately QB's are paid alot of money to take your team down te field with the game on the line to win it...not lose it. Rodgers lost you the game whatever spin you want to put on it. I think it will make him stronger but he still lacks that clutch quality that Peyton, Eli, Ben, Brady and Rivers has. It may come in time, until then he is a very good QB..(not elite). Also instead of moaning about pass intereference calls and facemasks,you should be picking up on the wide open pass he missed to Jennings as well. Number 2 defence? Sometimes schedules dictate such things.
Not bitter. Just annoyed. I wondered how long before you chirped up!
Rodgers didn't lose us the game our appaling defence did. They scored on all but 2 (i think) possessions and that is not good enough for any defence let alone the number 2 defence with a supposed wondeful D co-ordinator. I prefer to say that Rodgers managed to bring us back from 21 points and was a pass away from securing the best comeback in post season history with a defence that couldn't stop anything. Something i doubt your precious Eli could do...because Eli is not elite whereas Rodgers is.
Or your saying being dragged by your facemask and fumble means he isn't "clutch".
That pass to Jennings was close (he said he though Jennings was going to cut to the side-line quicker than go straight), that connects and it's game over.
As for the facemask and PI. As i've said, it may have been PI (i wasn't sure but after watching again the second definately is), but with our defence they would have scored anyway so they don't really matter. The Helmet to Helmet again is flagged if it is Brady or Peyton. The facemask is undeniable, it was a facemask and that is our ball and 15 yards. You can't get possession unless you have "clean hands" so that should not have been a TD. I'm sure even you can't deny that.
Would we have won...who knows. Did we deserve to win...our defence was terrible but with the youngest team we should how good we are on offence to come abck.
