There was also a drive in the 1st (maybe the first drive?) where Rodgers had a wide open lane to the end zone and forced a pass. Reminded me of Favre late in his career. He can't take the cold...and he can't do simple reads when pressure is on.
It was almost exactly like the giants nfc title game which was Favre's last game.....would be ironic if this was Rodgers last game too. Their careers were basically mirrors of each other.
I was thinking that, too. It's like we had some quarterback magic spell for both of them that lasted decades but wore off with the same Cinderella-at-midnight thud.
We've been blessed with many magical quarterback moments, and thanks for those, but watching the coach turn into a pumpkin is painful.
Didn't Favre actually have a good season tho? His last game was in the NFC championship. Rodgers was the last game of the year where hadn't throw over 300 yards all year and we finished under 500.

I still can't get over how visually similar the Rodgers pick was to Farves pick in that NFCG. I audibly gasp'd watching it.

Zach Tom is a left tackle who chit the bed tonight and was below average outside of a few games. There's a reason Jenkins started at RT once he came back from injury and it's because our other options there were no good either. We had no plan at the position, Gute just decided to wing it.
Are you actually a Packer's fan?
What does this even mean? I would really like an answer.
You think I'm torturing myself watching this garbage as a part of some elaborate scheme?

Yes, that's true. I was thinking more about overall career trajectory and ugly endings rather than the specific context.
If we had been offered this deal in 1992: you get 30 years of quarterbacking excellence, 7 MVPs and 2 championships, but you're getting it in the form of two flawed human beings, one a conniver and the other a holder of a perpetual grudge against the world, I think we'd be a little ungrateful to quibble about the end.
Yes, there were worms in the apple, but it was delicious.

Hmm, I don't get it. I know it's Banshees. I know what happens to that character. I just can't put it together...

dream = playoffs (or maybe relevancy?). It's a fair question.
Honestly, I just loved that scene in the movie. It was my favorite.

Rodgers was a god the last two years - did things no one else could do. This year he was out-played by Jared Goff, and the result was a playoff miss and losing record. I am hopeful this is enough for both parties to move on, whether it's a trade or retirement for Rodgers it doesn't matter.
On the Quay thing - I don't at all agree with what he did, he was wrong with the push. But I do want to say that the trainer put his hands on Quay first, and it didn't appear necessary. There was plenty of room around Swift - putting his hands on an opponent wasn't necessary. Quay needs help with his emotions I"m just saying I don't like when people put their hands on me. Please don't attack me LOL
It would be easier to overlook if he hadn't already done it in the past.
Hopefully he learns from it and practices anger management because I think he will be one of the top ILBs in the game.

One of the worst ejections I have ever seen. Quay deserves a ton of slack for that. 100 percent if thats TB12 they dont eject him.

You can't put your hands on the medical staff. Easy ejection.

It was stupid reaction that cost the team but the pearl clutching over it is a bit over the top, it was a light shove on crowded football field after being made contact with from behind.

Love all McDonagh movies. In Bruges probably my favorite of all time.
