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.
