Those stats are unreal...and double that to get Brady's stats for the year...I think next year is Rodgers year to win the MVP!!

It's amazing that you look at that and see how unbelievable it is for someone to put up those numbers...

Then you realize Tom Brady has played at that pace all year. Brady most likely owns the best two seasons a QB has ever had.

When we get Finley and Grant back next year, the entire league will be put on notice.

But you won't see anyone going gaga over it like they do for Tom.

"We are going to have a tough game next week because Chicago will make plays,'' Collins said, referring to the second-seed Bears, whom the Seattle Seahawks will play on Sunday in the divisional playoffs.

The Packers defense is giving up 12 ppg in their last 10 games.

I think this at least shows they are taking it one game at a time and not looking ahead.

And 4 dropped long TD passes

And one of those INT's should've been a TD and probably a win against the Lions.

Sick of everyone ranking Rodgers and stupid talk show people saying is he out of Favres shadow and so on. Rodgers to me is at the same level as Brady. I think the 2 best Qbs in the NFL are Brady and Rodgers.

Referee for this game is John Parry.

rilamann · Post #172 » by **rilamann** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 10:41 pm

The playoff makes you realize how many really good NFL refs have retired in the last 10 years or so.

Parry is pretty good,I'd say the best ref in the game today is Mike Carey,I was hoping for him.

trwi7 · Post #173 » by **trwi7** » Mon Jan 10, 2011 10:44 pm

Parry was the referee in one Packers game this year, week 1 against the Eagles. He was also the referee in the Eagles @ Giants game, also known as the DeSean Jackson punt return game.

In this game we can prove that we did beat Atlanta.

Looking way ahead but I just thought of something ironic.

Favre could never win in Dallas,wouldn't it be ironic if the first game Rodgers wins in Dallas is the Super Bowl.

It's already awesome because Rodgers already won someplace that Favre never did and Rodgers did it twice in a season.

I hope that's the mentality this week: We gave one away the first time.

Hope we don't have to read/hear about this crap all week.

With the game tied, 17-17, and 49 seconds left, Ryan calmly led the Falcons on a six-play drive to set up a game-winning field goal by Matt Bryant.

No mention of that drive going a whopping 20 yards. Woo, what a calm stud leading that drive!

if both the Packers and Falcons play a perfect game, I think that the Packers would win in a blowout. I personally just think the Packers have a lot more talent on both sides of the ball. The Falcons have a better return game and a better running game, but the Packers have the advantage everywhere else.

I just think its much more likely that the Falcons execute at a higher rate than the Packers and this game will be a close one. The Packers consistently do make minor mental mistakes during most games (dropped balls, dumb penalties, bad ball protection, missed special team opportunities, etc). Its something new each game. But since the Packers have so much talent and are generally well prepared for the game, they are able to keep things close despite in game mental lapses.
