Rodgers didn't play well at all. Two interceptions deep in Seattle territory - the first one anticipating an offside jump without actually seeing whether a flag was thrown, and the second a pass to no one. And then general futility in scoring in the RZ and putting the game away. And that too with Earl Thomas and Richard Sherman virtually dead.
You forgot about the completely wide open pass to Cobb which Rodgers missed, that easily would have been a TD and would have pretty much iced the game away. I forget if it was in the first or second half when it happened, but i do remember yelling at the TV at the time, damn Aaron, how the hell did you blow that throw because there was nobody covering Cobb.
My memory is faulty on this, but didn't he also miss a throw on 3rd down late in the 4th quarter which basically would have allowed us to run out most of the clock and instead we had to punt?
For as great as Aaron was in the regular season over his dominant stretch, his playoff performances have been much more up and down.
