This is an embarrassment but I love it. I don't think I could tolerate Rodgers potentially winning the Super Bowl.

 

[JayNM]

So, here's what I'm seeing about Rodgers.

He is being overwhelmed by blitzes, specially coming from the side, making him unable to buy time with his feet by scrambling, like he always does.

Because GB's playbook relies so much on Rodgers and his ability to throw from whenever he is, they tend to be longer, with slow developments (10 yard routes and such).

To make matters worse, GB's running game has been even worse than the usual. Rodgers will not win this game by himself

Let's not get ahead of ourselves. Pats need to beat the squealers first. People have doubted atlanta all year.

You're the one talking about how tough it would be to beat the Falcons? I simply pointed out they are one of the worst defenses to ever play in a conference championship game.

I missed the whoever part in your initial post. My bad.

Run game is non-existent for GB. One dimensional. ATL just sits back and plays the pass.

Pats should take a cue from the falcons today. Don't mess around and go out there and jump on them.

 

[Foxypats]

Just end the game now and put GB out of their misery !

 

[LightSkinSmurf]

So many damn drops this is the ultimate choke job.

He doesnt play defense.

0 points vs the 25th ranked defense.

Since this game is basically over, let's spend a little time being hypothetical and talking Pats - Falcons - specifically, how to defend Atlanta's offense. Many will say to put Butler on Julio, but I wonder if it may be prudent to do it like they did in 2014 and put Butler (a.k.a. Revis) on their 2nd best guy, Sanu, to lock that guy down, then have the big guy Rowe (a.k.a. Browner) cover Julio with a lot of help over the top. Ryan in the slot can cover the third guy, and Chung can cover the TEs... and Hightower, Roberts & the gang can do their best to stop the run while Flowers keeps pressure on Ryan.

Worried about first stopping Antonio Brown and Le'veon Bell tonight.

Can we borrow Talib for such a game? He's owned Jones in their last matchup.

Green Bay is crashing and burning. Good God they look like a mess

 

[BobDigital]

Wow. Rodgers is the QB and the leader. He has played like crap. Much worse than Brady did last year against Denver.
I mean the GB defense can't stop the Falcons, so that isn't on Rodgers.
But Rodgers has not done anything to lead his team today. Probably his worst game of the year.

I do blame Rodgers. He is having a bad game. I just also can't put the entire blame on him. His whole team is sucking. He is the leader but he is getting no help.

That worse defense has held the packers to 0 points.

I want to beat Pitt. Let's save this for hopefully after they win.

The blueprint for Rodgers is here, he hates being pressured on every play and knocked down. Shame this blueprint doesn't work for every quarterback that has ever played the game.

Haven't seen much of Nelson this half. I think that pain shot wore off.

sounds good to me. Plus, stop the run.....lol

How does one defend the Falcons ? They have a lot of weapons.
