Dunno, really think wind might have been a strong factor.

Es überlasse es einem Deutschen, prägnant und treffend zu sein. 😝

The knuckleball he pushed through for 3 looks like it would have been good from 45. That was possibly the ugliest made FG I've ever seen.

I was in the "I don't care if Teddy resigned Bakthiari or not. I thought he was going to be easily replaced for a lot less money. I was certainly wrong.

I don't get some of the Aaron Rodgers "hate" by some here. Yes, he tends to hold the ball too long. Without the injured legs, that hasn't been much of a problem, as he often would take off for big gains. Now he can't do that. But he also can't throw the ball away if he's not out of the pocket, as that would be a penalty.
The throw at the end to Nelson.......how can anyone find fault in that? Would you RATHER have a QB that CAN'T make that kind of throw?
Remember the win at Detroit last year? Or the throw to put the game in O.T. in the playoffs?
He's not just lucky, he has the arm to do that.
And Adams SHOULD have had 2 TD's. You sure can't blame Rodgers for those drops, can you? He put the ball right where it had to be.
Rodgers isn't perfect, by any means. But I'm sure as heck glad he's on OUR side!!!
And Adams......he was mad at himself. And without him we would have lost more games this year. He had a lapse. Every player does! He holds himself accountable!
James Jones had a similar problem. Then made up for it with some pretty awesome catches.
Adams will be fine! And I'm glad he is also on our side!

I also HATE when a quarterback turns their back to the line of scrimmage. When you are taught quarterback, you are taught to keep your eyes down the field.

As a quarterback, you're told to have a internal clock that counts to three. Once you get to three, you scramble for yards or throw it away. Every play I do this and after I hit 3 and he's not loading the rocket, I get nervous. Sometimes you have to take what the defense is giving you and make them pay.

I have to make this point again here. Just because I (we) see an open guy, that doesn't mean Aaron sees him or didn't already go through that progression. So I do give him a pass several times. There are some where you can see he has room to plant and throw and is looking shallow and throws it deep into coverage instead of hitting the open guy shallow.

Now he's also got a big game winning highlight for SportsCenter. Good for him.

Glad it also happened to work out for the team, in this instance.

beast (23-Jan) : I wonder why the Jets always hire defensive coaches to be head coach
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Still HC positions available out there. I wonder if Hafley pops up for one
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Trent Baalke is out as the Jaguars GM.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Jeff Hafley would have been a better choice, fortunately they don't know that. Someone will figure that out next off season

Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : Thank you. I rarely get sick, and even more rarely sick to the point I can't work.
wpr (22-Jan) : Beast- back to yesterday, I CAN say OSU your have been Michigan IF the odds of making the playoffs were more urgent.
dfosterf (22-Jan) : Glad to hear you are feeling a bit better.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : I've been near death ill last several days, finally feel less dead and site issues.
Zero2Cool (22-Jan) : It is a big deal. This host is having issues. It's frustrating.

beast (21-Jan) : Rankings were 1) Oregon 2) Georgia 3) Texas 4) Penn State 5) Notre Dame 6) Ohio State, none of the rest mattered
wpr (21-Jan) : Texas, ND and OSU would have been fighting for the final 2 slots.

wpr (21-Jan) : Zero, no. If there were only 4 teams Ohio State would have been one of them. Boise St and ASU would not have been selected.
Zero2Cool (21-Jan) : So that was 7 vs 8, that means in BCS they never would made it?
