My response would be "Who cares?" Rodgers shouldn't have had to do that. His 4th-quarter comeback brings me no joy, since the score should have been a rout had a few plays been made earlier in the game.
Most overrated statistic in the book, in my opinion.

While i agree that it should have been a rout, had they taken advantage of some opportunities to put it away a few times, and some poor play calling(run, run, incomplete, rinse, repeat), i think there was a few important things to be happy about.
While coming from behind may very well be overated, this appears to be a different team than it was last year. The offense came through when it needed to, making the last 2 FGs and that late TD was truely a thing of beauty.
The defense coming up with turnovers in the red zone and in field goal range is HUGE. I think its easy to forget how close chicago was to scoring quite a few more points, if not for a couple of those turnovers, it could have easily been a rout by chicago! This defense is fun to watch, and by all indications looks like a clutch defense that isnt going to give the game away.
