He did his job.
45 points.....geez....if our D would have SHOWED UP we would have won. How much can one guy do?
Yes....he threw an INT.
Driver fumbled.
That cost us 14 points. Yet our O never gave up, never quit. And brought us back to tie it at 35. Then our pourous D gave up yet ANOTHER TD. And our O came back AGAIN! How many comebacks can you expect? If our D did their jobs at ALL in the 2nd half, we would be going on to play New Orleans.
ANY blame belongs on our D, NOT on Rodgers.
Remember the playoff game a couple years ago against Seattle? Ryan Grant fumbled TWICE, giving up 14 points. Then he came back and ran for over 200 yards. He made up for his mistakes.
So did AR Sunday. He can't tackle, or rush the opposing QB, or intercept or breakup passes. He did his job. 420 yards worth. More yards passing in one game then any Packer QB EVER. Yet i see some saying it's HIS fault?


Go figure.

<steps on soapbox>
I've said it over and over again. Those people aren't Packer fans. If they were, they would have been fans before #4. If they became fans during his era, and their loyalties lie with him first and foremost, then they need to get off the bandwagon they jumped on. I have no hate towards BF or those who are BF fans first. Just don't pretend to be a Packer fan, then.

A-Rod acquitted himself exceptionally well in that last game. He showed poise, confidence and was unflappable after the first series. Can one blame him for having a few butterflies in the early part of his first playoff game? I certainly remember another young Packer gunslinger who had a tendency to get hyped up for big games and overthrow his receivers.

I have no doubt we will be back in the playoffs again. We have a lot of areas to improve upon next year, but I feel like I did in, say, 94 or 95. Not a great team, but damn good, and on the verge.

That's just it. Yes, Rodgers screwed up on the first play. But after that, he was amazing. It's not like he played lousy and cost the Packers the game. The defense (or lack there of) is what cost us the game.
He threw for over 400 yards, and kept punching the whole time.
I sure as heck don't blame him for the ending. Had our D showed up and stopped the Cardinals AT ALL, we would have won.
But as we know, they couldn't stop anyone on the Cards.

I am going to show you how stupid your logic is

Giants loss..

Last int ( in case you forgot he threw one in the 4th q too)....Last Int led to 3 points, Giants won by 3, case closed

2004 wildcard vs the Viks Final 31-17......14 points from 2 of Bretts 4 ints...Would been tied game other wise

4th and 26 game.....Over time Brett tosses int, Philly gets Fg to win..

Thanks for letting us know Brett cost us those games

Rogers is my Fav GB QB right behind Starr. I can't wait to see him on the field again.

Anyone who is placing blame on Rodgers for that loss doesn't know anything about football. Sure, he missed some opportunities and made a couple of bad throws, but that happens in any game.

Look at the team we were up against - - not like we were playing the Rams. The "NO QUIT" attitude belongs to the best players in the league; Rodgers will continue to make great plays (hell, in time to come, even Peyton Manning will be green with envy of his skills!)
