If that is what Rodgers is saying.. then all he has to do is look in the mirror.. the only thing stopping the Packers yesterday in the second half was turnovers.. not the running game or offensive sets..

The Packers were kicking the defenses ass in the first half.. plain an simple. Turnovers and the defense not getting off the field..

That is why I think his comment has little to do with the offensive playcalling.. just you can't keep making mistakes and taking the offense off the field and the defense has to get the ball back for the offense. The offense wasn't on the field in the second half.

BTW.. I wonder how many would be roasting another QB after putting some of the blame for the picks on the receivers? ;)

Pack - Gregorious should have out-muscled the CB for the first INT. Sharpe would have had that and James Jones probably as well. Finley fo shizzle.

The second INT was clearly on Aaron and that pass, had it been completed, would have been the knock out punch. Yes, they would still have time but thinking of it now, it would have been like the Desmond Howard KR TD in the '96 SB. Took the morale right out of the opponent.

Aaron threw it up far but not deep. Poorly thrown ball. Gregorious had the CB by a step and a half and a better thrown ball would have been a TD as the CB wouldn't have caught Gregorious.

zombie - I think we agree on the appropriate blame, but not on the same passes.

Whichever pick was in the redzone was on Aaron Rodgers IMO. Supposedly it was a 'back shoulder fade' or something like that, but he threw to the inside into the coverage anyway. A bad throw no matter what the route.

As for the bomb on 1st and 10, Greg did have a decent chance and should have muscled that from the cb, esp. being closer to the ball, but it wasn't a wise or particularly well thrown ball either, so I fault Aaron Rodgers for 1.5 ints.
