we need our TE back ... was pretty curious how we didnt use johnson and like someone said in the chat; they arnt going to run it much.

I do think rodgers was wipping the ball pretty hard so maybe why our receivers were having a bit of time catching them but ya I did see some missed catches that should of been caught.

nail biter for the 2nd 1/2 that was for sure

I don't remember a drop by Quarless. Are you thinking of the play where he got open over the middle and Rodgers threw the ball way behind him? If you are, that was not a drop. It was one of maybe two or three bad throws that Rodgers made all night.

Did anyone notice how often GB ran a play action pass? I was too wrapped up in the game to pay attention.
Trying to think back to the game today, I know they did run a few PA passes but I don't think they ran very many. I think they may have wonted to give ARod as much time as possible to look over his receivers and to avoid the blitzes.
I think a few kudos needs to go to the OL , backs and TEs who did a pretty good job of picking up all the Pitt threw at them.

The only thing I will say in this thread and will wait for a bit to expand on the overall thoughts on it.

We won and I don't want to come off as negative on this.

However if you look at the first two drives with runs sprinkled in and effective running I might add, we scored TD's. Then we went into a pass only mode and it wasn't until late that we scored 10 more points, but take note of the number of hits Aaron took over that time verse the hits during the early drives.

I knew we could expose the secondary of the Steelers, and if we didn't drop the ball as many times as we did it probably wasn't even close as a game as it was.

So hats off to the pass happy approach.

However I will continue to reside in the we would have even been more dominant in this game if we wouldn't have abandoned the run over the last 2 and a half quarters with the turnovers we generated and the razor sharp passing of Rodgers.

Many ways to skin a cat.

I agree, PackZ--I'm not going to go negative on the play calling. McCarthy called a good enough game to win it, and that's all that matters.

I did share your observations on when during the game the offense was moving well and when we were running the ball.

This game was a poster-child for the pass-is-all-you-need crowd, but in my opinion, that poster child is one ugly baby--we needed three turnovers (leading to a combined 21 pts, 7 of them due solely to the defense on a pick 6) to win by 6 points.

That pass-happy attack would not have been enough to win by itself without the turnovers. The Steelers offense outgained Green Bay's--despite passing for fewer yards--because they did not abandon the running game.

In any event, we won, we're the Super Bowl Champs, and McCarthy did a terrific job preparing the team for the game. They came out hungry, and they came out sharp. Dom Capers deserves kudos, holding the Steelers to 3 points (and helping the Pack to a 21-3 point lead) until Woodson and Shields went out at the end of the 1st half.
