How would you feel - you helped get them that far, but couldn't finish the deal? Do they hold some kind of feeling deep down that they won it on the backs of their teammates?

I'm curious to hear what you think. I am so happy for both of them - I guess as a fan I felt a little cheated, not through any fault of their own, but I wanted to see them both play their hearts out on that stage for the full game, and make great plays in the biggest game of their life.

I felt pretty bad for them, that they couldn't finish, especially Driver. Will this help motivate them next year? Will they have any qualms about calling themselves champions, and proudly wearing that ring?

Cheated is an interesting word, but I understand what you mean. I think that since the first half was 21-10, and the second half was 10-15, Driver and Woodson can appreciate that they played very important roles in the first half and helped solidify the win. I'm sure they aren't real happy that they were unable to finish the game, but really, without them, we probably wouldn't have even had the opportunity to win another Lombardi. They just need to remind themselves of that.

It was a bummer, but judging by their reactions after the game, I don't think their injuries spoiled the championship for them. By that point I think they were so bonded with their teammates that they felt like they were a part of the action, even standing on the sidelines cheering.

Well it's not like they came up lame in practice or something, Driver got injured after making a couple catches including a first down and Woody went out after making a TD saving knock down, can't go out much better than that if you have to leave early!

I don't think so. Both were important parts of not only the SB, but the entire season.
Had the Packers lost, THEN i bet they would feel bad. They would probably be blaming themselves for the loss.
But the win saved all that!

You're right Cheesey, they would've been sick, sick, sick, if the Packers had lost. They never would've gotten over it.

I don't think they feel cheated. Disappointed they could not contribute on the field in the 2nd half.

If not for DD or Wood the Pack wouldn't have even been there.

End of story.

I agree with Twinkiegorilla.

You might as well ask the same question about every non-starter who remained on the sidelines or saw limited action in the game.

beast (6h) : Wow, 95% drop in investment revenue? Would be interesting to hear the details of why...
dfosterf (25-Jul) : It's my one day deal complaint dept. on shareholder meeting day
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Probably a homer access credential intimidation kinda thing
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Meathead "journalists" skip this, concentrating on operational revenue when convenient. They switch when net revenue is more favorable.
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Resulting in an actual drop of net revenue of 12.5%. She is from Minnesota. Just sayin'
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Any plans to hold Maureen Smith (CFO) accountable for a 95% drop in investment revenue?
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : In your face, HBO!

dfosterf (25-Jul) : Possibly hit his head leaning into the glass protecting the food in the cafateria
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Maybe a low flying drone
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Did Savion Williams run into a goalpost or something?
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : also, no bueno when a guy starts getting concussions right off the bat in his career
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Concussion is worse. Banks probably vet off day via back booboo claim
Mucky Tundra (25-Jul) : @AndyHermanNFL Jordy Nelson out at camp today. No word if he’s in play for one of the two open roster spots ; )
dfosterf (25-Jul) : Is that better or worse than Banks bad back?
Zero2Cool (25-Jul) : Savion concussion ... not good.
packerfanoutwest (24-Jul) : Aaron Rodgers’s first pass of first team period was picked off
Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : tbh I didn't hear of his passing
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Cosby Show. Malcom Jamal Warner I think is real name
Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : I was thinking of Ozzy and Hulk
Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Who's Theo?
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : How is Theo alliteration?
Mucky Tundra (24-Jul) : Bad week for people whose names are alliterations
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hulk Hogan gone too.
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Oh, it's toe injury
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Hope it's not serious. that would stink
dfosterf (24-Jul) : Sounds like an ankle not a knee for Fields
dfosterf (24-Jul) : Ya Flaccp on Browns
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : Maybe Tyrod Taylor instead
Zero2Cool (24-Jul) : He's on Browns, right?

Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : No sir. I did not.
dfosterf (23-Jul) : You didn't get free childcare when you were at work?
wpr (23-Jul) : These guys make hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. Pay for their own childcare.
dfosterf (23-Jul) : 2nd issue. Number 1 issue was no gameday childcare. 1 of 3 teams not providing it
Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Suppose if locker room is main issue, we sitting pretty
wpr (23-Jul) : I thought so Mucky. In those useless player polls GB always rates high overall. Locker is a part of it.
Mucky Tundra (23-Jul) : Wasn't the locker room just updated like 6 or 7 years ago?
Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : I have forum updated on different site. We'll see how this one goes before going to that
Zero2Cool (23-Jul) : Elgton Jenkins has a back injury, is expect to end contract dispute

wpr (23-Jul) : The site is much more better.
