Rodgers has such tunnel vision for Nelson, that he takes extra time - precious seconds and fractions of seconds to come off him, so that if the Pats have reasonable pressure, he gets sacked or has to throw it away. Will be interesting to see which team is more disciplined and patient. Will Cheat be patient to stick to the scheme even if Rodgers is prepped to go elsewhere with the rock, and will Rodgers actually be more patient to go to other receivers. If so, will they be on the same page (esp. D. Adams).

This is it, to me. If Rodgers doesn't force the issue to Cobb/Nelson and is willing to throw to Quarless, Adams, Rodgers, Lacey (maybe even Kuhn?), then this Packer team can cover the ground, albeit more slowly than they'd like, and score enough to win - if the Packer D can get after Brady and shut down the run.

Big ifs, I know. But patience for Rodgers is key. And not patience as in waiting forever for Nelson or Cobb, but patience in settling for shorter gains to other receivers.
