Wasn't that game mid-2009?
All season there were concerns about holding on to the ball too long and being too indecisive. He was accused of being worried about his stats only and not be willing to throw into tight windows. He often moved his way into trouble in the pocket.
But in that Cowboys game, he and M3 seemed to find a balance.
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Oh I see what's going on here. I was assuming we were talking about Rodger's stint replacing injured Favre at Dallas in Nov. 2007. A week before that was when I saw Rodgers practice before the Thanksgiving game at Detroit and thought he was a keeper. Then he proved it at Dallas.

Gotcha. That fill in stint definitely moved the needle for AR with the public.
But there were still lots of complaints about his game into 2009.
But mostly I am contending we gotta give Hundley a few games to get it in gear with and against starters. And while his HC figures out how to help the kid get the ball downfield.
There is a gif of Hundley in the pocket early in the game. Pocket is noisy but clean and NO ONE is in the middle of the field. But Nelson, who probably had a middle of the field route, has noticed the single high safety drifted over to the Offense's right. So Jordy can run a go from the slot and be uncovered for a TD. He raises his hand but Hundley's eyes have come down to the pass rush, looking for an escape lane.
I bet it was a route adjustment and BH didn't quite see it as he was distracted by some pressure that was not imminent. Its going to take a while.

One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

No longer the member of any fan clubs. I'm tired of jinxing players out of the league and into obscurity.
I saw Arod's wonderful 2006 game against NE at Lambeau Field. Favre got knocked out of the game and in came ARod. He was horrible and broke his foot. He was IRed that week.
I was happy we drafted Brohm and Flynn in 2008 after Favre had retired. I remember thinking he wouldn't be able to hold up to a full season of NFL pounding. Glad I was wrong.
But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.
