Aaron Rodgers -- Hurt or just playing very poorly thus far

[HarveyWallbangers]

Detroit took the leads and Rodgers led the Packers on a drive to retake the lead. The defensive TDs were after Green Bay had taken the lead back on offense. The fourth quarter comeback stat is relatively meaningless in and of itself, but a lot of Brett's comebacks were of the same variety. Of Brett's 43 comebacks, how many were like the one he had this weekend? I'd guess under half of them.

Okay that is fair.

This article on ESPN explains what I'm talking about regarding game winning comebacks.

It was the first time in his career that Brett threw a game winning TD pass in the final 10 seconds. It was the 10th time in his 273 games that Brett threw a game winning TD pass in the final 2 minutes of a game. He's done it once every 27.3 games (a little bit more than once every two seasons). That isn't in insult. Just pointing out how tough it is. Something to remember when you are watching ARod.

Funny that if the Packers get to the end of the game and are up by three or seven or whatever with two minutes or less, and the Vikes have the ball deep in their own territory, it will be exactly what we all think is part of the game plan: make Favre beat you.

Well, I want Favre throwing 40 plus times, but I don't want him with the ball down by 3 with just under two minutes to go... that is for sure. In that situation, at home, and now that his teammates completely trust him, I just don't want to see that happen. I still like favre but I if were going to lose either lose by double digits, or because we somehow fail on a drive at the end. I would hate to lose because #4 turned around and drove it with under 2 minutes for a game winner. That would be a sick, sick feeling.

It is funny how one play is all people remember. Sure he threw an amazing strike some 30+ yards down the field right at the back of the end zone. Simply amazing. What about the rest of the game? Not so much. Just think, if that DB holds onto the ball that hit him square in the hands, pick six, and everyone is singing a completely different tune about Favre. Woodson almost always hangs on to his opportunities...
