"He has had terrific moments, like his 50-yard touchdown pass to Greg Jennings that beat the Chicago Bears in the season opener this year. He also drove the team into Bears territory last December for what should have been the game-winning field goal. He did the same at Minnesota last year, albeit only to the 35, resulting in a 52-yard attempt."
This is what always troubles me about evaluation of players in the NFL. The circumstances are always so important. In that final drive at MN, Rodgers got a break with a tipped pass to Driver, but also on the last set of downs, the Packer offense was incredible conservative. Presumably McCarthy was calling all those runs up the gut, and Rodgers was never allowed to pass the Packers closer. So was it Rodger's fault that the FG was from 52 yards?
