So did this game qualify as "clutch" or "4th Q Comeback"?

    Just happy that Kuhn made a hell of a block, Rodgers is an athletic QB and that the Bears screwed the pooch on the coverage.

    Call it clutch, comeback, or whatever. I call it beating the MF'ing Bears and that's good enough for me.
    All hail the Ruler of the Meadow!

      Around game five or six a buddy of mine started in on the whole "Rodgers can't lead a team to a comeback win" thing. He was incessant about it, just incessant. So we were watching the game together, and on the fourth and eight, just before the snap, he started in again. And then Rodgers threw the touchdown.

      Hell yes it was a comeback. Look at that drive; there were two fourth down conversions - one on a pass - before that last fourth and eight with 46 seconds left. If leading your team to the winning touchdown with a long drive, and finishing it off with under a minute left, is not a comeback drive, then what the hell is?

        If I was a Lions fan, I would spend my time complaining about other team's QBs as well, rather than wonder why the Lion's QB doesn't want to improve his mechanics.

            Thing is, my buddy is a Packer fan.

              Surprised he's not on the Game Day thread.

                He also threw two costly interceptions and easily could have had a third if Bears safety Chris Conte hadn't let the ball sail right between his arms.
                Easily? Sail? Who writes this crap? Conte was stretched out to get his mitts on that ball. That would have been one hell of a great interception. That's a classic Rodgers breaking ball that he likes to throw so that only the receiver has a chance. Hell of a lucky grab by Scoreless on that one - probably the deflection off Conte took enough off so he could snag it.

                  I'm here to help Bobblehead! Besides keeping some odd hours recently, I can't help being more kickass at thread starting.

                  Well, football can be really confusing at times. I mean we've seen interceptions ruled as touchdowns. So while I agree, I just wanted folks here to clarify. Your input is valued Fritz.

                      No shit. That TD pass to Cobb with under a minute to go was thrown while Rodgers was scrambling to his left - something only a couple other QBs can do.

                        Did you hear the idiot Stafford say recently that he doesn't need a QB coach? This goof will never amount to anything with this mindset.

                          The hive was aghast at his insouciance regarding QB coaching.

                            The Bears didn't blow the coverage. It was an all-out blitz with 7 guys. You don't expect the QB to be upright long enough for someone to get 30 yards downfield. You can't blitz 7 and cover the remaining field with only 4 in the secondary. It was just a great job by the Packer offense of getting at least someone on all 7 rushers and Rodgers being athletic enough to get away and give Cobb the time to get behind the defense.
                            It's such a GOOD feeling...13 TIME WORLD CHAMPIONS!!

                              Thread is 2 days old, and no one has pointed out that the win does not qualify according to the standard that were decided on. Win has to be by 4 points or less. 5 points, no dice!

                                Not a close game QB, but a 4th Q comeback!
                                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.
