This marks the second time that Rodgers has made a boneheaded decision to take the Packers out of FG range.

Harris remains a both a very good coverage ST player, and a very dumb one as a return man.

I don't know what happened to him after 2013, but he has been a very poor return guy after being such a good one to start his career.

He's playing a real defense facing great coverage and steady pressure.
He's played 'real' defenses many times before and has played fine. He's a damn good QB. Just playing like a dipshit so far today.

Real talk. If Dak has the offense sputtering like this for the entire 1st half I go to the bullpen and tell Romo the game is his in the second half.

Let's see how Rodgers screws them out of a scoring opportunity this time around.

I don't consider that a great play, I consider that to be an extremely lucky outcome for Rodgers.

Rogers could take that routine to dancing with the stars.

Rodgers is fearless!

I bet Buck came in his khakis saying that.

Pressure makes fools of the best QB's.
That's the point. He hasn't been getting immediate pressure as much as the stats would show. As has been pointed out by a few here, he's been holding the ball far too long and taking sacks. And he did the same with the intentional grounding. It wasn't the 'real defense' that forced those. It was him trying to do too much and being an idiot.

Rodgers is off the reservation. He is doing what he does.

If it works, all is fine. For a lot of this game, it hasn't.

That has to be a deal in the film room each week.

I don't, Dak has proven time and time again that he will find a way to win. I won't abandon that because of a slow start. I guess if we fall behind by 3 TDs or something it becomes a thought but otherwise absolutely not.

I said the same thing. It was kind of a reckless play that happened to work out.

Felt like he was close to being sacked about 3 different times on that play. Looked like one of the pass rushers had a shot to strip sack him from behind too.
