Quote:Tremendous job by Aaron Rodgers in the comeback win over the Bears. When his entire skill set, including the mental part of the game is included, I believe he's the most complete QB in the NFL. Having Randall Cobb back also made a huge difference for Green Bay.

 

The bottom line is the Lions threw away the season losing 6 games with leads in the 4th QTR in the last 7 games and the Bears failed after only needing one win in their final two games.   Including against an Eagles team that didn't have anything tangible in the standings to play for and having the Packers in two 4th Down situations before Rodgers and Co. delivered that dagger. The Packers might have not earned the division title in a conventional way but they were the most clutch team in the division in the last month of the season. Whatever happens in the playoffs,  they are the only team in the division that had a successful season.

 

Congrats, JW!

 

I thought it was sweet that the GW TD was Rodgers to Cobb. That made it even better, knowing they were both out a long time with broken bones. I fully expected to miss the playoffs when they were out.

 

The next time you talk about the Lions, you probably will say something about their coach getting fired. Jim Shwartz is on his way out before the 49ers fly to Green Bay. It it going to be a wild weekend for the NFC North.
