[QUOTE="Forget Favre, post: 520962, member: 2006"] Was anyone else impressed by how much Green Bay converted on 3rd and even 4th down against Minnesota? I have never seen a team do it that much. Anyone aware of any other games where a team didn't punt and scored on just about every drive especially after moving the chains after 3rd and 4th downs? [url]http://nfl.si.com/2013/10/28/aaron-rodgers-green-bay-packers-minnesota-vikings-christian-ponder/[/url] So it was Sunday in Minnesota. Time and again, the Vikings forced Rodgers’ offense into third downs. Almost without fail, Rodgers found his way out of the mess. On one particular occasion, a 3rd-and-2 in Minnesota territory, Rodgers avoided the pass rush to scramble for 14 yards. After trotting out of bounds, the Packers’ QB looked back to ensure there were no flags on the play, then turned, smirked and playfully signaled first down. Green Bay faced 18 third-down situations in its 44-31 win. Rodgers converted 13 of them — with two Vikings stops coming in the fourth quarter, with the game already decided. Just for good measure, the Packers moved the sticks on two fourth-down tries, too: a seven-yard completion to John Kuhn and later an eight-yarder to Jordy Nelson, both so comically easy that Rodgers would be forgiven if he let out a little chuckle along the way.
