[QUOTE="NOMOFO, post: 584777, member: 9687"] It's a common theme for a "select few" on this forum that they feel more enlightened or somehow "forward thinking" to constantly downplay and understate every single positive aspect of the Packers. The Packers dropped almost 500 yards on the Pats. I don't care how anyone wants to spin that, that's no joke. Was it a blowout on the scoreboard? Nope! ... but how anyone can downplay 500 yards of offense is beyond me. [B]Fact is, McCarthy and Aaron are well aware at this point what they have going. [/B]They both know they need to just take the points and not take a ton of chances because they are more than capable of scoring very quickly if and when the game dictates that. Hence... taking the field goals instead of forcing balls or play calls. It was clear to me on several of those red zone throws that Rodgers was clearly not going to let the Pats come away with balls. The Pats on the other hand couldn't get into the red zone enough to have those same chances for field goals so they, ironically enough, didn't score as many points as the Packers. Funny how that works out. 500 yards of offense dropped on the Pats. Let that sink in a minute. [/QUOTE]
