The game from the stands looked off...it appeared Rodgers had a "bad game"..His throws seemed to be short..There wasnt to much wind but it was cold...Not chilly, but cold..
The defense really suffered...They truly miss Collins..
I just looked into the game stats, and Rodgers was 3-9 on throws to Finley & Jennings. Those, obviously, are our key 2 mismatches usually. Tampa took them away pretty well, of course both guys got dinged up a bit as well, and Rodgers missed Jennings once deep, while Finley was wide open on that same play.
Finley also dropped that key, perfect pass on 3rd down.
Nick Collins was so underrated..... he was our Ed Reed.
Did anyone else think about him when Blount jumped over Williams today? He hit Tramon's head, the top of it... that's the same damn type of play where Jonathon Stewart hit Collins. What a tragic fluke that one was... this one could have been the same.
Rodgers is unhappy with the way he played today.
So is Crosby. Missed the FG, and also I don't believe he had any touchbacks.
We were lucky on the Masthay play early in the game after they stopped us on our first drive.
I'd say overall, we played a D+ game for us today.
Rodgers was off.... the running game never got going.
The pass defense made Freeman, Mike Williams, Kellen Winslow have their best games of the year.
The run defense was okay, but the one 55-yard Blount run was atrocious with 8 missed tackles, including 3 LBers.
