[QUOTE="TJV, post: 537579, member: 4300"] The Packers had 70 passing plays of 20+ yards and 16 of 40+ yards in the 2011 regular season. Only a fool believes that’s all YAC. Here’s a link to the play I was talking about. This was against Baltimore this season and TE Taylor was Rodgers’ protector. If you were watching - particularly during the 2011 season - you saw this play quite a bit.
