[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 842309, member: 7261"] Again though, that is hindsight analysis, also using vision that Rodgers doesn't have. I get it and there are a ton of plays like this throughout the season that the narrative can be spun to make it look like more than it was. Plain and simple, Rodgers first read (Graham), wasn't a great option to try and pick up a first down, since the safety, Prince A., did not bite and follow Adams, who was the second read and well covered. Option 3 (MVS) was pretty much unavailable, since by the time Rodgers swung around to see him, the OL had already collapsed and Rodgers was sacked. I watched Butler and Silverstein dissect this exact same play for 9 1/2 fricking minutes. Their conclusion, which really wasn't that clear, but it seemed they both agreed that Graham would have been the best option based on the final outcome of the play. :roflmao: Which I really have to laugh at, because this is basically saying "always throw to your first option, even if it might not be your best option, because if you progress to your next options and fail, you have failed and are taking too much time. Give me a fricking break. What needed to happen for that play to be successful was either the Bears make a defensive mistake, which they didn't or Graham takes his route a bit deeper to the chains or the OL had to block better. Had Rodgers taken what appears to be his only viable option, the 1 yard pass to Graham, we probably aren't talking about this play today, except someone would be saying "Why did Rodgers throw a pass to Graham for 3 yards, they needed 6!"
