Big matchups for Rollins in Tate and Marvin Jones. He needs a good solid game for his confidence. No doubt Randall and Rollins are playmaking corners! Only thing is we haven't seen much of it this season so far anyway. This is a good game for them both to build up confidence going into bye week, they will need to bring their A games vs NYG and OBJ, Cruz and Sheppard.
Or how about 3TDs in 1st Half!!!!
Except for the pass defense.
I don't believe that would be considered a sack since he had broken the tackle box and essentially became a running back.
Sorry, I can't buy that, I need more convincing.
Yep... and if you watched the play... just as he stepped out of bounds Rodgers held the ball forward in an unsuccessful attempt to get the spot of the ball up to the line of scrimmage. It was pretty clear to me at the time that he was trying to keep a sack out of the books.
neither of us can prove what was on Rodgers mind, but he has said things in interviews before that lead me to believe that the sack stat is something he definitely thinks about in situations exactly like that. Add that to the fact that the spot of the ball after the play being at the line of scrimmage or 3 inches behind it would not affect the chances of getting the eventual first down on subsequent plays, leads me to believe that Rodgers was thinking about avoiding the sack. All I can say is go back and watch that play... Rodgers was clearly trying to get the ball past a specific point, the original line of scrimmage. The only reason for that would be to avoid a sack.
