Green Bay gets kept alive on a face mask call that wasn't even a face mask with no time on the clock, then Aaron Rodgers throws a Hail Mary and connects for the win.
I'm kind of tired of Brady and Rodgers and how defenders aren't allowed to breathe on them without it being 15 yards.
terrible call but an understandable call by the refs without the benefit of replay but what a horrible strategy defensively by the Detroit Lions in the endzone, why are defenders running back and looking away from the ball while it is in the air....they should all be just standing in the endzone awaiting the throw and cause as much havoc where it lands
I'm almost certain that Detroit started the two plays before that big first down (pass over the middle for 25 yards) with a few seconds on the play clock. So if they would have brought the clock down to 1 second on each of those downs, likelihood is that the clock would have been down to the 2 minute warning and Green Bay with no timeouts, victory formation. Instead there was 2:07 when Detroit was forced to snap the ball on the new set of downs. It's all about clock management, my friends.
The more I think about it, they should have a halo rule for Brady and Rodgers, you shouldn't be allowed to come within 3 feet of them. If they get injured, there are no great qb's left. Then you have a Brees at the end of his career, Eli, Big Ben, Rivers, and Romo, then next level is Luck, Cam and Wilson, then everyone else in the dogshit pile.
