For all the talk about Aaron Rodgers not practicing this week, or being on a short leash for Sunday’s matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, it was the same old Green Bay Packers pushing their opponent to the limit and then some in Week 2.
Officially, the game ended in a 29-29 tie. For the Packers it meant a whole lot more. Rodgers orchestrated his usual late-game heroics and put Green Bay in position to win. If not for a missed field goal from Mason Crosby at the end of regulation, Rodgers would’ve been canonized.
Instead the Packers will take a 1-0-1 record into Week 3 with the knowledge that even with one leg, their franchise quarterback can still make the necessary plays.
