With less than two minutes remaining in the first quarter of Sunday’s Packer game, down 7-0, Aaron Rodgers saw Bears’ defensive lineman Mario Edwards Jr. bearing down on him. Rodgers changed direction and threw the ball away just as Edwards Jr. tackled him. Apparently proud of his “quarterback hurry” stat, Edwards Jr. stood over Rodgers, pointed his finger at him and ran his mouth. The referee who was watching immediately threw a flag for taunting. That penalty ignited Rodgers and the Packer offense. The Green and Gold, playing in their home jerseys, drove 80 yards, including the fifteen yard unsportsmanlike penalty, to tie the score and begin a momentum swing they never relinquished.
