With Matt Flynn throwing for 480 yards and 6 TDs...

[Rudi]

But not to hijack the thread, Rodgers is still the MVP. Matt Flynn earned himself a nice contract next year I bet he will be starting somewhere

 

[NAHSTE]

Oh, you mean the Andy Dalton who led his team to the playoffs in his rookie season with a rookie #1 wideout and an offensive coordinator in his first year with the team. The same Andy Dalton that was drafted after Jake Locker, Christian Ponder, Blaine Gabbert all other rookie QBs who he outperformed. The same Andy Dalton who became only the 3rd rookie QB in HISTORY to throw for over 3000 yards [Peyton Manning and Cam Newton were the other 2]. Oh, THAT andy dalton.

:seeyou:

Yeah, I compared him to Matt fucking Flynn. That's high praise, so you should be thanking me.

I kept agreeing until I got to the bold part. Then I :yao:



Like that is supposed to be impressive...

 

[Houston]

Despite this, I think Flynn will be a very average QB on another team. I can't help but compare him to Matt Schaub.

Matt Schaub average? Ha!

 

[JBregz]

I always knew Matt Flynn was good, once I seen he was like a 75 on Madden as a backup.

 

[Houston]

Rodgers has a better TD/INT ratio, played a game and a half less, led his team to 14-1, and has the head to head victory. Not trying to be a homer, but I don't see much of a discussion.

It's pretty safe to say Brees was the best option out there for his team. But could the Packers have won tonight's game had Matt Flynn been playing instead of Rodgers? Obviously one can only speculate, but I'd like to think so.

A better question would be.....would the receivers drop a dozen passes if Matt Flynn was playing QB?

Matt Flynn being in at quarterback would have solved all the problems of the receivers dropping the football all over the place. Matt Flynn would have stopped John Kuhn from having his offensive lineman knock the ball out of his hand and cause a fumble. Hell, Matt Flynn would have stopped EVERY fumble from happening. Matt Flynn would have found a way to get the running game going and not end up being the game's leading rusher like Rodgers was.

Short answer: HELL NO.

Long answer: what game were you watching? Rodgers gave them as best of a chance as they had. The Packers lost mostly because of one reason: they didn't EXECUTE. Even with the horrible officiating calls, the Packers managaed a way to shoot themselves. If the Packers just manage to hold on to/catch the football, the score could have just as easily been 31-20 in favor of the Packers.

The only play I can think of that resulted in a turnover that wasn't a result of Green Bay just shooting themselves was the Osi strip sack on Rodgers. Rodgers gets that pass off just a split-second sooner, that play goes down as a touchdown due to blown/poor coverage because Jennings(?) was WIDE OPEN. Then again, the Packers were dropping passes all night, so who's to say Jennings wouldn't have dropped that one.

Rodgers single-handedly kept a number of those drives alive because when his receivers were blanketed, he made plays on his feet to save the drive. I think Rodgers played an outstanding game, but the Packers as a team didn't execute. The miscues in this game had NOTHING to do with who was behind center.

 

[citizenerased]

Brett Favre would've won this game.

 

[mgoblue2290]

Brett Favre would've won this game.

Except for the fact that he lost to the Giants in 08 in Lambeau.

 

[Houston]

As much as I don't like him, Farve's legacy lives to see another season.

 

[shag773]

Brett Favre would've won this game.

Favre already played this game....4 years ago...and threw an interception to end a playoff game....again...

Is Houston an idiot? Yes.

Please don't tell me you are implying the Packers were screwed over by the officials................

Rodgers also overthrew Jennings on the first drive, he was wide open by the endzone for that too.

I have....either way it doesn't make sense. The two big blown calls the Packers capitalized on with TD's. So they didn't shoot themselves in the foot there.

You have to be trolling. HAVE to be.

He is obviously implying that even with the horrible calls that went the Packers way, they still shot themselves by fumbling and dropping the football. He is not just referring to the two drives in which the bad calls happened, he is talking about the entire game.

No. I'm not.

You have to be an idiot.

Have to be.
