Odd-looking collapse by Adams, might have a groin strain.

Nope, it's the ankle for sure.

Let's see the Great Aaron Rodgers pull this off without Nelson and Adams. You know, basically the same type of weapons Brady has had for most of his career.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a repeat of the Ice Bowl finish here, minus the ice.

at least in the end they didn't lay down. i'd have really liked for them to get to the conf. championship game as it's been 20 years. ah well.

Smarmy looking Garrett.
Humblebrag time here but I played baseball Garret growing up and for a guy who was a stud athlete from the jump (our team saved roster spots for him and his brother because they went to school in another part of the state and wouldn't join us until June), he was an incredibly nice kid. I don't know what he is like now but I still root for the guy.

Also Edelman and Branch and Moss and Welker. The no weapons trope is overblown.
Only one guy on that list is a true #1 wide out, and he was here for what, 2 years? And during that time, Brady annhilated the record books. I'm obviously talking about the non-Moss years. The rest of those guys are who they are because of Brady and the offense he runs, and would be nothing more than Cole Beasley anywhere else. Cole Beasley is not a "weapon." But he'd catch 95 balls in New England.

Moss, yes, but those other players were not great talents elsewhere and I doubt Edelman does much if he's drafted anywhere else.
Which guys does Rodgers have who were stars without him? Giving Brady credit for every breakout receiver and no blame for the early round and big name busts, then negating Rodgers for making his early round picks good is dumb.
