That was not the case on two of his interceptions -- and the other was a bad decision on a late throw. With the third quarter coming to a close, the Giants held a minute time of possession lead and were trailing the Packers by just four points when they forced Green Bay into a fourth-and situation from New York's yard line.
Rodgers connected with Geronimo Allison on a yard completion. A few plays later, the Giants forced a third-and-goal situation from outside the yard line when Rodgers connected with Adams for another touchdown.
The previously referenced fourth-and conversion was also the best play of the game by any individual player. Despite being pressured and hit by Giants linebacker Markus Golden, Rodgers was able to drop a pinpoint pass over the middle to move the chains. Rodgers completed the throw from an off-balanced base while falling away from the throw.
That's the kind of special arm talent he so clearly has. Movin' the chains on fourth down! It was all smiles for Rodgers after the game, and although he likely didn't mean to take a shot at the Giants, his comment shows the state of the Giants franchise. They have morphed into one of the NFL's most uncompetitive franchises. The Giants will travel to play the Eagles in Philadelphia on "Monday Night Football" in a game that really shouldn't be featured in the primetime slot.
On the positive side of things, the Giants moved into sole possession of the No. Green Bay improves to on the season! Daniel Jones just made an insane throw to Kaden Smith down the right sideline. Big gainer after avoiding a strip-sack.

Paul Hornung 17 yard field goal. Great awareness. A yard touchdown on third down capped what arguably was the Packers' most important drive of the game — 10 plays, 80 yards and, most important, off the clock in the fourth quarter.
It was Rodgers' fourth touchdown pass of the game, which tied a Packers postseason single-game record. When AaronRodgers12 has unlimited time in the pocket This is what happens.
ET : End of the third quarter. A game that started slow scoring-wise turned into a bit of an offensive battle, and the Giants entered the fourth quarter with a slim lead in total yardage, , despite being down by 11 points. It happened because the Packers' five-play drive stalled on the Giants' yard line with less than 30 seconds to play in the third quarter.
A sweet move in the slot gave Cobb enough room to catch Rodgers' pass in the open field and sprint to the end zone for an easy score. It capped a quick, four-play, yard drive that answered the Giants' touchdown. ET — touchdown : The Giants immediately make the Packers pay for their fourth-down mistake. Tavarres King caught a yard touchdown pass from Eli Manning on a post pattern, and New York just like that, on the second play after the turnover, turned the game around.
That's the kind of sequence that could get a non-highly successful NFL coach fired. ET : The Packers decided it would be a good idea to go for it on fourth-and-inches in their own territory with six minutes to play in the third quarter. It was not a good idea.

It completed an eight-play, yard drive that took up the final of the half. New York dominated most of the first half and entered the locker room with a advantage in total yards. Brown is back, and their defense will be better after Week It's all about getting hot at the right time, and they enter having won four straight. Better yet, they've actually found a ground game to complement Josh Allen, who will be determined to build off his playoff run.
It was an uneven season for the defending AFC champs, and downright ugly at times. Yet they still outscored everyone except for the Bills in the conference. Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes will score at will when they need to. The only reason they're not up top is because of the depth concerns out wide and in the secondary.
Their defense has occasionally proven vulnerable. But let's just face reality: Tom Brady's presence alone ensures they will be serious contenders to repeat. It's simple: They have the MVP under center.
OK, so it's more than that; even if Aaron Rodgers doesn't officially claim his second straight award, he's the smoothest, most confident QB in the game right now, and while he and Matt LaFleur have yet to advance past the NFC title game, their track record is better than anyone's during their time together.
