Matt Ryan Out Duels Aaron Rodgers


Recommended Posts

Do you remember when Matt Ryan out dueled Aaron Rodgers.  In the last game @ the Dome?

Do you remember the turning point?  When Collins ripped the ball from Ripkowski?  Meanwhile remebering Dimarco:  left along due to coverage on jj, he blew through for 30

Do you remember Rodgers getting blasted by poole?  and intercepted by rico?

But most of all, do you remember Levine Toilolo occupying 3 packer defenders?

The still shot for that vid is hilarious when you notice the position of the Falcon defender's hand & then that look on Rodgers' face. I literally just listened to a podcast yesterday where Rodgers was being interviewed & they talked about getting hit in the junk. The host said something like "Well, at least you're wearing a cup"... to which Rodgers brushed off like it was an insanely misinformed statement & replied, "Man, nobody wears a cup in the NFL."

I've watched that video a couple times since that glorious day, but the title is still ridiculous. “Out-Duels”, what a way to describe that game LOL!

I remember the turning point, but it wasn’t the NFCCG.  Right team, wrong matchup.  Week 8 vs GB was the turning point.  Our season could have ended  if Ryan doesn’t find Sanu to win the game.

That was the true turning point of our 2016 season.  How easily we could have missed the playoffs if we lose that game

I recall we had that one in hand too. I’ll look at the in season turning point game too.

I was there with my 85 year old dad. That big smile on his face I’ll never forget.

Surprised my dad with tickets to this game.  Best game I've ever seen.  The atmosphere was a giant part by the 2nd quarter.  I think that is the first time I've ever "felt" momentum at a game.  Green Bay had no shot.

Defense was the key and were playing lights out. Seattle game was similar, team peaked at right time.
