That’s the one. Idk, though. Rodgers was a plus athlete when he came out of college, but he was like 37 or something in that NFC Championship game. I don’t think it’s a foregone conclusion that he would have made it before getting creamed.
If anything, Lefleur shares a lot of blame there for electing to kick the field goal and hope to get another possession.

A lot of it isn't his fault, but he definitely had some legit chances and the offense didn't take advantage either.

Agreed. Even Mahomes choked in the AFCCG against the Bengals. Brady had his fair share. You won’t win them all.
