Seriously though, Rodgers looked ok although it looked like Dallas figured they had it in the bag when Favre went out and let up at bit mentally(something NE would have been ulikely to do!).
I agree, the Dallas defense got sloppy with pursuit and tackles the second Rodgers took over. However at that point I also think key players on defense were banged up and tired (Burnett, Henry, Newman, etc). Once Romo took the boys on a long drive on offense (Albeit a a pick in the end zone as a result of a TO misfortune) the defense had a good 15 minutes to rest up and they took it to the Packers the rest of the game. Rodgers got pressure from the d-line, good pass rushing.
