Would you be open to adding a fourth-quarter stat for
quarterbacks?
There is a fourth-quarter stat for quarterbacks, and Aaron
Rodgers is No. 5 in the league with a 126.0 fourth-quarter
passer rating. Jay Cutler is No. 14 with a 77.1. That was the
difference in Sunday’s game.
<b>True dat.</b>

Vic, it seemed like the past few years Rodgers has been very
conservative when it came to holding onto the ball and taking
the sack. In this past game, it appeared as though he was a bit
more risky about letting the ball go, one resulting in the
spectacular one-handed catch from Lacy. Am I wrong in saying
that?
First of all, if you put on a pair of gloves the players wear,
you’d understand how not-so-fantastic one-handed catches are.
Those gloves are so sticky they make that stuff Lester Hayes
used look like hand lotion. Secondly, Rodgers expressed an
element of regret in his postgame interview for having made that
throw. He got away with it. It’s not something you want to make
a habit of doing. I don’t know what it is about one-handed
catches and hurdling tacklers that excite people so, but they
almost always create an explosion of emotion, even in the press
box. When Lacy made that catch on Sunday, the press box
exploded. I thought it might’ve been a delayed reaction to the
pregame meal.

I wouldn’t worry about that, yet.

Vic, I’ve been reading the defense played in nickel and dime
more often than base. If you’re primary goal is to stop the run,
why wouldn’t you play base more often to have three big linemen
up front instead of two?
Because in today’s game, stopping the pass is more important
than stopping the run. That’s just the way it is. The old saying
is you throw to score but you run to win. I don’t believe that’s
true anymore. I would amend that old saying to read: You throw
to win and you run to throw. Those words sadden me.

Vic, I can’t say I agree with your fourth-quarter stat for QBs
because fourth-quarter passer rating is so often inflated with
meaningless touchdowns. There must be a better way to
quantitatively assess end-of-game performance.
There is. Use your eyes and your brain. If the touchdowns are
meaningless, then it wasn’t crunch time, so it doesn’t count. I
know when it’s crunch time. I don’t even have to use my eyes. I
feel it in my stomach. Stats should be used to tell you what you
already know.
Matt from La Crosse, WI
For the past few seasons, I have not been shy to voice my
displeasure of Dom Capers’ defense. I thought we played far too
much zone and let the offense come to us, rather than go after
them. However, after watching this past game, I am a changed
man. I loved many of his called blitzes and man coverage. The
problem now is poor tackling and a lack of an inside linebacker
presence. Your thoughts?
He needs to call plays with better tackling and inside
linebacker presence.

Vic, what’s the mood of the team? Any extra juice because it’s
Seattle, or is it just business as usual?
Seattle? I thought the Packers were playing Tampa Bay this week.
You know what I mean? The revenge thing doesn’t work; players
just don’t think that way. They’re focused on one thing and one
thing only: doing their job. As long as they do their job,
they’ll have one. Beating Seattle is meaningless to a player if
he didn’t do his job. Any postgame victory celebration begins
with a player’s joy for having done his job. Fans see the big
picture. They feel hurt and they want revenge. It’s OK to be a
fan.
