He was 18/41.


5 drops and about 5-6 times he had to throw it away under pressure.

He was inaccurate on probably 4-5 throws.

It wasn't his best game but it was a low B high C given the defense he was facing.

He never set his feet on his throws


I wonder why that was? I mean I'm sure it had nothing to do with the fact he was under pressure more than any other QB in Super Bowl history save one.

Despite it all they lost the game because they couldn't catch simple passes or make fundamental plays on special teams.

And pressures are part of the game, is it not? Rodgers and Brees KILL defenses even when under pressure, especially Rodgers.

A lot were inaccurate...

It was a C at best, he did nothing to help his team offensively. Pass rush got to him, but he struggled to make routine passes from this season throughout the game.
