The NFL Divisional playoff round didn’t disappoint this past Sunday, as the rookie sensation quarterback, Dak Prescott, and the Dallas Cowboys hosted the Super Bowl MVP, Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers. The winner would go on to face the Atlanta Falcons in the NFC championship game. Dallas came back from being down 21-3 to tie the game 28-28 in the 4th quarter. In the last few minutes of the game, both teams scored a field goal making it 31-31. The Packers would charge down the field in the final few seconds to kick a game-winning 51 yard field goal and take the Packers to the NFC championship, winning 34-31.

Though the Green Bay Packers won, you can pretty much say Aaron Rodgers won that game. On Sunday, Aaron Rodgers threw 28 completed passes in 43 attempts, averaged 7.1 yards per throw, and threw two touchdowns. Those stats however, aren’t exactly how Rodgers lead his team to victory. He got his team out to a big lead, and then in the 4th quarter, set up good field position for the last two field goals to win the game. Some people could argue that kicker, Mason Crosby, won the game. Although he ultimately did with the field goal, he wouldn’t have gotten the opportunity to kick that field goal had Aaron Rodgers not got them down inside the Cowboys’ 35 yard line. Rodgers made the big pass to Jared Cook, which set up Crosby for the kick.

Aaron Rodgers continues to be on the best streak of his NFL career, and now he finds himself in a position to go to his 2nd Super Bowl. If he continues to play how he has been, there’s no stopping him. This Sunday, they will play the Atlanta Falcons to decide the NFC title. So how do the Falcons stop Aaron Rodgers? Well, if it’s even possible to stop him, they need to focus on covering the receivers rather than trying to sack Rodgers. It doesn’t sound right, but if you watch Rodgers play, you know he’s better when he scrambles out of the pocket and throws the ball, rather than standing in the pocket looking for a receiver. He has the arm of Tom Brady, and the legs of Russell Wilson. So the best thing to do for the Falcons is, don’t chase Rodgers out of the pocket, and if they do, they better have those receivers covered.

My prediction for the upcoming game is that Rodgers most likely will not be stopped. Packers will win against the Falcons, and advance to the Super Bowl. Rodgers has been playing like he never has before, and I don’t think there’s any stopping Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers from winning another Super Bowl this season.
