Hey, they've got a #1 defense, any QB might struggle.  Even the great Aaron Rodgers.  I guess he can't figure out Denver's defense either, right?  Maybe it's just an experience thing.

It is an experience thing.....and you can look back to the first half and see where there were a couple of us wondering just how long they would leave Green with single coverage.  If you watched the game at all....you could plainly see Green wasn't one on one in the second half.  

Yes....it's the #1 defense.....but the obvious halftime adjustment they made resulted in tougher sledding for us the 2nd half.  You also must consider how running the ball to set up 2nd or 3rd and short set our young QB up with manageable conversions.  That was also stopped in the 2nd half.  

No one is taking credit for anything.....it was pretty obvious.
