Under control? Not at all. We had no control of that game after we went up 21-13. Failed to recover about the easiest fumble that's going to bounce in your hands on the kickoff and gave up a 3rd and 15 for a TD. We never scored after that.

Having control of the game would actually have the lead. We did not when that call happened. And how pathetic our defense played in the 2nd half and really the whole game outside a few drives, would have let Rodgers easily move down the field to win the game.

You say all that as if we got blown out. Check that final score my friend. I think if that outrageous reversal of Dez's catch hadn't have happen, we go on to score and the defense holds the Packers from scoring again. The defense has risen to the occasion all season when we needed to keep a lead at the end of a game.

When did I say we got blown out? I didn't. But to have a game under control, you at least have to have a lead, usually a 2 score lead. We never did the entire game. And at no point in the 2nd half did we ever have it under control. Had chances but wasted them. Even if we score on that drive, the most we can be up is 3 if we convert the two point. That is still not having a game under control, seeing as how they just need a FG to tie and a TD to win.

Seems your definition of under control is different. Because if we did, we don't need to depend on a call going a certain way to try and win.

Seems we do have different ideas of the meaning of "under control". But certainly the game was never out of control until GB's final possession.
