Sending 3 on that last play was a bigger blunder than Garrett

spiking the ball.

They needed like 25 yards to get in field goal range and you give the receiver all day to get down the field?

Should have dialed up another blitz and forced Rogers to get rid of the ball quickly. An even bigger blunder than Howdy Doody spiking the ball, stopping the clock, and pissing away a down.

The Packers completely out coached Dallas on that play. They were prepared for Dallas spying Rodgers and rushing 3 because of the first match up, so they put their C out in the flat to pick up the spy allowing Rodgers to get to the sideline. If you look at that play again Jones was actually in good position if Rodgers is in the pocket. Because he was able to get to the sideline, it changed the angle of the pass so they could complete it.

Like CowboyRoy said, they should of sent 5 and played off coverage to force Rodgers to get rid of it quickly.
