Aaron Rodgers Throws Interception at Lambeau Field After 3 Years

St. Louis Rams linebacker James Laurinaitis picked off Aaron Rodgers today in Green Bay – something that hasn’t happened to Rodgers in Lambeau Field since December 2, 2012.

On third down the Packers’ defense went to town, St. Louis converting only 5 of 18 attempts, and Green Bay’s 4 interceptions all came on 3 & long.

Seattle Seahawks safety Earl Thomas got his team their first pick of the season off Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton to prevent a touchdown and went back for 68 yards late in the first half. In the receiving end, Antonio Gates had 92 yards and two touchdowns in nine receptions while Danny Woodhead added 66 yards in five catches.

“Even if Rodgers is missing his receivers, he gets enough time in the pocket to read the field and make the throws – only Tyrod Taylor gets more time in the pocket”, the same report added.

Cleveland’s Josh McCown is playing great right now, but this is the Browns we’re talking about here, and they’ll be coming to the Edward Jones Dome.

For the second consecutive week, it was the Packers’ defense – not the two-time MVP quarterback – that was the reason Green Bay stayed undefeated. “You were right with what you said.’ As frustrating as it is right now, I know deep in my heart things are going to turn themselves around”.

RANT: Special teams play has been improving steadily for the Packers after a worrisome preseason, but the Rams burned them badly on a fake punt in the third quarter when cornerback Demetri Goodson lost his footing on a 20-yard pass from Rams punter Johnny Hekker to Cody Davis. “I thought they were clearly the key to our victory”. Head coach Jeff Fisher said this week is a time to self-evaluate and work on the little things that can make a significant difference.

On the play to Jones, which was a quick slant, nickel back Lamarcus Joyner who played 53 of 62 snaps, said, “I tried to make a play on the ball”. But I’m sure somebody will come along at a few point and put up 600 in a row maybe. Rookie corner Quinten Rollins returned an interception 45 yards for a touchdown. Gurley fought off Julius Peppers of the Green Bay Packers yesterday for yards after contact, something that most other backs would not be able to accomplish.

Foles threw a career-worst four interceptions, two in the fourth quarter inside the Packers 10. He carried the football 13 times for just 27 yards and no touchdowns in the game. Micah Hyde continued to start in Burnett’s absence and promptly contributed with the first of the Packers’ four interceptions of Rams quarterback Nick Foles. So the Rams will have a huge battle on both sides of the ball if they are to claim a shock win today. Gurley missed the first three games of his rookie season recovering from a knee injury he suffered last November, but he ran all over the Cardinals last Sunday and did the same to the Packers, with 159 yards on 30 carries. “I want to be the best team in January”, 620WTMJ Green Bay Packers Radio Network voice Wayne Larrivee told “Wisconsin’s Afternoon News” on Tuesday.

The Packers are 5-0. One kick in the second half was blocked by Datone Jones. Ha Ha Clinton-Dix leads the Packers with 35 tackles, Clay Matthews has 4.5 sacks and Sam Shields has two interceptions.

The Packers took an unusual path to a 14-10 lead at halftime. Guard T.J. Lang also left in the first quarter with a knee injury.
