Aaron Rodgers
Aaron Rodgers has been involved in a few controversies in recent times. He has been heavily criticized by experts and fans for his vaccine lie and one can’t really blame them for doing so. However, one has to admit that on the field, he is indeed a force to reckon with.
The man has a knack for producing incredibly astonishing performances and has played an instrumental role in guiding his side to innumerable wins. Today we are going to talk about a Packers versus Lions game played back in 2015 which is remembered for Rodgers’ iconic throw.
“Best for a reason”: Fans remember Aaron Rodgers’ 70-yard-throw which took the game away from Lions
The Lions were roaring and were in a comfortable position to win the game. With only six seconds left on the clock and Green Bay stranded at its own 21-yard line, the Packers needed something special to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat.
Rodgers ran back 16 yards, maneuvered a bit, and then launched the ball high in the air. It traveled 70 yards in the air before finally resting in the hands of Richard Rodgers and as expected, every Green Bay player, staff, fan went berserk as they had pulled off an incredible heist.
“It’s the most amazing game of my life, to be a part of that. To never give up,” Rodgers had said after the game. “When he (Richard) caught it, I blacked out, I didn’t know what happened. I know it was the greatest feeling I’ve had on the field in a long time,” he had claimed. Remembering the game, fans took to Twitter to voice their opinions about Rodgers’ throw.
