2010/2011 NFC Championship

First drive of the game, the Green bay Packers' Aaron Rodgers not only completed every pass (4/4, 76yds), he also ran one in for a touchdown on a play-action quarterback roll-out.

The Bears' first drive ended with a punt, after Jay Cutler (2/3, 25yds) overthrew Devin Hester, which would have been a first down.

Cutler's, when pressured, has a tendency to throw the ball too high for receivers, and this is exactly what happened on the Bears' first drive of the game: after the play, Cutler threw his hands up in disgust, knowing that he had missed a huge opportunity to at least tie the game, or end the drive with at least a field goal.

The second drive for the Green Bay Packers started on their own 10 yard line; however, after a few incomplete passes, the Green Bay Packers were forced to punt. Devin Hester was tackled at the Bears' eleven yard line.

So far in this game, the Packers offense is outplaying the Bears'. The Green Bay defense is outplaying the Bears' offense as well, as Cutler doesn't seem comfortable in the pocket; his amount of incomplete passes illustrates this fact.

Jay Cutler - 4/8 for 60 yards
Aaron Rodgers - 8/11 for 183 yards
