Live at the stadium, and it was a great comeback, taking it all the way to the 29. So now the Jets offensive line was ready to take over. They would be led by former Cal Bear Aaron Rodgers. There have been very few quarterbacks in the NFL who have been as consistent as Aaron Rodgers throughout their careers. He’s been so good for so long, and we haven’t seen any decline in his skills.
His accuracy and arm strength complement the talent around him, and his mistakes during the game are few and far between. Mike 44 Mike per the. Check. The first carry was for Iowa State’s Brie Hall, and he got past the 45 before being tackled. It was a good way to start a drive. 17 yards and a first down. So much for gaining three or four yards on first down and keeping the chains ahead.
They kept the chains moving with a nice little run. Yeah, they were making the chain gang run a little bit to keep them level, right? Because most of the first series of games are about finding holes in the defense. Sometimes you even force some big runs. And that’s incomplete. Physical play on the football there. And it was second down. It was another zone defense. It looked like there were chances, but they did a good job patrolling the middle of the field and forcing an incomplete snap. Here’s second and 10. Silver. On second down, Hall took a run. It was taken down to the 48 for two yards.
We always talk about keeping the eyes of defenders, especially linebackers, in the right place. His eyes were there the whole time. And you know that’s not easy because they keep throwing you all sorts of wrong directions. They try to fool you and make you look in the wrong place. But you’re right about that. Breaking news.
