Green Bay Packers: End of season awards and recap

MEDAL RESULT | Play of the Year

Aaron Rodgers, Jamaal Williams

Adrian Amos

Aaron Rodgers, Allen Lazard

Two of these plays are the aforementioned, “Rodgers being Superman” type of plays. We’ll wait on those and first talk about Adrian Amos and his interception against the Chicago Bears in week one.

I think we can all agree it was one of the best moments in any player’s return to their former teams’ stadium. It will never be celebrated like that in history, but it was. Essentially sealing the game with an interception after people said that he wasn’t a playmaker all offseason once he signed to go a few hundred miles north to play for Green Bay.

Any time the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears get together to play it’s high stakes.  This play, while impressive, is not a top play for the play itself, but the huge moment it happened in and all the surrounding circumstances.

The Aaron Rodgers to Allen Lazard connection was on full display both times they played the Lions and there could be multiple plays so which one is it? This one:

On this play, the Green Bay Packers playing in Lambeau on Monday Night Football, down by nine in the fourth quarter. Before this touchdown, it seemed like a game the Packers were just going to lose, but Lazard and Rodgers had other plans.

Lazard beats his man, Rodgers places it perfectly on a dime, and Lazard finishes the play off by hauling it in for the touchdown. It’s really a thing of beauty on both ends.

Finally, the play of the season, the play of the decade, and the play of the century so far. Well, if you ignore the fact that Rodgers said he was trying to hit Jimmy Graham and just believe he was going for this impossible back of the end zone diving catch for Jamaal Williams. I choose to believe that.

I did a very official and scientific survey after the game and I concluded that everyone and their mother assumed he was throwing the ball away. This is a ridiculous throw by the ridiculous thrower himself, Aaron Rodgers and one amazing effort by Jamaal Williams. I’ll just put it here because every person should watch this again and then again every time they’re having a bad day.
