2010 IN REVIEW
Some pre-season prognosticators has the 2010 Packers winning the Super Bowl, or, at least, making a deep run in the playoffs. The Packers made them look good, but did not find the road to the title easy. The season started under a cloud, when the NFL indefinitely suspended DE Johnny Jolly in July due to his July 8, 2008 second-degree felony charge for possession of at least 200 grams of codeine. As the season progressed, injuries ripped the roster apart, and other impediments made the road bumpy. In Week One, RB Ryan Grant (ankle) and DE Justin Harrell (ACL) were lost for the season. In Week Three, the Packers committed a team record 18 penalties in losing to the Bears. In mid-October, LB Nick Barnett (wrist) and TE Jermichael Finley (knee) were lost for the year. Two weeks later, LB Brady Poppinga saw his season come to an end. Two straight overtime losses left them at 3-3, but four consecutive wins put them back in the playoff race. QB Aaron Rodgers suffered a concussion in a Week 14 loss to the Lions. He would miss the next game against the Patriots. While backup QB Matt Flynn played well (251 yards and three touchdowns), the Packers still lost to fall to 8-6. The facts were simple - If the Packers did not win their last two games, the season would come to an end without a playoff berth. The first step was accomplished when they crushed the New York Giants, one of the teams they were battling for the final post-season berth in the NFC. In the final regular season game, the Packers met their arch-rivals, and defeated the Bears, 10-3, to make the playoffs as the sixth seed. Without any home games in the playoffs, the Packers started the road to their fourth Super Bowl title with a thrilling win in Philadelphia. Tramon Williams intercepted a Michael Vick pass in the end zone with 36 seconds left. Green Bay traveled to the top seed in the NFC, and throttled the Falcons. Green Bay's 48 points became the franchise's single game postseason record, highlighted by Tramon Williams returning an interception 70 yards for a touchdown and Rodgers passing for 366 yards and three scores. The NFC title would be decided in Chicago. This would be the second playoff meeting between the two teams, the first since Green Bay lost to Chicago 33–14 in 1941. With the Bears rallying late, NT B.J. Raji returning an interception 18 yards for a touchdown, sending Green Bay to the Super Bowl in Dallas. The Packers defeated the Steelers, 31-25, never trailing in the contest. Rodgers was named Super Bowl MVP, completing 24 of 39 passes for 303 yards and three touchdowns. This was the Packers' fourth Super Bowl victory out of five total appearances and a record thirteenth overall NFL title. Rodgers finished the season completing 65.7% of his passes for 3,912 yards and 28 touchdowns, with only eleven interceptions, giving him his second consecutive season with a triple digit passer rating (101.2). He was also
a good rusher, adding 356 yards and 4 touchdowns on the ground. His top target was pro bowl receiver Greg Jennings, who caught 76 passes for 1,265 yards and 12 touchdowns. The Packers never trailed by more than 7 points at any point during the season—a feat that had never been accomplished during a complete season in the Super Bowl era. The last team to complete a season with this distinction was the Detroit Lions in 1962.
