I'm still amazed over that one, he also broke up the potential TD at the end of the game to seal the victory. Big props to Los for playing a great game, and for finally snagging an INT! Let's hope it's a sign of things to come from him.

Ray Charles could have made that catch, it hit him in the hands and he still almost blew it.

While he had a good game, he's by no means out of the dog house.

this morning on sports talk 980 they said that Carlos Rodgers initially refused to comment to the media about his game, probably because of the article the Post wrote about him last week. In fact, apparently the whole secondary made an agreement to not talk to the media cause they were upset about the way they had been knocked all season. They eventually caved in and spoke, but I thought that move was kinda immature. Rodgers had played bad all season, the Post wrote an article that could have been interpreted to put Rodgers in a bad light, but as NFL player you gotta be able to handle criticism. I really hope Carlos Rodgers can stop being this sensitive because it could cause problems down the line if he can't take some negative feedback. Imagine if he played in New York or Philly. It kinda reminds me of like a fight between middle school girls, you said something bad about me, so I'm not going to talk to you anymore.

I can't really blame him for not wanting to talk to the media. I doubt I would if I was in their position. The media will try their hardest to twist and stretch every word that comes out of your mouth to make headlines.

right, but being part of a professional athlete is learning to deal with the media. you can't just say I'm not gonna talk to you unless you're gonna write something good about me.

I don't think he ever said that. ;)

Also, dealing with the media is not a part of the job description of Professional Athlete.

Sure you can, you can do whatever you want. There are no NFL or team rules saying that players have to speak to the media. If they want to live in obscurity they are free to do so.

It's the media's job to talk to players, but that doesn't mean they have to cooperate.

Finally 10-90 caught a ball thrown directly to him! I wonder if dropping a sure INT-TD in the Seattle game last year has flashed in his head each time a pass is headed his way, he showed good hands until then.

He made the catch, and he was good on the breakup at the end. It sure helps him to have Springs on the other side. The breakup by Springs was amazing.

Sometimes, it becomes totally mental--he just thinks himself into dropping them. And Marcus almost had one on a blitz that would have been 7. And didn't Kenny Wright miss one? Anywho, Rogers got it. Let's hope this turns things around!

It's pretty obvious that Carlos Rogers cannot catch a football. But to his defense, he has been in position to make these plays. This is something that he needs to work on the offseason.
