We were basically giving them that option, and a number of times Delhomme just turned and quickly slung it to Keyshawn for an easy 5-6 yards. This guy was lined up so far back that Sean wasn't even coming over the top, he was coming underneath, and if it weren't for him Johnson would've had a much better game. It seems to me that a physical corner like Rodgers should have been playing him tight, allowing Sean to roam a little more, but nevertheless a great game by the secondary...where was this all year?? And how bout that Vernon Fox?? We need more guys with an attitude like his. He's always playing like he has something to prove and is a team first kind of guy.
Julius Peppers is a BEAST!!

Maybe that was part of the game plan. Give them the easy 5 to 6 yard plays to Keyshawn and then the QB is not throwing to Smith who is the biggest threat of the big play. If that is true it worked great as we kept Smith in check most of the game.
