I thought Rodgers played okay, but he didn't have much help. Several good passes dropped by Packers. However, there was no doubt the Giants deserved that game based on how poorly the Packers played.

Why did Giants beat Packers?
Why did the Giants beat the Packers you ask? Well, let's see. Giants played fairly well. Packers played like shit. That's the way I saw it.

The 2012 Giants are much like the 2011 Packers. Teams that were much better than their records once injured players returned and they were full strength
The Giants won because they took the Packers out of their comfort zone. Rogers did not have time in the pocket and rushed his throws. The receivers did not help him and nobody stepped up with a big play. Ball carriers were getting hit and coughed up the ball
On offense, Eli was rarely pressured and when he was, he just took the sack or threw it away. Packers did not come up big on third down on either side of the ball. Packers had no answer for Hakeem Nicks and that Hail Mary was poorly defended. Nicks was wide open in the end zone
You might say the Packers played poorly or that the Giants showed them for what they are.

Wow. You could be an ESPN analyst!
Eli Manning has only recently been getting the recognition he deserves. He's always been in his brother's shadow, (or blasted for his draft-day antics). But when he's on his game-he's on. You can tell within the first 2 drives if it's going to be a good game or not for him. But a hot Eli is dangerous.

Main reason Greenbay lost is weather and lack of running game.
Arron Rodgers throws a hard ball that is on you in a hurry that stings even when the temp is 80. The recievers kept dropping passes that he delivered on target. Football is a game of confidence and once they started dropping passes everything became uncertain.
Greenbay's Defense isn't as bad as they seem mainly because everyone that faces them get's scored on quick. That means more plays and more offensive stats. The Chargers had that problem in the 80's. Greenbay has playmakers but lost some of their beef on the D-line during the off-season. They can't stop the run with 3 linemen so this means linebackers and D-backs have to come up in the box for run support making them react more to playaction.
30 degrees is cold enough.Main reason Greenbay lost is weather and lack of running game.

Game time temperatures were 30 degrees....hardly frigid, especially wearing gloves.
