Leaders Of The Pack: A Full Post-Season Report on Targets and QB Attempts
February 11, 2011
Wow, what a Post-Season! A hearty congratulations from Pyromaniac.com to the Super Bowl Champion Green Bay Packers, though as a Chicago Bears fan, it was pretty hard to take. Oh well, at least Brett Favre wasn't involved! Whatever the case, no matter who you root for, you have to tip your hat to Aaron Rodgers for his awe-inspiring performance. It was truly a special run for a former backup QB who went through a lot of diversity in order to get his first string spot.
But enough lovin' for the Green and Gold. Let's take an in-depth look at who was getting the pill this Post-Season as we break down all the Carries, Targets and Pass Attempts for you here:
