Yes, the Green Bay Packers should be giving the game ball to offensive guard T.J. Lang for his heads up play on the Packers final drive of their heart stopping 27-24 win over the Miami Dolphins. With the Packers facing a third and 10, no timeouts and less than a minute in the game, Aaron

Colledge who?

It was a good play, but I'd have to study the rest of his game to name him the "MVP." One heads-up play does not an MVP make.

He definitely deserves a pat on the back for being alert.
Without that play we would be crying in our beer right now.
He kept the drive alive.

easy with the mvp of the game, he made a good hustle play, but the rest of the game aaron was under pressure and got sacked 3 times and hit alot more, as a whole the oline played just ok !!

Crap, this is about T.J. Lang recovering the ball. Why did Rodgers let the ball out anyway? He knew it was the last drive of the game the Packers would have? I think he should have been more careful with the ball. Thankfully Lang (like Colledge) is a bright heady player and was johnny on the spot to save Rodgers tail.

First.. about damn time we gave the biggers up front their due... happens far to little.

Based on his push for the Kuhn run.. I think it is time this staff reconsiders a power run blocking scheme over this quasi -- lab science type morphosis of a blocking scheme and toss it out the damn window. We have one athletic type lineman on the roster in Bakhtiari... other than that.. they are maulers. Use it.

Screw Colledge. I was tired of his turnstile type skills in blitz pickups several years ago.. I loved seeing it happen on the opposing team for a change.
