Rodgers' late-game interception ended Steelers' comeback bid in final seconds.
In the final seconds of a close game against the Browns, Rodgers rolled right looking for a long throw rather than attempting a quick 20-30 yard gain that would have positioned the Steelers for a field goal attempt to force overtime; the long pass was intercepted, ending the game. The source notes that Rodgers (or coach Mike McCarthy) inexplicably opted for a middle-ground strategy when two clear shots were available: a shorter attempt to reach field goal range, then a Hail Mary if needed.
