GREEN BAY, Wis. - Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers made his weekly appearance on "The Pat McAfee Show" on Tuesday, and he decided to mock a Giants’ play call during their season-ending loss to the Washington Football Team.
The Giants were facing a third-and-9 on their own 4-yard line, and instead of attempting a pass with quarterback Jake Fromm, they decided to call a QB sneak, and they gained one yard on the play.
Rodgers said if Packers head coach Matt LaFleur called that play on a third and long, it wouldn’t fly.

"Call that one [on the headset], Matt, and let’s see what happens," Rodgers said to both McAfee and cohost A.J. Hawk. "That s--- ain’t flying."
Rodgers and the top-seeded Packers will have a first-round bye in the NFL playoffs.
