Aaron Rodgers has been leading the Green Bay Packers like a true leader ever since the first week of the regular season. Starting from encouraging the Packers after a demolishing start to leading them 7-2 mid season and now crushing every other team that comes in front of them. The 9-3 Packers seemingly have a Super Bowl season coming ahead.

Rodgers hasn’t stopped delivering throughout his 2021 campaign which he believes to be his “last dance”. The Packers quarterback led his team to a 36-28 victory against the Los Angeles Rams in their week 12 matchup on Monday.

Aaron Rodgers fakes Jalen Ramsey for a touchdown

Aaron Rodgers seemingly played his heart out as he completed 28 of 45 pass attempts covering 307 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions. However, along with that, he also rushed for a touchdown, sneaking past Jalen Ramsey and tricking the rest of the Rams defense. That was certainly the best play of the week.

Seems like Aaron Rodgers has marked ‘duping the Defensive Player of the Year’ off his checklist this season. As in the very first touchdown of the game, Rodgers fakes the call of handing over the ball to AJ Dillon and rushed towards the touchline himself faking cornerback Jalen Ramsey on the way.

Green Bay Packers defeating the Los Angeles Rams

Going 9-3 up so far this season, the Packers will be very excited to make their way to the playoffs. Although the Rams would be equally shocked by the look of their stance right now. As going from a 7-1 record to 7-4 even after making big roster changes is definitely a big failure for the franchise.

“Of course I am,” Ramsey said when asked about if he was shocked with the Rams’ performance. “We have guys that are way too good for us to be losing games like this and losing games on the road. We’ve just got to get it right. We have to play better, everything has to be better because we’re too good to be losing games like this, but we’re not playing like we’re that good right now, so we got to correct our stuff.”
