There were three penalties on this play, one crucially against the Packers for an illegal shift, that negated an otherwise amazing catch by Randall Cobb. Aaron Rodgers caught the Cardinals with too many men on the field and, as has become his trademark, he quickly called for the snap to get off a free play. Rodgers bounced around in the pocket for a bit and then heaved it downfield to Cobb. He was getting harassed by Justin Bethel—that was the third flag on the play—but still managed to haul it in with one hand while fending Bethel off with the other. Cobb secured it as he went sliding into the turf as Bethel fell on top of him.unfortunately for the Packers, after the play Cobb was seen doubled-over on the field and was eventually carted back to the locker room. According to Michelle Tafoya, he has a chest injury and is questionable to return.[NBC]
