The Green Bay Packers vs. Arizona Cardinals, every body knows before kickoff that they will meet each other again on the same field in a few days. The Cardinals can only hope this will not be the same as what happened on the previous matchup. Aaron Rodgers, playing mostly against the reserves of Arizona, shredded them in a 33-7 Packers rout on Sunday. Rodgers after playing for three quarters completed 21 of 26 passes for 235 yards and a touchdown. Charles Woodson returned an interception 45 yards adding another score as the Packers (11-5) won seven out of eight games. It was the worst single-sided home loss for Coach Ken Whisenhunt in three seasons with the Cardinals. Arizona (10-6) pulled out Kurt Warner quarterback after only one quarter. Matt Leinart the Backup completed 13 of 21 passes for 96 yards and was intercepted twice. Most of the first-team defense of Arizona played only one possession. Whisenhunt was cautious of his href="http://nfl-super-bowl.net/">game plans and did not show much of what he would use next week, while Green Bay coach Mike McCarthy played the Packers usual high-powered game. Woodson left late in the first half of the game with a shoulder injury. Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie Arizona cornerback went out with a bruised left knee and Anquan Boldin wide receiver had a right ankle injury in the game. Before he left, Woodson picked off Leinarts errant pass and ran down the left sideline and made a dive for the touchdown to make the score 26-0 with 4 1/2 minutes left in the half. The Green Bay Packers vs. Arizona Cardinals game is a must see. This season, it was already his third interception return for a TD which is a franchise record. He also broke the Packers record with eighth defensive touchdown in his career since he joined the team in 2006. He has seven interceptions and one fumble return. He shares the mark with Herb Adderly (1961-69) and Darren Sharper (1997-2004). Woodson made a career best with his ninth pick of the season. He already has 45 in his career. Arizona hardly stayed away from its first shutout loss since the second week of the 2003 season. Ralph Brown made an interception to Matt Flynns pass and returned it 80 yards to Cardinals 8. Brian St. Pierre was able to get his first NFL touchdown pass on the next play, a 3-yarder to Larry Fitzgerald, with 2:59 to play. Arizona hoping to get the No. 2 seed ended with the victory of Minnesota over the New York Giants earlier in the day. That guaranteed a matchup between Cardinals-Packers first-round playoff. The only question left was seeding. Who will win the next game between Green Bay Packers vs. Arizona Cardinals?About the Author:
