Shaq gave the QB a situation, which carried, “I’m a member of your team. The coach calls a different play in the Super Bowl. Do you say, ‘forget about it,’ because I’m going to Shaq? With two seconds left on the clock, we’re down to the two-yard line. You say, ‘Forget about the coach,’ and I say I’m throwing it to Shaq because I know his hands are impeccable. So, do you follow your coach’s instructions and run the play?” Rodgers, as usual, asked a funny question in return, “You talking about the 92′ Shaq? or the 2018 Shaq?”. A burst of huge chuckles emerged after Rodgers’ comment on his logically structured question.
