During the first offensive drive by the Green Bay Packers in the NFL Divisional Playoff game against the Dallas Cowboys, audio was picked up on one of quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ calls. The play was called “New York Bozo”.
Last year we had to hear “Omaha” shouted out by Denver Broncos’ quarterback Peyton Manning about 10,000 times. Now, Rodgers’ coined term “New York Bozo” is already drawing attention. Unfortunately, all the attention so far is being connected to Governor Chris Christie who is in attendance at today’s game.
Even though NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport explained the term, others are taking it south.
Bozo is a West Coast offense code word, often involving a fullback in the flat. New York Bozo, maybe, is a special kind
