Packers/Rogers with 61 yard hail mary- why you dont rush 3 guys

As Phil Simms just said 'the 3 man rush was the first mistake". But what a heave and the lions didnt have a guy on the receiver who caught it.

Crazy play set up by an iffy facemask call. The game is never over and now the Lions offense wish they would have thrown the ball on 3rd down.
 
The slow motion replay of Rogers arching his back and launching that ball at a 60 degree angle was amazing.

But you have to bring in your 4 best, fastest speed rushers to get to the qb on a play like that and maybe a 5th rusher just to make it so they have a much less chance of having the time to make a pass like that.
