Aaron Rodgers can extend plays so long they feel like they take hours.

With his Green Bay Packers trailing the New York Giants 6-0 late in the first half of Sunday's wild-card game, Rodgers bought himself all the time he needed by deftly maneuvering in the pocket and eventually found Davante Adams in the end zone for a 5-yard touchdown.

Rodgers took 8.4 seconds from snap to throw, the third longest time on any touchdown pass all season, according to the NFL's next-gen stats.
