Well, those were some crazy ass games today. Alex Smith matches Andrew Luck TD for TD, throws no picks to Luck’s 3, and still KC loses 45-44 after Smith and Co built up a 38-10 lead minutes into the 2nd half. Philly and NO played a more defensive battle in the cold, and NO wins their historic first road playoff win hitting the game-winning FG as time ran out 26-24. Again, the winning QB was the one throwing picks as Foles had none, and Brees had 2. NO brought something they haven’t shown too much of, and that’s a strong run game. Something KC could have used, but lost early with Jamaal Charles leaving after the 1st series, and the backup RB Knile Davis also going out in the 3rd quarter.
The good news for me, besides the entertainment factor of these games was the fact that the refs were for the most part in the background. There were no blown calls, and there were no game-changing mistakes from the guys in the stripes.
So, here we go. We are the last playoff game, and I think this is another exciting nail-biter. However, I think we can wear down Green Bay’s banged up defense and win this going away. 31-20 in the cold cold cold is still my call.
He didn’t have his fucking play sleeve on, that’s why he called a to
We have to burn a TO on our first play coming out of the half.
Did we fire Jim Harbaugh yet?
Not knowing what to do coming out of half time that is on the coaching staff and the HC
We DESERVE to loser this game. Fuck us.
That last series was horrible. Bullshit. A fucking time out? Rodgers is going to calmly win this this game
Three and out after running the time-out play. That’s why passing isn’t always the answer. Better to play smart than always trying to outsmart.
Tell that to Luck, A. Smith, P Manning, D. Brees, just to name a few.
Motherfucking cocksucker, another TO.
Whether its Kap, the coaches, or the play calling, this sucks. We look completely clueless out there.
And there goes our second TO w/ > 8 mins remaining in the 3rd Q.
And we come out of the TO to take a sack. This team makes me sick.
This team makes me sick.
They brought six on that one. Where was the hot read on that third and long pass play?
If they get their run game going here we’re in trouble.
Everyone fixates on Rodgers… but it’s Lacy that will kill us if he gets going.
Why don’t punters use the old “coffin kick” any more?
Kick it down the middle and it bounces into the end zone — every goddamn time.
Must be feeling the cold now.
O couldn’t have come up with worse game plan. Now they’re running all over us. Game over
Brooks pushed him over the line.
Yeah, I saw that too.
Should have had Lacy short of the FD there and we did not get it done.
We are squandering opportunities on offense right now and it could cost us.
We had terrific field position near midfield, and we get one yard rushing and two INCs and punt.
That is the sort of thing that loses football games.
Luckily they can’t catch today either.
Ball feels like a solid brick I’m sure.
Still waiting for one team’s O-line to grab control and make the run game go – and then it’s over.
Of course, lucky fluke pass plays like that help too.
Saving cutdown by Cox.
Damn Cobb! GB has confidence in its defense now.
