Divisional Round Playoff Games Thread

[Guess Who]

No, he wasn't thinking anything like that.

He's a product of the generation of DB's that never uses their arms to tackle.

another good point

I'm still shocked. I thought the Vikings blew it by giving Brees 90 seconds.....wtf, that was crazy.

3 of the 4 QBs left in the playoffs are considered 'busts,' so all those people claiming you can only win with a HOF QB....

Are still correct.

Mike Tomlin shit the bed today in many ways.

Mike Zimmer's timeouts won him a game that looked lost.

So what do they eat in Minnesota?

Lutefisk?

 

[JoJoBoxer]

Marcus Williams name will be remembered forever

This could be the football version of Merles Boner.

How about The Williams Wiff?

 

[Warrior Spirit]

how do you not keep 2 or 3 defenders way back at the 20. There was not a defender behind him in a situation in which they had to get either a penalty or TD. Let him catch it and have a few guys behind that play to come up and tackle him.

 

[Spunky Porkstacker]

no, no he won't, they will sign him before then

Won't that depend on Minn cap situation?

 

[Viciousjay]

Lucky catch, and run. They won't get by Philly and if they do Jacksonville's defense will eat them alive or Brady will destroy them

 

[Bearly]

I honestly think he wanted to block the path to OB to run out the clock and forgot that a TD was still in play. He didn't just duck to nowhere but expected the WR to dive for the sideline. That said, it was still an awful play but not just a mindless blind dive.

What is it with defenses allowing quarterbacks to throw 25+ yards down field with no timeouts and less than 10 seconds to go in the game? Rodgers did the exact same thing last year against Dallas. I can't understand how, as a defense, you can allow ANYTHING towards the sideline in those situations.

Hell, even if that safety made the tackle, the Vikings still might have had a second or two left to kick a GW FG. It's just crazy to me.

I hope Nagy can finally get us into the playoffs this year. Tired of sitting at home watching. I dont care if we get in at 8-8 , once the playoffs start anything can happen. Jags are a perfect example.

Not a defender behind whom?

The WR? yes, there was a safety.

Behind Williams? He was the safety! He WAS the guy behind.

Minny did not need a TD. They needed a FG. If every defender is deep, he steps out of bounds and they kick the winner.

That was the guy that dove. They had extra guys at the sideline. A completion there and they lose just the same.

I have confidence in him, but I doubt he gets us into the playoffs THIS year.

The over/under on the NFC Championship will be 3 1/2.

I'd like to see who's favored.

2 or 3 means every defender to you? Don't know what Williams was doing. Looked like he was trying to avoid penalty but should have had 1 or more back there as well just in case 1 does something stupid like that.

Yeah, they probably shouldn't enjoy it.

 

[Gustavus Adolphus]

Best thing about NFL football is when you have a huge play like that everyone stops to find out if it was really a score. So great.

They do get home field advantage in the SB. Would be interesting to see if that is a factor.
