Dead horse. But it completely sucks that we lost Parsons this year of all years. 

The #1 seed is Darnold. The Rams are forced to play a road game at Carolina where they lost a month ago. SF can't stop anyone. The Bears are a fraud. 

We'd by no means be any kind of lock, but we'd be right in the mix of legitimate contention with just that one guy. If we throw in Wyatt I would have loved to see how this had shaken out.

The Rams have to be happy with the way it's laying out for them.

I don't understand why Siriani was content to go into the playoffs as the #3 seed.

Because the difference between the Packers and the 49ers isn't big. DVOA after week 17:

Now add in that Packers mostly rested in week 18 while the 49ers just got run over by a punishing Seahawks defense. So you can rest players or risk injury for a little to no gain.

I said that after the Wyatt injury. Little did I know it was going to get much worse :😂

It’s hard to be optimistic about the Packers’ chances, especially since they have absolutely no momentum going into the playoffs.

Every team in the NFC North finished over .500.

Every team in the NFC South finished under .500.

What makes it even funnier is the Falcons were eliminated from playoff contention a month ago and still finished tied for first place.

Raheem Morris reportedly fired by Atlanta.

I never had much optimism even before the injuries. My faith in MLF was basically at zero even after we got Parsons.

I thought it was a 1-900 number?

That stupid punch by DK Metcalf is going to cost the Steelers the division.

Me too. I wonder if he carries some kind of a special team hex with him.

 

[duewizard]

A-Rod will be let down by special teams one last time

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Not so sure Aaron is done. Steelers want him back and you'd be hard pressed to find more pathetic QB play since 2018 than Pitt. Atrociously bad at that position. They will at least try to talk him back, I think. Not sure why since he is carrying them to purgatory, but I think he'll be back.

He's endured some real crushing special failures.

[duewizard]

OH MY GOD LMAO

[yourout]

Wow .... That was fun.

[Team Canada]

That 4th quarter was bonkers.

[da swedish german]

OH MY GOD

[duewizard]

Just wow.

Good for A-Rod. 

[HarveysWBs]

What a stupid, fantastic fourth quarter of a football game. Unbelievable stuff.

That was a lot more fun than most of the Packer games were this year

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Everything about that Steelers finish looked Green and Gold until Baltimore missed the field goal, which of course never happens for us. 

[Jimbo]

Despite the recent history, I'm still a Rodgers fan.  The only reason I watched the last nine minutes of this one.  Wow.
