    It has also started to occur to me this week, as I wait for a Saturday that seems it will never arrive, that this is the last week I will really get the feeling of playing with house money. I don’t know about how anyone else sees it, but the whole “they shouldn’t be here and they shouldn’t win” vibe worked last week and will again this week, but no longer. In the hypothetical realm, an NFC championship game comes against either Tampa or Detroit, and that’s a very winnable game either way. Then, once you’re in the Super Bowl, you can’t just be happy to be there. There’s no “aw shucks, we’ll get them next year” for the losers. Even if we face the defending champ Chiefs, or S-tier Ravens, or the red-hot Bills (and we’d be deserving dogs in all those matchups), you have to find a way to win. Rodgers never got back to a second one, so you have to get it when the getting is good, no matter what. So I’m once again trying to remind myself that this week is the postseason at its best. I have no expectations for this game, and it can be pure fun (so long as I don’t think about previous playoff matchups too often). Next week is going to be a different feeling either way.

    I’m still waiting for the 49ers to suffer the consequences of missing on Trey Lance/rolling with Purdy “Mr irrelevant” JAG at the most important position in sports and investing heavily in an oft-injured running back. That kind of hubris ought to result in a bill about a mile long, and it might as well come due this week. I don’t care—Packers by six.

    I mean, if Dan Quinn can get a head coaching gig after what we just did to his charmin-soft defense, I’ll believe anything is possible for Barry.

    It can be done, people. Winning in San Francisco in the playoffs is not like jumping to Mars. (the above link is to highlights of the 1995 divisional round game, which is apparently blocked on third party sites—thanks, NFL)

    Love has more road playoff wins than Patrick Mahomes. Really makes you think…
  6. HarveysWBs
    12 didn’t get that weird until after the Super Bowl and the MVP. I’d love to be in the position to see how Love handles that kind of success.

    Really hope this isn’t it for MM. He deserves a better final chapter to his NFL career.
  8. HarveysWBs
    This is fine. I didn’t want to think we had a really good chance next week or anything. Nice little splash of cold water is just what the doctor ordered.
  9. HarveysWBs
    This is becoming stupid

    Put some respect on Matt LaFleur’s name.
  11. HarveysWBs
    LaFleur has to lose a challenge every game. As is tradition.
  12. HarveysWBs
    Stop scoring so fast!
  13. HarveysWBs
    The all-important battle of the kickers is all knotted up. Really going to come down to the wire.
  14. HarveysWBs
    And now the attrition starts
  15. HarveysWBs
    He’s probably already in the press room.

    Atta boy, Carlson
  17. HarveysWBs
    Nixon and Carlson the only negatives so far. Unbelievable half of football.
  18. HarveysWBs
    Hahaha, Savage!
  19. HarveysWBs
    I’m not expecting either one to finish the game. I just hope Watson doesn’t tear a hammy. He needs the offseason to get his body right, and a bunch of rehab on top of that isn’t ideal.
  20. HarveysWBs
    Good. We can just eliminate the fig leaf of objectivity now. Let’s at least be honest and clear about what is being offered for public consumption in our media.
  21. HarveysWBs
    Carolina is the definition of a poverty franchise. That just keeps looking worse and worse.

    Another January injury to a key contributor right before the playoffs. Can’t make it up. Then again, I also had the same thought as @homer—this team has been playing quite well in the secondary with Valentine and Ballentine, attorneys at ball. But then again, Dallas is a different beast. This is the most complete passing attack our defense has played all season (and is likely to see in this whole tournament). We may be about to find out how much smoke and mirrors Joe Barry has left in the bag.

    After the Lions game on Thanksgiving, I was telling a buddy at work that, for the first time all year, I was simply looking forward to watching the Packers play. I had reached the perfect equilibrium between thinking they could win, at peace with the idea that they probably won’t, and genuinely excited to see what they come up with. I haven’t felt that feeling much as a Packers fan, pretty much forever (my earliest football memories are of the 1994 and 1995 seasons, so most years have been high expectation ones for me). After getting a little over my skis after they beat the Chiefs and I assumed they’d win at least 10, I’m back to the golden mean. And I’m not saying this is predictive or anything, but I haven’t felt like this since…2010? I mean, they probably won’t win a single playoff game, but, could they win any given game? Wouldn’t shock me, not even the 49ers, who can lay an egg with the best of them. I’m just ready to have fun now. [Somebody quote this at me when Carlson misses a FG and an ExP, please…]

    Good job to the kids! Got get a taste of the postseason!
  25. HarveysWBs
    Rivalries just aren’t what they used to be.
