NFC Divisonal Playoffs: Seahawks @ Packers Sunday, Jan 12th, 5:40PM
adambr2 replied to homer's topic in Other Sports
I don't know what to tell you, there's not much more you can ask for this time of year as far as a winnable matchup. There's 8 teams left out of 32 and we aren't a great team as it is. There aren't going to be any gimmees. -
Packers by 3.5 is the opening line.
-
I'm good with Seattle. I assume Wentz would have played next week. Philly for whatever reason just seems to present a tough matchup for us. They are good in the trenches, have some solid RBs and two TEs that can give us fits. Seattle has Wilson, but not much rushing attack to speak of and are pretty decimated by injuries. It won't be easy, but if we play a halfway decent game and don't turn the ball over, we should win.
-
Seattle is a beatable team for sure. But so are we. Talent-wise though, we can match up. Hopefully HFA will the X factor.
-
You'll get hot taked no matter what you do. It's not an egregiously bad call either way I'd agree with that. But hopefully they don't lose 17-15. I'd take a double OT game.
-
They might need the FG as well. A 2 pt conversion is no guarantee. Unless there is so little time left that you have no choice, I don't think teams are wise to treat 8 point deficits like a 1 possession game. I'd assume you have to score twice to err on the safe side.
-
Should have tried the FG. Too early for that. Bad decision by Doug.
-
Despite injuries, the eagles' oline and dline are both formidable groups - I'd rather not face them compared to the seahawks just because those lines could wreck a game. We avoided arguably the most dangerous opponent in the NFC next week. Both Seattle and Philly have legit arguments of why we wouldn't want to play them -- Seattle has the better record and Russell Wilson, but are really beat up. The Eagles are pretty beat up too, but they have some scary tight end matchups for us and a pretty decent stable of running backs and lines, and already won at Lambeau. While either will be tough, either is a beatable opponent. If we aren't playing in the NFC Championship Game at this point, it's on us.
-
It's a false myth when you already own two wins against them. It holds true if it is said before the season begins. BTW, wouldn't "false myth" mean it's true? It doesn't really hold true at all. The only time you could possibly say it is when you already own two wins against a team, otherwise the situation wouldn't come up. You could more truly say "it's rare to play a team 3 times in a season."
-
I really want a Packers/Vikings NFC championship game, but it will be hard to stomach all the people perpetuating the false myth, "It's tough to beat a team 3 times in a season."
-
I can understand ths outrage over the no-call in the Saints/Rams game last year, but this one, come on. That would have been a really weak call on Rudolph. Anyway, could the Packers lose to the Seahawks or Eagles next week? Yes, absolutely. But the toughest team not named the 49ers in the NFC just got eliminated and our chances of making the Super Bowl just went up as a result, that is the bottom line. Plus, I do think Minnesota has a pretty reasonable shot of knocking off the 49ers, certainly more so than the Eagles would. Which I think is the only chance we'll be playing beyond the NFC championship. So again, ugh, go Vikes. They'll play 2 playoff games before we even play our first.
-
Yeah uh...letting Hill walk was a pretty big mistake. If he's a gadget, he's certainly a gadget our offense could use.
-
They can, but their odds would be greater if it wasn't against the Saints.
-
As soon as you saw Hill lined up you knew the ball was going to him, and yet the Vikings decided not to even cover him. Why must they ruin everything?
-
I don't consider 8 points to be a 2 score game, but I don't consider it to be a 1 score game and I think people mislead themselves on strategy at times by considering 8 to be a 1 score game. 8 points is, at best, a 50% chance of being a 1 score game and a 50% chance of being a 2 score game.

Boy is my knowledge on wireless outdated. Just been on my sister in law's plan for years and just upgrade my phone every so often (S9 right now) and pay the bill.
-
Donaldson just doesn't fit the mold of a Grandal 1 year type signing. If we could get him for 1/30 I'm guessing Stearns would be all over it but it's just not going to happen. Donaldson is old, he can get 4 years and probably 9 figures now, this may be his last shot, he is going to take it. No way he risks a 1 year prove it deal now. Grandal was still young enough to take a short-term deal and try again in a better market next year. Donaldson already has a great market and is too old to risk another 1 year coming up such a great season.
-
Eh. I guess I'll have to be the minority disagreer here. The rule isn't intended to allow for a "gotcha" if you flip the ball to the official instead of kneeling it. Either you're giving yourself up or you're not. Obviously his intent was to give himself up. If you want it to be black and white just change the rule that you have to take a knee to give yourself up. But that's not the current rule.
-
There was nothing wrong with going for the 2. It's just a matter of personal preference, there is very little percentage choice difference between the two. But just because most would have kicked it doesn't make the 2 wrong. The smart move would have been to fall on the INT and not return it for the TD.
-
This may be the death of the Patriot's dynasty.
-
Burning all of that clock may come back to haunt them. Agreed. Brilliant move if you're up by like 9 at this point in the game but not 1. It's not like New England doesn't have enough time to score.
-
You know one thing that will keep you from finally knocking off the Patriots in the playoffs? When you're up by 1 with 5 minutes left and you're too much of a wuss to do anything other than punt on 4th and 4 from your opponent's 35.
-
I'm pretty cheap, so I'm just buying Jacks because it's 5 for $10 and as far as getting full for $2 on something that tastes halfway decent, I think it still does the job. I do draw the line at Romas.
-
Wow. How do you opt for 4th and 27 over a 59 yard FG try?
-
I concur. He's terrible.
