NFL Division Round: Packers at Falcons

[tests]

if we make it to the SB, i wonder how belichick will adjust to the packers. And more importantly, how we will fare against aaron rodgers instead of that other backup QB.

I'm not on anything, except a little bourbon. If you have a point, let me know and I'd be glad to discuss it with you.

You can't really predict a outcome.

The pats put 45 against the jets d and a backup qb almost beat the pats at home, explain that?

21 points down with 12 minutes to go. Falcons driving. Even if they score here, they're going to need to convert an onsides kick to keep it going.
Ball got fumbled by Ryan. Game Over.

Turnovers have been critical in the playoffs thus far. Falcons turn over the ball 3 times and are getting blown out.

god, ryan keeps choking.

Packers will still need to go on the road against the Bears or Hawks. The Bears are a way better defensive team then the Falcons.

And if it is a Pats v GB Superbowl, BB plans way better against a QB with more film to study of off than Matt Flynn.

Well that's certainly a revelation. I'm still fairly confident the Patriots would drop a big steaming mud monster on this Falcons team. Let's say nine times out of ten?

 

[JMarr]

Good lord, Ryan is going to have to put in a lot more hard work to become a upper tier NFL QB. He and Flacco both crowned as legit way too early.

I'm pretty sure we all agree with you. What's your point? That our teams really good? Again, yes we all agree.

 

[luvbrain]

Will anyone accuse the Packers of running up the score? After all, they are still throwing the ball...:bricks:

 

[mosi]

And that seals it.

Anybody honestly think the Seahawks or Bears would stand a chance against them?

GB looked like the best team in the NFC before their injuries and now they're playing out of their minds. And we remember how good they looked WITHOUT Rodgers.

Yes. As crazy as it sounds, Chicago could beat GB. A division game in chicago would be tight. In GB, in a game they had to win, they barely beat Chicago, who had nothing to play for.

Crazy world. I actually think Seattle could beat GB and could actually be hosting the NFC championship game.

Aikman doesn't see how anyone other than McCarthy should win Coach of the Year. Eh...

Keep Rogers in the pocket and use pressure very sparingly. Take away the intermediate routes. Don't get corner happy or they'll Kuhn you to death. I'd force Rogers to become a timing based surgeon- something which he isn't.

Sigh. No, my point is that the Packers owning the Falcons doesn't prove that the Packers are some sort of juggernaut, because the Falcons are deeply flawed and overrated. Chicago, for example, has been pretty successful in limiting their offense.

Lol and he said Rodgers deserves the MVP and that he would prefer to have him over any other QB to build his team around

the bears might pose green bay some problems (green bay had trouble scoring vs them in their last meeting), but the seahawks? I dont see the hawks going through saints, bears and then packers. nO WAY

While I think GB is a shade overrated after tonight... that's a tall order. The Seahawks are still the Seahawks.

 

[Run DMC]

Aikman needs to go back in the closet. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink. And did I mention Joe (Mr. Hyperbole) Buck? Awful commentators.

 

[Fball]

Not exactly what he said. It was more along the lines of if he was taking over a franchise & building around one player for the future, he'd pick Rodgers. Which makes sense, because he's both good & young.

yea, seems like rodgers is much better when hes scramblig out of the pocket and making on the run throws.

 

[Kontradiction]

That's funny, Troy, he stared that damn throw the whole time. His read is simple: throw at 21.

He actually shouldn't even be playing. He started the season as their nickelback, got benched, and is only playing today because the guy he got benched for was hurt in Week 17 and couldn't go today.
