NFC Championship game, Green Bay Packers at Seattle Seahawks

[Froob]

The Seahawks are lucky they aren't playing in New York or they'd be arrested for shooting themselves in the foot.

Unreal. Packers dominate but only 16-0 at the half. Packers could lose. Carroll just called in his SoCal drug dealer for a favor.

I have the same quarterback rating as Wilson so far and I'm sitting on my couch.

Can you rush the QB, too??

 

[Patriot Missile]

If Brady could make Caldwell serviceable i bet Baldwin would of been better than 42. Thank god the comparisons to Brady will end today for Wilson. Not even close.

Wilson completed another pass for -2 yards, so he finishes the half 2/9 for 12 yards and 3 interceptions. Oof.

"Oof" enough to make Rodgers look good with a pretty pathetic line:

12/21 115 1 TD 2 INT

Russell Wilson's halftime stat line

2 completions in 9 attempts
0 touchdowns
3 interceptions
14 yards
1.3 yards per pass attempt
2 sacks


So in 11 dropbacks for the Seahawks, they have gained 10 yards - while turning the ball over three times, with 53 yards lost on those returns.

Good on ya, Vrabes. I'm drinking some of this stuff: very sweet, not really "beery", and weighs in at 10%

Sounds cool. I always enjoy the Dogfish experiments. I bet if you age it the flavor would change drastically.

A real good Def hides deficiencies on O. Tate is clearly missed but give props to GB Def makin plays.

 

[reflexblue]

Only 16 points after half a dozen turnovers is actually very impressive.

if you mean seattle yeah, they're still in the game when they shouldn't be.

 

[Bobsyouruncle]

Halftime, time to go to the bathroom and take a Russell Wilson.

 

[letekro]

GB missed an opportunity to end the game in the first half with all those field goals and TOs of their own. We'll see if SEA can make them pay.

3 int + 1 fumble and the Seahawks are only down by 16. Assuming their D continues playing ok and Wilson plays mistake free without clenched butt cheeks, they still have a decent chance of making a game of it in the second half.

 

[VrabelJr]

They've been terrific.

They are really playing "team" defense.

 

[PatsGirl2011]

LOL....I bet Seattle comes back in the second half.

 

[livinginthe past]

Russ Wilson is more Jump-Ball Joe than Flacco himself!

The guy is mentally tough though - don't write these guys off.

 

[English Patriot]

By the way torn a calf doesn't magically heal in 2 weeks, especially when you are constantly using it instead of sitting on a couch. You're kidding yourself if you think Rodgers is healed up before the SB just playing in this game makes it worse.

The media can say all they want but TB12 is the best QB remaining in the playoffs, none of them could make that throw to Lafell last week under that duress and that pressure at such a time in such a game. Also Lafell was held the whole way to the end zone.

 

[A man named Brady]

Any other defense and seattle is down by 30+

 

[Joey007]

Dominant first half by GB. But if Seattle can get 7 coming out of the half, it's still anybody's game

I think the defense is capable but I have yet to find any reason to have ANY sort of faith in that passing game. Bleh.

 

[patriot lifer]

These guys are thinking too hard with the half-time analysis.

STOP TURNING OVER THE BALL!!
