NFC Championship Game Thread

[86spike]

When I called him Russell Tebow, I didn't expect the wild late scrambling come back act too. LOL

 

[PayrodsFirstClutchHit]

Put the GB player that botched the onside kick on Donnie Moore watch.

 

[riboflav]

Was rooting for the Pack because they're poorly coached team and I would hate losing to Pete Fucking Carroll. 

 

[twibnotes]

Fox needs to stop talking about Bostick.

Agreed. Pack had so many chances to close and didn't make the plays on offense

 

[Freddy Linn]

Record contract coming up for him

 
Yeah, no. That is going to the QB about to play.

 

[H78]

Good news: Sherman is beat up. Let's hope it's a problem.

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Still think this Seattle team is a pretender. GB is just not a well coached team.

I don't really agree. I mean, Seattle made those plays to keep GB out of the end zone. Seven or eight trips inside the 40 and GB kept coming away empty or with FGs. GB was way too conservative but still, Seattle gave themselves a chamce with some pretty great defense to keep it a 16 point game.

 

[Lose Remerswaal]

Pushed the Pats game back 20 minutes for 3 minutes of OT?  Awesome.  Like these minutes don't already go by like days...

Ten minutes. Was scheduled for 6:40 all along

 

[KingPK]

So how does Seattle NOT win in two weeks? Destiny. They aren't shitting the bed in the first half again.

 

[AbbyNoho]

Very hard to beat a team that has stared death in the eyes as this team did.

Death? Green bay was the one playing scared the whole game. No risks no reward

 

[kieckeredinthehead]

I don't know if I've ever seen that many miracles in a span of five minutes in my entire life.

Coincidentally that's the title for the follow up to a Gronk to Remember

 

[patinorange]

Or the guy who went down on the INT.

Yes. What the hell was that?

 

[theapportioner]

I don't know if I've ever seen that many miracles in a span of five minutes in my entire life.

 
This guy might disagree.
 

 

[Dave Stapleton]

Pete is officially pumped and jacked.

 

[Ed Hillel]

 
Like the Pats last week?

It's started already. Not to mention Sherman ain't getting better in 2 weeks, though I don't doubt he'll play.

 

[Three10toLeft]

I don't know if I've ever seen that many miracles in a span of five minutes in my entire life.

"McCarthycles"

 

[Morgan's Magic Snowplow]

That was one of the worst coached playoff games (by MM) that I've ever seen.

 

[MentalDisabldLst]

No team down 9 after 3 quarters in conference championship game has won.

No matter what you think of them, the number of jinx posts in this game thread truly boggles the mind.

 

[Remagellan]

Wilson 3-0 against Rodgers 2-0 vs Brees 2-0 vs Eli 2-0 vs Peyton 1-0 vs Brady.

 

[AbbyNoho]

So how does Seattle NOT win in two weeks? Destiny.

According to chancellor god wants them to win.

 

[twibnotes]

Russell Wilson is 10-0 against QBs who have won the Super Bowl.

I think we learned today that his defense and marshawn lynch play a major role

 

[McBride11]

They absolutely should fire McCarthy before he gets on the fucking plane.  What a fucking awful coach.

 
Who was that Kiffin after USC?

 

[Kliq]

There are not enough goat horns to go around for GB. McCarthy for being to conservative, Bostick for fudging the onside kick, HaHa for taking a nap on the conversion, and that DB who slid down after the interception with tons of open space in front of him. Seattle looked like total shit, bring them on if we win.

 

[Yaz4Ever]

I cannot believe that outcome. Looked utterly impossible with 5 to go.

I turned to my son at that point and said "this game is done." He said "there's still five minutes left."

Stupid onside kick muff. Oh well. The real game is yet to come. Assumed Seattle would win, but I got excited for Green Bay when they seemed destined to win it.

 

[patinorange]

Good news: Sherman is beat up. Let's hope it's a problem.

Something tells me he will be fine.

 

[Leather]

So how does Seattle NOT win in two weeks? Destiny. They aren't shitting the bed in the first half again.

Lol. Ok.

 

[Grimace-HS]

I swapped to CBS to check in on the Patriots game start before OT, so I can't rewind the DVR to the onside kick again.  But did Bostick really make a mistake there, or was it just good play by Seattle on the onside kick?  
 
What a finish, can congrats to the Seahawks.  But I always feel bad if a turnaround like that falls on one player....it is hard not to feel bad for GB there.

 

[AbbyNoho]

Like the Pats last week?

Shuddup you, that doesn't follow his narrative ofdooooom

 

[Ed Hillel]

Something tells me he will be fine.

Was it the way his arm was dangling?

Through his hands and off his head. All his fault

 

[Leather]

GB played conservative from the third quarter on. I didn't think it would bite them in the ass, but it did.

 

[patinorange]

I heard he and Suggs have the same doctor.

 

[wibi]

Shoulder looks fine based on someone patting him on the shoulder post game

My guess is hyperextended elbow

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

That was one of the worst coached playoff games (by MM) that I've ever seen.

you're being kind

 

[Grimace-HS]

Through his hands and off his head. All his fault

Okay, thanks....wow, that's tough.

 

[Ed Hillel]

I think he broke his arm or wrist.

Tough dude.

 

[AbbyNoho]

Wilson 3-0 against Rodgers 2-0 vs Brees 2-0 vs Eli 2-0 vs Peyton 1-0 vs Brady.

He was horrible today. His TEAM has those records, not just him.

 

[HriniakPosterChild]

If I were a Packers fan I would never stop wondering just wtf Dix was doing on the conversion.

 
Ha ha.

 

[singaporesoxfan]

It's time to start a McCarthy witch hunt.

 

[Royal Reader]

Just... holy shit.  Let's see the next game not be anywhere near as close, please.

 

[HriniakPosterChild]

Russell Wilson is 10-0 against QBs who have won the Super Bowl.*

 
*With an assist from his punter.

 

[valentinscycle]

As a Bears fan this is as happy as a football game has made me in at least eight years.

 

[Wade Boggs Hair]

Fireworks being set off in my (Seattle area) neighborhood. Holy crap, what a game.

 

[theapportioner]

I think he broke his arm or wrist.

Tough dude.

 
I'm going to guess a distal radius fracture.

 

[DJnVa]

Or the guy who went down on the INT.

 
I was listening on the radio. Whoever was doing the national radio call LOVED that play.

 

[singaporesoxfan]

Once again, Wisconsin gets screwed over by being represented by a too-conservative McCarthy.

 

[Remagellan]

He was horrible today. His TEAM has those records, not just him.

Please it's a team game but people still eat up the Brady vs Manning junk. Lets just win this week and take our chances in two weeks.

 

[Gunfighter 09]

I cannot believe that outcome. Looked utterly impossible with 2:30 to go.

 
Fixed this for you. 
 
I have no issue with how GB used their timeouts, it took a great tackle on Nelson to avoid GB having three or four shots at the end zone with the whole field to play with under :30 seconds. Further, if Rogers had any ability to run on the last second down where he pitched it at Lacy rather than run, GB is 1-10 from the ~25 with more than :30 and two TOs. 
 
The play calling in the fourth quarter is an entirely different matter. 

 

[Rook05]

Just... holy shit.  Let's see the next game not be anywhere near as close, please.

After last week, no thank you.

 

[SemperFidelisSox]

The first half was not an accurate picture of this Seattle offense. They found themselves in the unfamiliar territory of being down two scores early and abandoned the run.

You saw in the 4th quarter and overtime how good Wilson and that unit can be when they get Lynch going.
