So, how bad are the vikings doing now...

Hmm, 4-7, better then I was expecting...

Awful, awful loss for the Browns yesteday. The defense got 4 turnovers and 2 defensive touchdowns off one of the most explosive offenses in the league, pressured Luck all day, but the offense couldn't do anything at all. I have to imagine Brian Hoyer's now played his last game as a Brown.

Does San Diego even realize that they have a football team? The Chargers were getting booed out of their own stadium and everyone was chanting Brady. If it wasn't for the field I would have thought that was a home game for the Patriots.

Vikings now 6-7,

We're making a Comeback, you'd better believe it.

The NFL...where reaching for the goal line is not considered a "football move".

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #830 on:** January 18, 2015, 06:53:25 PM »

Holy ****, that unexpectedly became one of the greatest football games I've ever seen in the final minutes. One of the all time greatest playoff collapses by the Packers. Seattle's a team of destiny, they can't be stopped.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #831 on:** January 18, 2015, 07:41:10 PM »

Agreed. That was simply amazing.

I could tell something happened because the neighbors were screaming like an ax murderer was in their midst doing his thing. I then realized this was Sunday and not Saturday and ran to check the score. What a finish that was. I predict a mediocre Superbowl. Hawks will "earn" the Superbowl in the semi-finals like they did last year.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #833 on:** January 18, 2015, 10:14:15 PM »

Yeah, the Patriots are pretty decent.

ShyGuy · « **Reply #834 on:** January 19, 2015, 12:56:48 AM »

I still had people still yelling Seahawks at me on the street an hour after the game.

Hawks and Patriots, this should be interesting.

Ceric · « **Reply #835 on:** January 19, 2015, 12:12:53 PM »

I'm going to come out and say it that the NFL needs to sit down and do something about there team. Its not a competitive league. Don't get me wrong. I'm happy someone from my Division even made it to the Championships but, there was this interesting stat that they popped up during the game. Tom Brady has played in more Post Season games than 21 FRANCHISES. That's a little wrong and shows you that you don't have a competitive organization. If you want to Win in the NFL there is only a handful of teams that can get you there is what that says. Which is not good for the game.

Poor Packers...

With the Seahawks game I went from shouting at the screen to screaming at it.

I had a bad omen at the beginning as I got confused about the start time and turned the game on when it was already halfway through the first quarter. So already I'm in a bad mood and Seattle is down by six and is just playing like ****. I spent 90% of that game in a downer mood, complaining about how embarrassing it was for them to end the season with such a lame performance. I'm a Canucks fan. I've seen the "let the fans get emotionally invested in you only for you to **** the bed when it matters" routine many times before. It feels like a con, like you were a sucker to get excited in the first place. It's not a con if your team plays well but loses. It's a con when they play so poorly it looks like they're not even trying.

And then they go and pull this miracle victory completely out of their asses! This must feel awful for Packer fans. Once the Hawks got the onside kick my assumptions completely flipped. "They're going to do this! Holy ****!" There were Seahawk players crying after the game. I was just shocked. Throughout the rest of the day I kept asking my brother if it really happened. Even now it doesn't seem real.

Now we face the Patriots who are my absolute least favourite team. I've never cared for Tom Brady. I remember an interview a few years back, where he was talking about being drafted in the sixth round and was crying about it! "Well I've won three Superbowls, I'm a millionaire married to a supermodel, I'm the greatest player in Patriots history, a sure-lock hall of famer and in the discussion as the greatest quarterback of my generation. I have proven every doubter wrong... but I was slighted in the draft and it still hurts so much that I'm crying like a baby even though being drafted PERIOD is an opportunity that most people never get in the first place." What a fucking entitled prick. Everything has worked out for him but he whines and cries about a teeny tiny speed bump along the way.

Of course with my favourite team against my least favourite team, this makes my personal stakes in the Superbowl that much greater. With last year's win I can live with them losing this year but losing to New England? Letting Tom Brady get a fourth ring? Ugh, that would really annoy me.

The only thing it shows is that there are less than 32 decent quarterbacks in the league right now.

Nile Boogie Returns · « **Reply #838 on:** January 19, 2015, 09:41:57 PM »

7.1BILLION PEOPLE ON EARTH AND ONLY 5 GREAT QUARTERBACKS. That speaks to me in a "pale blue dot" kinda way.

Tom Brady has been the best QB of all time for 6 years now but he hasn't done much to widen the gap since then. If he wins another then I think he puts a little more room between him and Joe.

I still can't believe I watched Packers choke away another playoff game. I didn't think I could see anything worse than the "4th and 26" game years ago against the Eagles. This one is going to sting for a loooooong time.

Still, they had a great season and there's always next year!

Stogi · « **Reply #840 on:** January 21, 2015, 12:31:14 AM »

Did you guys watch the same game I did? Apparently you did not. My bad.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #841 on:** January 21, 2015, 01:34:50 AM »

I'm not sure which last play you're talking about...the last play was a (perfect) touchdown pass, the last play in the regular game was a field goal. I don't think there was a single roughing the passer call in the game (there was a blindside hit called, 100% correctly, against Clay Matthews (who really should have been ejected for that). There was only one pass interference call and it was against Seattle. The Packers weren't snubbed, they just made a huge mistake on the onside kick and lost because of it. I can only assume you're making stuff up, or talking about their game from September 2012 with the replacement refs.

Stogi · « **Reply #842 on:** January 21, 2015, 01:48:48 AM »

Yeah, I searched for highlights from a playoff game since I wasn't able to watch it and got the highlights from a different game. Completely idiotic on my part. I'll go watch the real games highlights.

Stogi · « **Reply #843 on:** January 21, 2015, 02:03:22 AM »

Ahem...yeah...

That game was amazing.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #844 on:** January 21, 2015, 08:55:48 AM »

You're excused for not keeping up with either team, but Golden Tate has been playing for the Lions all season so that would have been a giveaway...

Shaymin · « **Reply #845 on:** January 21, 2015, 08:42:16 PM »

Ballghazi might be the stupidest controversy in the history of the big four American sports + NFL.

BranDonk Kong · « **Reply #846 on:** January 21, 2015, 10:45:26 PM »

It arguably would not have changed the outcome of the game, however it's still cheating. The balls had ~15% less pressure in them which makes them much easier to catch.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #847 on:** January 21, 2015, 11:01:42 PM »

I don't condone cheating, but I just love Belichick's insanity. To even think of the plan to slightly deflate all the balls to give yourself an advantage is crazy, let alone to actually do it.

NWR_insanolord · « **Reply #848 on:** February 01, 2015, 10:10:56 PM »

How many Super Bowls is Pete Carroll going to have to win to get people to stop talking about that play call?

Soren · « **Reply #849 on:** February 01, 2015, 10:13:44 PM »

It's almost like Seattle really thought the Patriots were going to let them score to get the ball back.
