2016 NFL THREAD - Super Bowl 51 - Patriots' Day: V - Screw Goodell

[Dream Team]

Too easy to start chasing the points.

Meanwhile, Dallas is getting away with all kinds of holds on Gb WRs.

Just gonna say the same thing. Blatant stuff.

To me, this is easily the most exasperating thing about the NFL right now. There is NO consistency on how they call holding (off or def) and pass interference. Totally random. Holding on every play, and once in awhile they decide to flag it.

What's upsetting is when it's GLARING. It goes on every play and for the most part it's 'allowed'....but when they are glaring holds, especially on receivers that's what drives me insane. There were three solid...glaring holds on GB receivers in the first half that were ignored.

Dallas got some momentum going into the half. You can just tell this will go down to the wire.

Yep. It'll be interesting to see if GB gets any points on the opening drive of the second half.

Hmm...

[TAC]

Wow what a pick!

[TAC]

If someone told me that Jason Whitten had never caught a post season TD, I would've never believed them.

[Dublagent66]

You called it Kev.  Going down to the wire.

[KevShmev]

Yep. Prescott and Elliot are both really good.

Time for Rodgers to impose his will and get the win.  FG won't cut it; go for the touchdown.

[TheCountOfNYC]

This has "controversial, game changing officiating decision" written all over it.

You called it.

[KevShmev]

Crosby bails them out of some atrocious play-calling.

[King Postwhore]

What a game.

[TAC]

That's a money FG, and drive for the Cowboys!

[KevShmev]

What a catch by Cook. Wow.

[King Postwhore]

What a throw and catch to set up a 50 yard field goal!!!

[King Postwhore]

Holy shit!! 

[TheCountOfNYC]

This is one of the best football games I have ever seen. So much drama and so many moments that will make future highlight reels. Even that game winning field goal looked like it wasn't gonna make it at first and curved back in at the last second. This will probably end up being the best game of the season.

Couldn't have said it better.  Just unreal.

[gmillerdrake]

Just wow. What can be said? Unreal

[Dream Team]

Rodgers is SICK.

[King Postwhore]

The way he throws on the,run is mind blowing.

[faizoff]

What an amazing game and I am very glad the Packers came out on top. Those non calls by the refs favoring the Cowboys were really pissing me off. I mean this Dallas team is legit, nothing to take away from them. They played amazing as well and I for sure thought they would win after tying the game. Packers will have it very tough against the Falcons who just might head to the superbowl.
But wow what an amazing game, I'm not a home supporter of any of the two teams but man did it keep me on the edge.

[Destiny Of Chaos]

Incredible game for sure. Can't wait to see Rodgers and Ryan do their thing next week.

Now GO CHIEFS!

[King Postwhore]

 

I'm just upset its horse face that gets to do that.

[Dublagent66]

Oh well, can't say it wasn't a good game.  That was football at its finest.

[KevShmev]

I'm just upset its horse face that gets to do that.

Might be worth DVRing that nonsense tomorrow.

Also, I've seen Shannon Sharpe on Cowherd's show (which I DVR every day and occasionally flip through to hear sports talk), and he does a good job with analysis. Yeah, he's a loud mouth, but his insight is very good. 

[King Postwhore]

Oh I know but you know.... 

So Goodell was at Atlanta this weekend so........


He'llbe back at Atlanta next week.

[contest_sanity]

Cowboys left Rogers too much time. Falcon fan here; I hope we can avoid a similar fate next week. I have confidence in our team, but Rodgers terrifies me... should be a great game.

Haha, yep.

Both teams should score a lot.  Both defenses are playing better, but both can be had, and will be by the opposing offenses.  Not getting Jordy Nelson back will hurt the Pack, though. I don't care what they say, with cracked ribs, you aren't coming back that soon.

[Dream Team]

Horrible play calling in the red zone. Three field goals  .

[splent]

I hate skip bayless with a passion. What excuses will he give NOW

[faizoff]

I'm going to wager that the Steelers are going to come out on top of this game making this my only wrong pick in the playoffs so far. This game has been really tight and defense dominated on both sides. I think if the Steelers win this, they're going to the superbowl. I don't know if the patriots given how they played yesterday get the better of the steelers.

[TAC]

The only team in the AFC that Pats fans consider a threat is the Steelers. So they'll give the Pats a game for sure. I wouldn't look at yesterday's game to mean anything next week. The best thing about it is that they played like shit and it gives Belichick a reason to ride their asses all week. And as bad as they played, they still covered the fourth biggest point spread in playoff history.
