It's weird not having a 10:00 game. Isn't there usually a 10:00 game on the Saturday of divisional weekend?

KevShmev · « **Reply #1856 on:** January 16, 2021, 02:46:45 PM »

It's been this way for years now for the divisional round, the first game later in the afternoon and the second game in the evening.

The end of the first quarter when Rodgers tries to draw them offsides with that last “hut”

The Packers offense is having its way with this number one ranked Rams defense. They look like the best team in the league right now.

I will never trust a Packers defense, never.

Agreed. But it’s promising.

The Rams are fighting, but the Packers D is starting to tighten up.

KevShmev · « **Reply #1863 on:** January 16, 2021, 05:16:47 PM »

Rams fought their way back in it, but Rodgers just threw a dagger to Lazard that should be the capper.

So I just hear the Bucs are a much different team than when the Saints beat them twice... well so are the Packers when the Bucs beat them. So if the Bucs win that’ll be an insane game.

KevShmev · « **Reply #1866 on:** January 16, 2021, 05:25:23 PM »

We have never gotten Rodgers vs Brady or Rodgers vs Brees in a playoff game before, and it looks like that will the case next week (barring an injury to the winning QB tomorrow).

TheCountOfNYC · « **Reply #1867 on:** January 16, 2021, 05:29:20 PM »

Rodgers/Brady never happening is obvious as up until this season that matchup could only happen in the Super Bowl, but I can’t believe we’ve never gotten Rodgers/Brees before. I’m rooting for the Saints tomorrow regardless, but that matchup I feel is far more meaningful, as Aaron and Drew have been the top two QB’s in the NFC for the last 12 years. If this is Brees’ last run, they deserve to have that defining playoff battle before he calls it quits.

Either way. The Packers are a completely different team from when they played them last during the season.

I haven’t been this excited since 1997. The NFC championship at Lambeau? Why yes please.

I have my preferences (Saints > Packers >>> Buccaneers) but I'm already leaning NFC come Super Bowl time. The only team that could POSSIBLY get me to root for them in the AFC is the Browns, and that's not really "football" as much as it is "culture" (meaning, I might want them to win because they're a blue collar, meat-and-potatoes town). I don't dislike the Bills or the Ravens, but I can't root for them against what might come out of the NFC.

I think this Bills/Ravens game is going to be a great football game.

There's an extreme lack of Pat Mahomes in this post.

There’s a reason for that.

This will be the first NFC championship game for Rodgers at Lambeau.

TheCountOfNYC · « **Reply #1873 on:** January 16, 2021, 07:27:43 PM »

The Bills defense is doing exactly what I hoped they would: taking away Lamar Jackson’s running lanes and forcing him to use his subpar arm. Now the Bills offense needs to wake up.

King Postwhore · « **Reply #1874 on:** January 16, 2021, 07:50:24 PM »

The wind is definitely affecting the Bills O.

KevShmev · « **Reply #1875 on:** January 16, 2021, 08:11:37 PM »

Great game so far, but then again I love a good defensive game where it feels like every 1st down is huge.

And is there a better team this year at halftime adjustments than the Bills? Their coaching staff has been great at those all season. They went right down the field for a TD to start the 2nd half after struggling their way to only 3 points in the first half.

TheCountOfNYC · « **Reply #1876 on:** January 16, 2021, 08:24:04 PM »

Huge pick-6! That might be the play that fully puts the momentum in Buffalo’s favor.

Dream Team · « **Reply #1877 on:** January 16, 2021, 08:32:36 PM »

Yup that’s game. It doesn’t matter how great your running game is, to win big in today’s NFL you HAVE to be able to pass effectively. HAVE to.

I know I’ve been critical of Jackson, but him getting hurt is huge for the Ravens. His raw talent gives them a chance no matter what, so him being out or compromised really hinders their chances.

KevShmev · « **Reply #1879 on:** January 16, 2021, 08:40:31 PM »

Bills take a 17-3 lead and then knock Jackson out of the game (he is in concussion protocol). They have seized control of this game.

TheCountOfNYC · « **Reply #1880 on:** January 16, 2021, 08:42:56 PM »

If New Orleans gets past Tampa, I’ll be fine with every team left (I’m rooting for Cleveland but I still like Kansas City).

King Postwhore · « **Reply #1881 on:** January 16, 2021, 08:53:16 PM »

KevShmev · « **Reply #1882 on:** January 16, 2021, 08:54:55 PM »

I just want good games the rest of the way, so whichever teams can make that happen, I am all for it.

If they were up 21-12, would they have assumed control?

King Postwhore · « **Reply #1884 on:** January 16, 2021, 08:58:35 PM »

The way N.O. have played against the Bucs that score would be close Josh.

It honestly has more to do with Drew Brees being my favorite QB than a certain number 12 being my least favorite athlete of all time.

I'm just loving the "It's hard to beat a team 3 times" rhetoric that's being parroted ad nauseum this week. It's literally harder to beat a team 2-0 in the same season than 3-0 since teams going for a 3-0 sweep in the playoffs are like 14-7 since the merger. Sports media is both lazy and blatantly dishonest.
