this is delicious

I don't know why announcers are always surprised with the 10 second runoff under a minute left and no TOs with the clock running.

 

That absolutely killed them.

 

What's funny is that normally when that call happens its because the offense commits a false start trying to rush to the line, but the Packers were set at the line, their guy just moved like a dumbass and cost them the game

[mul21]

Holy [expletive] that was unreal! I thought Flynn was throwing it to Nelson and he was wide open and it probably would have been a TD.

Perfect day so far. Division could be clinched tonight against a team that may or may not care about this game. Win and don't have to go to New Orleans. It's on you now Bears.

 

BEAR THE [expletive] DOWN!

Poor clock management by McCarthy. Just like the end of the Bears-Packers game.

[Guest]

what a devastating false start

[Careless]

Hahaha

[ctcf]

Plus, Lacy might be hurt. Could be huge for next week.

Not to mention Arizona won, so New Orleans may not even make the playoffs.

[UMFan83]

Steelers can somehow still make the playoffs with a fairly realistic scenario:

 

Win vs. Cleveland

Dolphins lose vs. Jets

Chargers lose vs. KC

Ravens lose vs. Bengals

 

Probably won't happen and the Bengals have nothing to play for now, but considering they needed 4 different things to go right to stay alive going into week 17, not bad Steelers

If they win tonight it won't matter.

Yeah seriously, I gained a lot of respect for the Cardinals today, but please play them in the 1st round.

I think its more likely that Arizona becomes the 2nd team to finish 11-5 and not make the playoffs. I think they have to beat SF and hope SF loses tomorrow at home to Atlanta or NO loses at home to Tampa

Not only do the Eagles have nothing to play for tonight, they have viable reasons to pull punches and save legs.

God I can't believe I'm so invested in the playoff fate of a team that will almost certainly be routinely dispatched in the first round

 

But at least it makes up for missing the playoffs the last 2 years

To me it's mostly about wanting Trestman to get off to a good start.

[gscool89]

You never know, the Bears would be hosting the playoff game so they have a good chance to win one.

[UMFan83]

Just think, if the Cowboys didn't collapse last week we'd have already clinched. Or if that Vikings game didn't happen

We will see what school Kelly belongs to.

 

To me you get what you deserve if you try to dial it back and then just expect to turn it back on the next week like that.

 

But there are definitely coaches who do that.

To me it's having that chance. You never know once you're in the playoffs and that's all I care about.

Yeah I don't know though it's basically an exhibition game for them. Play the key guys a half maybe a little more. Keep them fresh but that's all. Wishful thinking of course.
