Why didn't GB run the clock all the way down before calling the timeout? Now they'll have to kickoff if they make the FG.

 

this is going to OT, better question is why Lynch didnt stop at the 1. 4 plays to score a TD, they would have and run down some time

 

 

...or you not be stupid and give the defense a chance to stop you when you're losing.

 

they could have had it at the 1/2 yard line with 4 downs and what 1:2x on the clock? Seattle would have been fine

When you've got the TD, you don't pass it up if you're down. Too many weird things could happen.

 

Exactly. You can't mess around with a fumbled snap, or an actual fumble.

 

Plus the Seahawks have one of the best secondaries and overall defenses in the league. They should have all the confidence in the world that they would hold GB

Most likely but not guaranteed. You don't risk it. You trust your defense which is the best in the league.

nobody beats Rodgers in his no huddle drill

Most likely, but what happens if there's a bad snap and GB gets the ball? Or GB is able to put up a great stand?

 

Both scenarios are very unlikely, but can happen and would cost you your season. You can't take that chance.

and what happens when you play GOD who wears a #12 jersey? you dont, if you can avoid it. You arent going to beat Rodgers with over a minute left in the game and all three timeouts, no matter how good you think you might plan and when your top CB is hurt

What happens is you go into overtime instead of losing. Something goes wrong with your plan, Seattle loses. Something goes wrong with what they did, they go to OT. The latter is better than the former.

Two upsets today was probably too much to ask for.

 

I'll settle for just Indy winning, though I'm expecting them to get destroyed.

They were pretty damned lucky to get the 2 point conversion and not lose on that field goal.

yes

 

I cant argue with the overall results, but man it was scary

That's a good point. Odds are on your side to convert the conversion, though - they just didn't run that one well at all.

Green Bay imploded about as impressively as I've ever seen any team implode.

2 point conversions are a little under 50%. Maybe Seattle has it a bit better than that, but the odds weren't good.

The Packers turned into the Bears for 30 minutes.
