NFL Playoffs: Wildcard Round

[WrigleyField 22]

They're not wrong.

[PackLandVA]

49ers 27-13.

 

......and if SF can stop Cook, they can stop Jones.

 

Perhaps, but Minnesota’s O-Line is trash. Packers line much better IMO.

 

SF pass rush is much better than Seattle', should cause some problems for GB.

 

Agree 100%, but wasn’t comparing the two lines, nor referring in my post to pass rush. Just think the Packers OLine is better all around (pass blocking and run blocking in this case) than the Vikes dogsh!t line.

Welp, Im on team AFC this year

That's ok, after they lose in SF their Packers will be just like the Bears - watching the SB.

Bulaga was just sick and not hurt, right? He should be fine to play next week?

[JudasIscariotTheBird]

 

Well the niners trucked them earlier in the year but it’s usually much harder the 2nd time around.

 

I still think the niners win. We’ll see.

Yeah, it will probably be closer than last time, but the 49ers are a much better team. Packers need Jimmy G to make some bad decisions/throws to win.

Yes, flu going around the team this past week. Hopefully he's better because Veldheer was not awesome today, but better than previous years' backups.

That's not too far fetched, he's a tick or two better than Mitch and completely capable of Mitch level bad play. If the Niners get the ground game going the Packers are done.

Yeah at least the niners haven’t lost their entire RB corps and overall aren’t a broke down mess like the hawks.

I haven't watched a ton of non-Bears football this year, but watching that Chiefs/Texans game I thought three things.

 

1. Watson is really really good. I felt bad for him for the amount of times in that game where it seemed like he was taking on the whole KC defense by himself.

 

2. Mahomes is unreal and is legitimately putting together a HOF resume with each throw. I know we saw him in week 16, but he made so many amazing throws. Even before they started scoring, he was hitting his guys in the hands, they just weren't holding on. He is amazing and I'm more jealous than I have ever been... like ever. Not just the Mahomes era.

 

3. As great as Mahomes was, it is also pretty amazing how much a big athletic TE can help that offense. I know we're all down on Mitch, but if the front office focuses on bringing in and developing O-Line talent and an impact TE, I have a lot more hope for what this offense can do.

Not sure where to put this, but this is probably the best place.

 

Luke Kuechly retired. It's suck for a guy to see awesome players like him, Willis, Gronk, etc. to retire so early, but it's the right decision.

Saw the headline, has he been hurt? Or just trying to get out of the NFL alive?

He missed like 7 games this year due to concussions.

Well, I remember this happening:

The retirement probably came multiple years too late.

what was that generic ass computer generated news program?

Dunno. Just the first youtube vid that showed a brain damaged man crying.

Not this year. The video above is from 2016, and he missed the rest of that season. Ever since, he was probably 1 more concussion from hanging it up, and I've been bracing for this for a while now. Luckily, as far as we know, he never got another concussion.

 

I'm going to miss watching him a lot. My wife just got me a Kuechly jersey for Christmas because I had mentioned once that if I got another jersey it'd probably be him due to his already being a legend. I figured he would be out within a couple years. The most technically flawless player I've ever seen on a field.

If anyone cares to see an absolutely exhaustive breakdown about why the Packers D is simultaniously good and abysmal, and why they are going to get smashed again if they don't make adjustments:

Packers vs Chiefs would be a rematch of super bowl I. I don't want to see the Packers win but I'd bet everybody that gets paid to write about this game hopes this happens. Evidently, during half time of Super Bowl I, they had 2 guys flying around on jet packs. It would be cool to see footage of that dredged up during the 9 hour pre game show.

This reminds me of the guy in college who told us about a halftime show involving flying lawnmowers that killed once of the spectators.

 

We laughed at him and convinced him he was a delusional moron whose older brother made him think he saw something that never happened.

 

Anyway, turns out it was true.

Holy buckets.

Im conflicted on the AFC championship. While I like Tennessee (underdog), I worry their wheels will fall off sooner or later. And I’d hate it to be in the SB against GB

 

Go Tirans, Go SF

[JudasIscariotTheBird]

I know its just a token endorsement, but I was mildly surprised to see the Bolden commercial on TV, let alone with an NFL logo attached to it at the end. It didn't pull punches.

[Soul]

I don’t get the TEN defense strategy. It’s 100% sure they can’t stop KC dropping into coverage...
