SNF Discussion: Lions at Packers

[Mike FF Today 596]

Inactives

Lions: CB Jeff Okudah, RB Craig Reynolds, RB Jermar Jefferson, DL Michael Brockers, DL Austin Bryant, OG Kayode Awosika, OG Ross Pierschbacke

Packers: CB Shemar Jean-Charles, OT Rasheed Walker, OT Caleb Jones, WR Bo Melton, DL Jonathan Ford

Packers win, they're in the playoffs.

If the Seahawks lose, this will be a true playoff game!

Unfortunately, the Seahawks are tied and within field-goal range with about 30 seconds left. 

[ZeroTolerance 578]

I don't think the refs could be any more clearly in the bag for Seattle. In the last few minutes:
- phantom running into the kicker call to give Seattle a first down on their game-tying drive
- questionable roughing call with Geno running into Ramsey, then no call for Lockett coming off the sideline with a swing at Ramsey's head
- no call intentional grounding in OT
- no call taunting on the interception to set up the Seattle game-winning drive

[Mike FF Today 596]

Seahawks win in overtime. Lions are out of the playoff but Detroit must Green Bay in order for Seattle to make it.

I've been waiting all day for Sunday Night@!!@#!@#

[weepaws 2,223]

So the Lions are out.  I have Sir Watson on one team going to the win.  

And i picked up and starting the Pack def on two teams.  

One of my teams is a final, I’m sorry to say, that I won the gold.  

Thank you Jesus.  

[easilyscan 510]

I'll be rooting for the Lions.

As should all NFC playoff teams.  Aaron Rodgers tends to choke in big games where the Packers are favored to win.  The Packers could be a dangerous #7 seed with no real expectation or pressure to win.

[Showboat 140]

4th and inches and your 250 pound back is not even on the field and you try a jet sweep - brilliant!

[nobody 1,919]

Another promising season put in jeopardy needlessly risking a 4th and short and failing... as usual.

[nobody 1,919]

Fortunate that the needless risk only cost them 3 points.

[nobody 1,919]

Aidan Hutchinson's dad was wearing a University of Michigan jacket.  Come on Aidan, spring for some Lions gear.

Analytics

[nobody 1,919]

Tirico must be a Lions fan.  That was no where near a fumble by Rodgers on that Hutchinson sack.

[ZeroTolerance 578]

Crosby kicking 5 FGs is the only thing that beats me...so here it comes.

[nobody 1,919]

I liked how he followed up the bad perspective with, "the Packers are going quick as the play clock winds down."  

Play clock was at 2 seconds when they snapped it.  Can't really go much slower.

[nobody 1,919]

Challenge on the Amon Ra catch.  Looked like he rolled over on top of it, but he had enough control to call it a catch in my view.

[nobody 1,919]

Ruled incomplete.  Forces the punt.  Nice work by the GB sideline there.

[nobody 1,919]

It's 21°F in Green Bay right now.  That's like hanging out in a walk in industrial freezer.

[nobody 1,919]

I trust those AWS catch percentages about as much as I trust a fat kid around a piece of cake.

[nobody 1,919]

That Tonyan catch where he jumped up and head-topped the DB... Waller was in the exact same situation last night and let the ball come down to him and got it broken up.

[nobody 1,919]

These receivers need to get some hand warmers to thaw out these ice hands.

[ZeroTolerance 578]

And I'm going to lose in the end from the 0 point games by Josh Allen and Joe Mixon in week 17.

Damn, bro.  Focker is trying to have a career game.

That's not bad for Green Bay evening in January.  Most industrial freezers (and even the one in your kitchen) are much closer to 0°F if not lower.

Just now, nobody said:

21 point lead to start, dude is going to get there easy at this rate.

[nobody 1,919]

Crosby has only kicked 5 FGs in a game 3 times apparently.

Downright balmy out there then.

[nobody 1,919]

Too bad they had a holding on that Jameson TD.  I always enjoy a good flea flicker

[nobody 1,919]

Not a bad play on 3rd and long for the lions just to give themselves a shot at the FG.

[nobody 1,919]

and he knuckles it wide left.  Bummer for Seahawk fans.

[ZeroTolerance 578]

Nice job jumping offsides in an obvious hard count situation, dumbass.

[nobody 1,919]

I think someone touched that football while they had a hand out of bounds.

[nobody 1,919]

Maybe not.  I thought the GB player touched it, but that low angle made it look like he might not have touched it.

[nobody 1,919]

That sideline reporter is a little pot-stirrer.  Talking to LeBeau, "Dan Campbell said his main goal is to keep you out of the playoffs.  How do you respond to that?"

[nobody 1,919]

DAMN.  What a catch by Watson!

[nobody 1,919]

We got a real cracker on our hands here.

[nobody 1,919]

I have to give the Lions credit.  They can tackle.

[nobody 1,919]

What the hell was Rodgers doing on that throw.  Why did he put so much air under it?

[nobody 1,919]

Refs are like, "we have clear instructions from Goodell! GB needs to win this game!"
