In man to man they shut down the cards but in zone it was like swiss Cheese.
We're all very happy that you comprehended what Collingsworth said on the broadcast...you're starting to catch on...you know, 2 ears one mouth...you should take that info to heart and STFU...you're bringing down the collective intelligence of the board

That was nuts. Not very good play by either team for nearly the whole time, but it turned out to be a great finish. I picked Arizona to win but don't really feel like I got it right.

Things that Arizona did wrong tonight and still won:

- Idiotic hands to face on pick 6 that would have made it 14-0
- INT on first and goal with no pressure where Palmer throws a duck into coverage
- Not running on 2nd down right around 2 minute warning (Packers gained 45 extra seconds)
- Coverage breakdown on 4th and 20 from 5 yard line
- Peterson not knocking Hail Mary down

Things Packers/Rodgers did wrong that helped cost team game:

- Terrible throw on INT on first and 10 in 3rd quarter
- Missing Jones wide open in endzone
- Shields with 2 dropped INTs on terrible Palmer throws
- 1 hopping Jones on 4th and 5

The Packers needed to play a perfect game or get super lucky to win this game. They got the latter but it wasn't enough.

They should change the OT rules to allow the other team a chance to tie.

Yep. I can understand sudden death in a sport like hockey, where both teams have an equal opportunity to score, but this isn't right. I realize it's not all coin flip because AZ did score the TD, but GB should have an opportunity to reciprocate.

Great game, but I have to say, I'm not a fan of this overtime format. Seems to put an awful lot of weight on winning a coin flip.

I think both teams should get an offensive possession in OT and then go to sudden death if needed. But Zona had only scored 2 TDs in idk how many possessions... several. The Pack deserved to lose this one.

I don't think either team deserved to lose but it was inevitable one team had to.

I'll take your word for it. Palmer was the Pack's D backfields best man most of the game, though.


Oh and everyone finds you really fucking annoying, so it would be great if next year you could take your act to your team board and not clutter up the general NFL board playoff game threads with it. Thanks.

Green Bay had their chance to get the ball back and failed. The rules worked well for years. Defense is just as important as offense.
