On that Michael Floyd TD, the refs missed an OPI. One of the Zona WRs were blocking a GB Defensive Back 10 yards off the line of scrimmage

It should be both teams at least get a offensive possession. They'll probably change the rules in a few years.

I like that a TD ends it in overtime. They had to go 80 yards to score. We don't need stupid college rules where 40 points are scored in OT. If GB doesn't like it, they should play some D next time.
 

Great Dayne

I was right even if you believe I was wrong

SHHHH the refs had no part in helping AZ win the game.

NBC’s Packers-Cardinals Playoff Game Sets Divisional Ratings Record

Last night’s overtime NFC Divisional Playoff game between The Green Bay Packers and Arizona Cardinals has posted an 18.8/33 household rating to rank as the highest-rated Saturday primetime Divisional game ever, according to Fast National data from Nielsen. In viewers, the telecast averaged 33.7 million, making it the second-most watched Saturday primetime Divisional ever, after the 34.2 million viewers for Broncos-Patriots game on CBS January 14, 2012.

The household rating and viewership for the Packers-Cardinals game are up 9% over last year’s primetime Saturday NFC Divisional Playoff (17.2/29 and 31.0 million viewers for Panthers-Seahawks on FOX). The NFL introduced primetime Saturday Divisional Playoff games in the 2001 season.

Viewership peaked at 38.7 million (21.8/40 rating) for the game’s conclusion from 11:15-11:41pm ET. The overtime bumped Saturday Night Live to a later start.

Regardless of the rules, that was a great, great game...

Yes... for fans was a great game to watch, even coming out on the losing end I still think it was a great game.

Referees may have missed some calls... but I prefer a game with less flags than a game that is over officiated. Packers had their chances to win the game and only themselves to blame. Cards made more plays late in the game to win it.

Congrats to Cards and good luck moving forward in the playoffs!
