Game Thread: Wildcard Weekend Part 4: Giants @ Packers

[Retroram52]

Green Bay is on to Dallas and if I were Dallas, I'd be doing my homework this week because Rodgers and the Packers are on a roll!

I haven't posted 1 thing about him and when I do its complimentary. Glad he is out though and also was GB's Kryptonite , first loss at Lambeau in playoffs today

Right...and you're not the only Pat's fan posting here...

All the Vegas favs won big this weekend.

Cowboys have opened as 4 pt faves with o/u at 51

No I know that. I actually have respect because he is one tough SOB. Guy hasn't missed a game since he started, gets knocked around and gets right back up. Not a good regular season QB, but dangerous when he gets there. Thanks GB Usually when you knock another team's player or competition, it shows weakness in my eyes

If the Giants won, I was prepared to hear all week how the Cowboys won't win because the Giants beat them twice already.

If the Packers won, I was prepared to hear all week how they won't win because the Packers are playing differently now and the fact that they got pounded at home by Dallas without Dez Bryant means nothing.

Say that to his face, he'd slap the white right off your face

That **** wouldn't do shit. I'd rip his chain off and choke him out.

Basically. All we hear is how GB is on a roll and that Dallas can't hope to stop them.

Meanwhile nobody actually looks at why Dallas smashed them in the first place, and how GB is going to stop the same from happening again.

Theres really only one real way to beat Dallas......STOP the run. If you can do that you can win. I don't know if GB has the personnel to do that.

Bingo people are just to enamored with Rodgers they will find out soon enough

I'm loving the over in that game

Pats fans around SportsHoopla are popping bottles as we speak.

Nah be nice to try and get revenge and rather play NY than Dallas if NE adanvanced, providing GB or Atl was out

 

[Great Dayne]

I have to give credit where credit is due. Mcmuffin made the worst call of the game with the 4th and inches. However, he finally ran the score up and didn't take the foot off the gas. If he would've done this vs the Hawks in the 2015 NFCCG we win by 3+ TD's easy. Also the defense didn't go into soft zone or prevent defense. They stayed aggressive and forced Eli into mistakes.

I still can't believe Rodgers was throwing the ball with 4 minutes with a big lead. IDK when MM has ever done that. Good job coach. Don't just sit on a lead and play not to lose.

Best players on defense was:

Ryan: Coverage was the best I've seen by an MLB in a while
Peppers: Many PD's and pressures
CMIII: The game ending forced fumbled


Offensive Players of the game:

Rodgers: Overcoming the poor game plan, tough defense, no Jordy and terrible refs to score 4 TD's in a cold game is impressive. Especially with the bad start.

Cobb: Hail Mary TD, huge catches on third downs and he's coming off the injury.

Christian Michael: His runs and kick returns looked like he was in fastforward and everyone was stuck in the mud. Glad Ty is ok

SPT's:

Hyde: Great punt returns that changed the field position

Janis: The gunner had two big stops on punts. His speed is elite.

Just watched OBj in presser and I have to take back what I said. He didn't exactly say my bad but he didn't pout

....back to the boat.

 

[Rex Racer]

Thank god the Giants have that HOF QB of theirs at the helm. They might have lost by 26 without drooling Eli

 

[NEhomer]

Eli was sharp as hell to start the game.

Green Bay's defense better buckle their chin straps because they wont be playing the Giants pop gun offense next week.

 

[Rex Racer]

Eli was sharp as hell to start the game.

6 points in the 1st half against a team that gave up just under 400 points this year.

Meh.

 

[NEhomer]

Eli wasn't the problem. The points scored fit a different narrative that you're trying to forward.

He was tossing bullets the first quarter while the party crew kept knocking them to the ground.
