Packers - Bucs NFC Championship game thread

[Tom McAndrew]

Due to my schedule, I'm setting this up now.

Rodgers vs. Brady

Watching a freezing cold playoff game at Lambeau brings back a lot of memories.

Hopefully, it will be a close and competitive game.

Bucs.

Rodgers.

Lambeau.

 

[Tom McAndrew]

Bucs.

Rodgers.

Lambeau.

much appreciated. Bucs and Rodgers were the result of auto-corrects that I didn't even notice. Lambeau was a hybrid, in that auto-correct changed it to Lambda. I saw that and thought I corrected it but I guess auto-correct modified it again after I changed it. smh

All good.

I wonder if Brady misses making out with Robert Kraft?

 

[sluggo72]

Go Bucs!

 

[sluggo72]

Pretty nice drive

 

[Cincinnati Kid]

Go Bucs!

Brady making it look easy!

 

[sluggo72]

That’s what happens when you let them off the 3-15 hook

 

[psrurock]

Great catch Godwin!

 

[katchthis]

Wtf drops an easy one . Then makes the improbable catch .

 

[LionJim]

Yes, but that was one superb throw. Wow factor of 99.875.

 

[LionJim]

Hell of a run.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

That 2nd Qtr Scoring Stat for Packers is impressive. Demonstrates how good an OC Hackett is in regards to adjusting to what he sees defense doing in the 1st Qtr and using adjustments in his playbook to capitalize on it.

The Russian judge scored it 89.875

 

[AWS1022]

Great catch by Godwin and great run by Fournette...two very impressive plays on one drive.

 

[OhioLion]

I could’ve sworn the type of throw and catch from Brady to Godwin was referred to - by the CFB analysts - as a noodle-arm-punt-throw-50/50-ball when done while participants were wearing Blue and White.

OL

Onlyst problem with that is, Hackett doesn’t call the plays. The HC does

 

[McCloudersportLion]

Tom frickin Brady will be playing until he's eighty 👴

 

[LionJim]

A+ DB play there.

 

[LionJim]

Very high quality playing on both sides. Good game.

 

[razpsu]

What a coaching blunder. Wow

 

[AWS1022]

What a coaching blunder. Wow

What are you referring to?

 

[Meats Lab]

Tom frickin Brady will be playing until he's eighty 👴

The best ever.

 

[HazletonLion]

Donovan Smith giving TB time and mauling people on runs.

 

[razpsu]

What are you referring to?

Letting the receiver get behind you with no time left at halftime.

 

[AWS1022]

Letting the receiver get behind you with no time left at halftime.

Isn’t that on the DB?

 

[razpsu]

Isn’t that on the DB?

No. Why would you play man to man when Tampa sends 3 in the end zone . Troy aikman is beside himself with disbelief

 

[Meats Lab]

No. Why would you play man to man when Tampa sends 3 in the end zone . Troy aikman is beside himself with disbelief

Aikman and Buck are absolutely awful.

 

[LionJim]

Shit, I missed it.

 

[razpsu]

Terry Bradshaw is sayjng how was that not zone coverage for the Hail Mary. Miller is 5-9 and was all by himself.

 

[CJFisJoePaII]

No. Why would you play man to man when Tampa sends 3 in the end zone . Troy aikman is beside himself with disbelief

Wrong, that is completely on the DB - no way you let the receiver behind you (let alone 5 yards behind you in EZ) with only 8 seconds on clock. Unconscionable defense by the DB there - absurdly bad.

The DB let him so far behind him he couldn't even make a play on the ball ! Just horrendously bad football by that DB.

 

[Nittany Security2]

Shit, I missed it.

Just picture Tom Brady throwing a TD to a wide open receiver

 

[AWS1022]

No. Why would you play man to man when Tampa sends 3 in the end zone . Troy aikman is beside himself with disbelief

Well, if the DB wouldn’t have gotten burnt like toast, it would have been the right call.

 

[razpsu]

It was the wrong call. Zone defense should have been called with 2 safeties covering the end zone on each side.
Aikman said it Bradshaw said it Long was in disbelief.

This game is over!

Was that the same DB that got beat badly on Tampa’s 1st TD? (He got beat badly deep there too).

 

[psu00]

Did someone drug the Green Bay defensive backs? They look like they have no idea what they are doing. They are giving up very easy TDS.

 

[AWS1022]

This game is over!

Then they give up the sideline pass which sets them up for a FG and the coach gets criticized for playing a zone.

 

[WDLion]

Well, if the DB wouldn’t have gotten burnt like toast, it would have been the right call.

Agree. If that is the fault of playing man defense, nobody would ever play man defense. Wasn't a Hail Mary either.
