Packers/Lions game was a fun one to watch this weekend. You could really tell that Green Bay was holding back and more was expected. Bummer that the Lions couldn't get in the game more, they had a lot of opportunities to come back. Suh really needs to calm down and let out his frustration is better ways than to step on people... Stafford needed to calm down, getting more throws in than Rodgers does not prove anything other than you're just throwing it away. If the Lions slowed it down a bit and kept Stafford focused on throwing accurately, the Lions might have had a better chance. I was hoping for a gridlocked game, it really kinda wasn't, Green Bay stepped up the offensive line in the fourth quarter to drag the clock down. I think Stafford though that he was going to pull off a last minute win, but you can't do that with the Packers, the defense may not be #2 in the league, but the defense can be a #1 offense when it's needed.

Kaepernick goes entire season without throwing a TD during the 4th quarter
8 full seasons into his career, Browns OT Joe Thomas has still never missed a single snap: now at 8,196.
The Seahawks defense have only allowed 39 points in the past six weeks. The next closest NFC Playoff team is Carolina, who have allowed 93 points over that span.
The Packers have gotten every possible seed over the past 6 years:
2009 - 5th seed
2010 - 6th seed
2011 - 1st seed
2012 - 3rd seed
2013 - 4th seed
2014 - 2nd seed
Andrew Luck has become only the 8th QB in NFL history to throw for 40 or more TDs in a single season.
Only two quarterbacks have done this at a younger age, too. Matt Stafford threw 41 touchdowns in 2011 at the age of 23. Dan Marino did did it twice, throwing 48 TDs in 1984 (a record that stood for 20 years) when he was just 23, and then 44 in 1986 when he was 25.
.....Just imagine if Marino were playing in today's NFL.

That one's not true. Don't trust much that comes out of the media that covers the Redskins. They like drama and if there isn't any, they'll create some.Quote:

Because the ATL defense is horrific. Rex has the defensive pedigree to get that back on track.

Suh suspension overturned. He will be playing against the cowboys sans 70k.
that's what I was thinking. he did go to 2 AFC Championships with decent QB play and M@ Ryan is 10x the QB Sanchize ever hoped he could be.Quote:

it would be nice to have a HC(of any sport) in this town with some attitude. mother of gawd the shit talking that would come from the match up with the Aint's(who's fans seem to have dissappeared) would be glorious. :lol:
