thxfrthmmrs Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Yep, this one is a lot worse than the one they missed in 1999. Was hoping Seattle gets sent home early, but now it gives them another week to get healthy. I think they now the team to beat in NFC IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 The 3 games have been pretty damn boring but two unbelievable endings. That last kick seemed to be more on the holder than the kicker but no one will care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan99 Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 Dear god Rodney Harrison is a moron. He just said the difference in the game was that Russell Wilson was able to make the big plays and Bridgewater wasn't. Wilson made one good play the whole game basically and Bridgewater marched his team down for a 27 yard field goal attempt which NFL kickers make well over 95% of the time.

That is a 27 yard field goal that he hooked incredibly badly and he made an earlier kick with the laces in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw something on Twitter that the ball seemed to be tilted to the left too, but yeah, you are right. He missed it so badly, it wasn't even close.

LittleHurt05 Posted January 10, 2016 Author Share Posted January 10, 2016 As soon as the Packers get eliminated (maybe not today), I expect an announcement about an Aaron Rodgers injury and surgery, post Stanley Cup style. Dude does not look right. I know his line sucks, but it hasn't bothered him that much in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 http://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/11/nfl-tv-rat...f-local-markets Despite Donald Trump calling the NFL "soft" and the movie Concussion, not going anywhere soon...pretty incredible set of ratings facts and figures for the NFL broadcasts. PS: There was a good idea about MLB moving at least one of their weekend World Series or Championship Series games to that 4 p.m. EST start, especially on a Sunday.

cabiness42 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Also, Mike Carey is flat out wrong about that hit not being a penalty (least surprising news ever). NFL rulebook provides that: It is a foul if a runner or tackler initiates forcible contact by delivering a blow with the top/crown of his helmet against an opponent when both players are clearly outside the tackle box (an area extending from tackle to tackle and from three yards beyond the line of scrimmage to the offensive team’s end line). Incidental contact by the helmet of a runner or tackler against an opponent shall not be a foul. NFL needs to adopt the college rule on hits with/to the head. Get rid of the disclaimer about incidental contact. Also make it reviewable. It sucks that they can replay review the fumble but not the illegal hit that caused it.
