I think my favorite part was Reid finally calling a timeout after the Pats kneel down.

Hope that Pick-Six that got called back doesn't come back to bite the Cards-could have been the death blow otherwise. But good job holding them to three points.

7-6 at the half-Arizona's offense hasn't been on the field much. Have to think the Cobb injury can only help the Cards.

Seriously? I mean, really?

How does anyone rule that a catch and even if you call it a catch, how do you say he wasn't touched on the way to the ground and let him run 30 yards?

Holy crap that was a terrible call.

Did the Seahawks break the Cards? Will Arians say they weren't trying again?

Tweak 3 plays in this game, and this isn't even close. (INT return, crack back block, INT in end zone)

I'm not saying you take those plays away or that the Packers aren't deserving leaders right now, but I don't think the Cardinals are broke by any stretch.

Holy crap. 2 missed penalties, Cards have the ball. I'm guessing the Packers take their TO right away. You do that and it's 2 plays to the 2 minute warning. Figure another 45 seconds before Aaron gets the ball back. If the Cardinals hit the FG (I'm assuming they will not get a first down), Rodgers will have 1:15 left. Obviously, a first down and the game is over.

well, you just gave Rodgers another 40 seconds to play with. If you miss the FG, you may have cost yourself the game in regulation. You hit the FG, you may have ensured OT. That was just terrible.

I get going for the win but when they have no timeouts left and are seriously missing their weapons you run every second off that clock that you can.

Haven't watched the entire game, but Carson Palmer has not looked sharp at all. If you want to be aggressive and play to win, I get that. But with a QB who has been off as much as Palmer has, I don't see how you can trust his arm like that. Just take the 3 free points and let your defense keep GB out of the end zone for another minute to close this thing.

1:50 to get 86 yards is a major difference from 1:10 to go 86 yards.

Exactly. It makes more sense to do something like that in college IMHO. Teams can drive up the field in 40 seconds due to the clock stopping every first down. The entire field opens up. With an above average defense in the NFL? You will gladly give a team 1:15 and 80 yards for a TD to tie it up. You'll take it all day, every day.

Looks like it is going to work out for them.

Yes, that was pass interference, but it needs to be a complete mugging to get called in that situation.

That should have been PI. I think on 3rd down the previous series it could have been PI. Having said that, I think the Fitzgerald play should have been PI too. he cut him off and that isn't allowed. I'm tired of hearing how it wasn't catchable, with the height of Larry and a clear run at that ball, it would have been a possible to catch the ball.

The refs have not had a good fourth quarter here.

I just don't see it. I think the refs have been pretty poor for both teams tonight. I don't think the Packers are the only ones who have been screwed.

I just don't get rushing that many guys there. If you have enough guys in the endzone in the proper place it's easy to defend a Hail Mary. That just seems like another really bad idea and bad coaching

And again, the guys who are in the end zone are way too deep. What part of coaching this is difficult?

I can't imagine the refs would overturn that play on that evidence.

Neither did I. Even when they say it was "punched out" I still don't see it hitting the ground, just moving to a different spot where he grabs it.

When he rolls it looks like his arm is under it, but no real good angle so far to tell.

That was one of the dumbest cases of clock management you will ever see.


This has been one of the most bizarre playoffs I have ever seen. Seattle, Pitt and GB should all be home right now. They are only alive due to the idiocy of the teams they played.

Simply shocking.
