Divisional Round- Green Bay @ Dallas Thread (2 Viewers)

[flapgreen]

Is that really Kanye laying down on the field? 

 

[Cowboysfan8]

Man....I'm an Eagles fan.  I've only ever seen him love the Cowboys. 

You've never heard him call a Pack game apparently. Idk how he does it with a throat full of Aaron all game...

 

[Stompin' Tom Connors]

This is the divisional match up I had hoped to see as the playoffs started, and by far the most compelling of the weekend.

Going to be a high scoring affair, with the need for either D to step up and force turnovers and get the opposing offence to 3rd and longs and 4th and outs.

While some may say it can take away momentum, home field and an extra week off to prepare is the best of advantages. Sean Lee and company need to shut down the run and short screens/dumps. While it focuses Green Bay on its most potent ability -- the air attack -- it still makes a team more one-dimensional. 

Speaking of momentum, Green Bay and Rodgers in particular have all of it. They have a flexible and intelligent offensive attack with a killer audible game. GB D needs to account for Zeke in all facets of the game, which may leave them open for underneath routes and seams. The best thing they could do is get consistent and violent pressure on Prescott, and force the rookie to look like a rookie (not easy, but possible).

Devoting full attention span to this game, going to be a great one to watch.

My forecast: DAL 30 GB 27

 

[Bankerguy]

Can stand Aikman too. Tries so hard to be unbiased about Dallas.....he just ends up annoying both fan bases.

Sell out to stop Zeke and make Prescott beat you. 

DAL D is a bit underrated as they've seemed to just be able to get it done...but I think with Rodgers playing the way he is....their O will have to win the TOP and dictate how long Rodgers is on the field.

Just play action roll him out and have him pick and choose where to go

 

[BobbyLayne]

I'm just hoping for one (1) competitive playoff game through the 4th quarter

through six games the average score has been 31.8 - 13.3 (191-80) with every game decided by 13 or more

 

[Thunderlips]

That's fine....make him beat you. 

 

[ffldrew]

Heck of a collision

 

[ShamrockPride]

whenever you get to it mods, no rush

we realize you might be busy insulting customers in political threads

Think you meant it here? And depinning the other too. Felt it was an important post. 

 

[strykerpks]

Anybody in the stands that can play corner for GB?

What was Burnett doing?  Line up to hit the WR.  IfGunterdoesnt tip it...it ends up a TD because he took a terrible angle and ends up taking out his own guy.

I put it where I wanted it, no need to clutter up the active thread

Unpin the yesterday, pin todays

 

[sho nuff]

FGs are fine

 

[Gachi]

Dammit. I've declared my hate of the Cowboys on social media already.

Gonna be a long day 

 

[BobbyLayne]

It's ridiculous how well Rodgers is playing the last two months

Again

 

[ShamrockPride]

Classic Rodgers.

 

[BobbyLayne]

12 men on the field

Rodgers catches teams doing that all the time

 

[BobbyLayne]

 

and they still need a timeout

 

[Ilov80s]

He's the best. Carrying an average at best offense.

 

[Yankee23Fan]

I would be ok with a Dallas loss here. 

 

[BobbyLayne]

nice vision there by Montgomery

he's really improved as the year went on

 

[ShamrockPride]

Classic Rodgers.

 

[msommer]

"If you're running game is wearing 88"

He'll gash you for 15 yards

 

[sho nuff]

Richard Rodgers caught it...holy crap.  

 

[Osaurus]

Dayummmmm 

 

[ffldrew]

nice reachback for that ball and pull it in

 

[BobbyLayne]

"free play"

I swear they blow those dead for every other team but Rodgers gets a chance to run it

he's good - he's real good

 

[Pipes]

That Aaron Rodgers kid is pretty good.

 

[Interseptopus]

lol he got burned bad

 

[Dedfin]

Aaron Rodger is the absolute KING of the "free play".

 

[Milkman]

That's a better play than Matt Ryan has made all year. Rodgers has done it on a weekly basis. 

 

[msommer]

Two free plays in one drive. Not bad

 

[Gopher State]

Way to easy for Rogers and company

 

[Interseptopus]

"free play"

I sweat they blow those dead for every other team but Rodgers gets a chance to run it

he's good - he's real good

watching Detroit play they get that called dead a lot

That's the first one they've had in a while.  They've been blowing them dead on the Pack too.

They absolutely blow them dead everywhere else. I notice it all the time. Stafford had one blown dead last weekend.

 

[ROCKET]

There's one for the good guys, looking forward to several more

 

[Milkman]

Way to easy for Rogers and company

He got away with one throw to Cobb. Could have been a pick 6 easy.

When do they blow that type dead where there is no contact ...the OL doesn't  move...and the guy tries to get back?

 

[strykerpks]

DE made no contact and tried to get back. They'll never blow that dead

 

[Pipes]

They absolutely blow them dead everywhere else. I notice it all the time. Stafford had one blown dead last weekend.

If the offensive line moves afterwards  they always get blown dead...even for the Packers.  Packers oline held their ground so no whistle.

 

[NutterButter]

Correct answer

 

[Pipes]

Not with AR12

 

[ShamrockPride]

The refs/league is going to try and push the Cowboys through this one, correct? Seems the more profitable outcome.

 

[BobbyLayne]

He got away with one throw to Cobb. Could have been a pick 6 easy. 

Yeah his release is so quick, same thing with Brady

That was a pick six for at least 28 starting QBs

 

[modogg]

Packers secondary is so dreadful (i know injuries so certainly a legit excuse)

 

[ShamrockPride]

"Did not participate" I like the phrasing.

 

[NutterButter]

Not sure I've ever seen that called
