NFCCG: Packers at Falcons Discussion (1 Viewer)

[pricklypete]

Great season for the Packers.  What a run. It was a lot of fun.

Better team won today. Good luck to the Falcons.

Love seeing pathetic Bears fans cheering so hard against Packers.  Has to be such a miserable existence.

Why don't they ever say the Falcons owner's full name?

Aaron Rodgers and Green Bay are on a major run, but that Atlanta offense has so many ways to move the ball.  Seeing what the Falcons did to a very sound Seahawks defensive unit doesn't bode well for one as unreliable as the Packers.  Maybe Rodgers can drag his team to the Super Bowl, but this Falcons offense just seems unlikely to be stopped - at least by the Packers banged-up defense.

Sadly, today's NFC Championship game went about as I expected (and posted above last week).  The Packers ran the table and all, but the Falcons were just too much today.  This Packers fan will be rooting for you to win the whole thing - congratulations to Atlanta and good luck in the Super Bowl!

Yuck.  Are you a 70 or 16 year old female?

Yep, leftover peach schnapps presupposes purposeful peach schnapps.Seriously?

 

[Grigs Allmoon]

Why don't they ever say the Falcons owner's full name?

Because nobody knows his middle name. Even wikipedia only says Arthur M Blank.

 

[sho nuff]

I don't follow GB closely, but seems like the o-line and a running game should be their main concerns going into the off season, no? 

The defense says hi

Oline was one of the best i the league this year (at least in pass pro)

 

[Grigs Allmoon]

Plenty of wimmins at the party, they appreciate cutesie theme drinks. The schnapps are leftover from last year's event ("Carolina Hurricanes"), and obviously haven't been opened since. And, yes, there are both women in their 50s and in their 20s attending. 

My advice... Give it to the ones in their 20's.

 

[belljr]

why do you say that?

As of Wednesday that's where it was going

It's all we have.  We know our team is pathetic.

That happens when you lose.

 

[Master of Past and Present]

Never in my wildest dreams did I think the Falcons would have a good cushion the whole game.

Get Beasley out of there!!

It is but this game is like a little ray of sunshine.

That doesn't mean the fans need to be as well.

 

[AAABatteries]

Empty the bench coach 

 

[Long Ball Larry]

Because nobody knows his middle name. Even wikipedia only says Arthur M Blank.

It's Milhous

 

[Reg Lllama of Brixton]

David Dundas just made another $27

Moneybags

yeah, you are right based on the info I subsequently posted.

 

[flapgreen]

That's funny.  Plenty of mockery coming from the Packers over the years.  Grow some thicker bark.  Goes both ways. 

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

Did I just see Letrouy Guion playing offense?

 

[belljr]

yeah, you are right based on the info I subsequently posted.

I may still be behind but it's around 63%

I'm not a Falcons fan but I saw blowout. My boys who are Falcons fans won money today.

 

[Neil Beaufort Zod]

I feel like this was the Packers' Super Bowl. They gave it all they had and came away with a dramatic win.

Emotionally, they're drained. I think they'll come out flat. Not enough gas left in the tank. Just a hunch.

ATL 41

GB 23

Forgive this bump. I'm not right all that often, so I have to remind myself it happens occasionally.

Not upset at all. 

 

[ShamrockPride]

Teams who win by 21+ in their conference championship are 7-8 in the SB.

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

Well congratulations Falcons.  I'm glad you guys seem to have gotten out of the game without any catastrophic injuries.

 

[Franknbeans]

Why don't they ever say the Falcons owner's full name?

He's no Ha Ha

 

[Deamon]

weird

 

[FUBAR]

Teams who win by 21+ in their conference championship are 7-8 in the SB.

How about teams with starting QBs named Matt?

 

[Dark Matter]

Congrats ATL! Keep it rolling, if you play like you have the past 2 months, you will be tough to beat.

 

[AAABatteries]

I'm still in shock - Super Bowl bound!!!

 

[Franknbeans]

now can we have a real Championship game?

 

[fred_1_15301]

weird

Yup definitely an odd stat.

 

[ShamrockPride]

weird

Just doing my best Anarchy impression of useless stats from the past.

 

[Mario Kart]

Let's be honest, Packers fans. They had no reason being in this game. Somehow they got lucky, real lucky. If I had the bankroll, the smart bet was to take Atlanta. I wasn't sure about the over/under but Atlanta seemed like a easy play today, no?

 

[Franknbeans]

Terry's gotta be pushin' 3 bills

 

[AAABatteries]

Terry's gotta be pushin' 3 bills

He looks enormous 

 

[sho nuff]

Did I just see Letrouy Guion playing offense?

Yes you did

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

I wonder if Matt Bryant will need an I.V. after this game.  That many kick offs could be quite exhausting for a guy his age.

 

[sho nuff]

Good luck going forward...Blank seems like a good owner.  Cool what he is doing with stadium prices and that place looks like it will be awesome

 

[Alex P Keaton]

Good luck in the Super Bowl Falcons!

 

[Ditkaless Wonders]

Yes you did

That sort of sums up the last 6 years.  Long past time to figure this injury thing out.  This is beyond ill fate, this is a statistically significant and undeniable trend.

Anyhow, Atlanta, I hope Julio is at full strength in the Super Bowl.  It must have been difficult today to watch him, knowing that he was hampered by injury.  Maybe in two weeks he can have more of an impact 

 

[Shlon]

This is why I wanted GB at home. Steelers nor Patriots defense will be able to stop the Falcons offense in the Super Bowl. Falcons defense just needs to stop the opposing team from scoring 30.

 

[Mister CIA]

These Falcons remind me of early 90's Cowboys, just a little. Too, they can go from good to great, quickly.

 

[gump]

I may still be behind but it's around 63%

So am I right that the pubilc drove the line down from 5.5 or 5 to 4.5, then the big money pounced to push it back to 6?

 

[metoo]

Julio's been criticized for not being aggressive or vocal enough.  Any other receiver but him you have a point probably.

I get to yell at my boss? It's either one or the other.

All receivers want the ball. I remember this board talking about Andre Johnson was a team guy. End of his career and not getting the ball he was a whiner.

I'm sure this is not the first time with Julio but because it doesn't fit the narrative this is the first time we see it. ALL RECEIVERS WANT THE BALL.

 

[sho nuff]

Need some of those Alernative facts to say GB really won.

 

[FUBAR]

ALL RECEIVERS WANT THE BALL.

RBs and TEs don't?
