  LMFAO, I didn't notice that.

  Gruden's offense getting handled by the SD defense!
• Mulva

  

  Dalton is so terrible.
• Heretic

  

  Dalton might be turning into the Tony Romo of the AFC. He put up some strong numbers this year, but you just know he's going to implode at the worst possible times.
  
  Looks like since the team won despite him trying to lose it last week that he's going to make damn sure they can't overcome his fuckery today!

  Hochuli reffing the GB game in the freezing ass cold, just seems appropriate.
• Mulva

  

  How was that not pass interference?
• mhs95_06

  Crabtree has a legit beef on interference in the EZ.
• mhs95_06

  rogers experiences the hazard of his loose grip!
• mhs95_06

  The team with the best QB has won each of the first 3 games, and the best QB in this one got a TD while the other had to settle for two FGs!

  If Green Bay wins I hope it finally leads to an end of the bullshit rule of division winners automatically hosting a playoff game.

  Not sure I understand....
  
  I get not liking the rule but if Seattle over NO a few years back didn't do it, not sure how this would

  Stronger chance than if san fran wins.

  Don't see it happening real soon.
  
  Gotta keep winning the division important.

  You can allow division winners into the playoffs automatically without having an 8 win team host a 12 win team. It's very doable.

  What if the 8 win team won head to head against the 12 win team?
• Ironman92

  

  If SF wins.....since the start of last year's playoffs the road teams are 7-7

  As an offensive linemen (or any position) are you allowed to pull a defender off your ball carrier in the pocket, or is that holding?
• Ironman92

  Absolutely.....he was wrapped and the lineman that got toasted would not let go of the guy's jersey that had Rodgers. No clue how you miss that. They may decide it.

  I don't know but you can't hold a guy's jersey like that 50 yards or 5 inches away.....why would you be allowed once you have a hold of him?
• Ironman92

  

  Lol
  
  Leap fail

  I had to change my post, because now I am not 100% sure if there is some little rule that allows that.

  Not relevant at all.
  
  Miami beat San Diego head to head. Strangely enough, 16 weeks trumps one game, and San Diego is still in the playoffs.
• like_that

  

  There is a lot of time left, but this is how the Packers won the SB last time around. They hobbled into the playoffs (beating the Bears in week 17 to get in), and they went along with Rodgers' hot hand to win the SB.
