Luckiest team ever?
Seattle had NO BUSINESS being in that game let alone winning it. Their defense is good, their offense is garbage. I'm not a GB fan, but I think they'd have been a much better representative in the SB. Russell Wilson's weaknesses were shown today, and then GB decided to let off the gas and try and run out the clock.

The bobbled onside kick, the wounded duck pass on the 2 pt conversion. Just pure luck.

I could see Brady lighting them up.

I am just sick.

Worse loss than to Giants in OT at Lambeau in '07.

And that's saying something.

NE may, assuming they play a game that allows them to get past Indy.

What's the adage? Luck=preparation + opportunity. I guess I was leaning toward GB but I'll sleep better than the Major.

All said, that's why they play the game.

Garbage is garbage. That ending was pure garbage. I'd much rather see the best team win (gimp leg and all) than see the NFL equivalent of the Stanford band game.

Prevent defense on the second to last drive in regulation is where the tide turned. I have NEVER understood why any team plays to not lose than to win. Make them beat you. Sucks all the momentum out of the team and gives it to the other, especially at home. Drives me nuts.

After the Wilson pick with 5 minutes left, I turned off the game and fired up Civ 5.

Oops.

That was it. Stop defending the run despite that being what got them to that point and watch the other team run it down your throats.

So I'm hearing the word "deflate-gate" being thrown around.

Will we live long enough where we see the media stop attaching "-gate" to every controversy or scandal?
