Not very often my blood gets boiling watching a sporting event any longer...but that last minute of the GB game had me screaming. Im not even mad at Flynn...hes a rookie but there were enough vets ( yes Driver i am looking at you) to make sure the kid hurried it up. I understand its 4th and 1, but with 22 seconds left, you QB sneak it, get up and re-set and spike the ball, which allows you to have at least one if not two throws into the end zone. Frustrating as hell.
Once again I think the Packers D proves how really good and deep they are. I figured it was game over when Nick Collins went down, but they played OK even after that. Holding the Pats offense to 24 is a feat unto itself these days. Holding Brady to well under 150 yards passing is even more impressive.
Oh well....if they can win out they should still make the post season, though one has to wonder if the Giants wont be totally ready to destroy someone next Sunday. Not sure of the tie-break if Tampa wins out as well though as both teams are 6-4 in the conference...and i am not sure they have had enough common opponents for that to come into play. None of that matters though if Rodgers doesnt make it back next week.
