One of those Packer FGs and who knows how the dynamic of this game ends up late when a FG wins it. Or even the missed XP.

No, you just stop them and you win.

Both Panthers and Packers had the ball last and lost.

The missed XP really hurt cause it would have made it a 12 point lead. Bears don't go for 2 and are still down by 5. Then Packers only need a FG to win or tie at the end.

Panthers botched their final drive far worse, Packers did ok to get into territory to win and then couldn't finish. But even had the Packers scored the TD the Bears were getting the Hail Satan to win, so that would have been fun to see. But three more games for it to appear, can't wait to see what it is.

Yeah its time for a change in Wisconsin, and Im a Lafleur fan.

With Hefley very likely getting poached by another team and the horrendous playoff record of ML and several of his assistants, its time to start that part of the orginization on a re-set.

I do wonder if Harbaugh was waiting the weekend to see what else might come available...and specifically in Green Bay. It would be negligent for new CEO Ed Policy not to collude with GM Gutekunst (who very much may be canned as well) and make that call to Harbaugh to gauge interest...and that means today.

Only 1 year left on both guys deals.....cannot believe they would run it back one more time with both in lame duck status territory.

Pretty attractive team for a coach to take over though, no matter who it is.

Actually they both shot themselves in the head, but one had the healing powers of the Prince of Darkness and one did not.

I have Bills, Eagles, Patriots straight up today. Chargers cover 3.5. Bills and Jags over 51.5, Eagles and Niners under 46.5, and Patriots vs Chargers under 45.5.

I had Panthers covering 10.5 yesterday and the over. Got the Green Bay and Chicago side wrong, had over 44.5 on that one

Trevor Lawrence has every single thing you want in a QB except the one that matters more than any other...his decision making is suspect at best.

He's clearly short, but it'd be peak lolz for the Bills to get screwed here via a bad spot and a virtual measurement.

I don't think that's conclusive enough to overturn. It probably touched, but I can't say for sure it did.

Overturn it is. I think it's actually pretty clear his shin hits and the ball is at the 8.

Ah okay from the angle in front you can clearly see the shin down and even a bit of grass being kicked up in the air. Fair enough.

I hate how often they "go to commercials" during the review process. Much of the time we don't get proper coverage, and the decision is made mid commercial.

I think the Jags should have taken the Field goal there. First half pace of play is slower, and it's a chance to get a first and goal vs 1.5 yards to a T.D.

Don't hate going for it by the Jags, but a designed Lawrence run is not a good play call. Huge response for the Bills, but Josh is taking a lot of punishment in this one.

It looks like Allen might have to sacrifice every last bit of his body of he is going to take advantage of a playoffs with no Mahomes, Jackson, or Burrow to overcome.
