Pretty darn entertaining though

That can't all make for an exciting game? My favourite game ever played was the 2007 Fiesta Bowl. That game was a #### show and remains the most exciting sporting event I think I've ever watched having no rooting interest going in.

Sure. Which is why we watch. But having commentators blow it into something more than it is, is silly.

Palmer should've never thrown the INT mid 4q in the end zone, and this game would've been done then. It then turned into who wanted to lose the game more with mistake after mistake.

Go Seattle. I'd love a trip to Phoenix next weekend.

I don't know if it has ever been suggested, but everyone seems to elect to defer when they win the opening coin toss like it is an advantage. Make it so if you elect to receive in the second half, then the other team gets the ball for the start of the game and start of OT. That way maybe Packers for 2 at the end of regulation knowing they aren't getting the ball to start OT. Puts more weight on the opening coin toss, and takes the OT coin toss out of the game.

in the playoffs they should play a full 15 minute OT.

When was the last time where there was a playoffs where the forst six games featured three equally absurd, insane finishes, all of which were totally different?

Understatement of the year. Either of the Panthers or Hawks will destroy them. Book it.

Watching the Rodgers Hail Mary several times now, it's obviously better than the Detroit one even with a shorter throw. And Arizona doesn't mess around, they send 7 guys and force an amazing throw, even still they get a 2 on 1 against Janis. Rodgers arm talent is probably the best ever, not sure many guys ever can make that throw.

Seattle lesser of two evils this morning, hopefully they pull this out in unimpressive fashion

[GirlySports]

woooow

[CorsiHockeyLeague]

Er... Well then.

Hmm.

[CorsiHockeyLeague]

Ohhh boy... Only one side showed up to this one.

[GirlySports]

wooooooooow

i guess Carolina feels disrespected!

[corporatejay]

Hahah. Might be a long day

[Senator Clay Davis]

Seattle I think has 4 playoff wins when down 9 or more points under Carroll. Maybe got em right where they want them.

[CorsiHockeyLeague]

Lockett just... Fell down on the return. Apparently the field is pretty bad.

And Wilson just stumbled on that third down as well.

[Senator Clay Davis]

Field is unsuitable for playoff football. Disgraceful.

[ResAlien]

Carolina doesn't seem to be having any issues with the field so far.

[CorsiHockeyLeague]

They knew what they were getting into. If you practice in a mudhole, you can play in a mudhole. Seattle is still trying to figure out which shoes to wear.
