Post Game: THE PACKERS ARE PLAYOFF BOUND

@YoHoChecko I believe you were looking for this play during the GDT chatter.

It really doesn't help me. The view from the offensive backfield looks like he keeps it off the ground and against his facemask. The view from the defensive backfield looks like it hits the ground.

I think the telling moment is obscured by the Packer defender’s leg in the offensive backfield view.

Right after this moment. This is just before Quay’s leg obscures the view.

My Mom's whole family is from Dallas, so the cousin group text is already poppin' off.

My aunt will be up here visiting next weekend, so we'll be in the same room for the game.

So not only do I hate Dallas always, but I will HEAR about this if we lose.

The "it's been a great season but we're playing with house money" vibe is gone for me due to match-up.

But also, Dallas has legit been insanely good at home this year. Playing them in Jerry's World, even though we always win there, is a tough draw. It really is. Not saying we can't win. But I could see basically any outcome as possible here.

I cannot understand the ruling on this 1?

[APB]

Cowboys open as 7 pt favorites.

If I were a gambler, I’d take the Packers and the points. Dallas should be favored but 7 is too much in my mind.

[bud fox]

Would've preferred Lions but if 2ndary plays like they did today and no limit mistakes on off we can keep rolling.

Fun fact, you only need one view of the ball hitting the ground to confirm that it did

Should be fun for you.

No more "house money" BS though. My expectations are completely different than weeks ago. Jordon Love is playing as good or better than any QB in the NFL right now. The Packers just dominated a bears team that had been playing fairly good football. The cowboys just beat a team that has lost 8 in a row. Hopefully the cowboys think they are as superior as the media seems to think over the packers right now.

Was it 13 years ago that the Packers beat the bears in the final game of the regular season to secure the final wildcard spot and then went on to win the whole $%@# thing? With Love playing this well, noone is telling me it can't happen again

Don’t ruin the week. I’d only allow myself to ponder the conversations following a Packer victory.

The Cowboys have struggled to beat good teams this year, and they are beatable, certainly.

Jordan Love over the past 7-8 games has been a top-5 QB in the league, yes.

The issue I have with having real expectations for this team is trusting the defense. I don't trust the defense. Even if they play well against the Vikings and Bears--teams we know very very well; teams with vast deficiencies...

The Packers could certainly go on a 4-game epic Love-driven Super Bowl run and I'd be overjoyed. But the high-variance of our defensive performances makes the odds incredibly long.

My ideal scenario is scoring 30+ points in every game and allowing 24+ in every game so we can win a Super Bowl and still rid ourselves of Barry's vast inability to elevate the defensive performance with any sort of consistency. He runs the worst version of this brand/scheme of defense. I can't stick with it.

Watch LT Rasheed Walker on this play. Now THAT’S what I wanna see from an O-lineman!!

Agreed

The bar just got raised much higher for me however is basically is what I am saying. From here on out I won't be surprised if they win in any game.

MLF is one fired up hombre!

[Drj820]

4:30 Sunday. Dallas. Gotta love it.

[Cdragon]

Great win but not a perfect win. Gives them plenty of stuff to work on to get better. Got to go through everybody so might as well start with blowing Dallas out of the water.

[go pak go]

I love how we closed the game out with the ball and never gave it back

Yeah, that was awesome.

The pad level during the 4 minute offense was excellent.

Poor Mike McCarthy is gonna have to watch how good our pad level is all week going into the Wildcard round

[YoHoChecko]

Packers have made the playoffs 4 out of 5 years under MLF

One of the reasons I was SO bummed they dropped the game to the Lions last year was because I get jealous when I hear all the "Tomlin has never had a losing season" talk and MLF is one game away from that pace through five years
