(Non-Patriots) Divisional Round Discussion and Game Thread
- Thread starter Conigliaro's Potential
- Start date
So whoever was talking about buying a ring for the Over at 52 is being shown some appreciation at the moment.
I leave to go to dinner, and this is what I come back to? Which one of you is responsible for letting that lead evaporate?
Dak Prescott is the real fucking deal folks, and anyone that hasn't bought in yet just hasn't been paying attention. But man, that offensive line is scary awesome. They just blow people up all over the field. Going and grabbing Zeke with the 4 pick was a stroke of genius. When the whole NFL is going away from drafting running backs high, Dallas realized it played right into their strength, and made the team that much better. When they get rolling, they are as good offensively as anyone.
I don't think the "stop the top option" applies to Rodgers using six different receivers. Pats pass defense also has not been challenged all year, Im much more confident the run defense is good than the pass defense.
That said, everyone left in the NFC is very good on offense and not very good on defense, I don't have a strong preference.

Only teams in NFL history to come back down 15 entering the fourth in playoff history are the 1972 Cowboys, 2002 49ers. We might get another to add to this list, fantastic game.
Honestly, though, there's so much time left, I worry from Dallas' perspective you can just dink and dunk on Dallas, just waste enough clock to get three from Crosby. If I'm Marinelli, try to counter with zone and delayed blitzes, they've been super effective all day, no reason to think they won't otherwise.
