NFC Championship: Falcons vs. Packers (Discussion and Game Thread)
- Thread starter Conigliaro's Potential

To be fair, the fact that GB didn't score both of those times weren't due to flukes. The kick is likely to be made most of the time, but the fumble wasn't some accident, it was taken away. Maybe it should be 17-6, but you can't assume all the points.
Runner used his off arm to push a defender rather than use 2 hands with 4 defenders on him. That's a bad fumble.
Such a stupid play call in that spot. Green Bay hasn't stopped their offense yet, no need to run a really difficult to execute play in which things can go wrong very easily.
Oh sure, but it wasn't like it was rain, or he hit it out with his own knee. One player did a bad thing, one did a good thing, but luck had nothing to do with it. Plus, he wasn't getting into the end zone in any case, so you can't assume 7 points.
One of the weirdest sacks I've ever seen - after all those big hits, that's the one which takes Rodgers down.
Falcons will rush three and drop eight on third down - they always do this on third and very long. Give up a 15-yard play as long as they need 20 for the first down.
