Or that.

McCarthy sucks.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Hahahahahahaah, way to go Mike!

 

[Stitch01]

Hate just ramming it in there twice. Spread it out with your mobile quarterback at least onceZ

 

[Ale Xander]

Landon Collins is really good.

Nick Saban is good at developing football
players

Inevitable Giants score and Ale Xander jinx

Haha

 

[PC Drunken Friar]

What a throw

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

That might cost McCarthy his job if they lose this game.

Is everyone finally realizing how terrible this guy is?

 

[jsinger121]

Great move McCarthy

 

[redsoxcentury]

What was the urgency that required going for it there?

McCarthy being a bad head coach?

 

[soxhop411]

McCarthy should be fired if they don't win

 

[heavyde050]

Great throw by Eli.

How did that guy get so open?

 

[kartvelo]

That's what you get for poor choices.

 

[Marciano490]

Haha Packers.

 

[dcmissle]

Brady would have snuck that for the 1st down 98 times out of 100.

Yes

 

[P'tucket rhymes with...]

...and right back in it. Look at it this way, Mike, wherever you end up will be warmer than GB.

 

[staz]

Tomlin would have gone for 2

 

[johnmd20]

The Giants were dead and buried and GB did the one thing that would wake them up. What a fool McCarthy is.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

I wonder if he planned to go for it on 4th before the third down call.

 

[koufax32]

McCarthy should be fired immediately if they lose this game.

 

[pokey_reese]

How was that WR so open?

 

[speedracer]

Does Brady sneak more than other QBs?

Probably, but a large % of his sneaks are in hurry-up situations I'd guess

 

[eustis22]

why not go for 2?

 

[Erik Hanson's Hook]

is casillas the ex pat?

Yes.

 

[PedroKsBambino]

Hate just ramming it in there twice. Spread it out with your mobile quarterback at least onceZ

agreed. If you know you are willing to go for it on fourth, like the third down being a movement play, then throw it away and try the run on fourth if it doesn't work. Same thing twice in a row...not so much.

 

[DJnVa]

If GB had play action, roll out on 3rd down Rodgers could have waltzed for a first down.

So bad.

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

First Kyle Williams Moment of the playoffs for the Giants.

 

[Mugsy's Jock]

Brady would have snuck that for the 1st down 98 times out of 100.

The other two times he would've drawn an encroachment penalty.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Need a tweet from a Packers beat writer after that.

 

[Marciano490]

Do these sports show hot take guys ever compromise? Like, hey, Rodgers is pretty damn good. He's a top 3 QB and that's very valuable.

 

[ilol@u]

The Special Teams for NYG have let them down.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Cromartie looks awful, why are they letting him out there?

 

[Stitch01]

I wonder if he planned to go for it on 4th before the third down call.

He's the ultimate random button clicker, I doubt it

 

[staz]

I don't believe in clutch, I don't believe in superstition and I certainly don't believe in intangibles.

But I do believe in momentum.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Why the fuck is DRC out there? Jesus, this is why you need versatility up and down the roster, are they one deep at that gunner spot?

 

[DJnVa]

What's the chart say on not going for 2 there???

 

[Freddy Linn]

Snacks is really good too.

 

[shawnrbu]

Cook having a game.

 

[johnmd20]

Casillas gets trucked and stops playing. Until the guy gets 7 more yards and he pushes someone after the play. Nice work tough guy.

 

[Erik Hanson's Hook]

Still think Green Bay's got this.

 

[ilol@u]

GB got away with a massive hold. Has that o-line have a penalty yet?

 

[Al Zarilla]

What's the chart say on not going for 2 there???

All you need do is say "chasing the points" like Troy did and you're smart.

 

[johnmd20]

Still think Green Bay's got this.

This drive is certainly a huge answer.

Cobb FTW.

 

[Ale Xander]

Rodgers is really good

McCarthy needs to stay out of his way

 

[BigSoxFan]

NYPD.

LOLZ

 

[Jed Zeppelin]

I don't believe in clutch, I don't believe in superstition and I certainly don't believe in intangibles.

But I do believe in momentum.

There goes that.

 

[staz]

Now it's a track meet. Ok.

 

[Erik Hanson's Hook]

Giants defense looked tired on that drive.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

That was like a 2 minute drive, surprising letdown by the Giants D.

 

[bosox188]

Green Bay just needs to lock McCarthy in a closet somewhere and let Rodgers make all the decisions for the rest of the game. They'll coast.

 

[ilol@u]

NYG needs to go for 2 if they score a TD here.

 

[dcmissle]

Packers have to stay aggressive. I had no problem going for it, just the play call, slow developing run.
