How 'bout those Cowboys !

Garrett deciding to clock the ball with less than a minute left was incredibly dumb on so many levels.

Exactly.. If you wanna stop the clock - atleast call the timeout. Timeout and you preserve all 3 downs and you get to go over a playcall. Instead he wasted and down gave Rodgers plenty of time - with his 2 timeouts smh

Giants beat Dallas 2x. Green Bay beat Giants 2x (one a turkey smack). I like Dallas but better team won (and did it away)

That's exactly the issue...not one defender on this year's team would have been a starter on the previous Super Bowl teams. There is no pass rush and no one in the secondary that can cover a WR.

To be fair the Giants had a really good defense this year and they got thrashed last week. Rodgers is simply playing at another level right now. The bigger issue is Garrett clocking the ball (as someone mentioned) and leaving time on the clock.

No pass rush.. something we have had in common with them for too long now. Lets hope we get that fixed this off-season. Ash is a DC.. he must get that done.
 
Right after Green Bay field goal:

Aaron Rodgers is not human. If the Steelers can somehow win in Foxboro I am hoping beyond hope that it's a Steelers-Falcons matchup in the Super Bowl. It's hard to beat supernatural beings.
 
I can't recall the last time they won a playoff game.
And I'm real happy for the Packers owner.
As a huge Packer fan I was very happy to win (especially against the Cowboys!). As for the owners of the Packers, they are to a great extent the citizens of Green Bay. Have a read of the below:

Green Bay Packers, Inc. is the official name of the publicly held nonprofit corporation that owns the Green Bay Packers football franchise of the National Football League (NFL).

The Packers are the only publicly owned franchise in the NFL.[1] Rather than being the property of an individual, partnership, or corporate entity, they are held as of 2016 by 360,760 stockholders. No one is allowed to hold more than 200,000 shares,[2] which represents approximately four percent of the 5,011,558 shares currently outstanding.[3] It is this broad-based community support and non-profit structure[4] which has kept the team in Green Bay for nearly a century in spite of being the smallest market in all of North American professional sports.

Green Bay is the only team with this public form of ownership structure in the NFL, grandfathered when the NFL's current ownership policy stipulating a maximum of 32 owners per team, with one holding a minimum 30% stake, was established in the 1980s.[5] As a publicly held nonprofit, the Packers are also the only American major-league sports franchise to release its financial balance sheet every year.

Yeah....thanks. I know all that.
The Packers have been my second favorite team since they won the first two Super Bowls and won me some nice coin. If I remember right it was Starr to Boyd Dowler and Carroll Dale...coached by some guy named Lombardi.
 
A great weekend. The two most despised teams, Seattle and Dallas, both lost. At least the Cowboy players had the decency to accept the defeat with some grace, unlike the squawking, infantile, finger-pointing Seahawks.
 
That was a fantastic football game between two very good teams.

Rodgers simply made the tough plays to win it.

I would have preferred OT, wanted that game to keep going.

The ratings were sky high of course.
 
A key play that was overlooked was Rodgers holding on to the football when sacked from the blindside by Heath the play before the throw to Rodgers to set up the FG.
 
Garrett deciding to clock the ball with less than a minute left was incredibly dumb on so many levels.
Bad game for Garrett. In addition to clocking the ball late in game, the sloppy "12 man in the huddle" penalty was a killer. And no excuse for Rodgers outsmarting him pretty much the entire 1st half with the D scrambling on and off the field and having trouble getting set. Bring back the Big Tuna.
 
Not sure what I like better - Cowboys have a really crappy year or frontrunner team loses heartbreaker in playoffs. Sort of like picking your favorite child.

I was thinking the same thing...an unusual but cool situation..that's about all they have and I'm pulling for them..
 
I told a buddy of mine who's a Cowboys fan - who'd have thought in 1996 that the Cubs would win the World Series before you guys got back to the NFC Championship game?

We'll be back next season. Her, not so much.[winking]

IMHO:

- you'll have a more difficult schedule
- you'll have teams ready for what Dak and Zeke bring to the table
- Witten isn't getting any younger
- you got lucky a bunch of times this season

...next year might not be the "dream season" that a lot of Cowboy fans I know can't shut up about (already, my Lord it's exhausting...). But, yes, you're right about "her" lol!

Actually, I'm hearing she may run for mayor of New York
 
They all aren't just Green Bay fans that own it. My brother's an Eagles fan and he thought it would be cool to be able to say "I'm a partial owner of the Green Bay Packers" by basically buying one stock to hang on his wall.
