At this point right now no QB is playing better with what they have than Jordon Love 

 

I remember a Wildcard game in the 2002 season between the Niners and Giants at the old Candlestick. 14-38 down at half time and rallied back to win. 

Strange things can happen in playoffs, just sayin.

Big stop to hold them to 3. 
Time usage is as important as anything for GB now, the more they can chew the loser desperate Cowboys have to become.

You just never know in this sport but Dallas might have needed a TD on that drive

Green Bay needs to eat up the clock so lets see how the short passes and running game goes.  Can't have a 3 and out

*Gorg beat me to it

After all that Dallas miss the extra point. Nothing going right

Oh I don’t know, seems alright to me


That's a costly PI penalty on that 2 point play.  Could have been a 2 score game

Dallas are quite capable so GB need to eat up the clock and hopefully score 

Been saying for years McCarthy is an overrated coach. Good during the reg season and avg during play offs. Looks like another year where his team is good enough to win a SB and come play offs can’t get it done.

I hate going early on a win. Ultimate mozz

In the 2021 GF declaring the win only came when we got 8 goals in front.  Might have been another Fritsch goal that sealed the deal

Jones has had a game to remember, in a big match situation, his best ever

He should pay with his job for this debacle.

He was brought in to stiffen team resolve and have a genuine go at winning the SB. They are as far away as ever. Very brittle mentality. When the chips are down the cowboys have all the fortitude of a lemon meringue. Powder puffs.

He just might. It’s one to ing to lose a play off, this is next level.

 

Feel for you mate.

At half time in that game I still thought thr Cats were a show. We missed some opportunities in the first half and went in 5 goals up. A quick goal to start the 2nd half and the Cats would have been within 4 and we'd have had a game. Fortunately we started the half with a Benny Brown dagger.

The worst is when you get ribbed for these views by fellow laid back too cool for school MFC fans. "Relax bro we're 4 goals up" 

It's my belief that everyone has their own in-built understanding of when a game is over and everyone else is wrong.

8 of 11 here have tipped the Rams but that doesn't mean much

The tipping curse has continued into the post-season!

My dad is renowned for seeing who 'the tipsters' in the newspaper have tipped as research when doing his weekly footy tips. I still don't know why.

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised nor would I defend him if it happened. 3 x 12 win seasons in a row and they have bottled it every time.

I've never seen anything expansive or innovative about McCarthy's playbook and its my opinion that he succeeds when he has really strong coordinators. He's a facilitator coach and not a lot more. I wouldn't mind seeing Dan Quinn get another shot

That surprises me. I mean lions have been good all year.

The Rams are one of the most dangerous wildcard teams on the NFC side for mine. Their form on the last 5 weeks is close to best in NFL. 

Really physical and if you just happen to catch them on a day when Stafford, Kupp, Nucua and Higbee look like they're playing flag football then good fricken luck!

some consolation scores to give some respectability to the scoreline but make no mistake that was a trouncing. embarrassing stuff. just pathetic.

Belichick to Dallas? Possible or stupid?

Personally I can't see Bill going anywhere where he can't be GM or at least have a big say in drafting. Jog on.

 

Excellent game from Love (albeit without too much pressure from the cowboys D). Looks like Packers have found a real talent to replace Rodgers @Macca. Reckon you guys are closer to an SB than Dallas.

I can't get my head around Dak and Lamb having that moment on the sideline about not being on the same page. All year the chemistry has been electric between those two, maybe the best QB-WR connection in the league? Yet all of a sudden they lose it in the most important game? Deeper questions need to be asked there and you have to start with the coach.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
