NFL Playoffs? You kidding me? Playoffs!?!

Why do they keep throwing it on first and goal inside the five?  Yeah, it helps when the Saints don't bother to cover Crabtree, but why not give it to Gore twice on first and second?

[katmai]

I doubt they will today.

Well, they won't if the Niners keep knocking motherfuckers unconscious. 

indeed

Nothing would make me happier than a New York win there.  But I just don't think they can do it.  If their offense takes a quarter to get started, they could already be down 3 touchdowns.  Sure, the Packers D is vulnerable, but the Giants would be even worse if they didn't have the best D line in football.

GB is an almost completely pass-oriented offense. The Giants have some of the best pass rush in football. Meanwhile, Manning knows how to win and the Giants can actually run the ball a bit - and as you say, the Packers' D is vulnerable to both the pass AND the run.

With so much on the line, I don't think it's going to take NY a whole quarter to get on the board.

It's still early.  Very early.
But this is awesome.

[fhdz]

the Pack cannot stop the run at all.

They may be soft in the middle but the Giants won't be able to run outside on them.

No need to run outside if they can run up the middle all day.

It's still early.  Very early.
But this is awesome.

The Niners match up well with all three of the teams left in NFC, yeah it's early, but with the opportunistic defense and the running game eating up clock, it's a great start for them today.

Wtf is going on in this game

[CountDeMoney]

All these dome boys are losing the ball in the sun.  Brees' INT, the second fumble. 
So smart of the Niners to defer and choose the end zone to defend.

THEYLL NEVER SEE WILLIS COMING IN FROM THE SUN

Yowza.

[fhdz]

If it weren't for bad luck, the Saints'd have no luck at all today.

Jesus.

Receiver was clearly down; I'm sure they'll overturn this one at least.

[sbr]

When the Saints come marching in.

[fhdz]

That throw & catch were ridiculously perfect.

Saints could have given their backs the day off today...

[fhdz]

What a half!

[Admiral Yi]

Thank God it's a game again.

Goose, WTF were you thinking with that tie? Don't you have someone who helps you with stuff like that?
