Conference Championship(s) GDT

[EzraTank]

AB out vs the Packers with a knee injury. Team announces they want him back next year, could these injuries be the end of AB? He's not a spring chicken.

Picks for today:

Packers win 38-24
Chiefs win 31-27

[Born2Steel]

Bucs over Packers

Chiefs over Bills

[st33lersguy]

Bucs up

[86WARD]

Packers and Chiefs.

Would like to see Packers and Bills.

[EzraTank]

Bucs up

Shut the Buc Up. :)

[86WARD]

Rodgers pocket awareness is pretty terrible early on...he can certainly sling it though...

[st33lersguy]

Bucs have the advantage due to defense

[EzraTank]

Nice throw by State Farm boy.

[st33lersguy]

LOL, Arians admitted that he allows Tommy to coach and sometimes just sits back and watches.

[EzraTank]

Right back down the field almost as if driven by a God Wind. 14-7 Bucs!

[teegre]

Go Bills!!!

If the Bucs win, I hope it’s only because AB and Brady have NOTHING to do with it.

Too close to call. GB got away on their last TD with a bad hold.

[Born2Steel]

TD!

[86WARD]

Balls call by Arians to pull the punt team off and go for it on 4th & 3 from midfield with :18 left in the half. Results in a TD to Scotty Miller and a 21-10 lead at the half...

[EzraTank]

GB sleeping. WTF.

[st33lersguy]

Well, highly likely we see Brady in another Super Bowl. Terrible defense by Green Bay

I think Brady would love to stick this in Belichick & Krafts face.

Brady will be playing until he's 50. :chuckle:

[86WARD]

Yikes...

[st33lersguy]

Damn, this team is really firing on all cylinders right now. 18 point lead seems insurmountable the way this Bucs defense is playing. I will be picking the Bucs to beat whoever they play in the Super Bowl

[86WARD]

Bucs with two back up safeties in the game and the Packers running pitches and sweeps...

[86WARD]

Uh oh....

[pczach]

Brady has gotten away with a couple lollipops....but not that one. Bad throw.

[Mojouw]

Brady and Arians are just such a mismatch.

[pczach]

Rodgers missed Adams wide open uncovered down the sideline on a free play with offside penalty.

That's a couple big plays he has missed.

[86WARD]

Packers heating up...

[86WARD]

Brady and Arians are just such a mismatch.

Funny you say that. They’ve been droning on about how great a fit they’ve been...lol.

[EzraTank]

I wonder if Benny Snell gets royalties every time someone runs for 1 yard?

[86WARD]

Rodgers to Adams is nasty.

28-23 after the Adams TD and the St. Brown conversion drop...

[st33lersguy]

Oh my. Whole new ballgame

[Born2Steel]

StBrown dropped the 2pt conversion right in his hands. Rodgers must not have had his feet set properly.

[Mojouw]

Wonder if GB message boards are ablaze with how poorly coached and prepared the team is.

[86WARD]

Wow. What an interception by Alexander!!

[Born2Steel]

How does Brady miss Evans that open?

[NCSteeler]

That's some solid Arians offense the way I remember it

Yeah...I don’t get it. Even if they don’t convert, it’s 31-23 and Tampa has to start deep in their own territory. A lot of bad things can happen down there and still maybe a chance to tie it...

His greatness is undeniable.

He's still finding ways to get it done. He's been in a great situation his entire career, but the man knows how to play the game and makes the plays necessary to win.

It's amazing what he's doing at his age. He must be using the special sauce.

I will say it. The Bucs won in spite of Tom Brady. They won last week because Brees out "old manned" Brady. They won this week because the Packers couldn't capitalize on the turnovers their defense generated and the Bucaneers were able to put up TDs on short fields.

Tom Brady made just enough plays to win today but the story of the game was the Tampa Bay defense and some questionable offensive execution on the Packer's part.

The Steelers still don’t have the secondary to shut down the Chiefs. Not a knock on the Steelers secondary really, the Chiefs are just that stacked.

You're entitled to your opinion, but I don't really think it is even a question that the Steelers were the best or second best team in the AFC when they were at full strength.

I can't understand how everyone here keeps watching the same games I am, yet they don't seem to notice that hardly any teams have scored much at all throughout the playoffs. All these offensive juggernauts that everyone screamed were superior to the Steelers keep putting up no points when it counts in the post season.

We already know the defense was the best in the league when healthy.

I simply don't understand the bashing. We all know the defense didn't have Dupree, Bush, and Haden. They lost Highsmith early in the Browns game, and Williams and Spillane were put together with bubble gum, tape, and spit just to get them on the field.

The OL was down a few players, and some guys were playing hurt most of the season.

I think they were clearly the team best equipped to give the Chiefs a run if they were completely healthy. Their pass rush alone would be enough to make them the team that could get to Mahomes and cause them some problems.

Two things on the AFC game:

What's the deal with Allen dropping so far back in the pocket regularly. He was going 10-11 yards even without pressure sometimes.
I can't stand watching that child beater #10 run with the ball. Looking forward to the day someone knocks his teeth out.

Yeah he broke his little boy’s arm and since charges weren’t pressed the NFL swept it under the rug and the Chiefs award him with a mega deal. It’s wrong but I really hope someone breaks his leg and his 4.2 speed goes to 4.8.

No doubt the defense was there. I think they would’ve done well against any team. I just don’t think the offense would have been able to do it. You would’ve gotten a couple/few stops on Mahomes, but I don’t think the Steelers offense would’ve capitalized on the stops/turnovers enough to counter the times they didn’t stop the Chiefs.

Brady nearly single handedly lost that game for the Bucs with INTs. I agree 10SBs is insane and Brady is definitely the GOAT, but goes to show this is a TEAM sport first and last.

[86WARD]

Mike Pettine’s defensive call at the end of the half was maybe the worst call of the game. At that point, there’s really only two things to do...defend the goal line and guarding the sideline. Rush 2-3 and have 8-9 in coverage. I think that’s much, much worse than Lafluer opting to go for the FG. At least with the FG, you can kinda see what he’s attempting to do. That coverage at the end of the half...yikes...that’s some Keith Butler shit there...

If you have a hate on for him sure. But, if you watched the game objectively, then you saw the GB defense give up some easy TD's on some JV play, while the Bucs defense has much better coverage and pass rush. The Packers LT was Jonathan Scott kind of bad. More matador than O lineman. On the other side, Barrett was beating Rick Wagner like a road pylon in the pass rush.

Rodgers outplayed Brady, but the Bucs Defense outplayed the Packers by far and thats why they won.
