I haven't paid attention to Colon Blowhard since 2010/2011, when he was dissing AR for not winning a playoff game and saying he'd rather have Mark Sanchez at QB.

A*hole was predicting a one-and-done in the playoffs. AR & the Packers went on to win the SB.

There's an old saying that when God closes a door, he opens a window. So if the Super Bowl window is closed in Green Bay, maybe that means the door is hanging wide open?

IMO It's on the defense, when we won in 2010 the defense was actually respectable it just deteriorated each year after.

IIRC we gave up a ton of yards in 2010, we just got a ton of turnovers too. And luckily those turnovers kept coming in the postseason - thus the victory.

And in the Super Bowl, I don't think they ever trailed. What is this talk of almost blew a huge lead? The Falcons, now that team blew a huge lead. 28 - 3 ending out the 3rd quarter and they lost. That's blowing a huge lead.

I don't care if we give up a ton of yards, and no one else should either. The game is not won with yards, it is won with points, we all know this, yet, somehow, we overlook points. If we give up 500 yards every game, but get teams off the field on 3rd down (how the hell does that work with that much yards?) and they don't get more than 14-17 points a game, who the hell cares? An Aaron Rodgers led team should put up 20+ every game, thus, WIN baby WIN!

Okay, we were up 21 - 10 at half time when Steelers marched down the field to get that 7 points. Then our offense failed to add points and then Steelers got another 7 points. Damn that defense!!! FIRE THEM ALL!

OK, ok, I get it. If you're giving up massive yards during the regular season, chances are you will not close out the deal in the playoffs against better opponents. I still think worrying about yards is foolish, even if I understand the gripe.

There, I went full circle and argued with myself. Are you people happy now? Are you!?!?!?!

Point being, the Packers had a 21-3 lead going into the two minute warning, blew it, and were one TD away from being behind from early in the third quarter to the end of the game. If this happened say, next year, would you be going "Oh god, not another blown playoff lead..." the entire second half?

Mucky Tundra (2-Apr) : Will there be a tracker on the ball or something?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : uh oh

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : Too bad camera's can't spot the ball as well.

Mucky Tundra (1-Apr) : So will the chain gang be gone completely or will they still be around as a backup or whatever?

Zero2Cool (1-Apr) : The method for measuring first downs in the NFL will switch from chain gangs to camera-based technology in 2025, the league announced.

Martha Careful (1-Apr) : A big step in the right direction. Just put in the college system is very very good.
