Who knows? What I do know is that, unless you are the Green Bay Packers, winning a game at Lambeau Field in the depths of January is a very fucking difficult thing to do. If Brady pulls it off, fair play to him (I do hope the Packers have a pressure gauge handy  ). More likely that Rodgers will conduct a master class. I've thought the Chiefs have been underwhelming for a while now this season. If they don't have Mahomes you'd fancy them even less. Having said that, a chance for the back up QB to become an instant hero? I'll stay out of than one and concentrate on the NFC even though I do fancy the Bills to make it through.

Escobarp Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Last time we will ever see brees and based on that performance he’s completely shot. Each interception was a poor weak throw. Bizarre really. Tampa defense looked very good if not spectacular. Brady likes the cold and is used to it so next Sunday could be interesting.  Im also not sure mahomes gets the ok to play next week. If so you can book the super bowl viewing spot Zico. In a lot of ways it shows just how strange this game is when just one player is missing and that’s your chances gone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Spider Posted January 18, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted January 18, 2021 The Packers look unbeatable to me. Not seen a team so dominant in all areas since the Pats at their height a few years back.

Watch last nights game highlights and look how Tampa shut down Alvin Kamara and the entire saints run game. Forced brees to throw and then picked him off although like I said he was shit last night.  it’s all on the day of course and stats go out the window as we all know especially in big games but statistically you’ve got two very evenly matched teams there. Although packers run game is much stronger for me which may be the difference. I don’t see the defense of GB being the differentiator though like you do. But we will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 it's easy to criticise Brees after last night, but when the defensive coverage was that good last night combined with the pass rush, it wasn't all on him. Too many drops/fumbles, players not managing to get separation and he's got about a second to decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But without having taysom hill in there to mix it up they just looked one dimensional and brees just didn’t go through with the passes. In his prime he would have fired them in. Father Time catches up with us all.  brady isn’t the player he was either but he finds a way to win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Packers offence wil be the key to this one. Defences look pretty even to me and that's saying something. It's taken a while and some shrewd recruiting for the Packers to be in the same league as the Buccs defence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very sound analysis. I believe the Packers will despatch the Buccs but I'd be lying if I said that the Brady factor didn't worry me.

frank_spencer Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Dwayne Haskins has gone from 1st round pick at Washington to a futures contract at the Stillers and challenging Josh Dobbs and Duck Hodges to be the non starting QB on the roster. Last season it was Paxton Lynch desperate to salvage a career as a training camp QB this year its Haskins turn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e2e4 Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) Quote Can you ask someone nearby to press control/Alt/Delete on your system please? ? the first line is straightforward , https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miami_Redskins_football the second is a joke based on alternate theories about the population of the americas , like in this book- https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/10948502-across-atlantic-ice and the 'controversy' around the cleveland indians name. fair enough if you dont know , but i didnt make owt up. i didnt quote the post i was refering to because it was the post above mine. Pretty sure this is simillar to the "i hate the theme from Boon" from a music thread the other day. Folk arent making up things when they talk. Edited January 22, 2021 by e2e4 typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Spider Posted January 24, 2021 Site Supporter Share Posted January 24, 2021 As much as I love NFL It’s just occurred to me that a fixture between the Packers and the Buccaneers is one of the gayest sounding things in sport.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
