Wildcard Saturday Chatter | Cardinals at Panthers & Ravens at Steelers | 12/3/2015

I don't like comparing stats across eras, they were different times then. If/when we lose one it's going to depend on how we lose, if it's an interception on the last drive it will just make it worse, even if it's in the NFCC

Yeah, good point. Let me amend my statement. If Romo looks good and takes us to the NFCC he shouldn't be called a choker anymore.

I don't know, some call White a choker and he had multiple playoff wins

I'd say they are pretty similar overall. Danny did have the advantage of playing on teams that still had some quality players but most were entering the downside of their careers. He didn't choke away regular season games as much as Tony has though, his shortcomings mostly showed up in the playoffs. I would say that Danny was in a better position for success, at least during his first three or four years as a starter. Romo has always been subjected to change and turmoil throughout his career.

 

[Cotton]

Wow.

 

[boozeman]

77 net yards for Arizona.

Fewest net yards of any team in NFL history in the playoffs.

And no, it was not because the Panthers D was that good.

Just shows how shorthanded the Cardinals were. I cannot think of any team that gets to the playoffs like they did with a 3rd string QB and a 3rd string RB.

 

[DLK150]

Wow.

OMG, that is beyond pathetic.

 

[GForce78NJ]

wtf did i just watch? that was horrendous

 

[GForce78NJ]

they were on a 3rd string quarterback just like Ohio State, meaning the points in the college football thread are now moot

 

[boozeman]

Geez. They are trying to put lipstick on this pig by saying the Carolina D put up this number.

I think Ryan Lindley might have been one of the worst QBs to ever start a playoff game.

It is like if we somehow beat Atlanta and Babe Laufenberg got a playoff start.

 

[boozeman]

wtf did i just watch? that was horrendous

I am really interested to see how the ratings were. I bet it was in the toilet.

Bad game and on effing ESPN.

 

[boozeman]

Now they are talking about the impact of a punter in a playoff game.

STTTAAAAHHHP

 

[Cotton]

That game makes me not even want to watch another football game today.

 

[boozeman]

Panthers taking a "victory lap" with the oh, I dunno, hundred or so fans who are still there.

LAWL

Little do they know that they are the folks who are waiting for the bus line.

 

[GForce78NJ]

That game makes me not even want to watch another football game today.

thank god its a huge rivalry in baltimore and pittsburgh. it will at least be a lot of trash talking

 

[Carp]

I love Pitt/Bal games.

 

[boozeman]

thank god its a huge rivalry in baltimore and pittsburgh. it will at least be a lot of trash talking

Those were good matchups a few years ago.

Now, feh.

 

[boozeman]

~tuning to NBC~

Ah. Now this seems like a playoff game.

 

[Carp]

Steve Smith is going to start some shit immediately.

 

[Cotton]

Watch Tate have a huge game.

 

[Cotton]

Or watch him fumble it away.

 

[boozeman]

Normally, I would be hardcore rooting for the Ravens but in this game...I am not.

But there is this teeny tiny itsy bitsy microscopic homer voice in my head hoping for the Steelers so we can beat them in the Super Bowl.

My God.

I think I need to see a therapist or something.
