but dammit if Brady ain't a charmed son of a bitch

In Brady's 44 playoff games, his defense has only let up 30+ points 5 times, Brady winning 2 of them.

He was charmed for landing on the Patriots, but he chose the Bucs in much the same way Manning chose the Broncos. He knew that defense was stacked.

Judge for yourself if you think he could have gotten inside the 5.

I couldnt believe he didnt run. I dont think he would have scored but depending on how hard he wanted to get hit (dive or slide) he could have made it inside the 5 for sure.

No need for dramatics with the teleportation comment, Sturm. John Elway took a helicopter.

Rodgers wouldn't have gotten that in, may gotten to like the 4, in which case they probably go for it on 4th though.

Dak could get it in, but White and/or the DB next to him probably meets him around the 1-2 yard line and it's 50/50 whether or not he could've drove forward for the extra 1-2 yards. Definitely would've been in position to go for it on 4th at the very least.

I do think Dak could gotten it in but he'd have to bring the truck. I don't think Rodgers has that in him but he probably would have gotten inside the 5.

In a random regular season game I don't think Dak gets that in, with 2 minutes left in the NFC Championship down 8 on 3rd down I think he's getting that in if it's a 1 on 1 and not Dak vs. White and the DB.

Tony Romo called. He said ‘Fuck you, Aaron Rodgers. I don’t want to hear it.’
Seeing Brady (43 years old), Brees (41), Rivers (39), Rodgers (37), Roethlisberger (38) all put up great seasons

Romo’s last full season was 34. Disheartening that, if somehow his body could’ve held up, that those ~6 more seasons would’ve gone far to elevate his legacy.

Aside from that, though, it’s weird that Romo’s playoff offenses didn’t match up to their regular season success, scoring 20, 17, 3, 24 and 21. That’s not very good. Only one game above 30 points. However, his playoff passing efficiency was relatively solid even in those low point outputs.

Now that it’s all passed, how we all feeling this new playoff format?

Wildcard weekend with double triple-header and only one bye per conference.

You prefer the old format with 2 byes per conf?

This is better. Double triple header is awesome.
