Ugh. The suffering continues. Not only do we lose to the Eagles, but we're stuck with Childress for another season now. Bloody hell....

Oh, you guys could have beaten the eagles if you hadn't thrown that interception and been forced to rely on the passing attack.Ugh. The suffering continues. Not only do we lose to the Eagles, but we're stuck with Childress for another season now. Bloody hell....

Who exactly forced the Vikings to rely on Tavaris Jackson's arm anyway? Peterson is always a hit or miss guy, you just have to stick with him until he hits. They didn't, and so of course they didn't win either. I thought that was a serious coaching lapse.
The Eagles are soft. Their offensive gameplans are high risk, and as much as I like the blitzing mentality on defense I question how effective it can be against a well prepared and well rested team. More than any other team left they have to rely on one guy to make everything work, and if he gets shut down or doesn't show up that's the ballgame. (Of course if he does show they could waltz right to the SB...)
Miami's offense is too predictable. Gimmicks like the 'wildcat' do not work in the playoffs if you've been running them all year, and Pennington doesn't have the arm to diversify their passing attack without a gimmick run threat. I don't think they were necessarily the weakest team to make it in, but they were the most vulnerable offense facing the most opportunistic defense.
Pacman belongs in a Lion's uniform, just, you know, for laughs. Maybe they could make him a wide receiver? Trade a top draft pick for him? Sorry Lions fans.

Well...when he misses that's time off the clock. Peterson did have one long run for touchdown though.

Wow...
The Cardinals just defied Occam's Razor in so many ways.
It is better to conquer yourself than to win a thousand battles. Then, the victory is yours. It cannot be taken from you, not by angels or by demons, heaven or hell.
Re: Official 2008-09 NFL thread
Holy crap, we beat the Giants.
I don't know whether to be more happy about this fact or confused that the two teams in the NFC Championship Game are the Eagles and the Cardinals.

Man, all the teams I've rooted for this weekend have thrown the game away. The panthers being the worst offenders of course. San Diego better win.
