The Sunday Night match up yesterday wasn't really a game so much as a beat down. The Packers wanted to win their postseason rematch vs. the Giants but New York wouldn't have any of it. The G-Men started to separate themselves from the Packers late in the 1st quarter and just continued into the 2nd quarter. Two more TDs by the G-Men in that quarter put them up by 21 at the half. One more TD for New York was all that was scored the rest of the game and the Giants put the Packers down 38-10. Eli Manning threw 3 TDs in this game while Aaron Rodgers threw one TD early and also an interception. Both teams are now 7-4.
Meanwhile, the Falcons took their questionable game play to Tampa to face the Buccaneers. This game featured a neck and neck game that went down to the final seconds as the Falcons barely make it out of central Florida with a 24-23 win. Atlanta scored the game winning TD with a Michael Turner 3 yard TD run in the middle of the 4th quarter. A FG miss for both sides afterwards put the end to this game. Falcons are now 10-1 while the Bucs fall to 6-5.
Tampa Bay, however, do not loss any ground in their Wild Card hunt. The Seahawks lose to the Dolphins 24-21 which keeps them at 6-5. So does Minnesota with their 28-10 loss to the Chicago Bears. True, Washington crept a step closer winning their game over Dallas on Thanksgiving but New Orleans 31-21 loss to San Francisco means they don't tie with the Bucs. So Seattle, Tampa, and Minnesota remain tied at 6-5 fighting for that 6th Wild Card spot.
Also, how does San Diego let Ray Rice convert a 4th and 29 on a dump play like that late in the game. The Ravens get the game tying FG as a result and then win it in OT 16-13. Someone fire Norv Turner now. He and Lane Kiffin never deserved their jobs. THAT'S RIGHT, LANE, I'M CALLING YOUR BS YOU CALL HEAD COACHING SKILLS OUT TWO DAYS IN A ROW!!!
