Looks really weird in slow motion. Like CGI kind of. In any case I doubt the rules specify that the coin has to flip. It's just a weird fluke, and there were others in this game.

I'm a bit late, but any time a Wisconsin team goes to the West coast they always seem to get blasted with some sort of officiating weirdness. Seeing a coin flip get retracted is a first for me. That has nothing to do with why the Packers lost, though. In the end the game was decided on the field. They lost because they couldn't contain one of the big, fast, monster receivers of the NFL in the playoffs again. This time it was Fitz. That guy put the Cards on his back.
What a game. But I have a lot less faith in Carson Palmer now than I did a week ago. I mean, that was his first ever playoff win despite being 36, and he made a lot of dumb mistakes in it.
The Panthers seem a bit better prepared for this game than the Seahawks.
Thanks Seahawks for making me feel less bad about our loss last week

Seattle going to pull a week 15 Giants here in the second half, just you wait!
Who am I kidding?! :sad:
Ahah…Oh wow. I want to feel bad about the Hawks being trounced like this. But the Panthers have been pretty awesome this year.
…And it's a 10-point game! Seahawks are coming! Might be a little too late at this point though.

They are much more of a second half team. Which is completely nerve wracking as a fan lol.
I would've liked to see the Panthers finally get knocked out, but there's always next week against the Cardinals.
i don't think i would have wanted the Seahawks to advance after a first half like that lol. I'd like them to get better and come back next year tho, i like the hawks
I doubt there's anybody more disappointed that the Seahawks didn't pull off that comeback than Warren Moon.

Soo the Broncos can find the endzone.
No non-bye upsets this year…and the AFC is same old same old.
Panthers > Cardinals
Pats > Broncos
The Broncos basement magic works again!! Maybe I should totally skip the AFC championship game for greater effect and just watch the NFC one.:ninja:
Cardinals game was amazing, showing three times comeback qualities (i consider losing that 98yard touchdown interception for a possible 14:0 as one comeback)
might be the last touch needed that they can actually defeat the panthers, even when they showed in the first half the title is all this team might deserve this year.
Pats showed a great comeback of their starting formation and it makes appetite for more.
An NFC would keep me from being sad. Only a Cardinals win would keep me from being annoyed.
I was just thinking that I hadn't seen enough Brady/Manning AFC Championship games in my life.
I can't remember the last time that all the 1 and 2 seeds got past the divisional round.
I don't care what people say about the Pats, I want Brady to wring Manning's scrawny little neck.
Well now that's not very neighborly of you. Manning had a spinal fusion surgery in his neck which nearly ended his career. And from a fan who just got to enjoy a Super Bowl win last year, too.
Brady/Manning–hate the Pats but don't really see how they lose this one unless their defense is more banged up than it seems. I know Brady sucks in Denver, but the Broncos can barely get to the opponent's 30. Hope I'm wrong, though.
NFC championship looks like a better game as long as Palmer plays better than he did in the Packers game. Any interaction between Norman and Fitz will be great.
and here i was hoping Brady would fall down some stairs and break all his arms and legs
Now now, it's not nice to hope a QB breaks his bones BEFORE a game.

Oh. I didn't know that. Okay, I hope Brady breaks his legs. Better?

What about at least getting hit in the eye and winding up with a black eye like his coach:ninja:

im glad u agree with me

just as long as brady's legs get broke

I think we all hope Tom Brady breaks his legs.
I won a lot of money in fantasy football this year after going with the name "Master Deflator" and using a picture of Brady deflating stuff. So I can verify that his strategy works well.

I think the Steelers defense looked better than anyone else in the AFC going into the playoffs, so it's hard to know. But I was surprised their corpse of an offense moved the ball so well against the Broncos D. I'm definitely not very high on them right now.
In other news, Jared Allen broke his foot in the game against the Seahawks.
I think we all hope Tom Brady breaks his legs.
Well he can't throw the football with his legs so he won't miss them.
i can just see belichick out on the field with tom brady in a fucking wheelchair wheeling around during the fucking game lmao
No, Grumpy McGrumpypants would just sit on the sidelines looking grumpier.
So much vitriol aimed at Brady around these parts…
Nice to see the Pats getting bodied by the Bronco's. Really hope Peyton can pull it out against the CARDINALS in the Superbowl this year. It's in all likelihood his last chance at glory.
Eat shit tom Brady
YYEEEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHh!!!!!!!!!!
yes! Patriots are out!
Doesn't particularly matter to me who wins for Cards VS Panths
i'd like the panthers to win because it seems like people have been counting them out all year, and i like that he gives the ball to kids. But i'd be ok if the cardinals won too. Either team i'd be happy to see in the superbowl
Manning going out with a SB would be one of the greatest sports things for me, but at the moment I kinda see Denver vs. Carolina as a similar game to Denver vs. Seattle from a couple years ago, with the new and improved Denver D making it a little better game.
Panthers ruining my night over here.
fumble, interception, interception
wwwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaa

The Panthers will CRUSH Peyton Manning and his Broncos as retribution for the Patriots.
if the panthers make the broncos looks like little bitches, doesnt that actually reflect bad on the pats too for losing to them

Nah nah. The Panthers are going to choke on the big stage. Would really like to see Peyton retire off of a winning season. I don't think he can put together another season like this and I think he knows that too.
Easy choice to root for the Panthers. I doubted them for a loooong time but they've proven me wrong. Plus I hope Peyton's time with the Broncos ends without a ring.

Comeback wasn't in the "cards" I suppose.

What he better know is to not get blown out again at the SuperBowl.

Ugh, don't remind me of that… against this Panthers offense though he might not have much of a choice in the matter, haha.
I think the Panthers win in a blowout similar to two years ago. Peyton is struggling to get shit done, and even though that Broncos defense has been damn good, Newton's been rolling over everything. Plus the NFC was just plain better than the AFC in general this year. I would have picked Panthers, Cards, or Seahawks over anything the AFC has to offer.
i feel like the most interesting superbowl would have been the bengals (with a healthy andy dalton) vs the panthers
well i like to watch Cam play even if he's steam rolling a team, and plus it's an excuse to throw a tiny party at my apartment so it'll be fun
