    I've never seen a more incompetent defense. Seattle ran the same 4 plays all game and all of a sudden, green bay couldn't cover them. Green bay definitely deserved to lose.

    When PTI asks Monday afternoon if Seattle won the game or did green bay lose it, the definite answer is green bay lost it.

    There's no definitive answer to questions like that. Seattle's defense held Green Bay to six points in the second half. Isn't that their defense making plays? Lynch ran over the Pack defense. Isn't that the Seattle running game making plays?

    Agreed Seattle deserved this win. GB only 9 points after quarter 1, just not good enough.

    The SEA/GB game sure set the bar pretty high on Championship Sunday.

    Indeed. I don't know how any game can top what we just saw, at least that 2nd half. Love watching Seattle play.

  • Seattle was lucky not to be down 28 after the first half.

    See I totally disagree. Why were they lucky? Because they made stops and held GB to field goals after their turnovers? Because McCarthy is spinless and didn't go for it on 4th and goal from the 1-yard-line? Again, you and I just watch sports very differently. Neither of us is right or wrong here.

    If Indy wins i'm going for Seattle. If NE wins I'm going for NE. Only so that the Giants are the only team to beat them in the Super Bowl

    Let's not get crazy. Buffalo coming back from 30 at the half in the early 90's against the Oilers holds that title.

    True but there is a difference between a wild card game and the AFC championship game.

    Wow, all the credit to Seattle but as a Packers fan this is about as heartbreaking as it gets. Couldn't they have just got creamed from the beginning like everyone thought they would?

    No question about it. Seattle's defense did their part early and it paid off at the end.

    Totally. They got an early lead and tried to cling to it for dear life. "Playing not to lose" might as well be called "playing to lose."

    It wasn't the 9 points....it was the botched onside kick and inexplicable no contest on the wounded duck 2 point conversion.

    Ehh, it's all the playoffs. Win or go home. Plus buffalo goes to the Super bowl that year. Is there really a difference between a wild card game and the afc championship? My apologies for being argumentative. But Seattle was only down 2 scores at the half.
  • Hard to imagine NE not coming away with 7 there. Capitalized on that turnover.

    I think they earned it. How many other games do you watch where the team needs of few TD's with only minutes left on the clock. To be able to execute a TD run (Especially as far back as they got penalized), execute an onside kick, excute another touchdown, execute a conversion, then get a 3 play touchdown in the first minutes of OT.

    That's not a gift, that's f'ing earned. So many teams fail. It's like being down 2 goals in an NHL games and pulling out your goalie with 3 minutes to go. How many teams can actually score 2 goals to tie with the goal pulled for 3 minutes. It's extremely hard to do. You pull that off you earned it.

    I think there is a big difference. Especially considering it was against the fucking Oilers who couldn't win a playoff game to save their life.

    I was not.

    I think this was:

    http://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/buffalo-bills-pull-off-greatest-comeback-in-nfl-history


    On this day in 1993, backup quarterback Frank Reich leads the Buffalo Bills to a 41-38 overtime victory over the Houston Oilers in an American Football Conference (AFC) wild card playoff game that will forever be known to football fans as "The Comeback."

    By halftime of the game, Houston was out in front, 28-3, behind four touchdown passes by future Hall of Famer Warren Moon. At the beginning of the second half, things got even darker for Buffalo when the Houston strong safety Bubba McDowell intercepted a pass from Reich, who was filling in for the injured Jim Kelly. McDowell ran 58 yards for another Oiler touchdown, putting the score at 35-3. At this point, many Bills fans headed home out of the chilly western New York weather, convinced the game was lost.

    On the very next possession, however, Buffalo began to rally, driving 50 yards in 10 plays and scoring a touchdown on a one-yard run by Kenneth Davis. Bills kicker Steve Christie then recovered his own onside kick to give Reich the ball. Reich needed only four plays that time, connecting with Don Beebe on a 38-yard touchdown to put the score at 35-17. A stellar job by the Bills’ defense gave Buffalo possession again, and Reich capitalized by finding Andre Reed for a 26-yard touchdown. On the Oilers’ next drive, Bills safety Henry Jones intercepted a deflected Moon pass for a 15-yard return, enabling Reich to find Reed for another score. By that point, the Bills had cut their deficit to four points, in a span of only six minutes and 52 seconds.

    After the Oilers botched a field goal attempt and turned the ball over again, Reich made a 17-yard touchdown pass to Reed to put Buffalo up 38-35 with less than three minutes left in regulation. In the waning seconds of the game, Houston’s Al Del Greco made a 26-yard field goal kick to tie the score and send the game into overtime. On a Houston drive, the Bills defensive back Nate Odomes intercepted a Moon pass. Davis made two six-yard rushes, and Christie stepped up for a 32-yard field goal attempt. He booted the ball through the uprights, winning the game for Buffalo 41-38 and completing the largest comeback victory (32 points) in National Football League (NFL) history.

    The Bills made it to the Super Bowl that year but lost to the Dallas Cowboys. It was the third of four consecutive Super Bowl appearances for the Bills; they lost all four games.


    MAYBE you weren't born yet?

    Sorry, but if a team turns the ball over 5 times they don't deserve to win and MOST times they don't.
