Great? Absolutely. Rodgers and Brady being knocked out made it even greater. Honestly, the only blemish is the Bills being eliminated which likely means another SB win for the Chiefs but even that isn't something I'll complain about.

That might've been the Super Bowl right there. And yes, the OT rule where it may not even give one of the offenses a chance to score is flat out stupid. I think the Giants did something like this in their last Super Bowl.

There is definitely a chance at OT.

I cannot believe what I'm witnessing.

...well, this game can't end in regulation with a FG.

Cooper Heimlich Kupp saves the Rams. Holy moly.

Rams choke job begins here?

Gotta go for the TD here.

Rams can't let up here. They were up on the 49ers as well in that final regular season game and look how that turned out.

Like a good neighbor, playoff choke is there.

Oh, what a shame for Rodgers and the Packers...

Just imagine if the 49ers offense actually did anything this game...

Neither can the O-line be an absolute sieve that doesn't allow anything to happen on offense. All that firepower and only three field goals isn't going to cut it.

Debatable. At the minimum, it's a massive anchor to any Super Bowl aspirations. A torpedo if Burrow gets injured.

Cardinals need Kyler Murray not to throw picks.

Honestly not that surprised the Cardinals are imploding. After all, they lost to a Matt Rhule Panthers team led by PJ Walker.

Yep. Mayock's gone. Wonder if we'll be hearing him again for this year's draft... https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/01/17/raiders-fire-mike-mayock/

Probably the only time of the year I'll tolerate Stephen A Smith:

Unfortunately, my recollection of McAdoo is UrinatingTree and what might as well be our new fight song:

I will say this. At that point in the game, the Cowboys options were limited. One look at the 49ers defense on that play (a great vantage point below) and you can tell trying any route going towards the sidelines would be well defended, something they hadn't done up until that point. Even so, this is where some creative playcalling would've been a better option, something the Cowboys had shown they could do in this very game. I personally would've taken my end zone shot here since that defensive formation would've been more favorable to exploit or draw a penalty. Also, McCarthy was correct in that there should had been no issues spotting the ball. Except he glosses over the fact that they were the ones that made the mistake by trying to do it themselves. That's something that shouldn't even require practice - and I wonder that was even practiced - because it's such a fundamental part of the game. The closest equivalent I could think of is when Kirk Cousins took a knee instead of spiking the ball and cost his team a chance to kick a field goal.

Wouldn't surprise me if Jerry demands that rule to be changed. That and no one calling out Dak for that comment.

...at least the Steelers can say they led this game at one point.

This may be the best season ever for Uglies scoring touchdowns.
