NFL Playoffs Divisional Round - Games Thread

Something that amazes me is how insanely open these Packers WRs are. I saw the same phenomenon on some of the plays with with the Texans in the regular season.

Seeing the Panthers struggle so much with separation and seeing other teams have dudes almost all alone on a section on the field makes me blame the offensive scheme a LOT. Theres not THAT much of a difference in separation just from raw speed alone.

Just now, Brooklyn 3.0 said:

I enjoy the hate for Purdy. And I use that word lightly of course. At some point you guys have to admit he's better than just a game manager.

I honestly don't see it. He hits the throws I expect him to hit. He rarely misses when there's a throw there that you expect an NFL QB to hit. But he also rarely makes a plus player where you're like "oh wow, that was special". I call that a game manager. That's not necessarily a bad thing. It's most certainly not a bad thing for the last pick in the draft. A lot of teams wish they had a good game manager. It only becomes a potential bad thing once the Niners have to entertain paying him like a legit franchise QB. You can't do that  if he's carrying a cap hit that forces you to make business decisions elsewhere on your roster he goes from a positive to a negative.

    • Jeremy Fowler draft intel on the Panthers: “Carolina was high on Proctor. If he somehow slipped to 19, he was a viable option.” “Caleb Lomu was on the Panthers short list too.” “Panthers weren’t totally comfortable with Stowers there at 49.”   https://x.com/panthersontap/status/2049827264972353727?s=46&t=xeIgh_-Vr2aKxBkBJdfnKA
    • No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.    
    • It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
