NFC Championship Game Thread

Those throws were more of wish list than convincing , why Brady .?

So the Bucs run 2 good running plays for a first down.
Then throw the ball deep twice?

Hmmmmm..........

Why is Tampa trying to push the ball down field?

Aggressive play calling, good when it works but can and will bite you in the tuchus.

He tells us that every chance when he gets. I think it's part of Aikman's contract.

The reason Joe Buck says it is because he looks at it as karma.
Joe Buck truly expects he will get in as a broadcaster in two HOFs - MLB and NFL.

have to make it a close game... lol

Tampa Bay hosting a Super Bowl with their team in the game doesn't sound remotely fair. Shouldn't the game be moved now that the Bucs have qualified for the game? We know it does not take much to move the location of a game. The excuse for not doing so should not be, "it's too hard to do".

Football is a meritocracy. If bucs win today, they deserve it. They earned it.

It should always be in a neutral location. Yes, they have earned the right to play in the Super Bowl but it doesn't have to be in Tampa.

Would you be saying this if we were going to host the Super Bowl and we happened to find our way into said Super Bowl?

Tampa trying to hard to keep going for the killshot.

 

[rnr_honeybadger]

That was a Dak Prescott throw.

The city of Tampa has likely invested a great deal into preparing for the game. They pick the cities years in advance.

Moving it would be horrible. If Tampa makes it, the AFC can deal with it.

So let them swap with whoever is hoting in 2022 and no planning is wasted, just delayed a year. All I'm seeing are weak excuses.

But you're moving the ball with the running game. The short passing game is open because the Packers are expecting the deep ball. Move methodically down the field, score, kill the clock.

Agreed, they should be trying to milk clock.

Very uncharacteristic mistake by the GOAT.

Fortunately, he doesn't have the Cowboys defense against whom turnover = touchdown. Bucs defense will try to bail him out.

Another TD drive here would make things interesting.

Thought so too, 1st throw was justified , but not the 2nd one in double coverage

Yes, they have earned the right to play in the Super Bowl but it can still be moved to a neutral location.

Again, not that easy. It isn't like changing who is bringing the snacks. There is a boat load of logistics that have gone into it along with businesses investing in prep for the event.

parcells is a considerably better coach than Johnson.

it’s not even a debatable topic.

He certainly had more success in the NFL with multiple teams.

 

[fifaguy]

Every flag for gb

 

[Mannix]

That was NOT a personal foul.
