Lets enjoy some playoff football!

 

[Arodin]

This feels like one of the oddest playoff games I can recall. Not just the losing-record division winner, which has been done before, but a high-record opponent that is so depleted from the start of the season that they actually feel like an underdog. Neither team feels, right now, like they should be playoff contenders, yet one gets to go to the next round. This could, in turn, make for a very competitive, back-and-forth kind of contest that goes all the way to the final play.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Carolina playing way better right now and should win easily.

 

[jurb26]

Home team with an actual NFL QB wins this one.

 

[dickey moe]

Sing it baby, sing it!

Panthers have been playing like SB contenders. They should win easily.

Hoping the Lions win as the Panthers have a decent chance of beating GB.

Seahawks would be tough of course.

Go Panthers!

 

[East Coast Bias]

Carolina wins big.

 

[Arodin]

Lot of Carolina love in here...I get it, but I think Arizona's defense has been underrated most of the season, and should keep it close enough to stay interesting.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Well, they're never going to score so...

 

[jurb26]

Lindley looking ugly early on.

If Lindley plays well, it will be a good game. And yes, their d could keep it close

 

[The General]

How does Hoculi get a playoff game?

 

[The General]

Cam needs to run all day long.

 

[jurb26]

I love Arz D but they are going to be on the field a ton in this game. Eventually they break.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Cam > Benjamin baby

 

[jurb26]

Benjamin with a nice push off there.

 

[jurb26]

Cam, gotta make that throw.

 

[rockaction]

Dang. Just before the FFPC deadline ended, I changed from Kelvin Benjamin and Ed Dickson to T.Y. Hilton. I've got Carolina winning this game fairly easily, and that might have been a bad move.

 

[sho nuff]

How does Hoculi get a playoff game?

Threatens to choke someone out if he doesn't?

 

[jurb26]

Wow, Cromartie almost took that to the house.

 

[jurb26]

I'm OK with Car kicking FGs in this game.

 

[IHEARTFF]

bad throw there, but 3 might be enough to win

 

[ffldrew]

Cam real lucky that was not picked. Not a good start for him.

 

[Card Trader]

Jesus...I can punt better than that. Pathetic

 

[jurb26]

Car getting gifted great filed position thus far.

Man that Cards P sucks.

Man that Cards P sucks.

Yet another backup starting for the Cards, I still believe that someone out there selling insurance or cars could do a better job

 

[QuizGuy66]

Wow this looks like it's not even gonna be close.

It's not a playoff game.

 

[ffldrew]

What a bail out penalty

 

[Card Trader]

Well that's game.

 

[jurb26]

This might be over at halftime.

 

[Card Trader]

The only positive(and I'm stretching here) is that Bowles shot at a HC job may dwindle with this Ds meltdown late this year. Want to keep him in AZ with Washington + Dockett coming back next year.

 

[jurb26]

This is pathetic. It's like watching a high school offense when Arz has the ball.

 

[sho nuff]

The crappy punt technique finally worked.

Stupid by the returner

 

[Card Trader]

The punt was over 30 yards so it surprised the returner

 

[IHEARTFF]

what a #######

 

[The General]

Nice play #######. Was he fielding a grounder?

 

[Synergy]

How stupid can someone be?

 

[rockaction]

Uh, if you're not going to field it, run away from it??? That's terrible, but great for those of us who want a game.

 

[jurb26]

Arz will need a bunch of those breaks in this game.

 

[Harris]

What an idiot. Didn't even try to use his hands.

 

[rockaction]

This offense really is painful to watch right now, and Carolina should be putting this game away. Instead...

 

[The General]

What a call.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Car with brutal mental mistakes

 

[ffldrew]

Bail out calls are even

 

[IHEARTFF]

What a call.

Bail out calls are even

Uh, that call was more than fine there.

 

[jurb26]

Car has no respect for Lindley passing.

 

[Darryl Talley]

Wide open. Juuuuuust missed him.

 

[Khy]

What a call.

Bail out calls are even

Uh, that call was more than fine there.

Eh, disagree. Call was a little rough, not completely incomprehensible but definitely not an easy call.

That said... seriously, did Arians promise this return guy for Carolina a multi-million dollar deal next year? Or was that simply one of the worst playoff chokes I've seen in recent memory? He forgot what sport he was playing and literally tried to play the ball like a catcher trying to stop the ball from getting past him.

 

[jurb26]

Car has no respect for Lindley passing.

I guess that's why. Fitz wide open in the end zone and he misses him by a country mile.
