Green Bay completes 2 passes over the middle.

NO TIMEOUT CALLED.

NOT ONE LOL. Clock runs. Rodgers runs out of bounds with 35 seconds left, still has 3 timeouts left. Why not call them earlier?

Another LOL @ McCarthy not calling timeout when seattle completed a pass. With 3 timeouts. Luckily Lynch scored instantly so it didn't matter but still shows another one of his great skills, clock management in the endgame.

And then he calls a timeout to kick a field goal with 19 seconds left, instead of waiting until the clock is down to 4...

If GB loses McCarthy would probably get fired on the spot if they had an owner...

Wonder how much the odds for "Pats to win the SB" have moved during this game.

Very little I'd imagine, given that Seattle won. Probably if it moved it is because they will definitely be facing Seattle so they are less likely to win than when they had a shot to be playing GB.

The market is not going to move against a team when the best team in the league gives up 5 turnovers and wins.

Seahawks have been pretending they can't throw the ball all season just so they could fool GB in overtime. GG.

Haha I was actually thinking of linking that but couldn't remember where I read it. Oh well everyone will always attribute certain things to made up narratives. The narrative on this will probably be how clutch Wilson is even though he played terribly and shat the bed and then reverted to his normal play at the end, which people will see as "clutch."

Nice stat FOX: Last QB to win a playoff game with 4+ INTs: George Blanda, Oilers vs. Chargers, 1961.

Speaking of 1961, Patriots have 3 WRs and 5 RBs active for this game. Gonna stomp the Colts into the ground!

Haha, well their main/best receiver is a TE, and another of their best receivers is a RB so I think they'll be doing some passing even though that's pretty funny :P

Congrats to Adam Vinatieri on making first team All-Pro. Really too bad the Pats only have the 2nd best kicker...

Thanks, Mike Tomlin. We couldn't have done this without you.

Quick guys, I need some advice. Should I go to sleep or enjoy this victory for another quarter? It's 3:25 AM here.

So, do we take Brady out for the final 10 minutes? Not related to not running up the score, but to protect the 37yo QB?

Brady, Edelman, Gronk, Revis, none of them should be playing anymore.

Instead, Blount and Vollmer have been subbed out.
