wow, what a game. I have no idea what the Saints were trying at the end.

Aside from the insanely illegal trick pass play with Brees tossing it forward from about three yards ahead of the line of scrimmage?

Well thats the good game for the weekend.

Holy shit! Such a great game!

jeffd · 2012-01-14T17:18:28.000Z

That was a freaking amazing game.

Who is this Brady guy? What has he ever done? I need more details about Tebow! CBS is blowing this broadcast.

Great game. Tough and hard fought on both sides. Now hopefully the Giants can prove they’re not pretenders and beat Green Bay so the Niners will have home field advantage.

It’s crazy how that went from a sloppy first quarter to a compelling comeback to OMG WHAT IS HAPPENING in the last few minutes. It was like three different playoff games in one.

I’m bummed that we’re not going to get the NO/GB championship game I was hoping for all year, but you can’t say SF didn’t earn it. They played awesome defense, causing all those turnovers in the first half, and when their offense had to make big plays at the end, they did. Great performance.

Oh hey, 7-0 Pats. Off and running!

Instant Classic.

I hate ESPN for making me think of that term, but damn if that game wasn’t the very definition of it.

Thongsy · 2012-01-14T17:21:21.000Z

Flip over to the New England game and it’s already 7-0. Going to be a long night for the Broncos.

Hammet · 2012-01-14T17:22:25.000Z

Now someone explain to me why the entire Niner secondary is not in the Pro Bowl. That’s the best damn pass coverage and ball stripping I’ve seen in like, forever.

Let me all assure you that beneath all this I am insanely bitter.

:(

Fun season, though.

MrGrumpy · 2012-01-14T17:29:40.000Z

Best. Game. Ever.
Wow, it’s a shame someone had to lose.

Uncle_Larry · 2012-01-14T17:31:26.000Z

The bigger shame is that someone was the Saints.

Forget the built-in homerism here for a moment - who’s gonna stop GB? Besides nobody, I mean.

I agree. Fantastic game.

The Giants.

The Giants.

I want to believe, but no.

Wow, what was Brady looking at there?
