    The "good" news is the Cardinals would have won the toss in either scenario.

    Why is this escaping people?

    And fuck, Rogers... he got the reflip and, since it was not a call-it-in-the-air situation, his original call stands.

    Again another person who doesn't seem to get it...Rodgers calls the flip opposite of the way the coin is laying in the refs hand. As you seen on the first flip Rodgers was eyeballing the coin like no ones business and you seen the coin did not rotate at all so he complained. If you are going to reflip the coin because of the refs error then you damn sure better let the vistors remake their call. The NFL will come out and tell you this was an error by the official and that he was wrong which will mean that you are wrong as well.

    Blaming the loss on the coin toss is silly.

    It was a good game, Cards won because they're the better team despite the fact Carson had some bad red zone moments (overthrew probable TD pass, interception)

    I wasnt blaming...but im sure it will be a story to pine on in GB.

    No complaining about the toss in GB...it's not the reason we lost.

    What you'll hear in GB is plenty of frustration since it's the second time in a row we've outplayed the home team in the playoffs and lost.

  • If GB wanted to win, they should have put a man on Fitzgerald. He was as open as a WR can be. They deserved to lose.

    Not sure GB outplayed AZ. If Palmer doesn't have a bad day in the red zone then there wouldn't be any overtime

    I really don't care that much, it was a good game I just don't see the cardinals as getting outplayed really.

    Yeah well he didn't pick them and green bay lost

  • Anyone else hear Chris Colinsworth totally blowing Rodgers at the end of that game. Even gave him credit for having the focus to call out bad coin toss.

    "We are Americans. We don't quit doing something because it's wrong. We just keep doing the wrong thing till it turns out right." Browns maybe the most American Football team ever.

    While you admitted you were wrong it looks pretty stupid to call someone out as wrong without remotely knowing the facts..

    That's all well and good, but it has nothing to do with what I was saying....the argument was that there would have been no overtime if Palmer had a better day in the redzone, to which I countered that the Cardinals would have scored 10 points if Sam Shields hadn't dropped three picks. Neither of those statements changes the fact that GB outplayed Arizona...

  • They didn't outplay Arizona clearly. Sam Shields didn't have three picks. While A-a-Ron threw a beautiful and improbable td to force overtime odds are at least 7 of 10 times that ball isn't even caught and green bay doesn't have the opportunity to go to overtime and lose on the first possession.
