Dallas is going to fucking smash us anyways, Suh wont change shit.


Without Suh, prob. But with Suh we match up really well against Dallas.

Even if we beat Cowboys

We travel to Seattle

Then we'd travel to Green Bay

Then we'd be in super bowl

Lol

That's one stupid impossible super bowl


This is prob true. But there is a chance we could go against Arizona or Carolina instead of GB again.

much better offensive line and the NFL leading rusher is a better matchup than Green Bay and Eddie Lacy & Co. whom your "#1 Run Defense" conceded over 150 rushing yards and a score

doesn't know how playoffs work :(

/e

The number 1 seed will host the worst surviving seed from the first round (seed 4, 5 or 6), while the number 2 seed will play the other team (seed 3, 4 or 5)

Ok. You picked out one week where we didn't do well.
However, even with last week we still have the lowest rushing YPG, have allowed the smallest "Large run (35 yards)", and only 8 tds on the season.

In week 3, we held both Starks & Lacy to under 80 yards.
In week 7, we held Mark Ingram to 16 yards and the Saints to 60 yards total.
In week 9, we held Lamar Miller to 10 yards and the Dolphins to under 60 yards total.
In week 10, we held Andre Ellington to 42 yards and the Cardinals to 50 yards total.
In week 11, we held the Patriots to under 100 yards total.
In week 12, we held Matt Forte to 6 yards rushing, 58 yards total.
In week 16, we held Matt Forte to 55 yards rushing, under 100 yards total.

So yes. Our defense does match up well against teams who run the ball. We obviously didn't think that would be your game plan last week, and we didn't adjust. Bad on us. But if we have Suh this Sunday, we match up very well against a run first Dallas team.

And make no mistake... Green Bay played a good game last week but Detroit beat Detroit.

Ok. You picked 1 week out of the last 5... aka over the last month and that was against a Jimmy Clausen-led Bears team. Talk about riding the achievements in the first 2/3 of the season. Playoffs are about how you're playing NOW... not how you played on November 23rd.

so then why were they talking about the Lions going back to GB if they beat Dallas? I'm going off of what they said on fox and how they had the graphic. Which had Seattle taking the remaining highest seed and GB taking the remains lowest seed...I could be wrong but I'm going off of how it was talked about on fox post game
