First ever Rookie QB starting a playoff game for Oakland ( Conner Cook), Raiders down 2o-7 late 3rd.
Raiders barely over 100 yards total offense. Coop just missed/dropped pass for big gain.

Cooper 1 catch for 1 yard :eyeroll:

Yeah Cook not getting a lot of help.

Now we have video evidence of why we don't see that situation more often. Hope the second game has a pluse.

Oakland lost starting QB, than lost back up QB. Cook problem still has those Bama guys in his head.

Figured Dallas/Green Bay winner would represent NFC in super bowl but Falcons got me reconsidering. I know Seattle not the same team on road but Matt Ryan is playing as well as Aaron Rogers but with more weapons. Just hope Julio can stay on the field.

 

[Bamabww]

Yeah, Falcons playing really good.

Clowney finally putting it all together, he's having an impressive year.

LG certainly didn't do his job there. To me it looks like he was too focused on getting outside for the block in the second level and didn't chip Clowney enough.

For the first time this year, I'm truly impressed with the Falcons and especially the defense that didn't just hold up but dominated in many situations. The Falcons have the deserved reputation of being built for the regular season, but if they insist on playing this level of defense along with what looks like a running game that can be counted on in the red zone and short yardage, I'm in.

The marquee matchup this weekend, Dallas/Green Bay is gonna be a goodie. Dallas will be tough to beat at home, BUT, if they somehow can't hang on and the Packers pull it out then Atlanta plays at home next week. Nice consolation prize, for me anyway.

 

[EasyTider]

Aaron Rodgers is not human.

 

[TUSKtimes]

Super Bowl going through Atlanta. Roll Falcons Roll!!

 

[planomateo]

They need to ban icing the kicker.

When that 2nd kick left the foot there was no way it looked good. It straightened out like someone was guiding it.

I smell a conspiracy. Actually, number 89 never broke out of a fast trot all the way across the field without even one defender even trying to cover him on 4th and 20. That's the one that smelled kinda rotten to me.

It was an ugly win, but it's still a win. STEELERS!

Will be pulling against your team, as they are the only damned one left, with no chance of getting a former Bama player(s) a Super Bowl ring.

I fully get it. Tomlin is a terrible coach in the draft. If we're going to lose this weekend, I hope it's because Hightower crushes Bell.
