He wasn't the star of this game, but I'm not afraid to say that I love me some Danny woodhead!! I always expect something good when he touches the ball.

Yeah, I miss Woodhead. He's one of the better backs I've seen at running out of the shotgun.

Definitely wish the Pats still had Woodhead.

Wow. Didn't realize it was that close. Cool link.

During the game last night it seemed like it took forever to get that kick off. I just saw the player coming from that side and I was like Nooooooooooooooo YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!

[Golfingdad]

I guess you didn't notice that Reid ran out of timeouts at the end when he really needed them, even calling his last one right after the two minute warning. How can you not be ready after the two minute warning? Even Mayock pointed out that it is his MO. The guy sucks on gameday and he can't adjust when things go south. If KC fans haven't figured it out yet, they will soon enough. Lotta heartbreak for the hometeam fans follows Andy Reid around.

Yeah, he has a reputation of being bad with clock management, and it was on perfect display at that point.  I mean, seriously??  You just had a timeout for the 2 minute warning to get everybody on the same page, and you only have one timeout remaining!!  He's probably not even considering that they won't get the first down there, but he's the head coach ... he has to!!  If they had that timeout, at least they'd get the ball back with a chance (assuming that they could stop 3 consecutive runs up the middle).  A tiny one, sure, because there will only be 30 seconds left or so for you to go the length of the field.  But still, what the heck Andy Reid??

Great game to watch though!!

Yeah, but it loses it's luster and excitement when I heard that the Packers (and that guy in particular) were flagged for offsides on that play.  Even if he had blocked it, they would have had a chance to re-kick from 5 yards closer.

Still a great game.  Love the look of the dormant grass too.

As a Chargers fan, everything about this weekend was perfect.  3 fantastic, nail-biter games, but yours wasn't one of them!  Your team won going away ... save the heart attack for next weekend!!

I thought for sure it was going to get blocked seeing how fast that guy was coming. But hey, it's a game of inches and that just proves it.

[RonTheSavage]

Ok so offsides was called? I missed that somehow. Too busy screaming I guess LOL. `

I guess you missed the above post and the news.  He was offside.  That's how he got to it so fast.

It's pretty amazing that only one home team won, and even then, the Colts being that deep in a hole should have lost. But overall, wild card weekend was pretty thrilling.

I never actually saw it, because it didn't matter, but I read it somewhere yesterday.

I actually didn't hear about that until early this morning on the commute to work. Once the kick was made and through, I turned it off quickly to attend to fatherly duties.

It was poorly maintained with dead patches everywhere! :D

Sorry Kansas City...you didn't lose because of Andy Reid or injuries, you lost because Cleveland has Indy's 1st round pick, so you guys got our luck by default. Because of this, the Colts will be your Super Bowl champs despite being a mediocre team with no run game and a weak defense.

Disappointed that the Eagles didn't advance, considering it was a home game. I think they would have represented well against the Panthers and then who knows? San Francisco would have gone to Seattle, where they could easily win, and the Eagles could have had an NFC championship game at home. Wishful thinking, but stranger things have happened. Kelly just wasn't ready for Sean Payton. The guy threw a major curve with the running attack. Still, not a bad season for a guy who has never coached a down in the NFL and took over a floundering 4-12 team.  Live and learn.

And the Birds need a new kicker badly. Henery is the only kicker who missed a FG this weekend (in what was a two point game) and he has been killing the Eagles, giving up poor field position with his poor kickoffs all season. That last one was a killer and probably cost them the game.

Another thing Reid did totally in character was fall in love with the passing game again at an inopportune time. They ran the ball effectively in the first half, they had a 28 point lead with 8-9 minutes left in the third quarter, and he gets pass happy. Threw the ball 26 times in the second half, plus two sacks. The Dude outsmarts himself constantly. Run the ball, kill the clock, but nooooo, not Andy. I was LOL the whole second half.

Gotta like Andrew Luck's resiliance though. Not many QB's would come back from those killer mistakes.

Um...Jamaal Charles and Knile Davis both went down. He was relying on Cyrus Gray, his 3rd RB who had all of 9 carries this year for 24 yards. Really gonna fault Reid for getting pass happy in that situation?
