That's probably a record of some type - the two kicks stuffs in one playoff game. SF's defense and special teams won the game. The SF quarterback three zero touchdowns. The only touchdown from SF happened when I looked away (I caught the replay a little while later) and that's when they stuffed another kick and ran it in for a touchdown.
SF's defense is legit good, from what I saw last night.
At the same time, y'all had no business losing the game with SF's atrocious offense.
It was actually a pretty exciting game to watch. The wife has no fucking clue what is going on, so she was less than interested. It was not a good game for explaining the rules.
Also, there weren't many penalties. I don't even recall a coach throwing the red challenge flag once during the game. If they did, I missed it.
And GB fans will boo damned near anything. They'll even boo an obviously good call against their team. Like, come on! You saw the same thing the refs saw. The penalty was well called!
there was something wrong in that game but it's over now and nothing is ever going to be the same up here with the team after that debacle
On the other hand, and I don't think even GB fans can argue, it was a very entertaining/interesting game. It was full of drama. Until the very end, you weren't sure who was going to win.
As a SF fan (that hasn't watched a single game this season), I was amazed by SF's defense and special teams.
In all of football, how often is it that the game is so dominated by plays made by the special teams?
Special teams win games all the time, but in that game they were influential for the whole thing. Again, SF didn't throw for a single touchdown.
Shit, how many times in a season is a kick blocked for a touchdown?
The GB special teams are the worst in the league and have been all season long. The GB defense really held up their end of the bargain not allowing SF to do much of anything except the game winning FG. The Packers are usually much better on offense than they were last night, credit SF defense for that.
I did mention during the game to my son that it was a drama filled affair
