Monday Night Football - Open Thread
Two of the best young quarterbacks in football, Aaron Rodgers and Joe Flacco, face two of the best defenses in football, Green Bay and Baltimore. Both teams are contending for a wildcard spot. There's no bad blood or tacky media hype, just meaningful football. How boring.

Boring indeed.
Perhaps ‘less’ boring as each team is missing star defensive players.
There ain't no turning back when our train is off its track, and there's nothing we can do but watch it crash (watch it crash)
And there ain't no right and wrong when we know it won't be long, and there's nothing we can do but watch it crash

Before talking about Clay Matthews' footballin attributes
Millen tells us about Clay’s mustache and his hair looking like his father’s.
ME! BANE!
I always thought Alex Smith and Rodgers looked identical

The demise of the Broncos in '09 is our future. Pray hard.
Subject line please.
Oh and you can tell the guy to Matthews’ right is wanting a piece of his ass.
ME! BANE!
ZBIKOWSKI WITH THE WHITE MAN HUSTLE INTERCEPTION!
Brian Russell’s lone Seahawks INT was like that.
ME! BANE!
This is some bad football for two teams battling for the playoffs.
Throwing bombs into triple coverage.
Is this A J Hawk's Father?

I want to think this is a good defensive game.
Between two great defenses.
But this is a crap game thus far.
ME! BANE!
Gruden actually treats syllables as sentences.
THIS GUY HAL. OTI. NGA. TA. IS. A. GREAT. IN. TER. IOR. LINE. MAN!
ME! BANE!
Chuck it up and Finley gets the touchdown over Zbikowski on the fade.
Really really dim playoff hopes fading…
ME! BANE!
That was the second play in that game
that was pure, incredibly luck by NO. And for some reason I can’t remember the first. But ya, New Orleans got very lucky in that game.
Also, watching Brees stiff arm a defender straight into the dirt is funny.
Heh
They showed the highlight of Mare missing the 34 yard FG in the barrage of missed short FGs by kickers.
Guess who hasn’t missed since?
ME! BANE!
You have to let them have a little contact
I didn’t see clear pushing off there. He had the leverage.
ME! BANE!
It's defensible PI
But the thing is, if you whistle every little jostle – which is technically what you should do – you get this kind of ballgame. Which is why refs shouldn’t.
Go go Pack D. Goalline stand!

He just did it again!
Gotta say, even in a bad game like this, I do love the Pack D. Not an easy team to play against.

He's awesome
But he is up against Brian Cushing, who has been nothing short of awesome either.
