God and Russell Wilson
I got a big kick out of it last year when the Seahawks played badly against the Packers in the NFCCG and then Russell Wilson turned into a crying weirdo who kept proclaiming how God was testing him and all that. Maybe God is just sick of the Packers. Or maybe Russell forgot to say his daily amount of prayer on Sunday so God laughed at him for a full half and then teased him in the second like a jerk. Whatever the case was, thank goodness we won’t have any Pats/Hawks rematch in the bowl. That would have been an awful end to this year even if the game was good.
That Seahawks game was crazy. The Panthers looked like gods themselves in that first quarter. They ate Russell up. Cam’s pass to Greg Olsen was a thing of beauty. They just put the pedal down and ran over the Hawks. Then they almost pulled a tortoise and the hare and took a nap while the Seahawks marched up the scoreboard. Russell almost cried from joy all over again. But I guess 31 points is pretty tough to overcome. It got pretty scary for a bit there though. The Panthers have gone through this season with swagger and confidence but they keep getting uncomfortably close to having it all fall apart. I’d be kind of nervous as a fan. That’s the 4th(?) time this season the Panthers almost gave up a huge lead by appearing to get lazy. The Colts forced overtime with 17 4th quarter points. The Packers and Giants also both gave them a big scare late. I would have said whoever won Panthers/Hawks was going to probably win the Super Bowl, but now I’m not so sure. Pride comes before a fall. Of course the Cardinals looked a little off this past weekend too, needing a few miracles to win and giving up a few miracles themselves. This will be a good game.
Also Making a Murderer is good and depressing if you have Netflix watch it.
It was a matchup of the two teams with bs magic powers and it was great.
My wish of Cam stiff arming Richard Sherman didn’t come true this weekend, but I’m glad the Panthers made a statement and bitch slapped the Seahawks back into their place. Talent and physical gifts can trump luck and scheme, and the Panthers showed everyone what I thought all along: the seahawks didn’t deserve to be in this game. That trail of pixie dust following that team around finally ended.
My worst nightmare is that the Broncos go to the superbowl and face the Panthers and we have to watch another Manning meltdown like 2013
I have a feeling the Patriots won’t let that happen…
If the Broncos win on Sunday, the Super Bowl will be another bloodbath like the one two years ago.
I disagree. The Broncos in 2013 were injured and the John Fox regime was under the whole “next man up” philosophy. This meant that the only players with experience were the ones who played every down. By the time the Super Bowl came up, 11 starters were out and you had 11 players who barely played all year.
Under Kubiak, however, everyone on the team has played at least 30% of the snaps all year. IF the Broncos make it, it would be a drastically different team than 2013 regardless of injuries.
So, what you’re saying is that Manning will have to find a brand new way to choke?
Pats have to get out of Mile High Hell first. 2-6 in that stadium, 0-2 in the postseason. Brady’s only been able to beat Kanell and Tebow in this stadium, and no matter how old Manning is he’s a step up from those quarterbacks.
of course, as per the panthers’ MO, the broncos will score 28 unanswered in the second half only to discover that they trailed by 29 and it will all end on a Peyton Manning(tm) Wounded Duck(tm) Brought to You By Nationwide(tm)
Would hardly call it a bitch slap considering it was almost the 2nd best comeback in NFL history for the Seahawks. Both teams have the pixie dust, those pics weren’t happening the entire season until that game. Panthers have the talent but played too defensively in the 2nd half and I’d blame the coaching on that one.
But the Panthers are healthy and almost everyone else isn’t and it is easy to exploit that now… I don’t expect it to hold together next year because of that.
What if when Wilson thought he was hearing the voice of god, it was just a subpar white rapper trespassing on his property the whole time?
look at that bad man with a lot more time to get his smoothie on…
Just as a weird side note, Mike Halbach, the brother of Theresa in “Making a Murderer” is actually employed by the Packers.
The Saints got really close to beating Carolina, I think it was Mark Ingram doing an excessive celebration that messed it up.
I also like that Tortoise and Hare reference, pretty descriptive of that game.
Also, I think God hating the Packers is a little hint that Aaron Rodgers might be gay. I always thought of him to be the Freddie Mercury of football. Not that there’s anything wrong with that!
That sounds silly
Man I’m glad I’m agnostic. But what does that matter?
enough for you to post about it evidently
oh wow, a webcomic being anti-christian… that’s so edgy and unusual.
