[QUOTE="weeds, post: 1025570, member: 39"] You and me, both. It'll be an interesting SB if that comes to fruition. Along the same vein, it'll be fun watching two "after-the-whistle-type" teams gouging away at each other. I have to say that I can't remember being as proud of a Packers team as I am of this group of guys - and even though I can only remember bits and pieces of the '67-'68 team (I would have been 10 years old), these guys MADE me like and remember them. I'm sure they'll be gratified to know I said that. That an entire irritating season with really .. ZERO expectations at the outset, ends THIS way, doesn't surprise me. It breaks my heart for these young guys. I'm not talking about the relative average age of the team here, they're all young guys. However, even before the game I could think of no reason that the Pack wouldn't win - except for the nagging mental image of a FG sailing wide - and lo and behold, these guys were on the cusp of legend and didn't (notice I did not say couldn't) produce. I just want to add one singular GET OFF MY LAWN oriented old guy comment. In the playoffs, you take points. Now granted, when you have a wobbly-legged rookie, you play the averages ... but, you take the points and put them on the board. (This doesn't apply to video games though). Defense is a mixed bag of "f--- around" in my book ... they're not closers, just refuse the slam the damned door. Barry can't put stickem on 26's hands to be sure but these little things when taken in the cumulative made the ending somewhat predictable. Thus, the 2023-24 season will forever be titled "Missed and unused opportunities". Niners wanted to give the Pack this game, the Pack were all too willing to refuse delivery. [/QUOTE]
