NFCN: All one-and-done

[StickierBuns]

The mighty NFCN pissed down its leg in the playoffs. Enjoyed watching Meathead get his ass handed to him last night, especially delicious. Also have to chuckle as Chicago watches who they should have drafted instead of Caleb Williams. Misery loves company and the Vikings are joined in it by the whole division. I'm positive Lion Nation had already punched their Super Bowl ticket....the Great Lakes taste a bit salty with tears this morning, they come up empty with two great teams the last two years. Goff continues to be lesser than in the biggest games. 

"Goff is now 4-5 in the playoffs dating to his years with the Rams, who traded him to Detroit after Los Angeles coach Sean McVay apparently decided that Goff wasn't capable of winning it all. The Lions may be thinking the same thing after Saturday night. The Lions appear married to Goff, however, after they signed him to a four-year extension last offseason. "

How much of the norths dominant records is a result of getting the afc south to pad the win column? They can only play who they schedule, but that was basically 4 free wins for the north teams that showed up to play.

It was really depressing to see Washington move the ball so easily against them knowing that our offense had the ability to do the same thing. That game is exactly how our game should have gone. We can talk about the OL or Darnold, but the difference is that Washingon's game plan was specifically designed to attack their weaknesses, while we just played the same game we did all year. Instead of dropping Daniels deep in the pocket and waiting for routes to develop, giving their rushers a chance to attack, they threw a lot of quick passes, lots of slants, which never gave their DL a chance to have an impact. They attacked the secondary, which they knew their WRs could beat off the line of scrimmage. We could have done the same thing. Really poor game planning and absolutely no adjustments on our part.

Lions picked the wrong night to turn the ball over 5 times, 4 by Goff. Packers? I think they are frauds tbh. Vikings? Our D did it with tape, spit, smoke and mirrors and BFlo. Offense, it was luck most of the way for Darnold. KOC in his hear right up till the mic cut off telling him what to do, where to go. Then the big stage arrived and it fell apart. I am ready for the JJM era to begin!

All McCarthy did was hand off the ball at Michigan in his  only close game in the national championship game  - He was absolutely horrendous
