That's the problem with it going your way all year. You lose perspective of risk. In a regular-season game where you can live another day you might take that risk. But after a turnover were you just went down 7-0 when you should have been up 7-0 I don't think you roll the dice on your side of the field. It really changed the whole dynamic of the game. Not to take anything away from Tennessee, I thought they played great.

There is some barbecue sauce coming back up in Kansas City right about now.

I predict that the Seahawks Packers game will be really boring compared to this game.

For sure. I hope the Chiefs beat the Titans, if the Titans win it will likely be a boring SB. 24 degrees in Green Bay right now so not bad, but a chance of snow...if conditions get rough Wilson and the Beast might have to run a lot, could be a brutal, slug it out type of game.

Im predicting Titans Vs. the 69'ers. I certainly hope the Titans win! The Hawks simply have to many injuries to have much of a chance.

Had a chance but can't drop passes in the clutch.

The loss is disappointing, but not unexpected given all the injuries this season. Salt in the wound was Jimmy Graham catching three passes including the back breaker to end the game.

That, and not being able to stop them on 3rd downs. Well, at least they went down fighting, but it was too little to late, seems they always are playing from behind, this time they ran out of time. Still a very successful season. Was awesome seeing the Griffin twins sack Rodgers and Lynch scoring on two tough TD runs. I think we got robbed on that TD run by GB in the first half, pretty sure the ball didn't break the plane.

Well they certainly had an exciting season. Wilson had pretty much a one man show in the 4th pretty making. Defense as usual was the problem GB just got to many 3rd down conversions, so it goes. Marshawn tried but is not the 20 something he once was like all of us. It is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.

Hopefully Carson and Penny can both make a full recovery. Not sure why the pass D was so poor this year.

I keep hearing about a lot of people who blame Norton. Not sure if that's the case, they have been working with a patchwork secondary for a couple years now since losing Sherman, Kam, and Earl.

IMO, not enough pass rush pressure on the QB for starters. Also, without a unique, speedy safety like Earl Thomas, the Hawks had to play cover 2 defense rather than cover 1. Earl covered a lot of territory and allowed the other safety to come up into the box for run stopping or potential blitzes. Playing two safeties back helped take away corner and side routes but ultimately creates a zone in the middle where assignments are less clear. The Hawks got torched again and again this season by drag routes and by backs and tight ends giving a token block, then drifting out in the middle. Also staying in base defense with 3 LBs created some speed issues - LBs couldn't keep up. That was a telling sign how little trust the coaches had in the current DBs in nickel situations let alone even attempting dime defenses.
