2017 NFC Playoff Thread

Let's trust a wr to make a throw and not hofer Drew Brees. So what if he was wide open. It's still lower then a coin flip play. This isn't high school.

Jacksonville may be the best built team in the NFL.....has nothing to do with Blake Bortles. He's basically playing the Trent Dilfer role. Jacksonville is LOADED!

Yeah whatever. . They were good and then bad for years and now good again ..
Lions have had the same top draft picks and trajectory for years and still have one playoff win in 50+ years with the highest paid qb in the nfl. Pathetic . You can thank Tom Coughlin For also. Wish we could hit on every free agent lol..

Everyone on this board is aware we haven't drafted well.......well........ever. You're not shining a light on it.

You keep wanting to blame Stafford for everything. These games should show you WITHOUT A DOUBT that building a good team with a solid running game and a good defense is the best way to playoff success. Not the only way.....but the best way.

Well built or not, going from 3-13 to the AFC Championship is ridiculous. I would imagine that has probably happened no more than like 5 times in the history of the NFL. Usually it's a couple seasons from a season that bad before you contend. Lions seem to be allergic to those types of turnarounds, or I guess, ANY type of turnaround.
 
Jax focused on building their defense... much of it rebuilt when gus Bradley was there. Meanwhile we kept trading up to pick 2nd rd rbs and top 10 MUNs that did squat in the league.

I've never blamed stafford...But he is paid a lot of money to win more games and make guys better.. he does that we'll enough but not good enough for playoff wins.
Hopefully next year.
