If they win Brett owes him dinner.

Not that the NYG are overpowering, I guess I’m used to seeing more dominance by the division winners...
An INT followed by a fumble recovery — fun game!

Man, sometimes lucky is better than good.

The only way that was weirder is if Brett forced or recovered the fumble.

I never understood these idiot defensive backs who run with the ball like they are running backs.

Reminds me of the play Troy Brown made last year against SD in the divisional playoff game.

Looks like it is about to be a tie game.

These are the parity days, the any given Sunday days, once you get to the divisional round, and especially the conference finals, the hard core whippings are pretty much a thing of the past.

Field Goal - Tie game 20-20.
Hey Green Bay, how about actually playing a little Defense for a change?

That might have been so in the early 1980s but in 2002, the NFL changed their tie-breaking rules which basically means that a team taking a knee when they have opportunity to score more points may be screwing themselves out of home field advantage in the playoffs later on down the road. I will give that point. Good point.
But the bottom line is that there is really no such thing as "running up the score" in pro football.
I do not agree - but your statement is not "incorrect" - there is value in class - if you are up by two or three scores late in the game, you gain nothing by running up more score - although this is a fine detail and very rarely an issue.
In all aspects of life - class is always valuable

There has only been two conference title games that have gone to overtime.
