What the heck is "additional footage?"
I don't have a favorite NFL team but I'd love to see Lazard play in a Super Bowl.
One of Pete Carroll's throwback techniques from USC.
Seriously I've never heard of that as an option.
GB was owed that call at the end from that horse sh*t fumble recovery they had deep in Seattle's territory in the 1st qtr that they said they couldn't determine who recovered it when the Packer player clearly covered it up AND also came out of the pile with it.
I'm a HUGE Packer fan, but IMO they will get destroyed by SF.

Maybe it's like golf now where someone in the crowd can send in their video footage? Just kidding of course, but wouldn't be surprised if someday it came down to that.
I think they almost had to punt when Wilson took that sack. With 3 timeouts and the 2 minute warning, it’s hard to justify going for 4th and 16 or whatever that was.
And imo it seemed like Lazard's OPI was ticky-tack.
I think it was around 4th and 10. And I know conventional wisdom says punt but as a Bears fan I've seen it too many times.
If they’re going to call that then I would figure they’d have to call Allison for the same on Graham’s game sealing catch. He was hooked on the defender and pulling him down the field. Glad they didn’t though, and hopefully Allen gets to play next week.
Yeah I see far worse things pretty much all the time in every game from both defender and receiver.
IDK about "destroyed". LaFleur has made some subtle adjustments as the season has gone on - Adams' first touchdown, for example - and I would imagine they will be determined to not post another performance like that.
Early line is 7, if I were a betting man I'd take GB to cover.
And you are 100% right about that fumble recovery (which it clearly was!), except that it occurred at the Seattle 40.
Everyone everywhere says the Chiefs should dump Watkins and I agree. Save $14M and only carry a $7M dead cap hit. But I did see someone promote an idea other than JUST CUT HIM. They said negotiate with Watkins and convert a lot of next year's salary into a signing bonus and extend him a year or two. Spread the money out and hope he enjoys being on a contender at a good price rather than somewhere like Jacksonville at a who-knows price.
Styles make fights. The Titans are red hot right now. I think it'll be a really good game if Tennessee can string together a few long drives and force a turnover or two.
I am rooting for Green Bay and Kansas City next week. This likely means it will be San Francisco and Tennessee in the Super Bowl.
LaFleur needs to gameplan similar to what he did Sunday against the 49ers - use quick passes in rhythm, don't let that front 7 get all up in Rodgers' face. And I'd bet Pettine comes out with both Martinez and Goodson in the box to begin with, he doesn't want Shanahan sticking that run game up his a$$ for 60 minutes like he did to Minnesota.
