Yea...

I looked this up too.

This should end the "Guys without giant hands cant play well in cold weather" argument.

To take it one step further... Mahomes' hand measured at 9.25 Inches... same as Jimmy G. Mahomes has been to more super bowls by age 26 than ole donkey-hands Rodgers.

Hand size argument is pretty odd. But when arguing for Rodgers and against Brady you need something. I like the meme where it compares the two and under Rodgers it says hosted Jeopardy and has a NBA championship

Where’s the poll? These always have one

[2010GBPackers]

Let me guess, you're getting your info on cold-weather games from articles where it's 29-degrees or less? Haha! That ain't cold weather my friends. Single digits is cold weather - everything above that is tropical. That's how I knew the Packers were done for in the NFC Championship game last season. It was a balmy 28-30 degrees at kickoff. People don't wear coats in WI when it's in the 30's.

With these boards being so slow lately, gotta bring some entertainment to liven this place up!

Lighten up a little bit. Some of you are a little too tense.

Right?! Just like how Favre used to have the Lambeau mystique until he didn't. Rodgers is good and he'd be good if his hand shrunk half an inch. Brock Osweiler could have 13 inch hands and still be a contract dump.

uhhhhhhhhh

Poll: Which college is best represented with the remaining playoff teams?

1. Clamson
2. Kentucky
3. The ASU
4. Michigan/Michigan State (same school, different campuses?!)
5. The OSU
6. Georgia/Jawjah

Titans over Bengals - Tennessee finally seems mostly healthy, and if Trey Hendrickson can't clear concussion protocol, the Bengals have a massive uphill battle. Titans are a hard team to read, but I think this one will be a fun shoot-out.

Bills over Chiefs - Probably going to be wrong here since Tom Brady is the only QB to ever beat Mahomes in the playoffs, but the Bills look really good. They have the guys on defense to make some plays, plus if they can run the ball like they did last week? Might be Josh Allen's season.

Bucs over Rams - Aaron Donald goes to jail for trying to choke Tom Brady and Tampa Bay wins by double digits. The only time I'm picking against Tom in the playoffs is when my Packers bias is involved.

Packers over 49ers - I actually have a hunch that Trey Lance plays into this one quite a bit; and if he doesn't, he should. Garoppolo has a messed up thumb and a bum shoulder. Packers exorcise the Raheem Mostert demos from two years ago, the Niners have to throw 30+ times, and Green Bay sets up a rematch.

Time for the Aaron Rodgers revenge tour where he takes out the Niners (2019), the Bucs (2020), and the Chiefs (who he had to miss this year because COVID). Or something like that.

Hand size argument is about as valid as post count.

[blackbears86]

My pics:

Titans over Bengals: The Bengals are just too banged up on the line. If DH is even 75%, it will be a long day for the Bengals.

Bills over Chiefs: Hate to pick Bills here, but Sean Mcdermott has figured it out: Run Josh Allen: ALOT, and sprinkle in just enough of everything else. Rinse and repeat.

Rams over Bucs: Better defense? Rams. Better offense? Rams. Better QB? The GOAT. But even Tommy can't overcome all the Tampa injuries.

Pack over 49ers: This is where the ghosts of Raheem Mostert are exercised. (220 yds in the playoffs vs Pack previously) It will be close at halftime, but Pack cover the spread.

All this big hand talk...

I hope the Rams win. I am excited for the playoffs.

What injuries do the Bucs have outside of Godwin and now Wirfs more than likely? Fournette should be back and everyone else seems to be healthy. The Rams are the last team I wanted to see, but I don’t think injuries are going to be a huge part of this.

Their best lineman, All-Pro Wirfs, suffered a high ankle sprain against the Eagle's and is unlikely to play. That's huge. Their backup tackle came in and also got hurt. Their Pro Bowl center Jensen also sprained his ankle and hurt his back. He's in a boot and seemy highly questionable. So they just lost 2 of their 3 Pro Bowl lineman and their backup tackle. That's way worse than losing WRs. Donald and company will be teeing off on Brady.

Godwin, Brown, Wirfs, Jensen, Wells, Murphy-Bunting, Jones, JPP (shell of himself with torn rotator cuff), Fournette won't be 100%, and many others gutting it out injured is a ton to overcome.

[Gthompson1978]

If Cincys O-line holds up, this will be a shootout. Cincys offense can play with anyone in the league besides the Browns and Jets, go figure lol. They pretty much have 3 WR1 and one of the better backs in the league THIS year. People sleep sometimes on the Bengals, regardless it should be a fun game to watch.

[49erRCCollector]

in MY perfect world Rams beat the Bucs and the 49ers beat the Pack and I drive down the 10 freeway to see both the NFC Championship game, and then the Super Bowl.

The Packers are very good. Aaron is very, very good. This Niners squad is Jekyll and Hyde week to week. Jimmy's shoulder has rumors swirling. I have no prediction, just a hope.

[nin5k72]

Man, if only the Bucs still had either Godwin or AB. Losing BOTH really hurts & will keep them from advancing I think.

[Onepocketj]

I think three games could be good this week. I think San Fran is going to get blown out personally.

Agree, Pack should blow them up.

Also would not be surprised if Tampa wins big. Rams played Monday night and have to play Sunday morning. That means Tuesday and Saturday are a rest day and walk thru. So they have 3 days to get ready. I know they have played already. But Tampa with an extra day and at home, big advantage.

Totally agree. I'm not too concerned either way, but Lance would bring an extra dimension. Hell, if you have two QB's and one can't run or throw and the other can't really throw but can run, you think you'd play the latter guy.

[blackbears86]

Chiefs getting disrespected at home.


Spread slanting to the Bills.


If you're a betting man and you have faith in Patty, time to pony up $$$$$$$$$
