Perfect thrown ball if he ran the right route. Might of even been a TD or at least close to the Goal Line.

Just about everyone underestimated GB. After the slow start, many ignored them. Even when they beat Dallas, the narrative was "Dallas just choked again."

The truth was, GB was the better team...and they had been getting steadily better all season long. I still think they would have beaten Detroit had they gotten that far. Lombardi's chart is right on.

I under estimated them for sure but I also thought the rain would be way lighter. Without the rain, I think we win much easier.

they beat the chiefs, lions, cowboys, rams (2 times) down the stretch. Once they got going, they were as good as anyone. Nearly beat us. So I think In hindsight - we will realize that they were the tough test nfc team to play this year besides us.

A good return man with solid hands and ball security as a return man. But he really lacks as a WR. I hate when they put him in there at WR. Somebody else please. I can't believe they don't have something better at backup WR.

Unless the film quality is just bad, it's not Shanahan. He had on a red shell and black hat. I just checked the end of the game and that is what he was wearing.

More likely Brian Griese.

In any case, Shanahan confirmed Ray Ray was supposed to turn inside and Brock threw the pass on time. Instead, Ray Ray went off-schedule.

ive seen this with it saying since 1984 49ers did it and 1993 chiefs - it may just be first time since an NFC team did it (1984) and then a team doing it in general (1993).

either way - both montana lead teams 😎

Went off schedule with our season on the line, and got the sideline and Brock hot. It's just such a drop off after JJ at WR. It's a real issue. I can count on one hand how many plays Ray Ray has made as a WR this year, I can't recall much of any tbh. You are out there running the wrong stuff, and Brock isn't even gonna look your way. That's a matter of trust.

Yeah the initial replay looked open to the sideline, but if Ray Ray breaks in it's likely an easy catch and run to the end zone.

b***h he had to THROW IT OVER THE DEFENDER


I have been around football now for 44 years, as a player, and currently as a coach/scout/recruiter. I have never seen this level of unfair, insanely biased criticism of a player in my life. I mean, every daytime sports show - First Take, Undisputed, Fist Take, Colin, NFL Live, Speak, ALL OF THEM - are holding Brock to a standard that's painfully obvious they are struggling to maintain consistency when critiquing other QB's.

For a while I thought that this unfair criticism would even out, especially once he got a comeback win with missing talent around him. Quite the contrary, the criticism has gotten worse. Now I'm thoroughly convinced that not even a SB win quiet these people. Watching these sports shows I really feel that that GB win really pissed some people off, that they really wanted him to loose. Every time the 9ers win they strain their comprehension to explain how Brock wasn't the reason for win. In the GB game, it was CLEAR that Brock was the reason why we won. But listening to the national sports media trip over themselves praise Jordan Love you'd think GB won the game. Not one roasted Jordan Love for throwing 2 INT's. Not one mentioned that Brock had much better stats than Love. Can you imagine the excoriation of Brock had he thrown 2 INT's, one that lost them the game? Whole segments would have been on that alone. The talking points would write themselves.

It's clear to me that the sports media will not let Brock live down "Mr. Irrelevant". They just can't get past it no matter how many games he wins. I think the mental thinking goes something like this: "Mr. Irrelevant don't deserve to win, much less win the SB, especially over more established QG's. He's Mr. Irrelevant for a reason. It's not fare for him to be in this position when other, more deserving QB's have been in the league longer and drafted much higher with far more talent that we'd prefer to have this spot."

I just wish they be man enough and come out and say what they REALLY feel about Brock and stop presenting the world with these floating goalposts no other QB is expected hit.

I think we know now why McCloud got benched in favor of Conley for what seemed like the rest of the game after that.

Starting to feel like they may not bring Ray Ray back.

GB beat the Rams twice? You thinking of another team?

hrll yeah! I like Olsen as a commentator and like him even more now.

Lmao I made a mistake - for some reason I thought they played in the first round cause I was thinking of how they beat the lions.

Green Bay beat the rams 20-3 mid season. Week 9, when their turnaround started
