I love the way Suh gently sacked Flynn for the safety. Detroit either could have said, "Hey, Detroit style football might be pushing the limits, but it's how we play" but instead told their guys "Let's show people we can scale it back a notch and still kick ass", which they did. I didn't think they could do that, and took GB figuring it was still anyone's division and the Pack would be in the game throughout. Wrong. Ouch.
Taking a break now from football after starting at 10am for our local HS team, Staples, vs. our traditional Thanksgiving rival Greenwich. In CT, we have similar rivalries all across the state that determine who makes the state playoffs and who does not. Had we won, which we didn't, we'd have faced undefeated Newtown who is the #1 seed, who we've owned in past years. Darn. Instead, now I'll be rooting for them. If they win their next two, they play for the state championship on the one-year anniversary of the shootings.
