That list of alternates goes down a long way. Andy Dalton, basically the King Ralph of quarterbacks, is a Pro...
Not Even Hockey Is Safe For Packers Fans Right Now
I absolutely love this. When your own team sucks—as the Vikings do—sports, in their infinite wisdom, offer you a consolation prize: exulting in the tears of your enemies. St. Paul native Ryan Rhody had seats behind the Wild's bench for last night's game, and so knew he'd end up on TV multiple times....

Packers Loss Sends Small Child Into Devastated Weeping Frenzy
Little man is legitimately upset here (and maybe a little sleepy), and with good reason.

Seahawks Tweet, Delete MLK Quote With Photo Of Crying Russell Wilson

Apparent technical issues made...
This Is How Close The Seahawks Came To Never Even Starting A Comeback
At The MMQB, Robert Klemko has a fascinating breakdown of the Seahawks' fake field goal that got them on the board and set the stage for their historic comeback.

Brandon Bostick Wasn't Supposed To Try To Catch That Onside Kick
On the other side of the Seahawks’ disbelieving delirium is, necessarily, a whole lot of Packers feeling individually shitty about something they did, or failed to do, any one of which might have been enough to ice this game for good. Settling for a pair of field goals from the 1-yard line comes to ...

This guy was so elated with Seattle's win that he ran onto the field, pulled his pants down, and chugged a bottle of unknown liquid while CenturyLink Field drank in his legs. Go Seahawks....
Just What The Hell Was That? The 2015 NFC Championship In Photos
The Seahawks and Packers just played one of the ugliest, unlikeliest, and all around most fantastic NFC championship games in recent memory.
