Two games end on the last play of the game with field goals. Three visiting teams win and oh yeah one was down by 28 with 26 minutes to play and won. The weather was not quite as bad as thought in Cincinnati until the home team got behind.
Andrew Luck's name will now join the ever lasting list of comebacks as Luck and the Colts managed to get enough Chiefs players out of the game to make you think KC had their second team in at the end like last week. Indy now gets prime time Saturday night against New England at 8:00 pm.
New Orleans won their first road playoff game ever on a last play field goal against Philly. There has to be no more agony for any team knowing that there is nothing you can do but hope for a miss on the winning field goal. The Saints play at Seattle 4:30 Saturday.
The sunshine boys the San Diego Chargers got a break again Sunday as the weather was not as bad as expected but when it did start pouring rain they took over the game in the second half. A healthy defense made life miserable for Andy Dalton. Chargers return to Denver Sunday night at 4:30pm
Yes is was four degrees and the 7th coldest game in history but weather really didn't play a part as San Fran kicks a field goal on the last play and the Packers had to endure not being able to stop the 9er's down the stretch and by not doing so had to know with two minutes to go they were beat. San Francisco comes to Charlotte at 1pm Sunday. I missed the New Orleans game to go 3-1.
Most of my radio/tv life I have covered one team but over the last seven years or so as I have been game of the week type games. One game this season as I flashed my media pass to work the game
the ticket taker said to me. This must be a big game if Tony Doughtie is in the house. That being
said Tom Suiter was in Nash County last week. You know what that means when Tom comes to town it is for the WRAL TV's "Extra Effort Award". Can't say who it is but you can find out Tuesday night during the 6:20 sports.
