Cardinals and Refs Team Up To Beat The Packers
Okay, so it wasn’t the refs that threw the bad passes and couldn’t stop an 80 year old woman from running up the field.. but this does have to be one of the worst officiated games in playoff history.
Dansby’s fumble return gives Cardinals 51-45 win
GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) Old master Kurt Warner and playoff newcomer Aaron Rodgers staged a passing duel to rival any the NFL has seen. And when the highest-scoring postseason game in league history ended abruptly in overtime, Rodgers flung his helmet to the sideline in disgust.
He can blame the Arizona defense for his misery.
Karlos Dansby returned Rodgers’ fumble 17 yards for a touchdown to give the Arizona Cardinals a 51-45 victory over the Green Bay Packers on Sunday in the highest-scoring playoff game in NFL history.
Rodgers, who started the game with an interception but was marvelous after that, was stripped by Michael Adams. The ball careened off Rodgers’ foot and into the hands of Dansby, who ran untouched for the score.
“He made a sack, the ball went in the air, I just made a play on the ball,” Dansby said.
The reigning NFC champion Cardinals (11-6) rushed the field to celebrate.

I'm most angry at the Cardinal that grabbed Aaron's face mask at the end…and the refs who didn't call it. The defense could've done better, but it was still a stellar game. The highest scoring play-off game in NFL history…WOW! I don't know which pill is harder to swallow….the Packers losing or the fact that it's Monday

I am most upset at the penalty that WAS NOT called for roughing the passer on the play immediately before the season-ending fumble for the Packers. My 9-year old son could even see the penalty, so why couldn't the refs?

GO AWAY….and GO COWBOYS (although I hate both teams, I hate the Vikings more).
