Charles Woodson tweaked his shoulder too; I don't like the Packers chances in the playoffs at all if it turns out that he can't play, since there really isn't any true "grind it out" defensively minded teams in the NFC playoffs this year, so you can't really sneak through a round or two thanks to lucky matchups on that end. Absolutely everyone is capable of doing some real damage through the air. Hell, you could argue that Dallas is the least passing oriented team in the playoffs right now, but even that's only just because they have a balls out ridiculous running back committee.

If the conference championship for the NFC turns into an arena football game I will enjoy it so much. More so than Eagles v. Giants, 45-38.
Storm Rider:
I have to admit I had a little bit higher hopes going into this season than ending up 8-8, but there are some positives to take out of it. Most notably, Vernon Davis going from overpriced and underperforming to one of the best tight ends in the league. But also: Alex Smith rising from the grave and showing signs that he might just be a legitimate NFL starting quarterback, Frank Gore getting a fourth consecutive 1000-yard season despite mediocre blocking and missing three games, and the defense forcing absolute tons of turnovers in crucial games. Patrick Willis is still the best damn linebacker in the NFL, maybe the best overall defensive player.
But this is the offseason that will make or break Scott McLaughlin's career in San Francisco, as far as I'm concerned. The Niners will have two picks in the middle of the first round, so if he can't do something with this draft then I think he has to go. We need help on both lines (but who doesn't, really?), and we could use one more good defensive back. They have a core group to build on, but Smith needs to keep improving and the offensive line needs to get better at the very least for this team to be a contender again. Still, snapping the losing season streak is a start and Singletary has the team playing harder than they have in years.

He was our best player.

The whole build up to the goal can be seen here. Naylor (Leeds born, Captain) battles it away from the Scum players and knocks it to Howson (Leeds born, Vice-Captain) who plays that wonderful fifty yard pass through to Beckford.
I can't emphasise how happy this made me, I woke up laughing in my sleep this morning. Incredible.
