<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: 69 Post Sedan</div><div class="ubbcode-body">If you take one of the multiple things for the Packers during this game and have it go their way, the outcome most likely would have different.

(1) Get in to the end zone one (or more) of the three possessions they were within the 10 yard line just in the first half.

(2) They should have been ready for the fake 3 point attempt. Even I was thinking they would do it.

(3) Clinton-Dix breaks up the hail mary pass for the two point conversion.

(4) Morgan Burnett runs for more yards after the interception instead of sliding.

(5) Bostick does his job and blocks instead of trying to catch the onside kick.

(6) Most of all......McCarthy makes better calls instead of being too conservative.

Better play calling, playing better and most of all, luck was on the Seahawks side the last three minutes of the game.

Now....that can go both ways but Seattle made more mistakes throughout the whole game and would have needed more than one thing to change the outcome.

The bottom line is, the Packers lost and it's just a game that we have no control over.

For the record, I will be rooting for the Seahawks to win because they are in the NFC and I like Russell Wilson....a former Wisconsin Badger.

</div></div>On your number 4 statement above I still wonder about. Why did he slide down rather than try to get as much yardage as possible? At the time he slide down I don't remember seeing a Seahawk within 10 yrds. of him. What confused me even more is that the announcers said that he did the right thing in sliding down, huh? Would someone please explain to me why he did the right thing by sliding down. I'm a Packers fan and still haven't gotten over this loss.
