Ahh man, watching that just made me feel terrible. They where destined to go to the Superbowl. Everyone could tell they where hot at the right time and the ball was bouncing their way.
Have you watched the whole 4th&26 game again? I have seen the 1 play a grip of times, it seems like it's replayed all the time, but I have never seen the game from start to finish again. I think I'm ready to see it though.
That was cool seeing Harris' interception again. I was at the game and the camera shot was from the same side of the field that we were sitting on. So, it looks on tv just like it looked from the stands. I was struck by a few things watching the game. First, it seems like ages since the Packers were in a game of that magnitude. Man, we need to get back to that. Also, Favre looks like he's aged about 15 years since that game. Finally, we have better athletes on defense now than we did then, so there is hope.
I can't run no more
With that lawless crowd
While the killers in high places
Say their prayers out loud
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
A thundercloud

They barely won a wildcard game at home and got to play a beat up Philly team on the road. They still would have had to beat Carolina on the road and the Patsies in the Superbowl. This madness that the Packers were destined to win it all in 2003 is far fetched. They were a very good offensive team and just so-so on defense. It's not that they couldn't beat Carolina or New England, but it was highly unlikely they'd beat both.
Also, why do the Sherman haters assume that Shermy could outcoach John Fox or Bill Belichick? Shermy sucked as a coach, yet they were going to beat Belichick. On the other hand, Shermy sucked, yet he beat Holmgren every time they played. Doesn't add up does it?

It was highly unlikely that they would make the playoffs but they did. Sometimes you just have to seize the moment. They almost did and I don't gave a damn what you say IMO they would have beat Carolina. Then who knows with the Pats. The didn't exactly blow out the Panthers. Their defense wouldn't have shutdown the Pack O.
Either way it was the best shot they had at the SB since '98 and maybe the best one for while. I'm not a Sherman hater, I'm more of a Sherman regetter. He beat belichik and Fox before, why couldn't he have done it again?
