The Cards rock!


Possibly the greatest ever game of NFL football was played this evening; the greatest number of points ever scored in one play off game - 96. The most touchdowns ever scored in one play-off game - 13. This game had everything.

For the first quarter it looked like a Cardinals blow-out; then we had a come back from the Green Bay Packers, then like a couple of heavy-weight boxers they traded blows until the game was tied at 45-45. Arizona then get the ball one more time and drive it down the field for a simple 34 yard field goal to win the game with 14 seconds left, and the kicker, Neil Rackers misses it.

Overtime. The Packers win the coin toss and get the ball first - and as the winner in overtime is usually the team that wins the coin toss, bad news for AZ. But one minute into the extra 15, the AZ defence suddenly wakes up and strips the ball from the Packers QB to run it in for a touchdown and the win - 51-45 - beautiful!  

A short and sweet description, but watch the highlights for yourself! Breathless!
