On Sunday evening, the world of sports witnessed the first good game of the 2017 NFL playoffs, when the Green Bay Packers beat the Dallas Cowboys 34-31 to advance the NFC Championship game.
Naturally, Twitter went crazy moments after Mason Crosby nailed this game winning field goal…
Here’s a sample of the great reactions:

This is some next level photoshop. Instead of making strides in science and medicine we're crossing Jerry Jones and Michael Jordan. pic.twitter.com/wKaNjlVUfB

And according to @EliasSports every one of them would have been the longest postseason GW field goal in NFL history

My pals at the Elias Sports Bureau just told me this could be the first year the Super Bowl winning QB and Bachelorette winner are brothers.

Points to consider in #Packers win:
No Jordy
Burnett out 1st series
patchwork secondary
Adams limited late
Bakhtiari missed time
STILL WIN— Mike Heller (@HellerSports) January 16, 2017

Packers: "Can we get two 50-yard field goals in two minutes?"
Football Gods: "Here, take three!"
Vikings: "Can we get—"
Football Gods: "No."— BJ Reidell (@RobertReidell) January 16, 2017

And last but not least…
More I see winning FG, more I see a very weird thing: It hooked hard left, then straightened out. Obviously no wind. Like meant to be.

Our friends at Freezing Cold Takes put together a similar post chronicling different people who were convinced the game was going to overtime.
