1. Well-written

  • ...Matt Hasselbeck proclaimed "we want the ball and we're going to score!" when the Seahawks won the coin toss before the start of the overtime period. Should be Matt Hasselbeck proclaimed, "We want the ball, and we're going to score!" when the Seahawks won the coin toss before the start of the overtime period.
  • Also add a comma after "ball" when the phrase is mentioned again in the overtime sub-section.
The punctuation on this phrase in sources is everywhere, including a period and removal of "and". From my understanding of English grammar, a comma is not needed to connect these two phrases though. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:15, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, this explanation makes sense to me. -Riley1012 (talk) 22:10, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
  • The dramatic finish advanced the Packers to the Divisional Round of the playoffs where they lost to the Philadelphia Eagles... Add a comma after "playoffs"

  • ..putting them in 2nd place in the NFC West... and ..the Packers finished the regular season on a 4-game winning streak... Change tp in second place and a four-game winning streak

  • ...on a 4th down rush from the 1-yard line., ...covered the end of the third quarter and beginning of the 4th quarter..., ...while Green converted a 4th down attempt and then a rushing touchdown from the 1-yard line. and The ensuing Eagles' field goal tied the game at the end of the 4th quarter... Should all be "fourth" instead of 4th

  • After two short completions, Favre founded Walker for a 27-yard catch... Should be "found"

2. Verifiable
The sources used are reliable. Passes Earwig's Copyvio check. Spot check: 3, 5, 9, 11, 17, 21, 26 - All fine.

  • 14: Favre's touchdown pass made it his 14th straight playoff game with a passing touchdown, beating Dan Marino's record at the time. The source doesn't mention who's record it was, just that Favre broke it.
The second part of the newspaper article, on page B2, does. This is the second reference on that sentence [1]. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 14:15, 9 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

3. Broad
The article covers the main aspects of the game without unnecessary detail.

4. Neutral

  • The score was the first defensive touchdown to win an overtime playoff game in NFL history and has been ranked as one of the best plays in NFL history. As noted in the legacy section, the play was ranked 86th out of 100 best plays in NFL history. I would re-write this sentence in the lead to say "and has been ranked as one of the best 100 plays in NFL history" to avoid the impression that it is in the top 10 or something.

5. Stable
No concerns here.

6. Illustrated
