The Green Bay Packers and Arizona Cardinals are engaged in a classic playoff game, and if the current score holds, the winning play will be a nine-yard touchdown pass from Carson Palmer to Michael Floyd that was anything but routine.

Wow. Where do we begin. First of all, the ball could have been (and probably should have been) intercepted by the Packers.
Second, the fact that the ball fall right into the hands of Floyd was more than a little fortuitous to the Cardinals. Earlier in the drive, Palmer had a sure interception and probable pick-six dropped by Sam Shields.
The Cardinals are now up 17-13, with both touchdowns scored by Floyd. If the Packers can’t come back in this one, the team and its fans will be seeing that ball bounce to Michael Floyd in their sleep for quite some time.
