No but really, well done by the Niners to come back in the second half.

Funny thing, only one other team came back from a 17-point deficit to win a NFC Championship game, so the tonight we tied the record.  The other teams was the 2012 9ers.  Roll Eyes

Damn, lost my bet. I would have appreciated it if the Lions just went for a FG in their final drive, but noooo, they had to go for the TD.

Anyway, this is what we get for the Super Bowl:

Chiefs/Niners: 26.7%

Any given Sunday...



FUCK YEAH!

I agree, I just can't see the Lions being able to beat the Niners.  The Niners have the best RB in the game and then you've got Aiyuk and Deebo whom are two of the best WRs and of course Kittle being one of the best TEs.  Not to metion they've got a very solid defense.  Purdy aint too bad himself.
I agree on this as well, the Lions are too young and inexperienced, give them a few years and their players will develop even more and become a serious menace, but right now most of their start players are rookies or second year players with no playoff experience at all, while the 49ers are full of veterans that have been to the SB before, the only way I could see the Lions upsetting the 49ers is if the same weather conditions presented themselves for the game, Purdy got some problems trying to pass effectively with the football completely wet, and this could make the result way more dependent on the line of scrimmage and the running game, besides the 49ers really need Deebo to make a recovery or the passing game may suffer, given that whenever he has not been on the field we know the 49ers have struggle to get the win.
Young and inexperienced doesn't mean much in this game.
They have the heart of Lions, no pun intended, as you can see the way they are playing.
Their running game is pretty perfect so far.
Goff is looking like a champion bound quarterback while Purdy is looking very poor at his passing.

I think we will be seeing both major underdogs from both divisional games going through to the Super Bowl for the beginning of the new month. Grin

Patrick Mahomes.
Mahomes, Kelce and Pacheco had a really wholesome first half.
Quite surprising how KC defense dominated Ravens offense. Ravens rush game basically did not exist for Ravens today and it's usually where Ravens have been strong. Well executed game plan by KC.
However, KC scored all points before halftime and after halftime, it was a big punting mess.


In NFC championship, Lions are showing a very good game so far and are leading but we always need to expect 49ers to make a comeback.
As I've considered earlier, first play, Lions got up 7 points, 49ers could not respond directly and even missed a field goal.
Next, Lions got up 14-0.
What a game so far from Lions.   Smiley
Let's see what will happen next, I hope for a Lions win.

AFC / NFC championship games are prone to upsets, when a motivated team gets up early against a favorite.

It's not AI, here's my original text:

Quote
Lions will have a hard time against 49ers. A win is not impossible for Lions if Lions can get a good run game, where 49ers defense might struggle.
Deebo will play for 49ers and if Lions don't have any idea to stop him it, 49ers can score quite high.

However, in such games, NFC championship, results can get quite strange and if 49ers start a few bad plays while Lions get up early, a surprise can happen.

Of course it's AI...
Of course it's not AI.  Roll Eyes

the prompt was probably something like "write the most useless generic text about 49ers vs Lions without knowing anything about either team except that 49ers have someone named Deebo".
Wrong guess, I wrote all words on my own, I don't even have AI in my browser.
What a waste of time to even consider doing such a BS "prompt".

But at least your accusation is funny (Deebo part), yet still completely untrue. Because AI knows for sure about Deebo's recent injury doubts, yes yes.
What a ridiculous accusation.

No one accused you of being one, try more reading and less bullshit next time. Or don't, DW will delete it anyway.

Even though Mahomes is the greatest player in the world, and arguably the second best QB ever...I just can't look past that healthy vaunted defense as well as Lamar getting his top target back in Andrews.
Ravens really need to find a way to stop Kelce and Pacheco. It's quite surprising how easily KC is able to advance here. Ravens offense is barely existing as well...
And KC could even be up 20-7 right now.

But game is far from over.

Well here we are!  I do wish the first game was the Niners Lions as that game is clearly the lesser of the two (and not going to be broadcasted in "4K").

I've got my money on the Niners for game two. I just can't see the Lions taking that one down.

Line is up to -7.5 for SF, expectations of Deebo's return are factoring in I think.

I could see the Chiefs beating the Ravens, but I just can't see the Niners losing to the Lions. We will see how the game script goes lol.  Now way America want's the Lions in the SB.  I mean beside and underdog story and what not, they are clearly the least popular team of whos left.

We can calculate the likelihood of a Chiefs / Lions Super Bowl based on the current odds:

Chiefs beat Ravens: 36% chance
Lions beat 49ers: 26% chance

36% x 26% = ~9.4% chance of a Chiefs / Lions Super Bowl

In case you're wondering about the other possibilities:

Ravens/Lions: 16.4%
Chiefs/Niners: 26.7%
Ravens/Niners: 47.4%

The younger brother of John Harbaugh, Jim is the new head coach of the Chargers.

On our next fantasy league, can I have a reservation for Justin Herbert to be my quarterback hehehe. I have read some articles that mention very good things about Jim Harbaugh and how he can bring the Chargers to the superbowl within 4 years. I do not know if I should believe the hype, however. Everyone in this thread would know more than me if this hype is real.



The Los Angeles Chargers got their man: Jim Harbaugh is their new head coach.

Harbaugh and the Chargers agreed to a deal on Wednesday afternoon.

After winning the national championship at Michigan, Harbaugh has one career goal left, and that's to win the Super Bowl. With the Chargers, where the franchise quarterback is already in place in Justin Herbert, Harbaugh thinks he can do it.

I mean at the end of the day the Lion still have Goff who sure he's been very solid, but he's still Jarrod Goff, I just don't see him going to the big dance. Yeah the Niners need Deebo in a big way.  I hope he's able to play.

The Ravens Chiefs game is another story.  I could easily see that going either way, though I think the Ravens should win this one.  Going to be a fun weekend of games.

I wish the Chiefs Ravens game was on Fox so we could get it in "4k".

I'm going with the unpopular vote.  I'm betting on a cheofs and lions superbowl.  Think in the 49ers armor last week and lions are looking like they are on a mission.  Amon Ra with 130 yards amd 2 tds to shut up any doubters on his pro bowl sub.  Amd now that I said that here comes a Baltimore and 49ers superbowl 😂

What do you think @DireWolfM14, since these are your boys

I'm scared.  Not because I think the Lions are that good, but when the Niners suck they really, really suck.  Plus, I'm trying to not jinx anything by being overly confident.  Not to mention, Shanahan-coached teams have a history of chocking in big games.

Having said that, I tend to agree with your logic.  Assuming Deebo is ready, the line will go up.  And if the Niners show up the way they are expected to, I don't see the Lions causing us much trouble.

The 49ers will win, however, -7 points might be too much trust on Brock Purdy. But I am not an expert hehe.

But if I am asked which of these underdogs might bring the fans the upset, it might be the Chiefs, I reckon. Patrick Mahomes during a very importsnt game against a better team is the type of challenge that brings the very best out of this type of player.

In any case, for the superbowl I want the 49ers and the Ravens to win.

I looked into it to see if it was possible, and I shouldn't be surprised, but its true, the Super Bowl can't end in a tie (neither can playoffs games, for obvious reasons). A tie score at the end of the 4th quarter initiates an infinite series of overtimes (as many as it takes). Also kind of interesting, only one Super Bowl has ever gone to overtime:

The New England Patriots defeated the Atlanta Falcons in overtime, 34-28, in Super Bowl LI.

In blowing a 28-3 lead, the Falcons remained one of the NFL teams that have never won a Super Bowl.

Most recently, Super Bowl LVII nearly went to overtime before Harrison Butker’s game-winning field goal with 11 seconds remaining.

Gonna be depressing when the season is over. Cherish these last 3 games folks.
