Good lord this thread was buried 4 pages deep today..a sign of the season coming to an end which legitimately does make me sad lol.  I'm kind of like Hunter S Thompson in this way (very famous author, wrote Fear and Loathing Los Vegas and others).

Anyways you guys been seeing all this stuff about Caleb Williams and my Bears?  Man I swear if he forces his way out of Chicago I will lose my mind.  I won't have rooted against someone more in my life.  I think that kid is going to be beyond special.

- The Ravens took a dive to help ensure we get a Taylor Swift Super Bowl, since she has drawn in millions of new viewers.

Taylor Swift is an agent of the Illuminati hehehe. I would not be very shocked if this theory will in reality have some truth. Also, if to help ensure the Chiefs will be in the superbowl, it would be to pay the referees. There was a play in the game where the Chiefs defense should have been flagged and the Ravens would have a chance for a touchdown, however, it was the 4th down and only settled for a field goal.

On Taylor Swift, how this has occured is the work of the Illuminati hehehehee.



Taylor Swift scored a 10 out of 10 to become the first artist in history to claim the Top 10 slots on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in the US, with tracks from her latest album, Midnights.

Billboard reported on Monday that Swift has surpassed Drake, who had held the previous record with nine of the Top 10 songs for a week in September 2021.

“10 out of 10 of the Hot 100??? On my 10th album??? I AM IN SHAMBLES,” the 32-year-old pop star tweeted.

Because I was bored & trying to time my bet, I've been watching the Super Bowl line and it has been fluctuating between SF -2 and -1 on a few different books. Seems like in the playoffs, experience & poise has trumped expectations just about every time, which is why I'm tempted to bet on KC.

Funny to watch a lot of reactions from the internet about the way things panned out. Here's a few of the more interesting themes I've seen running:

 - This is a Super Bowl between the league's two most hated teams (not true, I think those are the Cowboys and Eagles).
 - The Ravens took a dive to help ensure we get a Taylor Swift Super Bowl, since she has drawn in millions of new viewers.
 - At the same time, millions of regular SB-watchers will tune out this year b/c they don't care who wins.

On paper, SF should win easy. But things aren't always what they seem.

@ChiBitCTy. This was the argument this thread had during the regular season on which team to choose in a very important game. Mahomes with the Chiefs or Purdy with the 49ers. I would certainly like to witness Purdy and the 49ers to win the superbowl, however, I would certainly feel much safer betting on Mahomes and the Chiefs if I was forced to bet the game. They are also +2 on the spread.

Well I lost all of my bets this past weekend (edit: I did hit on the over for Lamar 19.5 rushing yards)  I knew going in to the games that I wasn't feeling super strong about them.  The week before and the week before that I felt pretty confident. Now for the Super Bowl I honestly have no idea how I'm going to bet this one.  On one hand the Niners are a much better team all around.  They've got 4 all pro caliber weapons on offense.  Then again you've got Mahomes on the other end and maybe ya'll have heard but he's okay at football lol.



@everyone (all the regulars anyhow) if you guys are interested in bein part of a Super Bowl squares games let me know.  Either going to do $5 or $10 per square.

I am terrible at Fantasy Football!!!
Very entertaining games, even if things went more or less as I thought they would.

The Lions are full of talent but their inexperience cost them the game, Dan Campbell coached the game as if it was a regular season game and they were playing from behind, while the 49ers showed the resiliency that experience gives you by never giving up even when all seemed lost, they had a little bit of luck coming their way with that interception turning into a TD, but what matters is they were able to take advantage of those mistakes.

The Ravens and Lamar Jackson dropped the ball, do not get me wrong the D played well, but how is it possible for the offense to only score 10 points in such a do-or-die game when they supposedly have the regular season MVP at QB? I suppose this proves once again that SB MVP >>> Regular Season MVP.

And the Chiefs they are just the new Patriots, no matter how bad they seemed during the regular season, when it comes playoff time they are ready and can beat anyone, anywhere.

That said I really hope the 49ers win the SB, for the reason that ‘I, for one, do not want to welcome our new Taylor Swift overlord.’

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.

There was also the game during the regular season where Dan Campbell chose to get 2 points after touchdown instead of the much safer extra point to tie the game hehehe. If I recall correctly, it was against the Ravens.

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

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...

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.

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").

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.

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