Bier Meister 1,513 Posted January 27, 2023 Quick thoughts... For Philly to be successful: be aggressive on the outside vs SF dbs allow hurts to run. while SF has an excellent defense, these two areas are vulnerabilities. if they do this often, I can see Goedert's role increasing as the game plays on. For the 49ers to be successful: minimize the big plays by air minimize hurts' ability to extend drives with his legs maximize personnel mismatches on offense more cmc and kittle... if so the outside will open up for Aiyuk and deebo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reality 2,710 Posted January 27, 2023 12 hours ago, Cruzer said: SF was lucky to get past Dallas................ and Dak isn't qb this week. Iggs roll and cover. Bungles continue to have KC's #, win a close one. Tough game no doubt but, SF was never in any real danger of losing. A fumbled punt is the only reason it was even perceived as close. This week is a different story. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This week is a different story. just remember, the 49ers were lucky to hold dak to 200 yds (46 to lamb on one play) and their two backs to 48... or that dallas just didn't play well. 49ers had no impact on that whatsoever.

Voltaire 4,556 Posted January 27, 2023 I'll take the two home favoirites -Eagles and Chiefs - given the small point spread. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bostonlager 2,463 Posted January 27, 2023 There is only one man that can save us from having to see Patrick Mahomes' f@ggot little brother and ###### of a wife on television during the Super Bowl. His name is Joe Burrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Flipper 57 Posted January 29, 2023 I'm a non-Californian Niners fan (a very long time ... very) and see that the Eagles defense seems to be susceptible to the run. I wonder if Shanahan might pull a Belicheck and run it all but one play ... That would be awesome. Boring ... but awesome. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He really is that special. Just doesn't have to be this year. His window is huge. Montana won 4 at age 25, 28, 32 and 33. Mahomes won it at 24. He's 27 now.

JustinCharge 2,397 Posted January 29, 2023 Yahoo has a panel of NFL pundits. They are posting stellar records in predicting the NFL playoffs. 9-1, 10-0, 7-3, 8-2. All are picking the Chiefs to win. 3 of 4 are picking the Eagles in the other conference. The one picking the 49ers is the 9-1 guy. I've picked 49ers-Bengals which is not any of their picks but I've selected 2 road teams which is probably not a good idea. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/predictions-both-nfl-championship-games-144505650.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustinCharge 2,397 Posted January 29, 2023 the last time the #1 seeds met recently: 2017 when the Eagles beat the Patriots. 2015 when the Broncos beat the Panthers. 2014 when the Patriots beat the Seahawks. 2013 when the Seahawks beat the Broncos. 2009 when the Saints beat the Colts. recent super bowls: 2018 2v2 2019 1v2 2020 1v5 2021 4v4 super bowls without a #1 seed making it: 2021 4v4 2018 2v2 2012 2v4 2010 2v6 2008 2v4 1997 2v4 1992 2v4 1980 2v4 1979 2v3 interestingly, last year's Bengals / Rams game was the first time that neither a 1 or 2 seed made it.
