NFC Championship Game: San Francisco 49ers at Atlanta Falcons

[mayoclinic]

Atlanta is killing SF on 3rd and long. Just killing them. Those big WRs going up for the ball.

Julio Jones is a beast.

 

[YearbookCurfew]

It's looking like there may be a 14 - 0 lead...

Re: NFCCG Game Thread

Atlanta's doing pretty well...

try domination, at least through 1 quarter

 

[PatsSox363804]

how many times recently have both home teams won the championship game ?

2006, 2008, 2009

 

[Skree]

Falcons got 6 yards rushing. At least they're doing 6 times better than the Niners so far.

 

[mayoclinic]

what a catch. Man brady needs a WR like this.

There aren't many WRs like that. Which is my Dimitroff traded the farm to get him.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

hopefully if the falcons win, the refs won't be biased in the AFCCG being that the Harbowl would be impossible.

for a young WR, playing in the NFCCG, and going up against a very good D, Julio Jones is carrying himself in a very professional and mature way


much different than many WR's who come into the league w/ a diva attitude, i like Julio

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

SF's D so far is on their way to another subpar performance, would be the 4th in the last 5 games (only exception being the inept Cardinals). It's still early, but this is why I said don't be so sure ATL is the better matchup if we win tonight.

It would be amazing to see both Harbaughs miss out on the Super Bowl again...

 

[Foxypats]

at least SF held them to only a FG. Whoever wins this game will be favoured for the SB.

If the Ravens blow out the Patriots (or vice-versa) and the NFCCG ends up being a close game (esp. with Atlanta playing at NO) then the AFC team will be the favorite.

Total yards 145 to 1. First downs 7 to 0. Obviously, that won't last.

Kinda early to say that right? Let's see how the Ravens and Pats look first.

I would be thrilled to beat Baltimore and be the underdog in the SB. Just thrilled.

I dunno, if the Patriots win tonight and don't lose any major guys to injury, I see us being favored regardless of who wins this.

If the Ravens win, I think you're right regardless.

I can't decide which I don't like more.

 

[patsinthesnow]

I'm sorry, that Julio Jones trade was still stupid. That's something a 12 year old playing madden franchise mode does. They got friggin lucky.

 

[karguy85]

Definitely John. Just because the Ravens have been a thorn in the Pats side...

same here, but like mayo said, i would love to be an underdog in the SB

even if this is a blowout and we win a close game i still think well be favored
