[VectorPrime]

I WANT Jimmy to win because it would be hilarious. But I don’t think the 49ers can beat the Chiefs. So this is triage now. But if the Bengals pull off the early upset then I’ll be all in on the 49ers.

 

[NFL Mystique]

Niners

They seem to matchup well with the Rams.

 

[TheRainMaker]

Jimmy is the new Eli Manning: he tries he hardest to lose big games, stumbles his way into the playoffs, has certain teams number for some reason and kills the dreams of teams better than his.

Meanwhile, the Rams are sh*tting themselves at the though of losing 6 straight to the 9ers.

 

[ashley]

Don't really care who wins, hope it's competitive and a good game.

 

[italian pat patriot]

Go Rams

 

[upstater1]

About this new playoff format, with 7 teams making it in, and only one bye: it will mean that teams have an easier time making the playoffs, though a harder time making the Super Bowl, unless you're the #1 seed. It will give players the opportunity to rack up playoff stats if they are the 2nd or 7th seed (i.e. they'll play more games than they used to at those seeds), but it will depress your Super Bowl stats if you're not the #1 seed.

So, keep it in mind when looking at a teams playoff wins or Super Bowl wins, or playoff stats.

 

[nowayback]

Now that Bengals won, I dont care who wins . I am ok with any of the 3 remaining teams winning SB

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Go Jimmy G...would love to see him get back to the SB

 

[gtfanboy]

I want a Superbowl of the underdogs now. 49ers-Cincy.

And then 49ers win the Superbowl so that our paisan finally gets his ring.

 

[WhatJustHappened]

I'd LOVE to see SF beat the Rams, I just don't think Jimmy has it in him to do it.
He's a fkn ****y, and loses control under pressure.

 

[nowayback]

Actually would be interesting to see what SF would do with Jimmy if he wins Sb , Lance?

 

[Schmo]

Brandy breathing after every syllable during the national anthem.

Right???

 

[WhatJustHappened]

Michael Buffer? Get Real NFL

 

[gtfanboy]

Michael Buffer? Get Real NFL

I don't know why they are trying to make that a thing.

 

[PP2]

Rams ready for that draw.

 

[PP2]

Rams are doing the right thing- load up to stop the run and force Jimmy G to win the game.

 

[TheRainMaker]

Jimmy overthrowing wide open guys as usual.

 

[aluminum seats]

I feel like Jimmy is worse than he was. He wouldn't have missed that pass with the Pats. Maybe I'm crazy

 

[gtfanboy]

Kittle was open.
