    Attachment not found.

    1 1/2 hours til kickoff. Can't wait!

    Falcons should be up 28 or 35 to 0.

    As good as we have looked at times in this game, they still worry me with lack of execution.

    Late in the season i truly felt seattle and sf were easily the best teams in the nfc.

    That does not seem to be the case.

    No matter the outcome of this game, i believe our dome is safe, at least until arthur blank and the state and local politicians tear it down.

    not sure why you always feel the need to be some passive aggressive with me, but please don't presume to know what I'm thinking.

    I really thought GB had more momentum going into that game given how they'd looked recently, and SF was only a couple games removed from that blowout loss to Seattle where I felt they got exposed, simple as that.

    You mean the same guys in Vegas who predicted my Broncos would win easily????

    Yeah, thought so...

    Please don't presume to know what I feel, you're not that special :razz: First of, I questioned your "miracle" thought because nobody in their right mind would think SF winning that game would be a miracle. And your thought of GB had more momentum didn't hold since they lost to MN in a crucial match to earn home field advantage during the playoff. Sure, Vegas lines were incorrect from time to time, but they have been right most of the times and their line for that game or the Broncos game did not suggest any "miracle" at all :razz:

    And aren't you glad you weren't on the same page with your team since they've been setting GB up for this whupping since a few weeks ago:
    Quoted from http://sports.yahoo.com/news/nfl--ultimate-hybrid--colin-kaepernick-fuels-49ers-to-convincing-win-over-packers-081442885.html

    Of course, none of this was without strong design. San Francisco made its most extensive use of the "Pistol" formation Saturday, the same offense Kaepernick used when he played in college at Nevada.
    San Francisco offensive coordinator Greg Roman said the 49ers intentionally didn't use the Pistol in the season finale against Arizona and barely used it against Seattle in the previous game. When asked if they used the formation between 40 and 50 percent of the time on Sunday, Roman said, "Probably more than that."
    The goal of the formation is to play shotgun without showing any tendencies, which forces the defense to protect more of the field. Throw in all the read-option running ability of Kaepernick and you have a nightmare for a defense.
    "We didn't use it against the Cardinals because we wanted people to think we weren't going to use it," Roman said. "We worked on it a lot this week. A lot of practice."

    You see, they actually schemed their win, not relying on "miracle" :cheesygrin:



    Well I hope you're right this time around, because I do not want to face Seattle again next week.

    I think Seattle is a better team than Atlanta and would much rather play Atlanta even if that means taking it on the road.

    Your dream is about to come true on this one, so get ready for another "miracle" :razz:

    I honestly don't know what your problem is with me, did I bully you as a kid or something???

    The logic in your original comment towards me was flawed, and then you made a snide comment on top of that accusing me of lowering my expectations for SF so that I'd somehow feel better if they lost. Let's take those each separately:

    1 - You're saying my miracle comment was invalid because the experts basically had them favored. Well, those same experts also had Denver highly favored, so clearly those guys aren't always right. Perhaps the term miracle was too strong on my part, and had I known someone was going to respond the way you did I'd perhaps have chosen a different word. But the intent is the same, I thought GB was going to win that game and I didn't think it would be close. Had I read the article you linked previously I may have had a different thought going in, but I"m not an expert and don't spent time breaking down film. All I can go on is what I see week over week, and in the last few weeks of the season they looked inconsistent to me and particularly bad against Seattle a couple games ago. To be clear, I think alot of the 49ers and their defense, I just had a bad feeling going into that game even though they'd beat GB earlier in the season.

    2 - Your assertion that I stated or thought that because it was make the loss less painful is completely off base. I've spent the better part of the last decade rooting for a BAD 49ers team AND rooting for a good Indianapolis team, and it's always much more fun rooting for a team you think has a better chance of winning the game. Maybe your brain works like that, mine doesn't.

    If you just wanted to argue against my perception of the 49ers chances of winning and have a civil discussion that's fine, it's when you make it personal where things break down.

    And your passive aggressive style of posting whatever you want and putting smileys around it gets old.

    I was happy to see Atlanta win that game, for a couple reasons.

    - First and foremost, I genuinely believe that my 49ers have a better chance against Atlanta even though they have to go on the road.
    - Secondly, if the 49ers do lose that NFC Championship game, then I'd like to see Atlanta be the one in the super bowl. I'm not an Atlanta fan or anything, but would like to see Tony Gonzalez with a chance at a ring before he goes out. It would be cool to see him or Ray Lewis end their career with a ring (although I think NE is the clear favorite coming out of the AFC)

    I thought Denver was the favorite.We fixed that though.

    I was thinking, given how close that game was, if that had been played in Seattle I think it would have been a blowout by the Seahawks. That's why you win all those games during the regular season and get home field in advantage.

    Well the final line up is fixed:

    Niners at Falcons

    Ravens at Pats

    As a New England boy, I must say that the Ravens are "surging" and set for an upset of the Pats next week. Well, not really an upset since I really do believe the Ravens are the better team at this point. They're playing a full 60 minutes while N.E. is still fooling around "early" and inviting teams to jump ahead of them, then HOPING that Brady does NOT get intercepted or sacked too many times! NOT a good strategy. N.E. defense is jelling but needs a few more weeks or even another season to peak whereas the Ravens "D" is there already!

    I just don't see how the Brady bunch is going to contain Baltimore and manage to keep the Ravens OFF Tom? Remember, they almost won last year!

    As for Atlanta. Can't see them beating San Fran. Should be a good game.

    My prediction: San Francisco vs. Baltimore.

    Tough one to call, there! Depends on how "high" Baltimore is, if Baltimore is the Giants of THIS YEAR or not? The one thing we can say about the Niners (mostly) is "consistency"!

    In any case. Should be some interesting games on tap for next week!

    I could not stand Belichick for the longest time (maybe because his Patriots always beat my Colts), but he grows on you after a while. I love his press conferences, and how you usually can't tell if he's just won or lost a game.
