Titans O is on fire right now! 
good game so far, Henry gets hit behind the LoS so often but just keeps moving and gains 1, 2 yards when they should have been a loss.

Not even the half and the niners are killing GB.

As forecast by many (including myself)

I only tipped the Packers (here) because I would never pick against my team. 

I thought we did tremendously well to make the last 4 to be honest.  We're not a bad team but we're not that good either. 

On the other hand the 49ers look the complete package ... barring a miracle comeback by Green Bay the SB match-up looks a beauty.

The SB does look good, but I also feel one team may blow the other away.

2 scores in it now though

Packers will now need the 49ers to make an error or 2 (turnover) to have any sort of chance

Forgot to put picks in AGAIN.

Damn fine work 49ers and Chiefs. I reckon aside from the Ravens, the right teams got there in the end. Hats off to Titans too. Did amaing things with not so much to work with.

Phew! Thought we took the foot off for a while in the 2nd half,  Rogers started finding his rhythm, luckily that superb first half from Mosert gave us enough scoreboard space. Bring on the chiefs!

A piece inside me dies every time I watch this Kyle Shannahan lead 49ers side... He is a mastermind on offense the way he sets the running game up is superb. The way their offense moves the ball and can put up big scores early and put scoreboard pressure on opposing sides reminds me of his 2016/17 year as Falcons OC. 

Not to mention the job Rob Saleh is doing on the otherside of the ball... If Shanahan doesn't try to get to cute in 2 weeks time like what happened to us in 16/17 they are going to be seriously hard to beat

Over/under set at 53.5 for the SB ... that might be unders for these 2 free scoring teams. 

You'd reckon the winning team could easily rack up the numbers ... Ravens aside,  the 49ers & KC are the 2 best teams.  Both teams are great to watch as well. 

And credit to Andy Reid (again) ... he just knows how to get his team's into contention.  Time management can sometimes be an issue though ?

Packers need to turn a good list into a great list ... LaFleur did very well in his first year but he'll need to reshape the team. 

There is still too much onus on Rodgers as we have weaknesses at RB (depth)  WR (depth) and the run defence & pass defence isn't great either.  The O-Line is reasonable but we're a ways off from an overall perspective. 

All in all we did well to make the last 4 ... which is something that 28 other teams didn't achieve. 

Good luck to the 49ers & KC fans that reside here on this thread.  Just getting to the SB is some sort of achievement.

Leaderboard Post Season Tipping Comp

9 - DemonDave,  Dee Zephyr

8 - Go the Biff

7 - Macca

6 - JV7

5 - Clintosaurus,  Gorgoroth

4 - Dappa Dan

2 - DeeSpencer

If you accurately tip the SB Winner you'll receive 3 points ... plus a bonus 2 points if your winning score falls within 3 points of the winning teams actual score. 

e.g.  Dappa Dan puts up a scoreline of KC 34  49ers 31 ... if KC win and their winning score is somewhere between (and including) 31 - 37,  then Dappa would pick up a total of 5 points (3 points plus 2 bonus points)

So,  all those participating can still win (either outright or tie for the win) or finish on the podium.

And we could extend the bonus points system for all the rounds of the playoffs next year ... makes putting up the scorelines worthwhile.

I love the under. These two defenses are absolutely superb.

Could go that way as well Dappa ... and being a SB a high scoring game probably isn't a given even though both teams are free-scoring teams.

It is a high mark set by Vegas though ... and the bookies rarely lose.

I like the under too. Reckon the rock will be pounded a lot more than most expect.

For anyone who has Netflix I just finished the Aaron Hernandez doco. I knew nothing of this, happened before I took an interest in the NFL and never really heard much about it in the media.

Recommend watching it, very strange individual. Concussions & CTE was touched on in the documentary, I personally think it may have contributed but this bloke had some serious issues which also contributed to it all

2 more sleeps, it’s gonna be a fantastic SuperBowl and I know whenever you say that it totally puts the moz on it but I do think it will be a good watch. Desperately want my Niners to take this but the fact is we are facing a generational talent who is the real deal and some of these weapons they have are going to put up numbers fact. As always our game will focus on our ability to use our 4 man front to get to Mahomes and hopefully it puts some doubt in his mind because if he gets some time in the pocket or an inch of space he will do some damage. 

I don’t believe a Tight-end has ever won the MVP but this year is as good as any to be the first. 

Gonna be a very tough test for us I am not taking KC lightly. I hope it’s a good game for all the true enthusiasts in here to watch. Come on Niners!

I think that if KC can get Hill involved you will struggle a bit, they need to use him in screens etc to make Bosa and co hesitate even a second to give PM extra time to find a free player of run the ball himself.

KC need to block your run game and the short pass over the middle. 
 

Im hoping for a KC win especially for Andy Reid.

Chiefs 24 v 49ers 22

Niners 27- Chiefs 20

49ers 22 - Chiefs 19

Good luck to all you Niners fans. 

49ers 26 Chiefs 23

Chiefs 37, niners 24

Hill MVP with 125yrds, 2 tds

 

49ers 33  KC  24

 

 

 

 

 

Cracking game! 
Showtime lived up to his name. Gratz to Andy Reid. And I got a few bets come up in my fav so all around good day for me.

Commis to the niners fans here, I know what you are feeling right now. 

The trophy presentation in the NFL is so poor!
