Mahomes and Kelce for the win. 
Flowers killed the comeback with the taunting then having the ball knocked out of his hand at the 1 yard line.

    Lions might rue not settling for a FG on 4th and 2 to make it 27-10. A potential 3 score game has turned into 1 now.

    Massive luck in a few instances got the niners going and the way cashed in. Detroit fell apart in the end. 
    The Reynolds drop wide open was pretty much the end.

    Chiefs will on form win back to back.

    Recorded both games but followed the games on gamecast

    Looks like the Lions imploded or was it just the 49ers stepping up at crunch time?

    And the Ravens just couldn't score TD's despite being at or near the redzone a lot of the times.  Couldn't get it done?

    Niners got what should have been an interception that turned into a 53y gain, a one handed catch across the middle that was epic but also such a bad option/attempt. 
    Goff slightly missed Reynolds on a fourth down that really he prob should catch and Reynolds also missed a sitter on 3rd down, he just flat dropped it with no pressure.

    Purdy suddenly became Lamar and made great plays with his legs. 
    Lions should have been able to hold on/win that game but their second half was as bad as the niners got good, but either will be up against it in the SB. 
    What made the niners great through the year is not working at the moment.

    Great fightback. 24-7 down at half time but didn't give in, there was no way we could stop their run especially on the outside. 

    We were just flat out poor in the first half. Already mentioned defending the run but completely unable to get any pressure on Goff as well. I thought the Lions were outstanding in the way they approached this game and really exploited our weakness. 

    Some massive slices of luck helped get us going, the tipped ball Jennings catch and the Aiuik fluke. You need these rubs sometimes and if Purdy doesn't air it out there it doesn't happen. Then Dan Campbell's aggressive approach on 4th down. While it may have been wise to kick the FGs you have to remember its this approach that got the Lions to where they are. They weren't totally void of fortune themselves when Moody missed the field goal from 48 or Purdy couldn't get it to a wide open Jennings to start the 2nd half but that's football, take what they give you.

    The bright lights kicked in and all of a sudden Gibbs fumble and the 2 Reynolds drops, the pressure was on and Detroit seemed to wince in the moment. Once they lost the lead and had to rely on pass to get it back the momentum had well and truly shifted. They will be better for it, congratulations to Detroit for getting this far.

    Arguments could be made we weren't the best team on the night but I think we still deserved to win. Not thinking about the SB just yet happy to enjoy being NFC champs for the moment. Any picks for who's going to win would be extremely premature at this stage but the Chiefs have done it and know what is expected.

    For the time being, go Niners!

    Chiefs pass rusher Charles Omenihu tore his ACL yesterday. 7 sacks this season and was massive against the Ravens.

    Massive loss, means the pass rush on Purdy won’t be as good, they were great at creating pressure with only the front 4.

    Vegas has set the SB as a virtual pick-em

    49ers are at -1.5 which is close enough to a point after

    I was reckoning -3.0 KC but I'm 4.5 points out

    Very good player and he'll be sorely missed. Tragic for him.

    Still a hell of a defense though.

    I honestly think both offences should beat the opponents D, it will possibly come to special teams/turn overs. I think both teams score 24+

    Yeah I think there will be points scored as well. Stops and turnovers will be worth their weight in gold. 

    It's a horrible thing to think about for me but it's easy to see it coming down to a 2 min drill where #15 makes the big plays and gets them over the line. Can't win if you don't buy a ticket though.

    Tbh if it’s 2 mins and you have the ball you have nearly as much chance as they do.

    (I feel dirty writing that and will go for a bath full of sanitizer 😁)

    Last time I had a bet on scores being level at the half and chiefs winning. Might do the same bet again this year.

    Tips Gentleman (and margin)

    5 points for the win & 5 points for the correct margin bracket (1-6, 7-13 or 13+) 

    San Francisco are -1.5 favs over KC so that's close enough to call it a pick-em

    Here's the leaderboard so good luck!

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?
