God the NFL needs to change these sorry OT rules like ten years ago. Just retarded that Allen couldn't get a crack at it because of the coin flip
That's a slightly popular but very stupid and imbecile opinion.

People need to realize that football is a Team Game, with 3 co-equal phases of the game just like the U.S. Government with 3 co-equal branches of federal government. The special teams is analogous to the SCOTUS which provides checks and balances against the offense/president or defense/congress.

If anything, the NFL should return to the original OT rules, but get rid of the game clock (still keep the regular play clock and limit teams to 2 timeouts). Instant sudden death. That would eliminate ties as well. First score of ANY kind should win the game. Football is a TEAM GAME. If your special teams is not good enough to not allow a huge kick return, your team doesn't deserve to win the game and advance. If your defense is not good enough to keep the other team out of FG range (or give up a TD), your team doesn't deserve to win and advance. That's all and that's that.

(Back in the good old days before they stupidly changed the rules in 2010, teams were a lot more aggressive on defense, even on opening OT drives, instead of the bend-but-don't-break crap we see in today's overtime games on the initial possession of OT, both regular season and playoffs. It was more fun to watch and a much better and more competitive brand of football.)

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills LOST the game, fair and square. IF Josh Allen wants to be a whiny bitch about it, he should have considered a career in individual sports like golf, tennis or MMA. Or maybe basketball where all players at least get to play in all phases of the game. But this is the NFL. A team game with three co-equal and co-dependent branches. Just ask the Packers. If one of those is a liability it could submarine even the best of seasons even with an elite QB and elite defense.

49ers - heart and overcoming limitations
Rams - arrogant mercenaries

[Millennial_Messiah]

Yeah, but we shouldn't wait until a situation like this to call for change. The overtime rules have always been shitty, but it's like a bunch of people are just now taking issue with it. And even when the NFL did make a change, it was a shitty change that didn't actually address the issue. It was like, "You want us change these shitty rules? How about...we replace them with slightly less shitty rules, but still basically the same in spirit!"

Get rid of the game clock and go back to first score of any kind wins. Football is a three-phase game. If your defense can't hold you don't deserve to advance. If your special teams can't protect the goddamn punter when it's snowing on your home field, your team deserves to fucking lose.

I love these underdog Niners and hope they win it all, but I don't really have much of a dog in the race between the final 4 teams. I'd be happy for all 4, yes, even the Rams. Hopefully in that case their fans will bolt away from the shitty Lakers and start following football instead. The teams I love are out (Dallas/Jax) and the teams I hate are out (GB, Pit, to lesser extent Buf, WAS, and NE) so I don't really have a melt-down scenario either way.

Then you would get that abnoxious fan base, but in football. Be careful what you wish for.

We already have two of those, Green Bay and Buffalo. I didn't use to think Buffalo until they recently got so cocky in the past 2-3 years.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Pittsburgh is up there too, but Arcadian is a good dude.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Well yeah, they shouldn't have waited until a situation like this happened again. I don't know what their issue is with change. The NCAA did it and it's way better than the alternative.

Oh hellllllllllll no!!!!! College OT rules are the fucking worst. Inflated scores, inflated stats, easy scoring, overall inflation, you never know when you're going to be able to eat dinner... NCAAF OTs are absolute dogshit. And what makes matters worse is those guys are forced out there exhausted for unlimited amounts of snaps without even getting paid.

:lol this idiot ballwashing the NFL
:lol Idiot? His points are 100% accurate and valid. I don't think any of it can be disputed. And his bottom line is correct. The college OT format is ghastly.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Bill bros still shell-shocked

2 straight AFCCG losses

Noone remembers 3rd Place...
:lol WTF do you mean? Bills didn't make the AFCCG this year. Why? Because they just aren't good enough. The defense sucked and Trash Allen choked on the coin toss. Heads is the choice. You have to come through when it matters most to your team and it's Trash Allen's fault that Trash Allen didn't get the ball back for his offense.

Great point let's change baseball OT to a coin flip as to who bats first and where the first team that scores, wins. Just like the NFL

You don't want it to be like college OT, do you? I don't think that is a very good solution either.

[Blake]

I'm fine with putting an extra 10 minutes on the clock for each OT period for the playoffs.

The regular season I'd be fine with just one ten minute OT before ending in a tie.

That's stupid. Baseball is a very low scoring game and isn't full contact, people aren't getting roughed up and tackled every snap/ at bat. Moronic comparison.

No ties... Fuck ties, they murk and muck up the standings. Either go back to 15 minutes and sudden death or do 10 minutes and 50 yard kick-offs (each team's kicker getting equal chances, no kick protection/kick blocking allowed, just the holder and kicker) until we determine the winner and the winner is awarded 3 points for the total kickoff session and the victory. NO MORE TIES.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Absolutely nobody likes ties in sports. That's why soccer is impossible to watch. It should definitely not happen in the NFL.

[Blake]

Lol what does "getting roughed up" have to do with anything?

[Millennial_Messiah]

Lol what does "getting roughed up" have to do with anything?

Everything. The CBA in football revolves around the very real threat of injuries in football and do everything they can to limit snaps. That's why the 15 minute to 10 minute overtime length change, which was stupid, was passed in 2017. That's why overtimes were taken out of preseason. That's why special teams rules seem to get tweaked every other year. It's even worse in college where people aren't making money and basically playing multiple OT's worth of extra snaps for pride and for other people's entertainment, particularly the vast majority of college players that have no shot to be drafted and make the NFL. In the NFL, the players' union would never go for it, and rightfully so.

Baseball's unlimited extra innings is stupid even if you're a hardcore baseball fan and don't mind staying up until 1AM to watch 15+ inning games, but it doesn't take a toll on the players' health and fatigue the way that extra snaps do in football. Most of the time baseball players are standing and squatting waiting for a ball to come to them or in the dugout. Sure, pitchers' arms get tired, but that's what a bullpen is for. In football you don't have 100 extra players to put on the field in such cases, and if you did the financials just wouldn't work.

[DAF86]

About the OT rule:

I think the best solution is just securing an offensive drive for each team, TD or not. If both teams remain tied after those first two drives, first score after that wins.

This rule would also open the possibilities for a lot of different tactics. If you win the toss, do you select to receive or defend first, knowing that you are secured and offensive position and if your rival doesn't score, a FG wins you the game?

Also, if your rival scores a TD, and then you answer with a TD of your own, you can go for the kill with a 2 pts conversion. It isn't perfect but I think it's the best solution.

[FrostKing]

Week 18, the Rams up 17-0 were primed to end the 49ers season

3 weeks later the Boogeyman returns ready to end theirs

No extra points in OT. Must go for 2.

[DAF86]

No extra points in OT. Must go for 2.

No, that takes away the opportunity of winning the game on the second drive if you defended first and allowed a TD.

As I see it, with that rule change, the team that attacks first still has the upper hand of winning. Let's put the example of KC and Bills. Chiefs win the toss, select to get the ball and score a TD. With your proposal, the Chiefs are forced to go for the 2pts conversion. Say they get it. Now the Bills can only tie the game. With the third drive the Chiefs get a FG and still win the game mainly because they won the coin toss.

Now, with my proposal, Chiefs get a TD and the extra point. The Bills on the second drive score a TD and have the opportunity of selecting whether to tie it or risk going for the win, knowing that the Chiefs are most likely going to score on the next drive. It just gives head coaches the chance of having their decisions be more important than the coin toss.

Got to come up clutch on that coin toss.

Chiefs couldn't get it done in 2019 and it deep-sixed Mahomes' MVP season. They got it done this year and advance and likely make the Super Bowl.

Trash Allen may have scored a couple late game TDs against lousy KC prevent defense, but he completely choked the game away on the coin toss. That's it and that's all.

Is that why a full extra game was added on the season?

Just stop. They already play about 5 or 6 minutes of OT any way. Just put 10 minutes on the clock, reward the home team the ball first in the conference playoffs and there you go. Easy and nobody complains but you.

That was stupid and without a bye and made to recover covid losses.

Really the logical solution would be 18 games in 20 weeks, starting the regular season in early-mid August.

There’s a pretty good interview with Deebo this last week. He says that they play so physical that it’s hard to prepare for them in a week. He explained it better than that. But it made sense. Imo, they’d be an easy favorite with a slight QB upgrade.

Imo with Rodgers and Brady flaming out so quickly and having already won a bunch of MVP's, I'd switch the MVP award up this year and give it to Kupp or Deebo. Both are the best player on their team and very much deserving.

Aren't the votes cast before the playoffs start? Or is that in the NBA only?

Yes. Andy is retarded

[FrostKing]

Back to the Super Bowl

Get Jerry on the line

[Millennial_Messiah]

Aren't the votes cast before the playoffs start? Or is that in the NBA only?

They are, which is stupid. I believe that they should be cast and finalized and released to the public in the weekend between the championship weekend and the Super Bowl (i.e. next weekend / Pro Bowl weekend). I don't think one and done's like Rodgers this year or 2007 Dirk Nowitzki deserved MVP.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Back to the Super Bowl

Get Jerry on the line
Jerry Jones already said he's rooting for the Rams to win it all. He was born and raised in LA.

MVP is a regular season award, so the best they can do is to cast the votes before the playoffs start.

[DAF86]

Chiefs getting away with a lot of contact on those last two passes.

[Thanos]

Chiefrefs already decided this game. I guess I’ll take a nap before Rams-Niners.

[Millennial_Messiah]

MVP is a regular season award, so the best they can do is to cast the votes before the playoffs start.

That's stupid. It should factor in both RS and playoffs (not Super Bowl). Co equal branches.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Chiefs getting away with a lot of contact on those last two passes.

Both teams a little handsy in the endzone, but Chiefs still scoring TDs because they can extend plays, Bengals have to throw the go route every time because their o-line can't hold up.

It's nice to see a championship game that isn't a flag fest. Good on you refs :tu

[Millennial_Messiah]

Chiefrefs already decided this game. I guess I’ll take a nap before Rams-Niners.

Huh? Dumb comment to make since there hasn't even been a single yellow flag and we're halfway through the 2nd quarter.

[Millennial_Messiah]

lol "Chiefsrefs"... :lol

Burrow got away with obvious grounding on that last play, but the refs didn't call it allowing Cincinnati to run on the next play and convert.

But I like that they're letting them play.

[Millennial_Messiah]

KC is just the better team. Cincinnati overachieved this year; if they want to be competitive long term they MUST nuke offensive line hard in the draft because they have one of if not the worst offensive lines in football. How do you give up 9 sacks in a playoff game to a Tennessee Titans anemic pass rush that had 19 fucking sacks all regular season? :lmao

[benefactor]

Chiefrefs already decided this game. I guess I’ll take a nap before Rams-Niners.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Burrow with another intentional grounding non call. And people say the refs are favoring KC just because of the score board. Pathetic. Actually watch the game.

[SpursforSix]

The 49’ers are a QB away from contending.

[DAF86]

That was some awful angle tackle taking by Ward. :lol

[DAF86]

That stupid TO Reid called instead of challenging the play straight up coming in to play now.

[lefty]

:lol great play calling KC

[DAF86]

Dumb playcall.

[lefty20]

Any pass not in the endzone should've been an automatic no.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Bad call by the refs on that PI in the endzone; bad call by the Chiefs to throw a lateral pass with no timeouts there. I guess all fat coaches think keeping the ball inbounds with no timeouts is smart, huh Mark Celibate? Yeah, Fat Reid is an idiot, but if they're going to do that at least run the ball or QB sneak it. 21-10.

[SpursforSix]

Holy fuck. Here’s how out of it I am. I was watching the pregame on NFL Network. Took a nap and woke up to 49’ers / Rams. It’s a fucking replay. Missed a half of the live game.

[Millennial_Messiah]

That stupid TO Reid called instead of challenging the play straight up coming in to play now.

Tyreek should have gone out of bounds, but yeah you either need to sneak it, throw into the endzone, even running up the middle would have been a higher percentage play because Cincinnati wasn't playing the run at all.

[SpursforSix]

I was shocked how fast the game was going.

[DAF86]

Holy fuck. Here’s how out of it I am. I was watching the pregame on NFL Network. Took a nap and woke up to 49’ers / Rams. It’s a fucking replay. Missed a half of the live game.

Huge comeback coming up.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Huge comeback coming up.

I don't think so. Cincinnati has a college level offensive line, unlike Buffalo.

I don't think so. Cincinnati has a college level offensive line, unlike Buffalo.

Yeah, Fat Reid is an idiot, but if they're going to do that at least run the ball or QB sneak it. 21-10.

seems to be a trend among fat coaches, with the end of half time management bads tbh

I guess they start getting hunger pains late in the half and want to head to the locker room as quickly as possible so they can get started early on their triple Whopper IMO

[Thanos]

Chiefs fans incensed that they only get 99% of the calls and not 100% :lol

[benefactor]

:lol that flop

[GAustex]

Fat coaches be needing that Triple Whopper

[benefactor]

No calls evening out a bit tbh

[Thanos]

Makes sense that a Chokelahoma alum would run the wrong route on a screen pass :lmao

[benefactor]

Collapse alert

[lefty20]

That's some bully ball right there by Chase.

[DAF86]

I don't think so. Cincinnati has a college level offensive line, unlike Buffalo.

There's the comeback.

[Robz4000]

:lol slept through most of this game myself. Woke up in time to see the Chase TD to tie.

[Robz4000]

Mahomes looks shook.

[lefty20]

Who'd thought that we'd be seeing the defenses take over in the 4th Q of all things.

[DAF86]

Mahomes is shook, tbh.

[benefactor]

His girlfriend probably tried to show him her shirt sales numbers at the half

[DAF86]

How do you not bring him down there?

[Robz4000]

:wow how did Burrow escape that?

[benefactor]

What the fuck was Burrow doing:lol

[benefactor]

Are they ever going to stop running the same play on first down?

[Thanos]

Scary to think that the Bengals aren’t even that good :lol imagine if Burrow/Chase get some help.

[Thanos]

An immediate TD response by Mahomes has never been more of a guarantee. You can’t beat KC playing cuckball.

[DAF86]

This would be quite the choke job by the Chiefs.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Jay Feeley is stupid... wtf does he mean that Evan McPherson "doesn't have any battle scars" :lmao :bang :lmao ???? Was he living under a rock during the Green Bay game?? What a total fucking dumbass. McPherson is a choker.

That game still pisses me off, even though GB lost in the playoffs. It could have netted Dallas the #1 seed if McPherson could have hit a chip shot...

For that reason, McPherson will always be known as "Choker" in my heart.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Scary to think that the Bengals aren’t even that good :lol imagine if Burrow/Chase get some help.

The only thing they need is offensive line. They have the triplets in Burrow/Mixon/Chase. But their offensive line is like, really bad.

[lefty]

Det defense lol

[Thanos]

At least they made it interesting.

[Robz4000]

If I'm the Bengals I let them score right now tbh.

[Millennial_Messiah]

If Cincinnati wins the guy I'll be happiest for by far is Joe Mixon. Love that guy and what he stands for.

[Millennial_Messiah]

If I'm the Bengals I let them score right now tbh.

If I'm the Bengals I would have called timeout with 2:40. You still want to hold KC to a field goal.

If you're only up 1 or 2 or tied you absolutely let them score. Up 3? You have to try to hold them to 3 points.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Mahomes needed to get down inbounds there and not go out. Bone headed play

[Millennial_Messiah]

Again goes out of bounds. :lmao what a dumbass.

[DAF86]

Chiefs need to run it on 1st down here.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Monster first down by Kelce there.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Chiefs need to run it on 1st down here.

they need to run it on every down.

[Millennial_Messiah]

run it every. single. down. or else Fat Reid's career is a zero.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Ideally you score on 3rd down. if you don't you kick the FG at the buzzer and go to OT.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Mahomes taking the sack was smart, but why didn't he do that before?

[lefty20]

Wow. He had ALL DAY

[DAF86]

WTF Mahomes? :lmao

[Robz4000]

:lmao what was that Mahomes?

[Millennial_Messiah]

Got to run it and play for OT here. Or drop back and pass and trust Mahomes to take another sack if the TD pass isn't there.

[lefty]

:lol Messihomes

[lefty20]

And... a coin toss will decide the game again

[Millennial_Messiah]

yeah, WTF at Fat Reid for not running the ball? :pctoss

[benefactor]

Mah:lolmes

[Thanos]

Would be funny if KC gets it and gets a TD immediately

[Millennial_Messiah]

The Butt Kicker did it!!!!!

[Robz4000]

:lol of course Mahomes gets the ball first

[Trainwreck2100]

What this has shown is is that whenever maholmes or Tyreek lose a step, the chiefs are done

[Millennial_Messiah]

Mah:lolmes

Yeah. He pulled a Matt Ryan against the Patriots there. They were lucky to get to OT.

[DAF86]

And... a coin toss will decide the game again

I don't know man, neither offense is looking particularly dominant.

[Thanos]

At least they made it interesting.

[Millennial_Messiah]

KC coming up clutch this playoffs on the coin toss. That's the stuff of legends that wins championships, folks. Brady did it all the time. Rodgers, typically not so much. Chiefs sure learned their lesson the hard way from the NE 2018-19 loss.

[DAF86]

Mahomes looks completely out of it.

[lefty20]

Should've been picked

[lefty]

Oooof

[Thanos]

Eli Apple is such trash :lmao

[lefty20]

There it is.

[lefty]

:lol Lionel Mahomes

[DAF86]

Of course the best pass out of the three on that drive is the one that gets picked off. :lol

[Robz4000]

:lmao Mahomes
:lmao dude got clotheslined right in front of the ref with no call

[benefactor]

Mah:lolmes

[Thanos]

Rookie kicker’s gonna choke

[Millennial_Messiah]

Wow, Cincinnati is actually going to win. Who Dey.

[lefty20]

Dat KC defense :rollin

[DAF86]

Mahomes choked this game away. No other way around it. Never seen him so shook on a big game before. Not even on the last SB without O-line.

[Millennial_Messiah]

love Joe Mixon, one of my favorite NFL players. :tu very happy for him

[Millennial_Messiah]

Mahomes choked this game away. No other way around it. Never seen him so shook on a big game before. Not even on the last SB without O-line.

yup, 3 points in 2 and a half quarters is a fucking joke.

[lefty]

:lol if he misses the FG.

[Robz4000]

:wow crazy

[lefty20]

Boom! Happy for Cincy, they're a likable bunch.

[DAF86]

Mahomes choked this game away. No other way around it. Never seen him so shook on a big game before. Not even on the last SB without O-line.

Special mention to Andy Reid for that end of the half clock management.

[monosylab1k]

It’s really tough to get to 3 straight Super Bowls, even for a guy like Mahomes. Mostly because of how mentally draining it is. Not everyone has the competitive fire of Tom Brady, tbh.

[Arcadian]

First SB since the 80s! You love to see it.

Fuck your coin toss, Chiefs!

[monosylab1k]

Joe Burrow has the biggest balls I’ve ever seen on a QB. If anybody has a shot to match Brady, it’s him.

[DAF86]

Either NFC d-line is gonna skullfuck the Bengals. SB is gonna be a repeat of last year.

[Bynumite]

Joe Bontana did it




:danceclub

[Trainwreck2100]

Special mention to Andy Reid for that end of the half clock management.
It was 1st and goal at the 5 with a goal to go and 3 tos. This loss is 100% on mahomes

[Millennial_Messiah]

It was 1st and goal at the 5 with a goal to go and 3 tos. This loss is 100% on mahomes

Burrow > Mahomes.

Lawrence > Burrow.

Brady retired, Rodgers no longer with GB.

It's going to be a great next decade if the NFL doesn't fuck up the tv system they have in place. Also the 17 game season is wacky and stupid and needs to be replaced with 18 games in 20 weeks, two byes. The great compromise.

[DAF86]

It was 1st and goal at the 5 with a goal to go and 3 tos. This loss is 100% on mahomes

Play calling left a lot to be desire on those plays too. Mahomes is the biggest culprit but Reid deserves a lot of blame too.

[MultiTroll]

As only an Andy Reidenheimer team could. :lol

To me if Joe Burrow had not gotten injured his rookie year, would be at or near #1 QB easily. Maybe even as is, just saying his mobility before the injury...wow.

That shrimpy receiver on KC can't catch those kind of passes. Had a worse fuck up in the SuperBowl which would have made it 7-0 KC.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Play calling left a lot to be desire on those plays too. Mahomes is the biggest culprit but Reid deserves a lot of blame too.

yeah, Fat Reid's time is up, if it wasn't already last year it is now. Chiefs need a McVay or Shanahan or Zac Taylor kind of young offensive mind.

[SpursforSix]

Boom! Happy for Cincy, they're a likable bunch.

yeah…they’ve got a great QB/WR/TE group. It may be the best in the NFL.

[lefty]

Fuck Joe Buck

[Millennial_Messiah]

yeah…they’ve got a great QB/WR/TE group. It may be the best in the NFL.

Uzomah is done, so not TE. Halfback yes with Mixon and Perine. WR absolutely. QB absolutely. O-line, they need to nuke that in the draft and free agency. They have the cap space. If they want to win a super bowl now is the time before Burrow commands 50M / year cap hit. They should load up on offensive and defensive line sooner than later.

[MultiTroll]

Burrow > Mahomes.

Lawrence > Burrow.

Brady retired, Rodgers no longer with GB.

Pretty Boi Rodgers will rack up some more regular season stats, that's it.

:lmao :lmao :rollin :rollin :rollin Jackson

RG8 couldn't even lead his team to the playoffs this year... in a 7 team playoff format... why? Because of his monkeyballing his career is going the way of RG3 and it's because of who he is. He will never be 1/10th of the pocket passer as Burrow, Mahomes, Brady, Rodgers, Lawrence, etc. You're just a butthurt woke supremacist. :lol

RG8 will be out of the league in a few years. Too many injuries.

[Millennial_Messiah]

lol, OBJ dropped it :lol

No QB could lead this years Ravens to the playoffs. Huge testimony to LJackson he had them at 8-3.
Burrow would be in the ICU as would 50% of the NFL QBs who had to play behind the pourous Raven line, injury replacement runners and below ave receivers.

[lefty20]

Classic Jimmy G

[Robz4000]

:lmao Crappolo

[lefty]

Oh Crappolo

[benefactor]

These two QBs are going to try to outchoke each other tbh

[Millennial_Messiah]

Jeezus, if the Niners had Rodgers they would be clear favorites. Wide open Kittle and that could have scored.

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lmao Crappolo

Wide. fucking. open. 7 points. That safety didn't have a chance. 49ers should trade Lance and as many picks as they possibly can to maximize the current window and get Aaron Rodgers who wants to play there anyway.

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lmao "porous offensive line"

RG8, unlike Burrow, is actually responsible for the majority of the sacks he takes.

[Millennial_Messiah]

seems like more 49ers fans than Rams fans for sure. A lot louder when Stafford went three and out than when Jimmy did.

[Mark Celibate]

Jeezus, if the Niners had Rodgers they would be clear favorites. Wide open Kittle and that could have scored.

:lol Rodgers would’ve chucked it deep to Adams in double coverage tbh. He already choked a game away where his defense was elite so wouldn’t be any different with the 9ers

[MultiTroll]

Ignorant.

And stop slobbering Rodgers cock. Where was he a week ago?

Good call, tbh.

Vintage Stafford tbh

[Millennial_Messiah]

This 49ers defense is LEGENDARY.... how 'bout that??!??? WOW. No points for you, Matty.

[benefactor]

Good call, tbh.
That drive was the most Stafford drive ever. Marches them down the field, throws behind the receiver and intercepted.

[lefty20]

Damn! Jimmy throws some of the weakest balls u'll see in thr NFL.

[Robz4000]

If the Niners had an average QB they're up two TDs...

[Trainwreck2100]

Play calling left a lot to be desire on those plays too. Mahomes is the biggest culprit but Reid deserves a lot of blame too.

I can't believe I'm saying this but Reid deserved zero bla the freeme for this loss zero. He called the game in a way that put the guy making 500million 5yards from victory. This is ALL on maholmes

[lefty]

Game over

Congrats Rams, l way 49ers are recovering from that

[Mark Celibate]

Rams look like the better team by far, but I have a feeling they’ll have another meltdown to make it knteresting in the 4th imo

Yeah even with Kupp Stafford will find ways to keep the Niners in it

[Robz4000]

Most likely game. Just can't see how the Niners can compete with a high school QB.

[MultiTroll]

Not sure why that negro #11 couldn't stay in bounds to make the catch but good gain anyways.

[benefactor]

This game is basically Samuel vs Kupp

[Robz4000]

Deebo!!!!!

[lefty]

Woollooodujfjwkwksmxkddk

[lefty20]

There goes Mua'Deebo, using hid prescient ability to find the Golden path.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Big answer by Deebo and the Niners there.

[Millennial_Messiah]

This game is basically Samuel vs Kupp

hey, gotta give me credit. I'm the one who's vouched for them all along, and one of them should win the MVP instead of giving it to a QB just to give it to a QB.

IMO no QBs had any gaudy stats this year in the regular season. Fraudgers' scaredy cat ball impresses no one, Brady / Mahomes threw too many picks etc


Kupp or Samuel is MVP

[Millennial_Messiah]

Not sure why that negro #11 couldn't stay in bounds to make the catch but good gain anyways.

Because he's no Deebo.

[lefty]

Lol Nascar

« turn to yer leeeeeeft »

Remember last year when that moron Andy said that Tua would be the best qb from last years class? Good times.

this was at the end of the year btw

[Spurs Homer]

awesome playoffs -

karen rodgers out

mahomo out

first latino SB QB since jim plunkett going to the SB = Joe Burro'

[Millennial_Messiah]

Absolutely retarded by McVay to kick instead of punting there. :lol

[Robz4000]

Will Stafford even survive this game tbh? Dude is getting murdered.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Too early to tell. Burrow is good, but, the reason the Dolphins gave Flores the axe is because he wanted to replace Tu'a. Flores is a good coach but he's a defense guy. Give Tu'a an offensive minded coach like Zack Taylor or Shanahan or McVay then Tu'a and the Dolphins are in the playoffs and winning the AFC east, tbh.

[Spurs Homer]

I figured you would double down on the dumb shit. Since you are incapable of admitting when your wrong

[MultiTroll]

Jeezus, if the Niners had Rodgers they would be clear favorites.


QB Fraudgers' scaredy cat ball impresses no one
:lolAdjust your meds.

[Robz4000]

Gotta be happy with this score at the half after how mediocre the Niners have looked on both sides of the ball.

[SpursforSix]

Uzomah is done, so not TE. Halfback yes with Mixon and Perine. WR absolutely. QB absolutely. O-line, they need to nuke that in the draft and free agency. They have the cap space. If they want to win a super bowl now is the time before Burrow commands 50M / year cap hit. They should load up on offensive and defensive line sooner than later.

I don’t even care about Mixon. He’s a very good RB. And be a good route runner with good hands. But I don’t think paying for top end RBs translates to many more wins. Agree with you. Work on the lines. Because Burrow/Higgins/Chase are going to get paid. Uzomah isn’t done imo.

[DAF86]

I liked that part where they showed Samuel's support for Garoppolo and Jimmy repays him by almost getting him killed, tbh.

[DAF86]

I can't believe I'm saying this but Reid deserved zero bla the freeme for this loss zero. He called the game in a way that put the guy making 500million 5yards from victory. This is ALL on maholmes

You have 5 seconds on the clock with the ball on the 1 and you call a lateral pass instead of quick shot to the endzone? That's an inexcusable mistake by the coaching staff. Those 3 pts at the end of the half would have won the game. So no, it is not ALL Mahomes. Yeah, he gets the majority of the fault, but Reid's gets his fair share of blame too.

[SpursforSix]

This game is basically Samuel vs Kupp

Yep. I’ll add that it’s it’s how the coaches use those guys.

[Millennial_Messiah]

why punt if you are only going to net 27 yards? seriously

[Millennial_Messiah]

1000% agreed.

Fat Reid needs to get the axe. Time to replace him with someone young, fit, and smart.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Fat coaches be needing that Triple Whopper

Fraudgers owes his one and only championship to Fat Mike McCarthy tbh because Fraudgers wasn't good enough to beat Caleb Hanie without a lucky pick 6 from the nose tackle

[Millennial_Messiah]

seems to be a trend among fat coaches, with the end of half time management bads tbh

I guess they start getting hunger pains late in the half and want to head to the locker room as quickly as possible so they can get started early on their triple Whopper IMO
:lol

[Robz4000]

OBJ is killing the Niners.

[Millennial_Messiah]

OBJ is killing the Niners.

I don't see why they can't get off the field on these long down and distances, tbh. Over and over again. I mean they gave up 2 wide open receivers in the GB game on GB's last drive on the 3rd and 13 tbh but Fraudgers tried to heroball with Adams because he sucks.

[Robz4000]

Hell of a defensive stand!

[Millennial_Messiah]

Wow, a st:wowpped quarterback sneak on 4th & inches. W-O-W :wow :wow :wow 49ers have a godly short yardage defense and a terrible long yardage defense, Robz4000 :toast

They have the worst secondary in football and it isn't particularly close outside the Bucs tbh.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Hell of a defensive stand!

one of the hallmarks of that 49ers team of 2019 was they would reliably shut down all the short yardage plays but give up random 3rd and 17's and shit like that. looks like they're back. :lol

[Millennial_Messiah]

They have the worst secondary in football and it isn't particularly close outside the Bucs tbh.
All of football? Not even close, :lol, but out of the playoff teams you're probably right.

[Mark Celibate]

That was a Jason Garrett level of stupidity on that challenge. No way that was getting overturned

[SpursforSix]

Aikman/Buck are so solid

[Millennial_Messiah]

Jimmy G is sooooooo 2007/2011 Eli Manning. Those oft-terrible throws; those clutch third down throws, those clutch late game drives.

[Millennial_Messiah]

That was a Jason Garrett level of stupidity on that challenge. No way that was getting overturned

Hey, on the bright side, one less timeout to ice his own kicker if it comes to that.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Juwan Jennings on 3rd down late this season and playoffs is sooooooooooo 2011 Victor Cruz, tbh

[Robz4000]

Kittle!!!!!

[SpursforSix]

Juwan Jennings on 3rd down late this season and playoffs is sooooooooooo 2011 Victor Cruz, tbh

Buck: “you’re only as good as your third wide receiver”.

[Millennial_Messiah]

that was suuuuuuuuuuuuch a Manning to Manningham NFC championship touchdown, tbh :tu terrible throw, great catch by Kittle tbh.

49ers are truly the underdog team of destiny. Underdogs of a generation

[SpursforSix]

Buck: “you’re only as good as your third wide receiver”.

And that’s not including Kittle

[Millennial_Messiah]

Buck: “you’re only as good as your third wide receiver”.

Mhmmmmm. I still can't believe Cedrick Wilson dropped it on 4th and 11.

[Mark Celibate]

Jimmy G is sooooooo 2007/2011 Eli Manning. Those oft-terrible throws; those clutch third down throws, those clutch late game drives.

Eli was pretty solid both postseasons though, he was just conservative and picked his spots when to take a shot. Jimmy has a weird ability to look awful one on an easy throw then make a good throw immediately the next play

[Millennial_Messiah]

Kittle!!!!!

:cry :cry :cry but butt butf the only team the Niners could beat in the entire playoffs is Dallas :cry :cry :cry

[Millennial_Messiah]

Eli was pretty solid both postseasons though, he was just conservative and picked his spots when to take a shot. Jimmy has a weird ability to look awful one on an easy throw then make a good throw immediately the next play

Yep. But there's definitely some parallels between those NYG teams and this Niner team. So gritty on all 3 phases despite being less talented than the opposition.

[Mark Celibate]

:lol

the once a game ‘Ooga Booga’ penalty

[Robz4000]

That taunting call is gonna gift the Rams points.

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lmao

McVay is literally the worst game manager / timeout manager in the history of the NFL. And I (and Niners fans, Robz4000 ? ) thought Jim Harbaugh was bad at it. McVay makes Harbaugh look good.

[JasonGarrett]

Hey, on the bright side, one less timeout to ice his own kicker if it comes to that.

Listen faggot. Only when his firmware glitches out causing him to stare out in space like a confused robot as seconds tick down on a game winning drive causing him to use his only timeout to ice his own kicker can you put our names in the same sentence

[Millennial_Messiah]

That taunting call is gonna gift the Rams points.

got to limit it to 3, tbh

I like all the CB wide receivers but they all have drops.

[SpursforSix]

I like all the CB wide receivers but they all have drops.

Critical drop. Combine that with a QB who’s been making bad throws is a problem.

[Millennial_Messiah]

I like all the CB wide receivers but they all have drops.

Gallup is the only one who doesn't seem to drop it, but he's a free agent and someone will over pay him. I hope Cooper is gone. They need to rebuild the oline.

[lefty20]

When in doubt, Kupp it.

[Robz4000]

Gonna have to get a TD on this next drive. Anything less and the Rams win.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Too easy.

Just like those Eli Manning NY Giants teams, if the pass rush can't get home, the atrocious secondary can't cover.

[Trainwreck2100]

They are never running maholmes up the middle again that much is obvious. Still 100% on maholmes though

[Millennial_Messiah]

Gonna have to get a TD on this next drive. Anything less and the Rams win.

I don't agree

I am however disappointed in the Niners pass rush. They were dominating the LA o-line at this point in the game last time out.

[Millennial_Messiah]

They are never running maholmes up the middle again that much is obvious. Still 100% on maholmes though
:lol all scaredy-cat because of one fucking fluke play in week-fucking-five of the season they actually did win the super bowl. If your coach is too fat and stupid to call a QB sneak and grab the game by the horns, you deserve to lose tbh

[lefty20]

That kickoff looked like it may have gone out of bounds.

[Millennial_Messiah]

Deebo should have let that go out of bounds. That would have been on the 40 yard line. :bang

[Robz4000]

Think that was a fumble. Fuck.

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lol They're going to rule forward process, and McVay is going to go down as an all time dumbass for blowing all his timeouts and challenges in the championship game

[Millennial_Messiah]

Think that was a fumble. Fuck.

I think it's going to stand, but even if it doesn't, dumb challenge... why not just take the result of the punt? You get the ball back either way... it's 20-30 yards of field position.

[Robz4000]

:lmao McVay

[Millennial_Messiah]

The 49ers punter isn't very good. You need to pin them inside the 10 in that situation. They take the delay for a reason. That's fucking stupid.

[Millennial_Messiah]

:lmao McVay

:lmao dropped the pick that would have won the game.

[Robz4000]

:lmao these retarded fucking penalties

[SpursforSix]

:lmao dropped the pick that would have won the game.
Brutal
