KC fumbled the ball several times but it broke for them. Multiple missed holding calls on them.
Mahomes is the best ever, but that was an incredibly fortunate win. Everything broke for them, as usual.
Yep. He’ll catch a TD on 4th and goal from the one, take a jet sweep for 25+ and top it off with a big 3rd down conversion where he juggles the ball off Warner’s helmet to ice the game.
Tbf the 9ers have had their fair share of luck in the past two weeks so it wouldn’t be surprising for it to...
I can’t be objective because I’m a 49er supporter, but I would agree that there are a couple of big stories here.
If KC win then Mahomes having 3 SBs before the halfway mark of his career (injury permitting) is ludicrous. He’s a first ballot HOF player and he’s not even 30. Reid is an all time...
It’ll be interesting to see what the 49ers do, although they didn’t seem to have any ability to adjust to Detroit’s offense for a large part of the game. I’m not sure Wilks v Reid is a fair fight tbh.
On Kelce, if I had to guess it’d be that he’s almost out of juice and wasn’t great week to...
I'm not a Taylor Swift fan, and my wife and daughter are and I hear a lot about her - so fair to say I wouldn't mind seeing (and definitely hearing) a bit less of her overall.
But ffs she's not producing the NFL broadcast, she's in a box watching her boyfriend and cheering when he does...
Yeah, I already have a small bet on KC to win the SB from the start of the playoffs, and was just going to sit on that and watch the game. If they remain underdogs I might think about putting some more on, even as an emotional hedge.
I think we've been the worse of the two teams each of the past two weeks, but have somehow come through. Great to be in a SB, but they'll want to play much better than that against the KC defense and the best QB in the comp. Without Crazy Dan's reluctance to take points that could've been a...
Early odds are basically SF marginally favoured by the look of it.
On a neutral field, with the KC defense playing like this, and the QBs being who they are, that's mind-blowing to me.
KC have clearly been the better team in the playoffs (there's a decent argument SF should have lost to both...
Kirk would be better than this shit. Purdy should’ve been picked off about five times in 1.5 playoff games so far.
That said, it wouldn’t matter much. Detroit are way too good today, defense is shockingly bad for SF.
Need a new QB, DC and kicker minimum.
That’s probably the worst half of football I’ve seen from this team in a long time.
Problem is none of what went wrong was surprising.
If Shanahan can’t finally upgrade at the QB position, get a better kicker, and also get a better defensive game plan against the run, then they’re destined...
Purdy and Shanahan will get a lot of shit for this, a decent chunk from me too.
But consecutive 3rd and 12 and 3rd and 18 conversions is ****ing abysmal from a supposedly good defense.
The defense can be run on, was a massive concern. The kicker is terrible, and Shanahan starts going to pass calls way too early when he’s behind. Purdy turns the ball over when that happens and this is what happens.
Detroit score again here and they could almost kneel for the second half. It’s...
**** off. Almost game over if this is how it’s going to go.
Kicker missing field goals, defense can’t stop the run or 10+ yard plays, missed tackles everywhere and topped off with Purdy turning the ball over.
All we need is Shanahan to make the most conservative play call in playoff history...
There will be a lot of “Mahomes is inevitable” type chat, and he was good in the first half. But that was a great game from the defense (even taking into account Lamar and the offense’s poor play). I hope they and Spags get the credit.
Absolutely. How is Lamar going to lead them to two scores playing like this, even if KC leave them with time on the clock?
Unless Andy Reid calls a jet sweep to Hardman who fumbles the ball back then this is over imo.
I’m not a massive fan of it, but the penalty is too punitive.
That said, if anyone thinks that’s a soft flag for the chiefs that’s just wrong. Throwing the ball at the opponent and then standing over him is two taunting acts. (Edit: I know you’re not saying that, but others will)
Not that it...
