Karras is such a valuable player. He has made numerous good plays on this game. Very underrated.

Bengals just outplaying the Bills. 3/5 and sometimes 4/5 Oline winning the battle. They are no slouch and it looks like they are going to KC, again.

You know I was talking earlier about the Bills not winning a Super Bowl in 4 attempts and how sad it is. That's another
reason I wanted them to win so bad and especially at home.

Now that I think about it, if the Bengals win next week against the Chiefs they would head to the Super Bowl again for the
second year in a row. The Bengals have never won a Super Bowl either. They are 0-3 in the Super Bowl. So that would be
a great story too. So I'm happy if either the Niners or the Bengals can win it all. Slightly lean to the Niners as Cmac is my
favorite player in the NFL. On top of that Purdy has been the feel good story of the year. Then add in the other guys we like!

Welp, Cincy is gonna move on. They know they can beat Kansas City as they have the last three times they've played them. I really like their chances.

Diggs doing what he did in Minnesota - whining like diva. When Thielen was on his historic run, Diggs was getting more and more animated about demanding the ball. I think it played a part in the Vikings going away from Thielen the last several games and costing him a truly historic year. Diggs is a turd.

Buffalo getting blacker on the d-line didn't pay off. They also ignored the issues in their running game dating back to last season. At least Burrow and the Bengals are well prepared to play KC again.

I’m always amazed how these teams disregard what’s the patriots did with their plethora of talented yet unselfish white receivers who each took turns dominating games in exchange for black diva receivers who don’t show up in big games or can get taken out of games by good dc’s and just bitch like a child the entire game taking the energy out of the offense. Honestly when was the last time one of these divas “elite” all pro black wr lead a team to win a sb? Moss no-showed in his sb with the pats I really can’t think of one

It hasn't been the best weekend for the guys and teams we root for. Time to end it on a high note!

Let's Go Niners. It's McCaffrey Time. Get out your drinks and popcorn brothers. It's gonna be as the kids say LIT!

Quick first series for both teams - here’s hoping CMC and the gang can put up some big time plays their second series.

Defenses dominating the game so far. CMC (and Pollard for that matter) averaging less than 2 yards per rush.

Purdy also has no time to throw the ball. He is under pressure constantly. The Niners Oline has to play better or it's gonna
be a long day for the rushing and passing game. I will say one thing though. An over agressive blitzing defense is very
vulnerable to some big plays on the run or short passes if you can get past the first defender or 2 you usually can take
it to the house. Hoping for some big plays but I'm happy with the Niners Defense so far. It's been solid!

Yes it is definitely a defensive battle. At least San Fran got a field goal out of that turnover. This game looks like it will be won or lost up front. That's what makes for good playoff football.

Purdy has to get the ball out quicker instead of looking for a big play - especially to McCaffrey he has missed or looked and delivered the ball too late. That's how you beat pressure. Tom Brady is the king of that and why he has been so successful over the years.

So far it looks kind of like the Bengals/Bills game. Dallas is moving the ball just a little easier than San Francisco. Not the high early scoring though. Hopefully, the Niners figure it out.

Agreed.

That blocked extra point could be big further on in the game. Still just a three-point difference so hopefully the Niners can drive down the field with a TD and take the lead.

I think Kittle is going to be a huge factor this game. Dallas is going all-out to stop McCaffrey.

Schultz is a very good tight end for Dallas. I haven't thought much of him the last year or two but he's coming into his own and toughening up which was his biggest weakness.

Great tough catch by McCaffrey for the first down!
