Well I am impressed.
Ravens may not have been a very good team but we know all you need to do these days is get hot in the playoffs. Clearly playing motivated for Ray Lewis and

Should be a decent SB, probably not a defensive struggle but hopefully some. Neither has a super explosive offense, well not consistently, should be good!

Didn't even go to Rutgers but I still love Ray Rice. Would be awesome for him too get a SB ring but I'm loving the niners.
And MWH was right...I can't believe Randy Moss never got a ring, he's quite deserving.

No no, the Stillers were 16-0, again, and actually are in the SB bro, you didnt hear? Ravens also went 0-16 for real, btw. Sure MoM will have a thesis about it soon.

Damn impressive Jody, and a team with momentum is always scary but sorry, I gotta pull for the Niners. In the mean time glad pretty boy Brady was put in his place!

Well, now that Super Bowl 47 is set, here's my prediction: a fast paced, wild, offensive showdown!

Baltimore - 35
San Francisco - 30

I don't like Jim Harbaugh. I hope Baltimore wins. He's a bit of a douchebag in my book.

My heart wants to say 4-2 LOL

but probably something in the 28ish range. Like 28-24, 28-27, 24-21 you get it

Don't you remember the thrashing the Seahawks gave SF not long ago?

If the Seahawks can beat Atlanta today they can beat SF also.

Anybody can win

But I see SF stronger, with a QB who's also gets 181 rushing yards, IMO the chances are with them.

What a beat down.

Lets go Baltimore.

Tough loss by the Falcons but I figured it was bound to all fall apart at some point. Ryan was nursing his shoulder there at the end...any official word if it is injured and what type of injury if it is?

Expected more out of the second game...at least it was close for a fair part.

The only bright spot of a 9ers win IMO.

You sure do hate them! It boggles my mind.
And the irony of after telling me how Kaepernick was a better choice and I didn't wanna hear it, until I saw he's far superior.
Well, lots of great stories: The harbowl, Ray's final game, the Niners are back, Kaepernicks explosion on the scene and Flacco finally getting the monkey off his back. Good stuff

I thought it was Atlanta the 49ers beat today. Did Seattle play, I missed that.

This is one of the first times I remember that I can't choose who to cheer for. I don't like Jim H. but would like to see Randy Moss get his due, even though he has quit at times in his career. I would like to see Flacco get his due, but don't like Ray (respect him and his play, but don't like).

I used to live in Bmore, but that was when the Colts were there, but having lived in Pitt also, it is almost sacrelige to cheer for them as a Steeler. I don't want to see San Fran get another ring closer to the Stillers....confused

Somebody give me some reasons for one over the other....

I hate the Ravens. They win by injuring as many people as they can from the other team. They play dirty. I hope the 49ers slaughter them.

They still suck and would've been watching from home if not for a single punt return during the season. They beat an awful Colts team at home, lost the Denver game if not for the most moronic play in defensive history on Flacco's game ending punt, and beat a New England team that was on about the same level. Been saying the AFC was awful this year and if things go the way they by all logic should then San Fran should blow them out (since I said that they porbably won't). Otherwise, we'll be looking at the worst SB Champion ever. Come on SF, get some pressure, shut down Rice, and block Baltimore's front four and it's yours.

I aslo still don't know where JJ get's the idea that I thought the Steelers were a good team this year, or even an average team. Starting to think he's a bigger jackass than I am.

Time always wins.

^And their coach, Mike Tomlin, is a below average coach, time to reassess his contract.

Meaningless stat is meaningless. Wouldn't even be a stat if he's season would've ended like it should have: throwing up a terrible interception the play after wasting a bunch of clock running around.

I agree, he's done the least amount possible with the team he's been given. Dick Lebeau gives him the no. 1 ranked defense year after year and he just finds ways to f**k it up. If Belichick had the defenses Tomlin has been given, to work with, he'd have both hands covered in rings. Beside his constantly poor decision making he seems to have lost control over the players who often look unprepared or uninterested. He lets Ben get away with whatever he wants, has let Lamarr Woodley swell up into an out-of-shape balloon of his former self, and has let basics like holding onto the ball slip away in a landslide of undisciplined play.

Joe Flacco	6-4
Eli Manning	5-1
Roger Staubach	4-1
Len Dawson	4-1
Jake Delhomme	4-1
Mark Sanchez	4-2

Not that impressive. There is records galore, most of them not that meaningful. Up until this year the defense carried Joe Flacco. Is he an elite quarterback? Let's wait and see what he does in the superbowl. After all, shredding New Englands pass defense is not surprising. They guard the long ball and basically give up everything underneath. I could name at least ten quarterbacks I would rather have than Joe Flacco. I hate the ravens and I hate the 49ers. If they could both lose in the super bowl I would be satisfied. Tired of looking at ray lewis. Someone told me the other day he is better than Lawrence Taylor, I think they were high on something or other.
