WEEK 16 GAMES THAT MATTER

[Anonymous]

Also Brees handed you that Saints game with two awful interceptions. Kaepernick should have two road losses in a row, because he sure as hell didn't do enough to win that game. The only reason the 49ers won road games against the Saints and Patriots is the other team turning the ball over (and not just your defense forcing turnovers. Those passes by Brees were godawful, and those turnovers by the Patriots were completely uncharacteristic of them. You got lucky) . If you really think Kaepernick can win 2 road games (3 if you count the Super Bowl) in a row against playoff oppenents, you're deluding yourself. If you really think the Patriots will completely shit the bed again if they play SF in the Super Bowl, you're deluding yourself.

Your trash, classless, scumbag fanbase (and I'm not just trolling, I've known many SF fans in real life, complete assholes most of them) will not be celebrating a championship if the 49ers don't get a bye, and even then it's doubtful. I would bet my life on it, and I would be completely confident that I would win that bet.

This is a perfect example why i love this place! Outside of here you might see this kind of venom on the eagles boards. Such venom!!!

Yeah, we didn't force brees into those throws with our outstanding defense. Ok.
Brady too. Our defense had nothing to do with that. Hernandez didn't short that int because of how he almost lost his head a couple plays before. Even if we lose, I hope you feel the wrath of Goldson. I actually don't want to see your rook QB get rocked by Goldson. That would be BAD NEWS.

Some of the logic is busted, I'm afraid.

If we're the 5th seed, we go to the 4th seed -- not to the 3rd. You've got a long discussion about if you'd prefer to have the Seahawks travel to SF or to GB, but the most likely answer is NEITHER. It's pretty likely that we'll play the 4th seed, which will be the NFC East champion, presumably Washington, though that's just a wild guess.

The best scenario is that the Giants are the 6th seed, and defeat SF/GB in the first round, while the Seahawks are the 5th seed and defeat the Redskins. That sets up Giants at SF/GB and Seahawks at Atlanta. If both Giants and Seahawks advance, we get NFC Championship at home.

Before you claim I'm smoking crack, the Giants are capable of defeating SF and GB on the road, and I think we match up well with the Redskins and would love playing in dome with FieldTurf...

Actually, if the 6th seed wins, they play the 1st seed. So if in your scenario, the Giants won, then we'd play the #2 seed and they'd play atlanta. But if the 6th seed loses, we beat the 4th seed and move on to Atlanta.

Oh, snap. Of course you are right. Damn. I would like to play Washington and Atlanta, plus an NFC Championship in Seattle. Guess it won't happen, unless something truly warped occurs, but it's probably impossible, given the various outcomes.

 

[SeeHawkRun]

I agree that, ideally, our road would be @Washington, @Atlanta and then home to play the #6 seed in the NFC Championship. But since that can't happen, it begs the question of who to root for in the 3/6 Wildcard game? Interesting. I Would rather play at San Fran than at Green Bay in the playoffs, I think. But I'd MUCH rather retain the possibility of a home game with a chance at the Super Bowl on the line.

 

[Will I]

I actually think our Hawks have a better shot playing @ GB. We have the better run game and this time of year in outside stadiums, the better run game usually prevails. With a cold, possibly slick ball, it helps our secondary tremendously. Which I think any help our secondary can get at this point is a huge plus. So besides the fact I would have a chance of making it to a GB away game. I think we will have a more legit shot at taking them down.

 

[seahawks08]

I agree too, I think playing at GB is a better shot than playing anywhere else. Aaron Rodgers for some reason is not the same from last year, he has been a step off or he is not well protected. I am not saying it is easy, but just because we couldn't win earlier in GB as we used to be soft doesn't mean we can't win this time around.

 

[Seaman]

I think we want the Cowgirls to win, because I can't think of any potential playoff team I'd rather play in the first round than them!!

I agree! I said this last week! Who better to play against? Romo the choker, or the unreal rookie RGIII? No question, IMO.

Prior to beating the pats, you guys were a big game. Now, not so much.
As long as we get out of there with no injuries thats ALL THAT MATTERS.

Geez, take a xanax. Does it piss you off that much that a lot of our fan base doesn't really care about this game?

If you and a lot of your fan base really think this, then you're ignorant as hell.

The #2 seed has to win two games to get to the Super Bowl.

The #3 seed has to win three games to get to the Super Bowl.

The 9ers have not won three games in a row this year.

You may not think it's a big deal to get the #2 seed over the #3 seed, but I guarantee you that your team thinks it's a very, very big deal.

 

[BocciHawk]

Yeah, there's been some ignorant and weird stuff tossed around recently and frankly it seems like the 49er fans are convincing themselves that if the 49ers lose, it isn't that big of a deal, because the team isn't trying hard, because it's not a big deal.

That seems just really, really, really off the mark. There's a HUGE difference between resting your team for a week, and not, and a HUGE difference between playing three games and playing two.

So, I think they are just warming up themselves to the idea of losing at the Clink tomorrow. Makes sense, that's the most likely outcome, so you might as well get used to the idea...

Is that called "pre-excusing"?

 

[CaptainSkybeard]

I'm confused.... Who do we want to win eagles v redskins? Eagles seems obvious but then again if Washington wins division they are knocking Dallas out in the process... So it depends on our tie breakers with NY? Confused...

Hope we didn't need the Texans to beat the Viqueens :0190l: :49ersmall:
