[quote=mooby;1309350]So SF neutralized him for 2 games and 59 minutes but when it was all-in he had the high hand.

If the Rams win the SB that's an even trade off.[/quote]

I'll take it, anything to beat the 49ers who I despise as much as the cowboys. I want to see Cincy win but don't mind seeing the rams win either.

What an amazing playoff series. Absolutely beautiful (as long as you're team doesn't make it).

I think this playoffs is probably the most exciting series I have ever seen ever since I started watching football years ago. Every game ended in field goal winning or went into overtime.

Re: The Playoff Thread
 

Agree best playoff series of games I can recall, when taken as a whole. There have been better individual games, but when considered together as 3 weekends of entertainment, it's been fantastic.

I'm not fussed who wins the SB, though I guess I'll be rooting for the Bengals if forced to choose. Just hope it's as close as the games these last 2 weeks. After all this, we don't need a blowout.

Why do you hate the 49ers so much? lol. Do you hate the SF Giants and Warriors too?

A good friend of mine from HS lives out in San Mateo and says the same thing, that 49 fans are just unbearable.

I hope to get out to Half Moon Bay one day for some golf.

Re: The Playoff Thread
 

SF has a huge following, fans all over the nation. I've got a couple friends that love them but they are not assholes.. Maybe it's just different in other places

I imagine when you embrace a shitty product like us masochists then watching a well run franchise is annoying.

Re: The Playoff Thread
 

The Chiefs basically lost the game at the end of the half. You simply have to take the 3 points at the end of the half. You had 5 seconds there and you run a play? Why?? The Bengals went to the locker room w/ the momentum down by 11..lol.

Yeah that was sloppy, really surprised they didn't just take the FG there, if there was 8 or 9 seconds left I can see going for it, but with 5 seconds it has to be a bang bang play

Yeah, I'm not sure what analytics they were using that told them that was a good idea. Straight up cocky and showed no respect for the Bengals D. They gave Cincinnati all the motivation they needed for the 2nd half.

I expect more from Andy to be honest. That decision has to be right up there with some of the worst this postseason.

Agreed, a decision at that point shouldn't be based on what you've managed to do so far, but what you expect to do going forward. It's a chip shot FG with a very good kicker, so very likely 3 points. That puts you up by 2 TD's going into the half against a team that's known for it's 2nd half performances. To then not even call a play that gets the ball thrown into the EZ was baffling. Handed the initiative straight over to the Bengals. I bet Reid wishes he'd had those 3 points in his pocket come the 4th quarter.

Victim of their own success?

Re: The Playoff Thread
 

Here's how close draft picks are.. If the Bengals didn't lose to Miami in week 17 2 years ago, we would have drafted Burrow #1.. Clearly he's a franchise changing QB. I Like CY and glad we have him but I'd much rather have Burrow obviously.

Re: The Playoff Thread
 

Twitter has been brutal the last 24 hours or so. Too many people complaining that Ron doesn't need a 5 year plan, the Bengals turned it around in 2 years so why can't we? Well, if the next Joe Burrow is out there and we can get him, problem solved. If it were only that simple.
