NFL Championship Game Thread

Guess I'm pulling for the Bengals so we can move up one draft slot with those 49ers picks in the CMC trade.  Even with the loss today, the 49ers will have a better record than Cincy if they were to lose as well, but not better than the Chiefs with a loss.

Raise your hand if you though Nick Sirianni would lead the Eagles to a Super Bowl when he was hired.

If two weeks rest doesn't make a big difference for Hurts I think they're gonna get destroyed in the big game. He low key threw the ball pretty poorly today. It didn't matter today but it'll matter in two weeks.

I think the Bengals are getting their first Super Bowl.

This is the same team that once had McCaffrey throw for a score run in for a score and catch a touchdown against mediocre competition and near nonexistent defense. Oh and lousy coaching. It was never sustainable. We as Panthers fans should have been able to recognize it better than anyone. This crash back to reality is in part due to the unfortunate injury of Purdy but moreso due to the fact they have not faced an all around well coached dominant team like the Eagles.

 Eagles didn't impress me at all. 49ers steamroll them with a healthy Jimmy G. Unfortunately, CMAC got in the same situation he had here when they had to start playing musical QB chairs.

Tonight was the first loss for Christian since he joined the 49ers. 13-0

Jimmy G would've been smothered by this defense. Agree to disagree sir.

Yep, we need Cincy to win

And for anyone thinking this is was of the worst NFC Championship implosions, you need to go back and watch the Panthers steam roll in 2005 only to fall on their face in the NFC Championship game.

You need good RBs to open up the passing game, average clutch QBs smart enough to keep the defense honest, and deep threats that open up space for the passing and running game.

No one player can take over a game. You need all 3 pieces on offense. Defense always has the advantage against an offense who can't bring all 3 pieces.

Bro, all of that is irrelevant when a team is down to their emergency 5th QB, who just so happens to be a RB lol Come on now, no team in NFL history would be able to overcome that and make it to a superbowl. Be realistic.

Look at that roster. Are you surprised? 

"When he was hired".  Yes I think it is pretty surprising.

Yeah im not. That roster is the best in the league. People had them as the favorites all season.

They are supposed to be in the SB.

This is revisionist.  People called the Eagles pretenders for weeks.

They had to go through Danny Dimes and Josh Johnson to get to the Super Bowl. Name another team who had an easier entrance to the Super Bowl.

Good job from the retired serviceman on the national anthem.
