So far 9ers being brought back to earth. Falcons are playing like a team that got no repect all week and it shows. Heres hoping the ravens do the same

Kinda premature don't you think? You made this statement in the first quarter with three to go.
 
Welp. Here it is. For ll the marbles

That was interference Unbelievably ridiculous. Crap now we have to hear aout the oyal harbaugh family of footbll for 2 weeks. Im gonna block al sports on my tv unil after thh sb
 
Seriously? He reacts as if he's never been here before. I get that some people say he's passionate but he goes over the top IMO

Yeah, I was serious. I played semipro baseball (not even close to professional sports, I know), but my favorite coaches were always the over the top ones that wore their heart on their sleeve. I don't know why but those coaches always seemed genuine to me, even if they really weren't. That's how I view Harbaugh. Frankly, it wouldn't surprise me if he did things like that for his players. I'm fine with it.

I can see it in semipro baseball. Im not saying i want all coaches as boring as belicheck but harbaugh rubs me the wrong way
 
Your prediction was pretty premature too. They barely held on and only because of poor officiating

Dont come with those excuses. Falcons did everything to lose last week, they did the same today. They are a great regular season team, that's it.
 
Congrats to the 49ers
Great and entertaining game

Falcons had the shot they wanted at the end but couldn't pull it out

Go Pats :)

It was the same thing that happened against Seattle. They came out flying, put up huge points and were rocking the opponent, then they just quit in the second half.

SF was down 17 points. Coming back and winning that game is inexcusable.

It was a fun game though to watch.
 
Kaepernick simply beat the Falcons with his arm. Atlanta zone coverage was ineffective and allowed the 49ers to gain huge chunks of yards and it was simply their weakness shown last week and carried over this week.

Regardless of who wins tonight, it's going to be an excellent Super Bowl:

Either Harbowl or the 49ers/Patriots which is the ga,e I think everyone wants to see.

I think that is a gross oversimplification

First, nobody quit in the second half, that's just ridiculous
Give the 49ers credit for making plays and adjustments

It was a hard fought game and the Falcons turned the ball over twice to stall themselves
The 49er fumble at the goal was huge, but they still ended up with great field position

Teams fight hard and come back, that is why they make it this far in the playoffs to begin with
A lesser team folds, but Seattle and San Francisco are both great teams

That said, the Falcons still controlled their own destiny at the end
They just didn't make the play on 3rd and 4th down

I tip my hat to the 49ers, their defense was shredded all day like the Falcons
They just made the play when it counted
