What a crazy final week of NFL football. To see Jimmy G and the Niners comeback from 17-0 and straight up DOMINATE the Rams in the 2nd half was great to see.

Sean McVay is a clown for celebrating in the end zone after Higbee's 2nd TD. Man looked STRESSED in the second half when the Niners tied the game. Also embarrassing that the Rams had to use a silent count at HOME. Niners fans took over that stadium!

SF/Dallas next Sunday is going to be a big one. Dallas has looked solid all season long and the Niners are coming off a big win. I'm ready!

Brick by brick!
 
Picks as follows for the 22’ wildcard weekend (Including the Monday night football game for the first time…)

1.) Kansas City over the Steelers

2.) Bills over Patriots

3.) Raiders over Bengals

4.) Buccaneers over Eagles

5.) Dallas over San Fran

6.) Rams over Cardinals

Future:

(Super Bowl winner: Green Bay Packers.)
 
I'll go with:

1.) Steelers over Chiefs (yeah I know, wishful thinking, I'm well aware it's a 0.00000000001% chance that's going to happen)
2.) Patriots over Bills
3.) Raiders over Bengals
4.) Bucs over Eagles
5.) 49ers over Cowboys (again, more wishful thinking)
6.) Rams over Cardinals

(SB: still rooting for the Bradys... errr, Bucs)
 
Black Monday is here...

Dolphins fired HC Brian Flores
Vikings fired HC Mike Zimmer & GM Rick Spielman
Bears fired HC Matt Nagy & GM Ryan Pace
Broncos fired HC Vic Fangio (fired the day before Black Monday)
Jaguars fired HC Urban Meyer (fired after 13 games)
Raiders fired HC Jon Gruden (fired after 5 games)

Might add the Texans to that list. Word 'round the campfire is they're gonna evaluate HC David Culley's performance to see whether he remains or gets fired. *IF* they let him go, it'd be the biggest mistake since trading away DeAndre "Nuk" Hopkins for a 3rd rounder. My Texans has made a lot of bone head moves in the past few years.

Hail, if they fire Culley, I'll find myself another team to root for. Yeah, they only got 4 wins this year, but they were expected to go 0-16. Culley is a damn good HC if he kept the team disciplined enough to be competitive in most games this year.

I am surprised Joe Judge (Giants HC) wasn't fired after running a QB Sneak on 3rd and 9.??

Gruden resigned about two thirds of a season ago...
 
I'm surprised Flores was fired after leading the team to near.500.
Fangio was clearly not a good HC and IMO is better suited as a DC.

A ‘near 500 mark’ doesn’t guarantee the security of his career after three seasons brosef. (Flores was 24-25) His coaching culture was inconsistent with overall team chemistry & performance. They were eliminated five straight seasons for the playoff running. Plus, he seemingly just didn’t recruit the appropriate staff to create the success needed. It’s not all that surprising. He has a great attitude, but that’s not enough for a failing club.

When the coach you just fired is immediately the hottest candidate, you know you messed up. My guess is there were some philosophical differences about the best way to move forward at the QB position and Flores felt like Tua was forcing him to make chicken salad out of chicken ****. In the end the GM wins that one.
 
1.) Chiefs over Steelers
2.) Bills over Patriots
3.) Bengals over Raiders only because I hate that team and their fans from LV
4.) Bucs over Eagles
5.) Cowboys over that freaking team from SF
6.) Rams over Cardinals (This one is a toss up as both teams are struggling right now)

Ooooooh, we almost had matching brackets, which would’ve been interesting to see how that would’ve played out, but since you’ve got the Bengals over the Raiders, mine is vice-versa. I should’ve acquired you as my gambling partner. Let’s hope great minds think alike.😁

Pretty much the same for me, but I have the Niners pulling off the upset. Dallas has been good this year, but the Niners are hot and are almost at full strength heading into Sunday.

I think Rams should beat the Cardinals. Don't think Kyler is 100% healthy.

The Boys from Dallas are my favorite team, so I have to pull from them. Not to mention I hope we don't see another "Catch" type scenario coming from this game.

That 49ers win was something, yes indeed. Thought the Bucs looked good in their win, it was only the panthers but Brady and that makeshift receiving team looked convincing, Gronkowski putting in over 100 yards receiving didn’t exactly hurt either, hope he stays healthy.

I think the Eagles may have a chance. Bucs' defense has been looking shaky the past couple of weeks. But of course, you can't count out Tom Brady.
