Green Bay is a bit of a paper tiger. If you can **** up Rodgers you can beat them. Green Bay's defense was rated 22nd in DVOA and their special teams is 32nd. SO hit them hard and shut down their top notch passing offense and they don't have much.

Tampa is the top team in the NFC overall.

Mitchell didn't even play in the first game.

I think niners end up punching them in the mouth early like you said by holding the ball most of the first half and get a lead going into halftime. Get over 150 yards rushing and the game is ours.

NFL disciplines refs for bad calls in Bengals/Raiders game. Just pouring salt in my wounds now.

They should be firing the asshole referee in the Dallas/SF game and don't get me wrong, SF totally earned the victory and the Cowboys totally sucked ass. No questions or doubts here. The fact that the POS referee can do what he did and still have a job is why the NFL should just be shut down until somebody comes along who can clean up the mess.

Just promise me the Niners will kick the living **** out of that arrogant POS Arrogant Rodgers. Now that the Pats are out I only need to get rid of the Rams and possibly the Bucs, depending on how the Niners fare this weekend.

Arians's time in the NFL seems to be running out. Slapping a player in the head is ****ing stupid. His logic for it is even dumber. My guess is once Brady retires Arians is fired.

One of the Bucs, Rams or Packers are probably making the SB. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news here.

Are you talking about how he touched the ball at the end?

Isn't that a rule?

Wouldn't that be more on Dak and the ridiculous play call at the end there?

Niners baby!

As healthy as they've been all year. Especially in the secondary.

Niners are tough, just dont see how Jimmy out-duels Rodgers unless SF has an unreal day on the ground and the defense forces a couple turnovers. They really need Nick Bosa on Saturday.

Packers are awful against the run.

Mitchell didn't play in the early season game.

I think we could demoralize them early on. NFC Championship game from two years ago really isn't all that long ago.

I've already said the victory was well deserved by SF and the loss was squarely shoulder of the Cowboys, especially Dak. I'm talking about how the referee conducted himself throughout the game, at the end where he ran up there from like the 50 yard line, ran into Dak, then ran into the center, then picked up and moved the ball back and forth like 3 different times, then finally moved out of the way. Plus remember the play where he stood there earlier in the game, holding the ball with both sides lined up and ready but then wouldn't move until there was 1 second left on the play clock then they threw a flag on Dallas for delay of game. The guy is either incompetent or up to no good, I have no idea which but it makes disgusted (though not at all surprised) how the NFL and the refs union is taking up for him.

I repeat these plays are very suspicious to anyone who isn't a Cowboys hater, but they still had absolutely nothing to do with how SF earned the victory by really dominating the game most of the way, and Dallas earned the loss by looking like a collection of raw, uncoached, undisciplined, clueless boobs, led by a clueless $40M QB who's obviously playing scared (I'm guessing because of how badly he broke his leg but who knows for sure) and a clueless head coach who is probably still trying to figure out what happened 4 days ago.

By the way, watch out for those conveniently missed offensive holding calls on GB's O-line, and plenty of phantom defensive holding and defensive pass interference calls on your secondary this weekend.
 
I didn't watch the whole game only the last play but the than the ref moving the ball back then right back where the center had it I don't see what he did wrong. The players formed a wall blocking the ref in an attempt to get the next play off. If not for that they might have gotten it off.

Yeah it's bad coaching that gets you there. The receiver should immediately flip the ball to the ref to spot it.
 
Yeah - Not sure how that game was on the refs at all.

I get being upset losing the game but seriously...
 
One rule change I would like to see in the NFL is that the clock stops momentarily on first down like in HS and college. However, just do it in the last 2 minutes of a half. It'll make for more exciting games at the end. I realize they'd never go for it because it would make games longer.

It would make timeouts effectively meaningless.
 
I don't know if you guys are talking about somebody else or if you're just not reading what I'm writing. To recap:

San Francisco earned the victory by totally outplaying the Cowboys, period!

Dallas earned the loss by going through the game with their heads up their collective arses, period.

San Francisco deserved to win, period.

Dallas deserved to lose, period.

My beef with the referee is totally separate of the outcome of the game, period.

It's apples and oranges. It's like criticizing the fans for throwing stuff on the field after the game. It's true but it didn't have anything to do with the outcome either.
