Choke is when you have a clear advantage but fail to capitalize it right? Niners not winning the NFC definitely a choke imo, then depends on who they play in the super bowl.

I am really bummed Darnold lost the game, really slowed down the Purdy post business. I still have hope for Dak total stats posts.

The 49ers are the favorites to win it all. Much more than the Cowboys ever have been and much more than the Cowboys are.

If the 49ers not bringing one home this year isn't a choke, then Dallas has never choked.

Ya know when you are + on odds that means you are an underdog. There are levels to this, Niners are an underdog to win the super bowl, they are just less underdogs than anyone else. I know you want less ridicule coming towards Dallas but this aint helping lmao.

I know how odds work, the 49ers have better odds than anyone.

AGAIN, if them not winning isn't a choke, then Dallas has never choked.


It's also been a longer wait for 49er fans in terms of winning a ring than Dallas.

It's people like you trying to force a narrative that is more deserved with them because Dallas triggers you for some weird reason.

How emotional Cowboys fans get about Dak makes you an easy target lol. Eagles fans and Niners fans are not like this for example, when they are realistic about their quarterbacks and they all say they would can their quarterbacks if their teams cant do better than divisional round in eight years lol.

Dunno why you are stuck at this choke business, dont think anyone said Dallas choked unless they are talking about a specific game. People are just saying Dak hasnt been a player that could carry a team in the playoffs and there is 8 years of evidence for this, rest of it just your insecurity oozing because you cant handle criticism of your quarterback as if you are Dak mother or something.

Exactly

Except for the 49ers. If they lose its definitely a choke.

If they lose to Cowboys, yes I agree it is a choke. Shouldnt lose to teams that are not on your tier.

Exactly, if they lose to the Cowboys it's a choke.

Oh but also of they lose to anyone else.

that's not what odds show

we'll see what AFC brings, unlike NFC there are some big time quarterbacks there

49ers losing to the Ravens in the SB wouldn't be a choke.

Interesting that the Bills moved to third in odds; must be because gamblers are trusting Josh Allen.

If you have a good quarterback you can knock down any team and make a run.

Niners' odds would be much higher in AFC, might even be underdog against few teams depending on other results

Because they are the favorites

But the chance to win the Super Bowl is lower than the chance to win the conference championship.

The 49ers are only the betting favorites because the public expects the Cowboys to choke.

So then you think the Cowboys are a better team than the Niners?

I mean, for as much **** as the Cowboys get for failing to live up to the glory they had in the 90s...the 49ers are basically guilty of the exact same thing.

Their SB win drought is longer than the Cowboys drought too.
