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.

It’s funny how no one mentioned Dak but you. Again with your obsession with Dak. You sleep with a Dak doll don’t you.

They do choke though when they are the favorites and fail to get the job done (again).

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?

No, but if we erased all history leading up to this season, I'd expect the public perception of both teams would put them closer together.

Insecurity is so deep Cowboys fans think they choke before they actually do lmao

Hey man, if you like dudes (you have an obvious huge man crush on Dak) that’s ok. No one here will judge you.

So this Saints-Falcons game is a bit controversial.

Shannon Sharpe is saying that Winston should be cut and that Dennis Allen should be fired since the players are ignoring him.

I dont understand how Dennis Allen has had a job for this long. Dont think he had a single successful season off the top my head.

Surprised Browns are favored over the Texans, even on the road. People really believe in Flacco, who's been washed up for years, bouncing from team to team? People aren't scared this is a fluke?

I've only watched highlights of Flacco's Browns games, but those highlights always include a Flacco pick, sometimes multiple.

Anyone have insight on why they're favored? Genuinely asking since like I said I don't watch full Browns games.

That defense is something else, they legit can be one of those teams who get to the super bowl with a legendary defense and a mediocre quarterback like Trent Dilfer, Peyton Manning etc

Also might be something to do with Texans absences

I'm hopeful the result this time will be different than last time they met - Stroud didn't play and defensively they were missing WAJ/Cashman/Greenard(I think he got hurt on the 2nd possession of the game - I hope he's back for this one).

They probably should put Stingley on Cooper all day long too.

Really REALLY wish Tank didn't get hurt...

I forgot they played each other this season. I skipped watching that game since Stroud was out. :lol:

Yeah the Tank injury might sting. At least Noah Brown and Woods should be back, right?

Yes defense is real but Flacco also been one of the best quarterbacks down the stretch. It could be a fluke but obviously he probably wont have to do too much, if he can protect the ball and keep opposing defenses honest with bombs here and there they have a legit chance. I have them winning the wild card round and give hell to Ravens, might even upset Raven you never know.
