Think the 49ers will win.

SouthLondonRedskin · Post by **SouthLondonRedskin** » Sun Feb 03, 2013 2:16 pm

49ers 38 - 21 Ravens

And I'm on a hot streak at the moment, so worth a bet if you're that way inclined...

:wink:

Prop bets: Reed for MVP at 33-1. Gore 1st TD at 13-2 and Rice at 7-1.

Wrong forum. This goes in ATL.

DarthMonk · Post by **DarthMonk** » Sun Feb 03, 2013 5:43 pm

Imagine this thread if we were playing today.

Damn.

I got the 49ers 23-20.

I got the over on 3 FGs as well as both teams making one from 33+ yards.

The hell is everyone?

I'm confused.

Can someone please explain holding to me, because clearly I am misinformed as to what is legal and illegal?

2 blatant holds missed, one on the 4th down fade and the other on that craptastic punt-run around in the endzone safety step out. 84 literally bear hugged his man.

Wow. Just wow.

Jacoby Jones should have been the MVP.

Baltimore is like your younger, less attractive, less intelligent, less popular sibling. They stand in the shadows in every aspect of life. There is no sibling rivalry because they suck at just about everything. But, they're really good at fixing cars. You don't kick them in the teeth every day. You let them have their moment fixing cars. Sadly, they'll eventually suck at that too one day. Be proud of them for not tearing tickets at the theater. Just let them have their moment.

HAIL

Excuse me? Ummm... no.

Two points...
1: Baltimore IS NOT DMV. A scan of a Google Map would help.
2: Redskins 1, Ravens 0

you're probably right....I'm west coast and the DMV means: Department of Motor Vehicles

It was totally funny to hear Jim Harbaugh crying about the no-call on fourth down, when that's the same no-call that got them into the SB in the first place.
ROTFALMAO

Funny though it may be, it doesn't make him wrong. Illegal is illegal, regardless of past wrongs being let go (something about 2 wrongs not making a right or, you know, Ravens win! Ravens win! so I guess, nevermind?).

Which came first? The push off... or the hold...

Meh.

DarthMonk · Post by **DarthMonk** » Tue Feb 05, 2013 8:11 pm

There were a lot of non-calls in the game.

As for execution - Kap missed a wide open dude early leading to a FG. On the other two "biggest plays" the Ravens zero blitzed (on the 2-point try and on the final offensive play by the Niners) and the Niners could not make either play.

If Crab had simply bolted for the corner it was probalby a TD. It was a hot read and the defender was playing inside. Why engage? Where was the pistol when they had 4 tries from the 7?

The game was pretty much a coin flip.

Had the Niners scored at the end they would have gone for 2 to establish a 3 point lead - something they would not have needed to try had they simply kicked for 1 point at the 9:57 mark. I know they were trying to tie it up but 10 minutes is a lot of football. They also threw away 2 time outs.

No one to blame but themselves ultimately.

that makes 2 in a row where the team that won the Super Bowl was not one of the best teams in the NFL

as someone said "spit happens" - no big deal

cannot wait to begin the chase ...

Meh.

The hold. For me, the flag for that stops the play, so the push off doesn't actually happen. Sort of like an offensive hold stops the play and the 12 yard run that it led to, is negated.

All of this is absolutely true. And, imho, absolutely irrelevant with respect to the hold that was not called on 4th and goal at the end of the game. Rules are rules and swallowing the whistle there was (football wise) unconscionable.

But it wasn't my team that got hosed, so I suppose its not worth really bothering with.

Not to mention, it still means the Redskins come back in '88 is still the largest deficit overcome to win a SB.

I think of it like a fight.. don't leave it up to the judges. The whinners did. Played pike crap until the blackout, and didn't deserve a close call. Was it within the five yards? Was it accidental, was the ball in the air, was it two sided? How catchable was the ball?
I wouldnt have called it. That important of a play, that big, a little bumpin is allowed. Let em play. Kap shoulda put a better throw on him or maybe a better call.. or maybe not turn the ball over earlier. Champs don't leave it in the hands of the refs. Good non call.
