Your Niners/Rams NFC Championship Game Open Thread

Moving along…

To The Game!

Niners/Rams:

-Trent Williams’ status is “Adamant” and that’s why teammates call him ‘Goody Two Shoes’ behind his back. His qb has said that he has a high ankle sprain and if that’s true I have no idea how he’ll be able to suit up.

-One must think that Cam Akers is on a short leash, having fumbled twice last week. He out-touched Michel by quite a bit but you just can’t be spilling the ball on the floor in this kind of tilt.

-As for his counterpart Mitchell, he was limited in practice on Thursday but I’ll bet that was just precautionary. And besides, it’s Deebo that the Rams have to worry about-he’ll be all over the field and if I had one bit of advice for Jalen it would be, “keep your head on a swivel, there’s plenty of pick plays (you know, legal interference) coming your way”.

-To me it’s a foregone conclusion that Kupp gets at least 100 and a score. The difference-maker in the passing game has to be OBJ-those shallow crossing routes he does so well can be turned into big gains quite easily as he seems to have his old acceleration back.

-San Franny has won 4 straight despite carrying an albatross around their neck by the name of Jimmy G. His nasty 2:6 TD/INT ratio during that time is embarrassing. As is the hypothetical, “What if Jimmy wins the Super Bowl? What will the Niners do next year?” C’mon, if the Niners somehow pull that off, Jimmy G will just be a passenger on the ride.

-The Rams o-line that had given up the 6th-most sacks during the regular season has surrendered but three in the playoffs. Reminder: Stafford is a beast while playing in a clean pocket.

-The Rams have been rolling since early December but it hasn’t been all Stafford-to-Kupp. The D is only giving up an average of 18.4 points per game during that time.

It appears today was not the best day to be in various modes of transit rather than in front of a tv

WCS

Heard Huey Lewis & the News, Quicksilver Messenger Service, and now Metallica for Niners’ commercial lead-outs.

No sense challenging here. I don’t think he got it.

hippofant

Sean McVay looking around like, “Where’s the maitre ‘d for me to give this red flag to? I swear I was just buzzed for my table.”

Sharkbait

I like the play call. Didn’t get it though

Should have done that on 3rd down.

ThePirateSloth

Haha I have zero interest in anymore GoT.

The Maestro

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a show that had a worse final season.

Horatio Cornblower

It’s even worse than that, because the first two episodes were great, (the scene where Briene is knighted is an all-timer), and then they just absolutely stopped trying.

ballsofsteelandfury

Wait, McVay’s father is named TIMOTHY???

Gumbygirl

Unfortunate.

Col. Duke LaCross

Sean McVay’s dad is Shooter McGavin?

Doktor Zymm

Hope Trent Williams is okay, he’s a legit good dude and it’s a travesty what the Redacteds medical staff did to him. High ankle sprains suuuuck.

Redshirt

You can say the same with RG3 and the R(static)s coaching staff.

Petronel

Apropos of exactly nothing, when Janeane was in New England with the ‘Boat, that’s got to have made for one of the best-looking QB depth charts in the modern era.

Doktor Zymm

One of my coworkers had an article about Janeane in his backup job pinned up in her cube, and she didn’t watch football at all, lol

Gumbygirl

He’s purty

litre_cola

That was almost bad Jeanine.

WCS

Are the Niners trying to get Deebo murderdeathkilled? What the hell?!

rockingdog

LOL

Russian lady Rocking dog says hi…

Doktor Zymm

Has this year had the most playoff OTs ever?

Redshirt

Why would you pick a fight with the kicker?!

Doktor Zymm

Why not? Seems like one of the safest players to pick a fight with.

Petronel

Yeah, but wouldn’t you get shit for it in the back? “Oh, wussy here couldn’t go at one of the linemen…”

Doktor Zymm

I don’t think your own team would give you shit for that unless you pull the same thing in practices

Doktor Zymm

Actually, interesting angle, if the kicker takes the bait and throws a punch, it’s a pretty big deal for the kicker to be ejected. Takes away extra points and FGs

FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT

Senor Weaselo

I haven’t seen that kind of blue on red violence since Four Legs and Roller blew up the gas station.

Petronel

Good as Gould!

Doktor Zymm

They picked up the flags!? wow, the refs can go fuck themselves

It would appear that Danny Hurley, UConn’s Men’s BBall coach, is for some reason a Bengals fan.

Petronel

Oh thank God

Redshirt

Well, that’s one way to take care of the Deebo problem if its Revenge Bowl.

Horatio Cornblower

The 49ers have one superstar, and laying him out is well worth that penalty, which they just picked up, so this whole post is even more pointless than what I usually have to say.

That said, hope he’s OK.

Redshirt

I’m thinking just got the wind knocked out of him.

Doktor Zymm

Sure, but the penalty is “defenseless receiver” not “causing a major head injury”

Redshirt

I was thinking the same thing.

WCS

Welp, and Deebo is capped.

Doktor Zymm

OH FUCK

Doktor Zymm

NO KILLING RECEIVERS ESPECIALLY NOT DEBO

Petronel

JESUS DEEBO

Old School Zero

big oof

(door slowly flies open; slowly enters Clubhouse; eyes closed; pinching bridge of nose, wearing a toga and holding a note that reads “Δεν ήσουν τόσο κακός. Κάλεσέ με ανά πάσα στιγμή, Αφροδίτη.”)

So how’s the game?

WCS

Hey, he’s alive. For now, anyway.

Gumbygirl

Glad to see you back from the vomitorium, Citizen Redshirt!

Col. Duke LaCross

Αφροδίτη είναι καυτή σαν κόλαση. Πολύ ωραία!

The Maestro

THAT GAY, HIS FIELD GOAL WAS SO FAR OFF THE MARK THAT I CALL HIM STRAIGHT

rockingdog

LOL

Why can’t I get a car commercial that shows how comfortable I’m gonna be when
I’m stuck in traffic…

Doktor Zymm

Oh no! Stafford isn’t fat enough to protect his ankle!

LemonJello

SHANKH’LOR makes her presence known.

So, folks, which one of these two teams do we think will play the Chiefs in the Super BoOHHOLYSHITTHEREISAGOD!!!!!

Old School Zero

So close, Swarno… Saraworn… Saworrawn… Guy.

Gumbygirl

Skreweditupnek

Col. Duke LaCross

In Jimmy Ward’s defense, he had no fucking clue who Skiwronick is. I doubt the dude was even in the scouting report.

WCS

My bad, coach.

King Hippo

White Men Can’t Catch

Doktor Zymm

Can’t kick either!

Old School Zero

Now there you go again, upsetting Australia when we’ve just reestablished good relations with them…

ThePirateSloth

I love me some good old fashioned insane dangerous disaster movie porn.

rockingdog

Yooooo DeeeBoooo

Big time catch & run for the TD

That was Rocking!

King Hippo

as read on The Athletic a few weeks ago – this is indeed the genesis of his nickname

The Maestro

Deebo Samuel is good at the footed balls.

Senor Weaselo

Deebo? DEEBO!

Doktor Zymm

This game is pleasingly symmetrical

House call?
Isn’t it cute when Troy tries to use slang

Carl Cheffers: the MOST ref name or just in the top 5?

Gumbygirl

What’s Sassy Ref’s name, Jerome Booger?
