Are we not entertained? (I’ve no idea of course because this is being typed at 2:30 EST). On to the next one…
To The Game!
Cowboys/Niners:
-Has Prescott righted his football ship? Down the stretch he had 11 INT’s in seven games but last week against a less-than-stellar Tampa D he had his way to the tune of 4 TD tosses and one rushing score.
-Game Manager Purdy (so they say) has at least 2 TD passes in his last seven games. One can do quite a bit of damage when surrounded by a suffocating amount of talent. More importantly, you’d think that an afterthought draft pick would be at a pick-per-game pace but he’s only had the 4-limiting mistakes is the key part of his success.
-With the game expected to be close it’s up to Brett Maher to get out of his own head and not leave points on the field. I’ve no doubt that the PAT problems have been fixed but what if they need a long-ish field goal at some point?
-Over the last part of the season DeMeco Ryans has increased his usage of two high safety sets, thus taking away longer throws towards the boundaries. Look for Dak! to work the middle of the field before taking some longer shots downfield.
-McCaffrey Time For Sure: The Dallas run D has given up 100+ yards rushing in 11 of 18 games and of those 11 six times the number has been 150 or more. They ‘held’ Tampa to 52 but that’s because Brady decided to throw 66 times.
-Two San Franny defenders will need to have bounce-back games. Nick Bosa was held without a pressure for only the 2nd time in his career last week-his 18.5 sacks this year say that he’s a much better player than that. Cb Charvarious Ward rarely gives up more than 50 yards to an opposing receiver but he was torched to the tune of 98 yards and a TD on six receptions last week.
Have at it.
Play action over the top.
McCarthy frothing to sign Mitchell next season with a play like that
That may be a big mistake, but I suspect it will not be a costly mistake

You idiot. Why go out of bounds?!
Glory Boy
Kittle in a Skittles commercial would be great
Kittles and Bits revival with him in a full Cats movie suit
The USFL: Like you’ve got something better to watch?
USFL: it’s better than early spring baseball
Is it?
True, but staring blankly at the wall beats both
What a shock that Baby Shanny understands clock management better than BlueBunny, huh?
McCarthy understands in-game snack adjustments better, though.
(not Elijah Mitchell tho)
Were they tackling Kittle or trying to practice a fireman’s carry?
That replay of the two linemen letting the guy go to make the tackle is absolutely embarrassing.
That’s coach from Letterkenny level embarrassing.
Can Dallas hire Sean Payton now? Please
McCarthy: “Don’t worry, guys. We’ll get ‘em in the 5th Quarter.”
Anger is almost as good a name for a punter as Disappointment would be
This gets me stiff every time.
Takes him a few pharmaceuticals
mike mccarthy wasting precious time in the 4th quarter, it must be january
MIKE MCCARTHY IS A GOTTDANG’S STAR
McCarthy’s a shit coach, but the way Prescott’s played tonight it wouldn’t matter if they had Paul Brown out there.
That was absolutely pathetic.
at least dak got his money from jerrah
Dak doesn’t want to let Maher have the chance to screw up.
Dak really wants to go home huh
Almost rooting for Dallas to score a TD here so we can see the greatest missed point ever
The entire playoffs, nay, the entire SEASON, are building to exactly this
Even though this will cost me $140 in parlays involving the 49ers, it would still be worth it.
Ordinarily I’d be excited to see what my team could do, down 7 late in the 4th quarter and with the ball, but tonight I’m just morbidly curious as to who on SF Dak is going to throw the ball to next.
The Gould Standard.
Brock Purdy.
Another Arizona football talent hitting it big elsewhere.
This drive is like killing someone with a spork.
“Killing me sporkly with his spork” – The FGs
Prediction:
Dallas scores a touchdown with eight seconds left to make it 19-18 Niners
sounds about right
Dallas cant get a stop here. its over
The Dallas dedication to letting receivers run across the middle unaccompanied by so much as a glance is impressive.
He was wondering why the sheriff wasn’t in chase.
The shooter (shot himself courteously) from Monterey Park this morning was just identified as Huu Can Tran and my stupid brain is thinking
this is awful. i too am doing the same.
Toucan Sam is significantly younger though
Toucan Sam debuted in 1963, so he’s only 12 years younger. Sure, it’s a Gaetz worth but 60 vs 72, they’re both old.
Originally identified as Asian male 30-50, so he should really take it as a compliment except he’s dead like Ashli Babbitt.
Toucan Sam is also decidedly less homicidal.
I guess you haven’t heard about Toucan Sam’s years as a child sniper in the Viet Cong
Ho Lee Fuk
I like field goals, so I think this is a pretty good game.

If you think a field goal cures XP yips, Jon Lester has a first base throw he can’t show you.
It was so weird that he named his son Moe.
Nailed It!

Miss that kick and you’re applying for asylum and not going back to Texas.
TAKE THAT PROP BET NOW
If you told me that Dak had money on SF I would believe you.
Christ, Zeke couldnt make 3 yards
[Never mind I am bad at math]
Well at least we know they’ll go for two if they score a touchdown on this drive.
It’s Mike McCarthy, so don’t be certain.
Robbie Gould uses that same technique when people try to cut in the checkout line at Trader Joe’s
9 on 9 crime!
Well, nudge

Goold with the saving hip check!

Big D(efensive holding team)!
Just the dumbest goddamn team.
GOTTAMN STARS
YEEEEEEeeeeeeeeHHAAAAAwwwwwww!
alright, fullback trap!
Buddy Cole’s favorite play call.
PROP BET IDEA:
Brett Maher finishes the playoffs with more made field goals than PATs.
-1200
-55000 now
BLEERGH not wanting SHAN’KHLOR to have all the glory tonight.
