San Diego way too conservative so far

Cadle annoys the heck out of me

Cadle I can put up with because he's just there to host the show but some of the BS that comes out of Reynolds' mouth...

I picked the Chiefs to win last night and minus the injuries I believe they would have. Everyone wants to blame the coaches for the defensive performance but what do you expect with a less than 100% Tamba Hali and the loss of Brandon Flowers. Two of the Chiefs best defensive players are out/hurting, the backups are getting toasted (that's you #21 Dunta Robinson), pass rush suffering, gameplan down the drain. Difficult to play an aggressive defensive scheme with all that going on.

Add to that your 1st team offensive personnel are going down one at a time. I put very little of that loss on the coaches TBH.

Fair play to the Colts though they took advantage and did what they had to do.

Could be a very costly fumble

[Bull]

Go Chargers.

[mikeygnfl]

San Diego 2 and goal and lead 17-10, Bengals, particularly Andy Dalton are making too many key mistakes. Cincinnati have a talented roster but how many more chances will they give Dalton in the playoffs?

[twelve283]

Good D# from the Bengals, exactly why Dalton just needs to take the sack in that situation rather than forcing the issue. Bengals D will keep them in it.

[mikeygnfl]

Manti Te'o is going to win the Super Bowl at this rate.

[Guest]

Dalton is poor. Living off how good AJ Green has been for him

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

That pick was just a horrible, horrible, horrible decision and throw. Yuck.

Cincy seriously need to bring in some competition for Dalton in the off season

[GSC]

Andy Dalton still isn't good enough. An extension shouldn't be given this offseason

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Jay Gruden has also called one of the single worst games I've seen

[mikeygnfl]

So it looks like the San Diego @ Denver next week and Indianapolis @ New England

[mikeygnfl]

I would have liked to have seen the Chargers go for 4 and 3 there. Get it and they would have won the game. They still have 10 point lead.

[GSC]

The Chargers will have a rubber match in Denver then.

Last matchup to be set will be GB/SF going to Carolina

[crazy_dave23]

Poor by Cincy in the second half

[GSC]

Time to fire Marvin Lewis

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Pretty happy to be facing Indy next week, they've got real issues in the secondary, just need to block Mathis and Brady should shread em

Luck will be a problem, although he's a bit Big Ben esque (mobility wise), and we've always done fairly well containing that type of QB. Hopefully Talib can shutdown Hilton to some extent and we can get it done.

Could be a shootout I reckon

[mikeygnfl]

Now the proper playoffs start. No disrespect to the likes of the Chiefs, Chargers, Bengals and co but this is the 49ers vs Packers.

[crazy_dave23]

GO PACK GO

[GSC]

The playoffs start with an 8-8 team apparently

[GSC]

Guess which 3 teams beat the Broncos this season

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Guess which 3 teams beat the Broncos this season

Chargers, Colts and Pats.

Chargers won 6 of last 8 in Mile High, Peyton has always struggled against the Pagano bros defences, gonna be interesting

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I really fear for Green Bay, 49ers are just gonna pound the heck out of them in this weather

[mikeygnfl]

I've got Michael Crabtree to score first TD. That is twice now he has had it on his fingertips in the endzone   

[crazy_dave23]

This is going well...

[Guest]

What time do you Greenbay kick off?

[Lowlandbrit]

6-0 49ers at the start of the second. Looks pretty chilly.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Just keep pounding the ball San Fran!!!

Awful throw by Kaepernick

[Bull]

Go Niners. Do it for the Bears :P
But good luck to both honestly

[mikeygnfl]

Now why didn't the 49ers do that on their previous two redzone possessions?

Jay Culter just tweeted "Go Niners!" Nice.

[RDuncan8]

Don't think Cutler has Twitter.

[Lowlandbrit]

Kaepernick being pretty wasteful with those time outs.

[mikeygnfl]

Don't think Cutler has Twitter.

Must be a different Jay Cutler.

[mikeygnfl]

Packers going for it on 4th down 10-13 down.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Aaron Rodgers is just a whole other realm of ridiculousness

[mikeygnfl]

This is the 5th consecutive playoff game that John Kuhn has got a TD.

[BamBam]

I'm going to be watching the rest of this through my fingers. Go Niners!!!

[BamBam]

  

[BamBam]

I really hope we don't get too conservative here. Keep letting Kaep throw to stop them loading up on Gore. No one wants to see a 50 yard FG range in these conditions

[BamBam]

YES. Come on Dawson!!!

[mikeygnfl]

Phil Dawson asked what range he would be comfortable with. His reply "No range".

[mikeygnfl]

He added "The ball is like a brick".

[mikeygnfl]

Huge 1st down by Gore.

[BamBam]

Great blocking by FB

[BamBam]

I can't watch

[BamBam]

He looks nervous

[BamBam]

Phew

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

What a weekend of football

[BamBam]

So 49ers @ Panthers, Saints @ Seahawks, Indy @ Pats, Chargers @ Broncos in the divisional round..

Kaep stepping up in the playoffs again, now what can Cam do next week? Hopefully not too much!

[mikeygnfl]

The Packers with Rodgers at QB and the 49ers were possibly the two best teams playing this weekend. If Rodgers had stayed fit they may have done better that 4th seed this season.

[twelve283]

Enjoyed that, good game to finish wild card weekend.
