***NFC Championship - Detroit Lions 14-5 at San Francisco 49'ers 13-5*** (-7.5, 52) 6:30 (2 Viewers)

[Penguin]

Lions with 113 and 3 TD's on the ground so far

 

[Man In The Box]

Not a lot of home cooking today.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Gibbs beast

 

[dickey moe]

Remember when people were clowning the Lions for taking Gibbs so high?

He lookedl like *** to start the season but now he's looking like one of the best RBs in the league.

 

[Snotbubbles]

Lions came to play today.

 

[Wingnut]

Wilks was a terrible hire for SF from the get go.

 

[crushedspirit]

What kind of Defensive game plan is this? Sit back and get trucked?

 

[jobarules]

49ers defense should be ashamed of themselves

 

[karl.Racki]

This is going to be a 45-42 type game, isn't it?

 

[TartanLion]

Oh my goodness

 

[NutterButter]

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Remember when people were clowning the Lions for taking Gibbs so high?

Was going to say the same.

They confirmed the draft philosophy of "the purpose is to select the best players when they're available to you". Positional value be darned.

 

[travdogg]

49ers really need a score before halftime to stay in this.

 

[Desert_Power]

Still can’t believe that trade for Mccaffrey. Carolina was so goofy giving him up for so little

Lots of people thought he was an injury prone guy who had already peaked and had a big salary. They thought they were lucky to get as much as they did.

CMC is arguably the best RB of the last 15-20 years though.

Probably the best RB since Barry

 

[Man In The Box]

Two rookies on offense are already bonafide studs. Scary.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Well poop, PT 2, the electric boogaloo

 

[massraider]

I think Olsen has a vendetta with Bosa he's settling right now

Yup......that's why Kyle Hamilton being a Raven and not an Eagle is stinging....alot.

 

[Ilov80s]

They don’t want any part of this

 

[jon_mx]

Gibbs terrible draft pick at 12

Never draft an RB in round 1.

 

[Todem]

Stick a fork in the 9ers

Lol you kidding me? So much game left.

I don't know if I'd go that far. Faulk was pretty amazing, as was LT. But he's near the conversation for sure.

Lions look good for the 45

 

[Wingnut]

Well poop, PT 2, the electric boogaloo

Hey, at least we make a deep run every year. We may never get another SB, it is what it is.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Ford Ford

 

[SoBeDad]

Gibbs is so electric

Time for RB 1.02

 

[FarFromHome]

49ers really need a score before halftime to stay in this.

Crazy that this is even a comment. Football is always gonna football. Go lions.

 

[The Gator]

Stick a fork in the 9ers

you know better than this. Don't help them with their reverse jinxing

 

[BobbyLayne]

Jack Campbell

 

[Snotbubbles]

The get the ball to start the second half, but yeah, Detroit looks like they will score in the high 30s today.

 

[Andy Dufresne]

They got nearly as much grief for taking LB Campbell when they did.

 

[Wingnut]

Lions look great. 49ers do not.

That is my expert analysis.

 

[jon_mx]

Big stop by the D!!!

 

[BobbyLayne]

3 n out

go sit down

 

[jon_mx]

They got nearly as much grief for taking LB Campbell when they did.

And LaPorta.

 

[travdogg]

As much credit as Ben Johnson gets (well deserved) Aaron Glenn is calling a hell of a game so far.

 

[Andy Dufresne]

Wouldn't want to overuse McCaffrey.

Two consecutive drives WOULD be excessive.

 

[Zeppelin]

Lions defense rising to the occasion!

 

[AAABatteries]

Ford Ford

Is @kutta there?

 

[FarFromHome]

Purdy looking quite average.

 

[AAABatteries]

Wait - how was that not a personal foul?

ETA - nevermind, thought he was out before his leap

Yeah. I just love how elusive he is. Will be interesting to see what the stats look like if he can stay healthy a few more years

 

[jon_mx]

Let's put an exclaimation point on the first half.

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Purdy looks shook from the INT and interior pressure. He’s still young and it’s showing. The rest of the game show what he is made of because he is gonna have to throw to win this game.

 

[The_Man]

Purdy desperate to throw another INT

Throwing down a live bet on Detroit defensive TD

 

[BobbyLayne]

Ford Ford

Is @kutta there?

yup

went to both playoff games & then flew in for the watch party

LT2 would beg to differ man.....Lets see the body of work before we crown guys like that.

 

[belljr]

Do people not look at their bills?

How do they not know what services they are paying for?

 

[modogg]

draft experts made fun of Jamyr Gibbs pick. Mel Kiper "I hate what they did". He's such a moron.

nice reference. I remember pretty much everyone thinking that at the time. Nice to see Detroit outsmart everybody from time to time

 

[Todem]

And LaPorta.

I wanted the Dolphins to take Laporta...but they don't throw to TE's.

And they are home again watching.
