Here we are on the brink of another wild weekend of football. This means so much more now that we are back in the playoffs after a 5 year absence. Here’s the schedule:
Saturday, Jan. 11
No. 6 Vikings at No. 1 49ers, 1:35 p.m. PT (NBC, stream on fuboTV here)
No. 6 Titans at No. 1 Ravens, 5:15 p.m. ET (CBS, stream on CBS All Access here)
Sunday, Jan. 12
No. 4 Texans at No. 2 Chiefs, 12:05 p.m. PT (CBS, stream on CBS All Access here)
No. 5 Seahawks at No. 2 Packers, 3:40 p.m. PT (Fox, stream on fuboTV here)
Minnesota gets the shortest end of the stick as they played last Sunday, have only 5 days to get ready, and they fly west to kill most of a day. They also have the disadvantage of being a dome team playing outside. Minn was 4-4 on the road, but all 4 losses came outdoors. They beat the Giants, Deetroit, Dallas, and the Chargers. 2 outdoor teams (NYG, Bolts) with a combined record of 9-23. So, there’s that.
The rest? We’ll see. Seattle I think is the class of the rest of the NFC. Maybe it’s just the way we kicked their ass, but I don’t see them taking Seattle. Rodgers looks skittish when pressure, and they can go south in a hurry. Hawks 24 – GB 17.
Ravens and Chiefs should roll. Balt 31 – Tenn 14 . . . . . . . . Chiefs 35 – Texans 20.
Pretty sure our game is gonna be another down to the wire nailbiter. It’s just what we do. We play a clean game we probably got em. We make mistakes probably not. In a perfect world I would like to see us and KC in the big show I think that would be a hellova game.
If we play defense like we should, I don’t think we’ll have too much of an issue with these guys.
They lost to most of the tough teams they faced. Except last week of course. Outdoors, short week, 5 hour travel . . .
That’s why they play the game though.
And we are getting a little bit healthy. Hope to see Earl Mitchell in there.
And I think we win 30-20.
38 years ago today . . .
Where were you? I was back at home, sick as a dog, watching on the couch as a bunch of friends went to the game.
Well I am just gonna hang out on the couch today since I came down with something two days ago.
Man, everyone is sick around me. At home and at work. Been dosing heavily on the Vitamin C
Robert Saleh not taking the Browns job (no shit) and will remain our DC.

Man it’s good to be back in the playoffs!
Its buzzing here today. Looking forward to a win and losing my voice again.
Go Niners!!!
NFL Network reports that Dee Ford will be activated today!
The Niners will rock ‘n’ roll. On Kirk Cousins’ head. 31-20.
Alexander, Tartt and Person are playing, just waiting on news of Dee Ford, squad is close to full strength. Rust is a concern but their backups are very capable.
And there it is, thx RT!
Theirs only 2 black Head coaches in football,Tomlin&Lynn so it’s the usual lip service Rooney rule that teams have to oblige too in coaching interviews.Easy to see why Saleh would pass in the world of Good Old Boys owners, who would rather stick to established over the hill coaches,are trying to hit on the next hot shot college coach..
49 Inactives (just announced):
QB C.J. Beathard
RB Jeff Wilson Jr.

Witherspoon had position and tripped.

49ers finally wised up, looks like they benched Witherspoon for Moseley and it’s already paying off!
