NFL 2013

[Jon Brakel]

I think it will be the 49ers by more than a touchdown and the Patriots by less than a touchdown.  Hopefully the games are as exciting as last week.

For me, after this weekend, it is all down hill on the sports scene until next fall.

Me too although I will enjoy the NFL season through the Super Bowl. Then nothing until September.

I agree with the outcome of the games, but Patriots dominate the Ravens! I hope! HATE both teams, but can't have a division foe in the SB! Oh yeah, and I love watching the Cheaters lose in the SB! It's getting to be pretty fun! 


But Tom? you don't watch basketball, College or NBA?

Was a huge fan when Jordan was playing, but who wasn't?  College BB is okay,  I will watch it if I come across it, but I am not really a fan of any one team.  Maybe this year will be different because the Big Ten is so dominant.  I am like Randy more of a hockey fan, but hard to get excited when the bastards are fighting over money every couple of years.

I watched and played hockey since I was 6 years old. Hockey always get's a bad rap in the United States because people don't get it. The players in the NHL never walked out on the fans but the owners did. The players lost every time because the rich can hold out longer. I was hoping the players would hold out and give up a season to watch the owners struggle to pay rent on those buildings and have the little guy win for a change. I agree Tom, hard to watch Billionaires fight with millionaires! Sorry for thread drift again. I'll go back to hibernation.

WOW, Falcons to pull it out?  That's a pretty bold pick, unless they know how to stop Kaepernick?  If that happens, will be a boring SB!  I think the 49ers tie Pittsburgh at 6 SB wins, as much as it hurts!

[Dan Michler]

0 for 2 yesterday.  Thank God I didn't place any bets.

I really don't like the Pats, so it was good to see them go down in flames yesterday.  F Bill Bellichick.  What a D Bag.  I never thought they were anything special this season.  Would have been more interesting to see Denver and San Fran in the Super Bowl.  I don't really have a rooting interest in this matchup.  I might have to place a bet on the game just to make it interesting.  I think we'll all be sick of the name Harbaugh by the end of the game.

I'm guessing San Fran is going to be the favorite?  Should be less that a TD though.

[Tom McManus]

San Francisco -4.  I thought it would be three. I would take the points if I was to bet, which I won't be doing. The games were very exciting yesterday. Tom Brady's body language was horrible at the end of the game.  It looked like he didn't even want to be out there.

Losing sucks!

[Dan Michler]

I agree Tom.  If I were to bet on the game, I think I'd take Baltimore and the points, or Baltimore on the moneyline.  Then again, I've gone against San Fran in every round and been way wrong.  My gut feeling is to not trust Kaepernick.  He's looked unbeatable, but I'm having a hard time believing he's going to continue this run forever.  Against GB and ATL the running holes were enormous and the receivers were ridiculously wide open.  If Baltimore can come in with a better defensive gameplan (which is likely), I think Kaepernick's inexperience could become a factor.  Flacco has also been on a roll and there is alot more history to go on with him rather than just 2 playoff games.  That said, I could see either team blowing the other one out.  Its really up in the air.

My prediction:

Baltimore 24
San Fran 16

[Tom McManus]

I am going with:

Baltimore 24
SF 19

I am just hoping for a good game. I think the two teams are evenly matched.  There hasn't been a blowout in a couple of years. Maybe this will be the year, but I don't see that happening.

S.F.  35
Balt  24

Even teams. Go with the better field goal kicker. Ravens by 3. GO BLACKHAWKS!

Henry Melton get's the franchise tag? WOW!  Any interest at all in the Blackhawks this year?
