Why is Carroll a better coach than Sean? Why does Russell Wilson, who isn't considered an elite QB, continue to get his team to the super bowl? What the hell is going on & how do we become one of these teams? After winning one super bowl it doesn't seem unattainable any more. Now that I've made myself depressed, I still want to know why and will we win another?
It bewilders me every day as well. Basically since the 49ers divisional playoff game in 2011/12 playoffs we just dont have that comeback mentality and have lost a lot of games we should have won. That was our best chance for our number 2 and we blew it. We blew home field last year to the Kittens, and then got embarrassed by Seattle yet again in the playoffs. This year we give up the divison while everyone else had their arms and legs tied together the whole year. We blew it. I think if we can youthanize the offensive line, bolster up that front 7 and we can look amazing next year. But everything has to play out pretty well. We need to hit on these draft choices, or have a breakout free agent like in '09 (he who shall not be named.)

We always seem to have 2 years of success 1 year of wild-card type success and then 1-2 years of mediocrity in the sean payton era. Lets just hope we can go on a run for drews last couple of really good years.

Wilson typically makes one Hail Mary/Eephus throw per game to a receiver who makes an extraordinary play while covered by a reserve defensive back with that said play usually bailing Wilson out; and, on cue, talking heads immediately elevate him as an elite passer...Absolutely laughable...

Watch, it'll happen during the Superbowl, the Al/Collins-worthless head will say something like "how many times have we seen Russell Wilson make these throws and bail out the Seahawks" and it'll be followed with something like "we're witnessing the emergence of Russell Wilson" kind of thing...

Not that I want to hear JP called it - but you can bet it'll happen...

At least Brady has some stats to back up his game, but if you could draft guys in their prime, Manning is the No. 1 pick 95% of the time...
Yeah, he has had some pretty impressive teams around him, that's for sure. I never really thought of him as an 'elite' passer (or 'elite' anything, really), but just the most consistent/durable/talented of the current read-option guys (Kaep, Cam, RGIII). He wins and he looks good doing it. I really like his composure on/off the field. The 4 interceptions did kind of expose his passing game a bit? ... it can be done, picking him off that is. He's a guy to me that'll wind up on Fox NFL Sunday or something like that.

Anyway, went to the doctor's yesterday and the nursing staff has assured me that the Patriots are gonna' win this one convincingly ... I mean like 38-17 convincingly, so I probably won't need to watch the game, . IDK if they were just schmoozing/patronizing me the way medical staffs do by chatting away on a topic of interest in order to make you feel comfortable or if they just have a crush on Tom Brady, which I think a few of them do, .

With the matchup between the New England offense/Seattle defense, Wilson might just be an afterthought in this game, .

Re: NO Super Bowl for me ...

New England is the better team IMO, but those east coast falcons just find ways to win. I'll watch because we'll be at a SB party, otherwise, I could probably easily find something else to do.

Re: NO Super Bowl for me ...

Here's one reason to go for Seattle...........


Brady fans and pats fans do not respect us or Brees and have put us down. Thats reason enough to be against NE.

Re: NO Super Bowl for me ...

This is like Edwin Edwin vs David Duke in terms of likeability for me. I detest both equally. I still hope for the best however in that it will go down as the worst SB in history..commercials, TV ratings, play. I hope.

Hadn't realised they had played the Conference Championship games yet.
