Ever since my wife stopped watching the game the 49ers made their come back. We not letting her watch the game again. Hahaha

My wife was wearing a red sweater for the first half, and then got hot and took it off. She's not allowed to wear it on game day ever again.

solidneutral@lemmy.ml · 3 pts · 2y

Your wife and my wife. This is too funny. Let's go Niners!!

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 7 pts · 2y

I could believe that there will be lots of 49haters saying "They are so lucky that an int was converted into a catch, and Lions had a fumble"

And lots of Purdy-haters will yell "Purdy's throw was terrible. He was lucky to have Aiyuk/Kittle/CMC/...."

Well, we're a team. We fight together, even from the hell or inferno.

Sirobin@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Holy fucking shit Aiyuk. Bless that man

solidneutral@lemmy.ml · 2 pts · 2y

So hype right now

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y

Hoooooly shit, what a lucky break. Great reactions from Aiyuk though. And the TD brings it back to one score, COME ON!!!!

mysoulishome@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 2y

God bless Brandon Aiyuk

haulyard@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y

Boys need a good rally in that locker room. There’s a lot of game left.

Sirobin@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y

Unbelievable game. As good as we've been there's definitely been a feeling we can't win when things go wrong. I think the last two weeks have disproven that. Let's FUCKING GO!

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y

Not a bad bit of Game Management™ from young Purdy! :-)

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y

Well, this has been suboptimal so far. FFS...

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Real glad I didn't go to bed! GOOOOOO NINNNNEEEERRRRRRSSSSSS!!!!!

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Now you can't sleep after this game:)

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 2y

Ha! :-)

haulyard@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y

I am not aging well over here! Let’s go D!

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 6 pts · 2y (1 reply)

CMC is finding his way. Now our D team needs a change

tko@tkohhh.social · 4 pts · 2y

That was a great drive. Now let's go D!

haulyard@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y

Bang Bang! We’re headed to the Super Bowl! Super proud of these last two games.

Sirobin@lemmy.world · 6 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Almost time! Whatever happens, I'm repping the NFC in the super bowl.

tko@tkohhh.social · 6 pts · 2y

100%. I'm tired of KC.

BUT LET'S GO NINERS!

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

Yeahhhhh, CMC!!!

And well done Moody on the PAT, hopefully that settles him.

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 2y

Now we have a tied game! Brand new game!

solidneutral@lemmy.ml · 5 pts · 2y

Going to the Super Bowl. Fuck yeah!!!!

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

Let's go defence, finally a big stop! Now, one TD and it's game on again as Detroit start to get worried about throwing away a winning situation.

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 2y

Crazy game. Heart beat 110+. Fingers trembles.

I try my best to stay away from reddit, but had to checkout the eagles subreddit after that one: https://www.reddit.com/r/eagles/comments/1adftd1/game_thread_nfc_championship_game_detroit_lions/?sort=confidence

so much salt.

solidneutral@lemmy.ml · 1 pts · 2y

Salty eagle tears taste so sweet. :D

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 2y

Textbook catch & standing with toes

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

Ugh, this is unbearable. Just deal with the onside kick, that's all we have to do...

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y

Ok, 3am now, got work tomorrow, night night Niner nation! We're going to the SUPERBOWL!!!

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 2y (2 replies)

OMG!!!

Sirobin@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Holy shit

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

Just unbelievable!!! 😀😀😀

They did! Great to see Bosa finally get home.

Hope Greenlaw is ok though. Great tackle, but not worth losing him for.

mysoulishome@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

Well now maybe announcers will shut the fuck up about 9ers playing from behind. Stats don’t predict everything, even history doesn’t. This is fucking awesome.

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Finally stopped their 3rd&10

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 5 pts · 2y

I can't believe they're playing a 4th. Our D team finally had great coverage

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 2y

This is incredible, what a comeback! Suddenly we're 2 scores up with 3 minutes to go!

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 2y (1 reply)

oof, our D team is not ready for the ground game yet

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

And 25 minutes later they still aren't. This is horrendous to watch.

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

This game is insane.

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Good man, Moody, 2 scores now.

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 2y

This miss FG is hard. Now they have a good start position

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 2y

Our defence needs some consistency. In the last drive in 2nd quarter, we had good def plays, but we let them have first downs at 34d & long

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 3 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Oh, our QB protection is terrible. The pocket was crashed sooo fast

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Yep, Purdy is just getting no time. This could get ugly if we don't sort it out and do better on the ground.

Bang bang

tko@tkohhh.social · 2 pts · 2y

Niner gang!

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 2y

Jesus, I'm so nervous to see a 42 yard FG

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

1am here and I'm wondering if it's even worth staying up for the second half. Ugly stuff.

mysoulishome@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

9ers have not been fun to watch the last half of this season going into playoffs. Doesn’t feel like we are meeting our potential at all. I don’t know who to blame or if these other teams are just really good…

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 2y

3&12 and they have a rush first down. Terrible play call

idoit@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (2 replies)

Bosa! Ok, this time, can we make it stick?

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y (1 reply)

Good... One more...

sanguinepar@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 2y

Oh for fuck sake

zhenbo_endle@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 2y

This 4nd&2 is killing my heart

mysoulishome@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Our defense is getting overwhelmed by these good opponents in the playoffs. Is it the play calling? We have so much talent I don’t get it…
