Watching the 49'ers today, there are two plays that stick out to me as to why they won't win the Superbowl with Jimmy G. Up 23-7 in the third and Garappolo over throws a wide open Bradon Aiyuk which really would have salted that thing away. Then he throws the interception that gave life to the Cowboys. That game started and stayed on script for the 49'ers yet they still needed a bonehead play call by Dallas to not have to defend two chances for Dallas to win the game. I don't think they'll get away with throwing the ball against the Packers 13 times this year.

He's good enough with a good roster to get teams to the playoffs, and win a game or two. But unless you're last nights Buffalo Bills...it's hard to dominate games from start to finish against other good teams like that.

The 2 vs 7 games this year pretty much served the purpose of making the 2 seed play an extra game that might come into play in the Conference Championship game. The Colts gave the Bills a game last year, but the other 3 in this format really have not been close. That said, I'm not so sure needing to play was a bad thing for KC. They way the Bills looked last night, I don't think I'd want to catch them without seeing much game action for a couple of weeks.

As I noted earlier in Wild Card weekend, I think the team who wins the game has covered the spread 90% of the time. So far this weekend it's 5 for 5. I guess we find out if the spread comes into play on the Cards and Rams game.
