That's game.

Can't believe the Lions are in the NFCC.

Packers really blew it.

Oh well, it's cool to see the Lions fans getting excited here. Bill's fans probably be pretty giddy too in about 4 hours. But been a long time since that Lions and Red Skins NFC Title game.

49ers will win easily.

Lions have shown over the past two years they can't handle the top teams in the league. Even last week against the Rams they needed so many mistakes to get by a mediocre team like LA because McVey can coach enough to attack the weaknesses of Detroit and they don't have the coaching to deal with it.

This is the perfect match-up for the 49ers after not looking great against GB, they can work they kinks out and get ready for the AFC team they will face and will be a real problem for them.

Cokehead Collinsworth can sometimes be right, Evans needed to sell that better.

Baker can still throw a good ball. And not messing around and trying to be cute...throw to your star players in Evans.

Maybe. But no one thought the Packers had much of a chance, and they very nearly pulled it off...

Assuming Deebo is healthy the Niners will and should be strong favorites. Detroit definitely has a better chance simply because Campbell might take enough risks to steal it.

I expect the 49'ers would be like a 7 point favorite to open. Total should be around 51.

Packers got the Niners worst game and still lost. They also had a QB that can play much better than Goof.

There is always a chance in a one off game, but the Lions have been neck and neck against two mediocre teams and in the past two years have shown they struggle with good teams, they should not be much of a concern for the Niners as long as SF shows up.

Prediction. Baker throws a TD but then a pick 2 on the 2 point try.
