SF (-1.5) @ Carolina (1-12-14) NFC playoff

[oldunclemark]

  What was the first meeting.....10-9?   so an over-under of 42 seems high

 

Nobody really believes Carolina will win, do they?

 

SF and the under////seems obvious

[chad72]

I'm taking the 49ers here. Steve Smith is still banged up and the 49ers have Crabtree and Vernon Davis healthy, both of whom missed the previous game (Davis got concussed during the game and left).

Carolina will win. Did you see that first game? Kaep was running for his life. On the road, I doubt kaep is going to play well so Panthers can win another low scoring game 17-13.

This is the toughest game of the weekend IMO. I think I give the edge to the niners just because they have the much better O but then again Carolina's D is scary good. I would love to see Cam win though. I really like him and think he is having a fantastic junior season.

[No 1 Manning Fan]

I'm confident in the Panthers' D and Cam.

I did..

 

..I dont see Carolina s having a playoff offense..

 

I'd take the 49ers and give the points....these aren't equals

This is key, (almost) .always.listen to Chad

[snkdy]

I would rather see the Panthers pull it out, but the NIners didn't have Davis, Smith, or Crabtree in that first game. I think SF wins easily.

[T Y Goodbye]

Panthers have a good running attack, and very strong D...I'm looking for Cam to do to the 9ers, what Kaep wants to do with the Panthers..we'll see which QB can run more effectively..I don't think Cam, or the Panthers rely much on anything else..besides their respective D's..

 

I want Carolina to win, and if they can contain Kaep, he's the one going to be making the mistakes..

Don't underestimate experience in playoffs. One team was in the NFCCG two years in a row with a super bowl appearance, another has perhaps nobody even winning a playoff game ever. Not a good formula for winning.

 

I predict a 35-9 blowout by SF.

[tonychen]

And Cam Newton will have at least one turnover returned by 49ers for a TD.

wont be close..Carolina's not ready

[JWF]

Id say 9ers. Offense is getting healthy and their Defense isnt much less than Carolina's, if at all.

 

Newton is def. getting better but Im still not totally sold on his consistency quite yet. If he wins this game ill pretty much be on board the Cam express though.

 

9ers O gives them the edge IMO.

[Dustin]

Carolina wins 35-9.

[Jules]

I will take both home teams in the NFC because I think one or both road teams may win in the AFC.

 

 

Besides, the SB loser rarely makes it back to the SB and it would be almost better for SF to lose now then to have to go through the Seattle crap again.

 

To be honest, I don't truly even care who wins these NFC playoff games since I don't like any of the teams left anyway though........and I am picking the AFC to win it all too.

SF 24

Car 13

[oldunclemark]

SF - 30, Carolina 17

 

Carolina with 3 turnovers ..Steve Smith's not 100%.....

 

SF seems to be almost the same team away from home than they are at home....

 

we're destined to see Seattle-SF on Jan. 19

[LordHelpOurColts]

I like Carolina at home. I think they are going to light Kaep up just like they did in the first game.

[oldunclemark]

Nobody wants to see Carolina at Seattle

Nobody wants to see Carolina at Seattle

 

I do. Would be a great defensive battle.

SF-Seattle would be a greater defensive battle....and it s the NFC match the entire season has been tilting to all year
