Can they both lose? Lol! My wife is a chiefs fan and my brother in law is a 49ers fan. I would stay neutral.

Good game and good commercials.

Fair enough I can get that.  That’s how I felt about the Chiefs and Ravens today.  I just watched the game and didn’t have a particular rooting interest.

So if it’s the 49ers and Chiefs who have both won it before who do you pull for?

For me I usually pull for the team it’s been the longest time since winning one. So if it were the 49ers and chiefs I would want to see the niners win… same if it’s lions. Also, I just am tired of seeing the chiefs in it all the time…starting to annoy me like the pats, but not nearly as bad as I truly hated the pats and everything they stood for… but I do admit TB is the absolute GOAT.

Then you want the chiefs to win…cause if that’s your wife’s team and if your wife wins…hopefully you win too 😉

And times are achanging ..  the last back to back was tom and the pats in 2003 2004. That could change in two weeks..

Maybe that is what happened to the chiefs fans who recently died 😢 

That is a sad story, not sure what happened there. Drugs may have been involved there. No matter how much I drink, If I am outside and freezing and can't get back into a house, trust me the front door is coming off its hinges to get back in to get warm, I would get the Homer in me 

[NFLfan]

Wow. The Lions are firing on all cylinders. Me happy

[Chrisaaron1023]

It's like the lions are just trying to run the clock down... And the 49ers are saying no please score..

It really is a sad and remarkable story…seems so unlikely that such a thing could happen. 3 of them at the same time and same place…just so sad.

I wouldn’t draft a RB in the first, but I like Gibbs and Bijan as well.

 

The Lions GM has had some great drafts. So called experts graded their 2023 draft poorly but at least 4 of their players have contributed in a big way this year.

I did not hear about that. Chiefs fans died? I'll have to search.

[Chrisaaron1023]

Lions have them right where they want them on 3rds..

I think the main critizism (IIRC) was the players they took in the first round could both be had later. It wasn’t so much the players they took. 

[Happy2BeHere]

Lions are just absolutely firing on all cylinders plus nitrous 

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

I have no issue taking a RB round one if your a win now team. Clearly Lions were. It’s just dumb to take one in the first when your rebuilding.

[Chrisaaron1023]

TD coming up now!

[Solid84]

Jared Goff aka Ryan Gosling. 

[Happy2BeHere]

I’d take the FG here IMO

[NFLfan]

You have to kick it here. No?

To each their own I guess. Personally I’m just not wishing for greatness/multiple super bowls on any other franchise. If the colts aren’t in it I’d like to see a team win the superbowl that’s never won it before. 

I am indeed rooting for them. I follow the NFL, even more so now that the Colts have not been as good in recent times. Many other teams have been aot more exciting to watch than the Colts the last couple of seasons. I wish this wasn't the case, though.  I like the Chiefs. I would NEVER want them to beats the Colts,  but the Colts are at home for the tournament and have been for quite some time.  

 

The Chiefs have probably the best QB I have ever seen. Can't help but root for him. The guy is amazing. 

 

I like seeing greatness. I find it odd how many people are rooting against him and claiming any player in football is currently better than him. 

 

Wish we had Mahomes. 

[2006Coltsbestever]

Lions looking great! 24-7 at Half.

[Restinpeacesweetchloe]

Will be crazy if Goff wins a SB after getting rams to one and being discarded.

[Solid84]

Haha, Campbell seriously considered going for that. 

[Happy2BeHere]

24-7 going into the half! Way to go Lions!!!

Puzzling and makes no sense.

I think teams should draft players they want. There is no guarantee that a player they want will be there later. They did a great job.

[Solid84]

Well gotta go to bed it’s 2:10 am here. 🥱

 

Hope it’s a good game and the Lions win.

It is a bizarre story.

[NewColtsFan]

Michael Badgley with the FG.  He used to be a Colt for a short time.    Waiting for a certain poster to say “another player Ballard gave up on too soon.”

I searched it. Very sad indeed.

[richard pallo]

Didn’t we interview Campbell for HC?  Or maybe it was a coordinator job.

[Patrick Miller]

I’ll definitely be rooting for the lions if they make it.

If the Lions team that showed up today to play these niners shows up in 2 weeks to play the Chiefs then I absolutely say the Lions win it all!

There was a member here who created a thread and wrote that he wished the Colts had hired Cambell, not Frank Reich. IIRC, everyone who replied thought he was wrong for wanting Campbell over Reich. I have not seen that member in a while.

Apparently,  Detroit didn’t want to risk trying to take them later and not getting them.   They’ve been proven right.  And to be honest, I thought as you did, that the players were taken too soon.  Turns out, I was wrong.  Detroit gets the credit.
