Calvada November 30, 2023 Share November 30, 2023 Forget playoff contenders, injury reports, coaches being fired - isn't it obvious the big story this week in the NFL is whether Taylor Swift and Simone Biles will both be at Lambeau Field Sunday night? (Rolling my eyes so much I may have done permanent damage.) The (other) top Packers story in Wisconsin today is about Aaron Rodgers sending a message to Jordan Love after Love's good performance on Thanksgiving Day. The local spin is how nice Rodgers is to do this, what a difference to how Favre treated Rodgers after that transition, but I cannot help but think that whenever Rodgers comments about Love, he is doing so because he just can't stand not being a part of the story. I wonder what Love thinks about Rodgers pontificating about him, praising him when he does well, urging patience by the fans when he struggles. It's not enough for Rodgers to make weekly statements about his own status; he still has to be part of coverage of the Packers. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3173-nfl-thread/page/520/#findComment-8225552

Speaking of a lock, that's pretty much the case for Philadelphia for the postseason. I saw mixed results that they clinched it last week. In somewhat of a relation to my first sentence in this post, it could be a letdown against the Niners if they lose on Sunday. We'll see. I think I the Eagles might be tough to beat.

That said, I kinda wouldn't want to win this game if I were either team. This is a likely rematch in the playoffs, and I feel like so often, the team that lost in the regular season wins the rematch in the playoffs.

Carey December 3, 2023 Share December 3, 2023 While, on occasion, NFL games with an NFC visiting team & AFC visiting team end up on CBS and FOX, respectively, the only other channel you would have seen Eagles & 49ers was on NBC. It's FOX and nothing else. Yeah they recently had Cowboys/Niners on CBS within the past 2 years, but as good Bird/CD are, we know who would've been on the call in the even San Francisco & Philadelphia wound up on CBS. Jim & Tracy worked Dallas & San Francisco; felt like a blast to the past for me with Pat & John calling big NFC Games on CBS My winners picks include Denver, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, Chargers, Carolina, New Orleans, Miami, Jets, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Kansas City, and Jacksonville. Those final four teams all cover. I do see the over hitting in the Eagles/Niners & Jaguars/Bengals games, while the under is the spot for the Rams/Browns game as well as the KC/Packers game Other than maybe the Bengals game 2 weeks from Saturday, I don't have any confidence that Pittsburgh wins anything else going forward starting tomorrow. Last week was refreshing, but they still have to do more offensively. The defense is great, but teams are still having their way at least once or twice. It only takes one point (or 2-3) to win if an offense does nothing. I might be wrong down the road for doing the following, but I'll stick a fork in Cleveland if they lose (and look bad). Unless Garrett is a non-factor, in which case I'll forgo doing so. Probably should anyway, we'll see. Eagles/Niners is not that easy to forecast. I can see either winning, but both probably need the DUB. Kansas City might not cover, but I think they will due to doing enough. Love has been better lately, but this defense is better than Detroit's defense. The extra rest & venue does help Green Bay though.
