Does an NFC West winning the SB mean anything for us?

[THESMEL]

they are both good- and it makes me want to puke- just like the annoucers-
Complain about running on first down the entire first half like they have never seen a good football team wear down a good football team before- Do they even have a clue about pro football? THAT IS EXACTLY WHY THE MIDDLE OF THE FIELD WAS AVAILABLE IN THE 2ND HALF!

Both Hairballs do -they execute the same thing I've been begging for and been blazed for -like a mirror image of each other right to the Super bowl- after both did the same exact thing to the conferance championships last year!

So we fire and hire a pass first coach that has amnesia about how Bear Bryant won when he coached there 30 years ago. It works it really does- every time- reduce the risk of turnovers -THE CARDINAL RULE don't beat yourself- Flacco had no int's in a playoff game-

So I would rather be happy than right- but I aint either- BA has his shot and I have no choice but to support him enthusiastically as a Cardinal fan- but as I dig through his career - and last few QB's - He is pass happy- without a top QB - yet.

The Niners are stacked deep on talent benching the top performing QB in the NFL for the better- Seahawks- Rams have all accumulitated a decade of losing record draft picks- all of them doubling up 1st round picks multiple times - While Whiz left our cupboards bare in our player developmental pipeline- over the salary cap - We have some top 1st string talent - but Mike Adams beyond that!

The consistant winning formula remains the same - like the Steelers( Golem - Golem ) embrace for 4 decades plus of my life- run game balances the pass game- defense- patients and don't beat yourself-

So as a Card fan I'm going against my principles- like supporting a politician I didn't vote for. They have my fan dollars and my heart- it is ok it has been broken most my life- I eat pain like candy.

It means I will be really upset for a month or two.

Tell me about it - I live in SF and have to deal with this nonsense. Hate the niners!

Ya know how college team root for their conference to win the championship... Do we want our division to be known being the best division or does it not matter to you?

Glad to see SF in there and Seattle right behind. You can look for St Louis to move up next year. Looking at next years schedule for the Cards we could lose every game we play. It looks to me like we have the toughest schedule in the NFL.

I'm hoping for a catch by Q right at the end to win the game much like our loss in the SB. Hope something like that breaks the 49er spirit like it did ours. Of the two Harbaughs I dislike the niner one more.

 

[CardsFan88]

Also the way I see it is that if the 49ers win, then it makes our division looks better, and somehow, us.

But I'd much rather just be content as is, and have the 49ers lose. Win/Win either way. But I'd prefer they'd lose it.

Otherwise it's all we're going to hear for the next decade from Niner fans. All their talk of dominance and everything else. Their 'tradition of excellence' versus ours....blah, blah blah.

Plus you know they'll sit from their high horse and throw stones at us. Poor winners for fans. Personally I don't want to do have to read that on various forums. I'd hate it even more if I still actually knew a 4th and Niner fan.

I'm hoping Q bowls over Goldson for a TD. Ray Ray causes Vernon Davis to fumble. Suggs does the same to Gore. Ed Reed pick sixes Kraepernick. Hopefully by the end people wonder if they should have gone with Alex Smith. Yeah it was probably the right choice, but how can you bench a guy completing over 70 percent of his passes? Would be good to see some 2nd guessing for them.

I'm rooting for the Ravens obviously. There used to be a Super Bowl curse associated with losing the big game. See the Oakland Raiders since their loss to Jon Grudens' Buccaneers a few years back. I don't think the Niners will go into a tailspin like the Raiders and the post-2001 Rams did, but I'm willing to have that theory tested.

 

[crisper57]

Might get the Niners a few more primetime games next year, and the rest of the division may be their opponents in those games.

With our luck, we will probably be the visiting team to SF on opening night, so we can watch them get their props in person.

 

[crisper57]

Also means the NFCW would get over that AFC North Super Bowl hump that they've been running up against this century.

What it means to me is that there is hope for the Cardinals. Harbaugh got SF to the SB in two years. CKW got the Cardinals there in 2 years. So there's no reason Arians can't get Arizona back there in two years.

The Cards have a veteran roster. If the new guy doesn't blow it up we'll be in the thick of things. Just like in 2008.

I think MB simply hired the same guy. Somebody had to pay for 1-11 and it was Grimm that should pay. CKW wouldn't go on without Grimm so he had to pay. But CKW was the most successful HC in Arizona history so MB, being the genius that he is hired Bruce Whisen er I mean Arians.

Anyone who wants the Niners to win should be banned for all of next season.

And I'm not joking.

F division rivals. The last thing I want is niner fans talking super bowl smack in the stadium next year.

I want the Niners to win. I'm not invested in it but between the two teams, I dislike the Ravens more.

When I'm reading this forum and Donald comes on to tell me.
How banned I should be.
That I can't be a fan 'cause I don't hate the same teams as he.
I can't get no Satisfaction.
