Will be rooting for Bengals over the Chiefs in the 3:00 AFC game . The Bengals will need a good effort from the defense although no matter how good they play this Chiefs team is going to put up points . So Joe Burrows , Joe Mixon and there very talented WRs are going to have to score and play well no turnovers is key . If they can do that I see a . Bengals win 34-31 49ers vs Rams 6:30 Will be rooting for the 49ers in this game . The 49ers defense is going to need to pressure Matt Stafford while only rushing 4 linemen and not blitzing to much . This way they can drop back a couple of line backers to help cover the Rams great WRs . If they can do this and run the football effectively thereby keeping the ball out of the Rams hands they have a good chance to win . 49ers win 31-28 Edited January 30, 2022 by clammboy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unfortunately I am a Dolphins fan and they just keep going downhill so this is all I got left . Edited January 30, 2022 by clammboy 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you meant get to the super bowl .The Bengals are one of 12 teams that have never won a super bowl . 49er loss killed me in my fantasy playoff footbal pool but they covered the spread so I won my bet anyway got 3.5 points and they lost by 3 so thats good .

Nope... Early prediction... The Bengals will be Super Bowl Champs for the first time in their franchise... (1 for 2) Think reverse psychology compared to the squad that lost the 2 past games...I have confidence based on the past analytics i've done. Bengals can get it done.. Bengals will win the big one.. (Plus I hate LA with disdain.... Sorry Boggszy). Edited the post to relieve confusion Edited January 31, 2022 by Navalpride33 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
17,317 [WOLF5] HazeGrayUnderway [WOLF5] Members 38,200 posts 30,952 battles Report post #11 Posted February 2, 2022 (edited) I'm a 49er fan, so I'm biased towards the Bengals in the Super Bowl It's going to be interesting because there's several key wildcard situations for the game. Rams offense is great but I still think Stafford is the big question mark there despite the numbers he puts up. Every game he is guaranteed to chuck up "Lions" passes that are up for easy interceptions. Matter of fact, if this 49er DB made this super easy INT, the 49ers would be the ones going to the SB, not the Rams, and Jimmy Garappolo would not have had that embarrassing last drive. If Stafford doesn't do stupid gaffes like that, then the Bengals have a tough job because the Rams are pretty good overall. The next big question mark in this coming SB is the Bengals offensive line. Can it hold up against the Rams pass rush? The Rams defensive line is very good and I've seen talk about how porous the Bengals OL is. Patrick Mahomes in the SB against the Buccaneers was running for his life because the pass protection was simply not there. The one thing that the Bengals do have that my 49ers have lacked for years now is a QB that they can rely on. Their OL will have one helluva time trying to protect him. If they can do that, then the Bengals have a good fighter's chance. Of course, crazy stuff can happen still. I still remember the heavily favored, then undefeated 2007 Patriots who were torching the league that year, that everyone was crowning "Undefeated Champs" even before the Super Bowl got beaten by the Wildcard team New York Giants in the Super Bowl.

1,801 RainbowFartingUnicorn Members 5,055 posts 14,302 battles Report post #12 Posted February 3, 2022 I am not an expert, but I was pleased that Joe Burrow and the Bengals and Matt Stafford all get to play in the Super Bowl. I think honestly neither quarterback is as good as several of the quarterbacks on teams that have fallen by the wayside in the postseason, but each of the teams with a better quarterback was let down in some way by a poorer than average performance by some component of their team. I'd kind of prefer the Bengals to win, but if Matt Stafford gets a Super Bowl ring after languishing with the Lions for so long, that would not be a bad thing. I think Burrow may be a better quarterback, though. Stafford was doing exactly what you said, he was throwing some wild-ish passes that only luck and talented receivers were preventing from turning into picks.
