    Brutal for the 49ers to lose both QBs to injury. There defence collapsed too - lots of stupid penalties and mental errors. Dunno if that was a result of the pressure from the scoreboard and missing QBs or the occasion (or maybe a bit of everything).

    There used to be a rule that you could dress a third QB without it being counted against your active roster. I wonder if they bring that rule back after this.

    Playoffs have been a bit disappointing this year, lots of blow outs. Hopefully Bengals-Chiefs is better.

      Man that stings.

      I think if Purdy stays healthy 49ers win that game.

      Good season by the 49ers in the face of ridiculous QB injuries.

      6th NFC title game since 2011 for the 49ers without a Super Bowl ring to show for it.

      Hope Bengals win it all.

        Eagles defence is well known but I think our underrated offensive line creates massive problems for opposition defences. Would’ve been closer…

          Aside from the first drive (which Eagles got lucky with an incomplete pass being missed by the refs/cameras/49ers failing to challenge) the 49ers defensive line was outplaying the Eagles O line for most of the rest of the half.

            The defence gradually lost it under the weight of having to carry the offence without a properly functioning QB

              Some dumb penalties in both games.

              The Chiefs did well to hang in there in the 2nd half with Mahomes on one leg and so many receivers injured.

                My two teams at the start of the season were Chiefs (head) and Giants (heart). Hopefully the Chiefs can finish the job in what will be renowned as 'Kelce' bowl in a couple weeks.

                  What a brutal way for Bengals to lose - avoidable penalty. Poor guy really hurt himself too. Bengals fans must feel cursed.

                    What did everyone think of the refereeing in that one. Some tough calls on the Bengals I thought.

                      Very tough calls.

                      It boggles my mind that NFL referees aren't full time.

                      The league prints money - crazy that there aren't full time refs.

                        A few really rough calls.

                        That was a super tight game. Took the last second dead ball foul to avoid OT. Both teams very good, Bengals O line looked like I feared it might last week.

                        Burrow and Mahomes are generational talents. And it was great entertainment

                          lol, fuck

                          So the Broncos have hired Sean Payton

                          And it cost us (the fucking Saints just got a first round pick for a retired coach, what a gip). Considering all the first round picks we have given up for Wilson and Payton, if this doesn't work (and quite frankly that's an enormous if given the Chiefs and Chargers exist) the team is fuuuuucked.

                          I have read the Broncos actually wanted DeMeco Ryans but he chose the Texans, so we paid what the Saints wanted.

                            @mariner4life The Chargers will be looking for their own new coach within the next 12 months i'd say. Brandon Staley is a fraud.

                            I think Broncos can quickly bounce back with an experienced offensive coach at the helm. He even did well at the Saints once Brees was shot/retired.

                              @mariner4life I heard Payton was 3rd choice.

                              It'll be interesting if Brady gets his dream wish and go to the 9ers with Purdy out for at least 6 months.

                                He better go cheaply, the 49ers shouldn't want to mortgage their future on a guy who is on his last legs. They will need some of the savings to upgrade the O line so Tom doesn't get smashed like Brock

                                  49ers have 2 QBs on cheap rookie deals for the next 2 seasons.

                                  There is enough space to sign Brady to a 1-2 year deal that doesn't mortage their future.
