I’m going with Ravens first, 28-21 over Chiefs. Then, though I’d love to see Lions win, I don’t see how they’ll beat the SF defense. 37-17, San Fran. ---

I cannot watch this game. I like both teams, but I Want the Ravens to win. Once they are behind, I can’t watch. 🙏 ---

Ravens are being outplayed, but that self-pass by Lamar was awesome. ---

> [@Telemark](#): > > that self-pass by Lamar was awesome. Yeah that was like… did that just happen? And FWIW I had anticipated whoever came to Baltimore would give them a hard fight but yeah the Ravens seemed to have started cold. And not one but two big Raven penalties moving KC forward. Then two from KC moving them back. 🤪 ---

> [@Railer13](#): > > FWIW, the current lines on Draft Kings: > > Ravens -4 > 49ers -7 Before the Niners game starts, I’ve been wanting to say that the way my Niners have been playing lately they almost don’t deserve to keep advancing. Being favored by 7 to me is ridiculous, _ **until** _ we knew there’s supposed to be good weather. If raining, forget it, no way. It should be 3 or 4. Thankfully the weather will be good. The Niners better win handily, like 37-13, to restore the dominance they displayed earlier in the season. I hope they win that big. But if the Lions win I’d actually be happy too, for Detroit to go to their first Super Bowl. ---

Thats why I like the Ravens-Lamar. ---

This championship game is a crappy one. The chiefs winning the AFC is getting pretty boring and fuck Baltimore into the dirt. But I have to root for KC do it again. Super rooting for Detroit the rest of the way. I would love for Baltimore to choke this away with stupid and angry plays. ---

I didn’t see a lot of weak spots in Baltimore’s previous games. But so far their passing game isn’t nearly as on as the Chiefs. ---

Baltimore passing every down is playing with fire. I don’t understand their game plan at all. ---

About an hour ago I was thinking about Earnest Byner’s fumble for the Browns vs. the Broncos in the 1987 AFC Championship. Here it happens again. ---

Zay Flowers in the running for game MVP - for KC. A taunting penalty followed with a fumble. ---

I think it would only be fair if LC allowed Baltimore to also have a 9 minute drive now. Edit: nevermind. Whooooo! ---

So he fumbles near the one-yard line, Chiefs end up punting, the ball goes where? One-yard line! 🤣 Then another turnover. In the endzone. They beat themselves. ---
