Oh snap! I’m definitely 💯 an East Bay guy. RAIDERS and A’s all the way. But come on now, the team down the block is in the NFC championship game! It’s all love for The Bay! 
And this definitely isn’t my 1st warning on WRX! Just my 1st from another member! 😆 Is it 14 days in a TO for my 3rd warning with you as well?! 😜

 

When I think of East Bay!!

Since this is late January I will harken back 30 years ago to this day when the Redskins played those bridesmaids the Buffalo Bills in the Super after the 91 season which was just an incredible year! 

No one probably realizes what a great all around team they had.  This might help jog those memories

 

 

Hail to the Skins of old my brother !

I just heard Aaron Rodgers is retiring and running for governor of FL. Seems like a perfect fit! 

I am actually reading that Denver is trying to manage cap room for Rodgers and Davante Adams next year.  That would be interesting.  Should vault Denver up into the upper echelon if their defense stays intact.

In that scenario Rodgers could be basically his own OC and who is their new Head Coach?  

[doctoro]

The Championship weekend boils down to the 4 teams left standing.  The Rams/Niners are another divisional tilt where the Niners have won their last 6 games.  The Rams were in control of the last matchup and the Niners were on their heels thanks to some less than stellar play from Jimmy G. As a matter of fact Jimmy G would be watching the Packers vs the Rams from his hot tub with cheetahs dancers at home, sorry Jimmy G if you have a wife or girlfriend, but that is boring and doesn't fit your persona.  I bet the Niners to win it all on Caesar's sportsbook app in the beginning of the season. It will be a nice payoff if that ticket cash's but I am really surprised they have made this far.  I think the Rams will win this game, Stafford has looked sharp lately and the Rams will have more focus this time around.  I will be rooting for the Niners and Trent Williams to play against the Rams  If Trent and Deebo play I think the Niners can at least cover.  I am not a fan of the Rams who can sign any high profile free agent they choose. Because of location and being in the limelight.  Hollywood lights and neon colored blue and yellow tights look all right, but just come up short in the big Conference championship fight.  

Taking the points and the dog in this fight the Niners to cover 3.5pts 

Side note...I think the Rams win a close game.  I don't think the point spreads matter in playoff matchups as much as some people might until now.

 

KC and Cinncy is another conundrum 

KC is playing their 4th consecutive home game and Cinncy has one extra day of rest.  Burrow has suddenly realized that the 3 receivers he has lining up on the field might be the best 3 in the league. This game has all the makings of an over bet.  

54.5 is the total and I hit the over 55 by a mile so it might be wise to keep pressing the pedal to the metal.  Wrong!  I think the Bengals are not going to want to get into a shootout with the Chiefs.  Burrow was great after taking nine sacks last week, but that many hits start accumulating after awhile no matter how cool and calm you might be.  I also think Andy Reid will try and play ball control offense and consume clock to keep those Bengals wideouts off the field.  

I will Double down on the Under 54.5 

I will lean Cinncy +7 but in no way do I think they win this game.  I love KC in a teaser at -1 Under 60.5

Well Broncos just hired Hackett as OC so… 🤔 

And I know Rodgers like this…

So that is San Fran and the under doubled in the KC game. You say lean Cincy, but that didn't sound like an official pick made. Was it? What is your 3rd pick doc?

There of course is no urgency in getting picks up (the deadline is anytime before kickoff Sunday) by those who have yet to post them but it does make me think. Are the 5 guys who have yet to submit their picks still undecided? These are big games yes, but I would think three days into the week that most of them have the winners already set in their minds. Perhaps life is getting in the way, or they have a lucky day or time that they normally submit picks and are waiting for that exact time. I say many are still undecided.
