Last call for SB predictions in a game no one wanted to see

I don't mind Flacco....cannot stand Randy Moss...34-27 Ravens.

The game no one wanted to see would be Atlanta vs. Baltimore & if that was the case, I'd probably be a few thousand richer....but I digress.

I'm hoping the Ravens win, simply to give the Niners a Super Bowl loss. We have 1 loss (supposedly), the Steelers have 2 losses. Niners are 5-0 & on the "Quest for Six"

I said it before the GB/SF game. The winner is taking it all.

Unless we see some uncharacteristic turnovers from the Niners, I cannot see how they lose with all those #1 draft picks on both sides of the ball. They're not invincible as I know the Packers, Giants, Redskins, Steelers, Pats & Ravens can beat them with similarly healthy teams. Yeah I said Redskins. A healthy RG3 scares the crap outta me. He's x4 the QB, Colin Kaepernick is.

The Niners are stacked & have been for 2-3 years. They are the healthiest team in the league this year. Their new stadium opens in 2014. They're confiscating knock-off T-Shirts from vendors on the street because, "It's taking money away from the team." It's their turn. They're going to win. You don't have to like it. You will have to live with it. At least they're not overrated like that bull$hit Giants team from last year.

Final score 31-23 Niners in a game that probably isn't that close.

Ravens 27-20. Niner defense hasn't been playing as well since Smith got injured, and their pass rush is too tame to rattle Flacco right now. Ray Rice will make plays, score on a long screen pass. Ray Lewis won't be MVP this time. Half time show will suck.

word

7-5 Ravens. Akers misses a 17 yard FG with 0:02 left in the game.

Cheborneck or whatever the hell his name is throws 3 picks before leaving the game with a shredded Achilles tendon in the 2nd qtr.

Shannon Sharpe lip-syncs his halftime blathering much to the joy & relief of everyone within spittle distance.

This.

My prediction?

I will watch off and on but nothing too closely. I will gripe about someone doing their own rendition of the national anthem and wil say to the TV "just sing the darn song right"

I won't watch halftime or care. I won't watch for the commercials I will catch them later on youtube if it interests me.

Oh the game prediction? Baltimore will win 13-10 with a last second FG. But I will be watching something else and not even notice that it happened.

Did I mention that I just don't care this year?

I listen to the game on the radio so I don't have to deal with the national anthem or the halftime show. Ever since I noticed they were using pyrotechnics indoors during the halftime show, which ruined the third quarter since the smoke doesn't clear, I've felt there shouldn't be a halftime show at all.

NFC is just a much stronger conference right now. Niners take it

I'll be happy if my numbers win in the Super Bowl pool.

Yup, going to a SB party, love all the great food, and my husband will be happy if his number hit. Me, meh, don't care. Only possible reason for a glance at the TV is when Kappy runs again and makes the State of Wisconsin proud, and I know the hairball brothers parents live in Wisconsin. Don't care. SF will win.

Going to see Hairball this weekend

Queens Park Rangers Nil Chelsea Nil

Hairball looks like a lot of fun.

Prediction?? PAIN!!!

24-23 Ravens

Flacco kind of reminds me of a bigger, quicker version of Lynn Dickey. He's a little inconsistent, but he throws a GREAT deep ball. I'm hoping he gets a couple of these on Sunday. I don't know if I'd call Flacco an elite QB, but he may be the best of the "non-elite" QBs out there.

Unfortunately, I think the Ravens are too old and beat up on defense to shut down Frisco and that absolutely great offensive line. A younger version of Suggs, Lewis, and Reed out there and things might be different, but I think those guys are not what they once were. Hopefully they prove me wrong.

San Fran 27 Ravens 20

I don't know, the Ravens have made a habit out of surprising people this season. Flacco has been playing well in big games, and if Ahmad Brooks, Aldon Smith, and Justin Smith aren't all 100% I think Flacco has a little more time to do what he needs to do.

I'm going to say...

Ravens 23

49ers 20

Niners will dominate, but I do not think the Bro will run up the score; but then again, I've been wrong on all the other PO games this year.

Ravens 31
Whiners 21

Whiners won't get a FG.

I'll take Niners 24-17. That's what qualifies as a "defensive battle" in today's NFL.

Ray Lewis gets shut down for his last game. No dancing ensues. 34-13 Niners.

I'm thinking the Ravens win it... similar reasons to what GD posted, and Ray Rice.

there's a game this weekend? might tune in at the end to see where and what's up but otherwise there's ice to be sat on and fish to lure.
I have more reasons to want the 9ers to lose than the ravens. don't really care what happens tho.

Ravens 17-14 (if Flacco keeps playing at his ecent level. I can't BEAR Harbaugh!!!

WHAAAAAAT?!?!

SMELL!!!!

eeeeeeew... yup, smell like dog schit...

Taste!

WHAAAAAAT?!?!

TASTE!!!!

BLECH!!! Yup, taste like dog schit...

mmmmmmm good thing we no step in it!

Yep, good thing!

Smell.

Not much invested in this. I don't really want to see Moss walk away with a SB ring and Coach Jim is annoying, so I'm pulling more for the Ravens. That being said:

SF 28
B 21

What will he do if any of your 2540982538786305709853 boyfriends show up?

Pretty crappy thrash talking there, Iowa Cop lover. Leeds are my hometown team.

Leeds are Ghanaian?

My ethnic and national background is a little complicated.

So you're actually Asian, and have been lying to us all these years.

Greek, actually, with a touch of Egyptian.

42-17 Niners. Seriously. Not even close to close.

That's my opinion too. Niners roll. However, I will be rooting for Baltiless.

We're all losers for watching this weekend. Randy Moss on one side. Ray Lewis on the other. Good night to visit the movie house.

Bears 45
Lovie Smith 12
