I'm going to say SF in a bit of a shocker

31 27.

Cheering for Niners, but Ravens seem destined to win this year. If you put a gun to my head I'd bet Ravens. They are an early 4 point dog - nice bet.

I dont have a dog in the hunt, but I have watched the playoffs this year...first time in probably 10+ years...

So, I`m gonna go with the Baltimore Ravens. The 49`s looked decent, but both the last 2 wins were comeback wins...they just dont seem to be able to get a good start and carry it throughout a game. The Ravens on the other hand have been pretty good throughout, and they seem to have everything firing in time.

Ravens 34 - 27 Niners.....

Ravens of course.

You know they're favored, right?

Jim vs. John Harbaugh will be first time two brothers have coached against each other in a Super Bowl since Lovie Smith vs. Tony Dungy

Seriously, I'm leaning Ravens.

San Francisco- 24
Baltimore- 23

No I didn't.

I'd like to see the 49ers win, but Baltimore have that Giants vibe about them this year (limp in, storm home).

I'll go for Ravens. It seems like that it's their time.

27-23 Ravens.

CBS will be the winner. This is a great story. My wife even cares and she stops giving a shit once the Bears are (naturally) eliminated.

Niners

27-16

I am Ravens right now only because one of my friends from San Fransisco has been on a huge shit talking role recently. Ultimately I will go with my wife's pick since she's been right every year for 10 years. Even though she seems to pick it out of thin air a few days before the game starts.

I see the Ravens taking it. They've been obsessed by the idea of seeing Ray Lewis ride off into the sunset with another ring. Plus they beat both Peyton Manning and Tom Brady on the way to the SB...that's pretty rare.

Methinks Colin Kaepernick is due for a bad game, but what the fuck do I know? Maybe he's this year's version of Kurt Warner.

Their game last year was one of the best ones I've watched, high hopes for this. Gonna cheer for the Ravens, being from Baltimore and all.

It's hard to get a read on this game as nobody really expected this matchup. The Ravens have the look of destiny, but the same could be said about the Niners.

My gut tells me that the Niners will run out of magic and the ravens will win in a snoozefest. 31-10.

Ravens will win. Team of destiny and Flacco has proven himself elite.

I think the Niners are the better team, and will win. But I wouldn't put any money on it.

Going with San Fran, big.

Disagree with this. He's proven what? He can win one AFC Championship game? He needs much more than that.

He's played great in the two biggest games of his career this year. He outplayed Peyton Manning last week and he outplayed Tom Brady this week. What the fuck do you want out of the guy?

AliceManson was saying the same shit last week you are this week. And you'll be saying the same thing he/she is the day after the super bowl - absolutely fucking nothing because I proved you are a chump.

You are talking about last year. I'm talking last week. Just like Greggie is always doing...talking 2011 like it makes a fucking difference while the Redskins are winning the division, or talking Colts 2005 like it makes a fucking difference today.

Flacco has stepped up his game big time and he, Ray Rice, Boldin, and the Ravens' D are gonna end the 49ers little fairy tale.

Just a hunch bro. But just so you know I've been on fire in the playoffs. The ONLY two playoff games I've picked wrong were the Seahawks over the Falcons (and I was close) and the Redskins over the Seahawks. And we all know I had no choice but to pick the Redskins.

If I had to predict today and if the game was being played tomorrow,
I think the 49ers will win by 10 points

Ask me next week and I might have a different opinion

Win a Super Bowl or two? Consistantly win for more than one playoff?
A few QBs won the biggest games of their career this season. All of a sudden they're elite?
Tebow beat Rothlisberger last year.

Like I said, get back to me on Feb 4. I choose to believe my eyes. You choose to talk about 2011.

Funny, I chose to talk about this upcoming game and disagreed with one of your statements.
I chose to answer your question, you chose to go all rolly eyed.

They have won one since San Fran's last Super Bowl. I am going with the Niners, the team is too damn good and they are going up against Flacco. But I wouldn't bet money on it or say that the Ravens don't have a chance.

Line opened
at 49ers -4

How many days until the Mayor of SF
and the Mayor of Baltimore announce their
SB bet?

What a snore

Not to brag but this is the first year I am at 100% with playoff picks.

Outplaying Peyton Manning in the playoffs isn't hard to do. Rex Grossman almost did it.
