Wouldn't the Niners moneyline bet make more sense for better odds? You're only getting two points, that's a tight margin.

He's got cte or some other mental health problem. Hard to believe any rational person would've done any of the things he did the past year.

Police have allegedly tried to make contact with Antonio Brown (reportedly hold up in his house) multiple times with no success. Sounds like a looming police standoff. Not good.

For those interested, here's an article on Jimmy Garoppolo's performance this season when the 49ers were behind...

Florida has had an unusually warm winter so far, which is expected to extend through Super Bowl Sunday. High thus far expected in the mid 70's with a as much as a 40% chance of rain. A wet field would probably benefit San Francisco.

I don't love nor hate Andy Reid, but I guess I don't care as much as others whether or not he wins a SB.

But, here's a list of the Top 10 coaches to never win a SB, out of curiosity.
https://thegruelingtruth.com/footbal...-a-super-bowl/

10. Andy Reid
9. Marv Levy
8. Chuck Knox
7. Marty Schottenheimer
6. Dan Reeves
5. Don Coryell
4. Bud Grant
3. Sid Gillman
2. George Allen
1. O.A. "Bum" Phillips

Schotty above Reid? Debatable. And I could've sworn Allen won one with the Skins, but I guess they were all Gibbs.

I do question the order of the list. I for one would think Reid, Marty and Levy would be regarded higher (or lower on the list, I guess).

With all his accomplishments and he's held all those records for years and years with a mediocre O-line yet he's overrated? Don't think so.

Lol, he’s not. Anyone that says that would take him on their team(s) in a heartbeat. If not, then you can file it under “cut nose off to spite face”.
Dude’s a first ballot.

Rodgers isn't overrated but I'd say he's under-achieved.

[DragonOfTheBlackPool]

Rodgers is 1- 3 in Championship games with 6 TDs, 7 INTs, and a 78.0 rating. Doesn't look quite as good next to his impressive regular season stats.

In hindsight, I wish the 49ers would have picked Rodgers over Smith, no question. But things dont work out that way and in 2005, Smith was the better prospect heading into the draft.

[rickah88]

Tom Brady has won 6 in 20 yrs. That skews everyone’s championship stats.
There’s only so much pie to go around.
The A-Rod opinion debate can go round-n-round forever. Canton will end the debate one way or another. At least for the logical thinking crowd.

But one cannot simply assume that Rodgers would be the same QB as he is now in SF. He had to sit behind one of the greats for a few years. He would not have had that in SF.. or the coaching stability.

At least for the logical thinking crowd.

He was stuck with McCarthy for most of his career.

Careful. You might trigger all the Dallas fans that roundly bashed McCarthy for years....on this very message board, no less.

Maybe the second time will be the charm for him, but seeing as he had one of the all time great QB’s in his prime and underachieved would be a concern for me.

On the latest episode of As the AB Turns: self incarceration. He’s locked himself in his house.

This guy need to be in psychiatric care. He’s a danger to himself and others.

He's a little overrated. Apologists out there already blaming the defense for this last loss. He turned the ball over and had 60 yards by halftime. 49ers only go up 27-0 cause he stunk it up the first half.

He's like .100 when trailing by halftime to a winning team. .500 road QB.

I'm glad that most of the media has moved on from calling him the GOAT, at least until the next time he throws a hail mary on the Lions.
