Did Cowboys get screwed with 3rd seed?

Wezsh0T · Jan 9, 2022

There's too much fear on this forum. Let's just play and win.

THEHEREAFTER · Jan 9, 2022

The Cards have a QB who 1. Is undefeated at our stadium 2. Can play at an MVP level 3. Is dynamic and essentially the fastest player on the field. We KNOW AZ can beat us WITHOUT Watt, Hopkins. It just happened.

They swept the Rams. Beat Bengals, Eagles, Chargers and Raiders. More wins against playoff teams than us

The only saving grace is its the 2nd road game for SF and they had a really emotional hard fought game this week. If Dak craps the bed this team loses badly.

In the playoffs you always want to face the lesser quarterback.

SultanOfSix · Jan 9, 2022

No. The team gets screwed by the NFL/refs prior to that. I “guarantee” that the refs will be throwing the yellow next week unlike the clean game that happened for LA/SF. The NFL wanted the Niners in the playoffs and not the Saints and that defense on the last drive that the Rams played that allowed the 49ers and Garopollo of all QBs to drive the field in under 60s and hit wide open receivers was a rigged joke.

If you can’t win the first game as a 3 seed, you wouldn’t stand a chance in the next round.

we are playing against the worst qb in the tournament and we have a defense that forces turnovers

Jimmy G is going to give us a handful of chances at the ball. We have to hope the defense capitalizes.

Why are we looking to take the easy way out?
We are in the playoffs. If we're a Super Bowl team, we beat who we have to to get there.
The Cowboys aren't backing into the Super Bowl and rightly so.
They'll have to prove it by beating a legitimate contender - the way it should be.

3 seed improve our chances of getting a second home game if we can win the first.

At first look moving up to 3rd seed seemed good since we don’t have to go to Lambeau in Divisional round .

But have we also drawn a tougher matchup in WC round ?

I’m thinking we’d rather have played Cards again than a hot 49er team.

Thoughts??

That’s what I was thinking man, 9ers are hot right now.

JJHLH1 · Jan 9, 2022

I didn’t want to play the Cardinals after they beat us pretty easily two weeks ago.

If we faced them we would likely lose again.

We have a much better chance against Jimmy G.

How do you figure. You think Egirls can upset Tampa?

Doomsday · Jan 9, 2022

If they can't beat the Niners at home it is hard to believe they would go on the road and beat two of the Bucs, Rams, Cards, and Packers on the road in consecutive weeks.

Yea, I can’t imagine anyone but some homers who’d predict we’d go up and beat Tampa and Green Bay.

I'd rather see SF and TB. Let Arizona, LA, and GB battle it out. Unless things get weird we are only going to see 1 of those 3 teams, and if we see 2 then we don't see TB.

Starforever · Jan 10, 2022

Just take out Collins, and place Steele back on the right side, and they will be okay.

We will smash 49ers, they’re my least concern. I want Green Bay in Green Bay!

Yup, we have some unfinished business in Greenbay.

For real! if you told me “hey! You get to pick the qb youre playing against: stafford, garropolo, or kyler murray(who the announcers will talk about all game how he owns your stadium) who do you want?” I’m picking jimmy g everytime.

I live in norcal too, and even with the possibility of hearing annoying niner fans all year if we lose, im still taking it. We always play niners good. Rams and cards not so much.

Dale · Jan 10, 2022

The Niners do some things really well, namely run the ball and play stout along their defensive front.

But if we are tucking our tail between our legs over this matchup, we might as well pack it in for next season.
