NFL Conference Championship Games today

[dawg80]

Go Lions! and Go Ravens!

I like the KC Chiefs, and L. Sneed has been absolutely fantastic this season, a lock-down corner if ever there was one. He has enjoyed an incredible year, allowing exactly one TD all season, and that coming last week vs. the Bills and it took a perfect pass from Josh Allen and a great catch to pull it off. He has allowed ONE TD in 19 games. Wow! Happy for Sneed. And, I like Mahomes. When I watched him torch us back in 2016 playing for Texas Tech I said he was special, not just a great QB who would be playing on Sundays, but someone who would excel in the NFL, and he certainly has. But...I can't root for KC. You can probably guess why...and yes, you will "swiftly" arrive at the reason why.

As for the Lions...are you kidding me!? What a story! Much like the hapless Cubs and their legion of loyal fans, I cannot help but hope Lions' fans are finally rewarded. Detroit is one of the oldest franchises in the NFL, dating back to the 1930's. They did enjoy success in the '50's, with QB Bobby Lane, but most of their fanbase was not born then and have known only failure. Detroit is one of five current franchises to never have even played in a Super Bowl, and one of 12 to never have won one. So, just reaching the Super Bowl would be an accomplishment. I like the Niners, but have to root for the Lions today. Make history!

The Ravens...

They are what they are.

Why can’t you root for KC?

You can't "swiftly" arrive at that answer?

Ok, I get it now. I ignore all of that.

I’m pulling for the 49ers and Brock Purdy anyway. He doesn’t fit the narrative that talking heads want their SB winning QB to be.

I like Purdy a lot.

I want Sneed to have as good as career as possible, on the other hand. He's probably our current active leading Tech alum, unless someone escapes me.

Has Sneed ever donated to Tech?

I bet no ones ever asked.

For the first half yesterday, Detroit looked like a Super Bowl team. Unfortunately, for the second half, they looked like the Lions.

And they remain the oldest franchise to have never played in a Super Bowl. Their home stadium was packed watching the game on a big screen. Oh well, "wait til next year."

As for the Ravens, two turnovers in the endzone spelled doom for them. Plus, the much-heralded Lamar Jackson looked very average yesterday. A deer caught in headlights.

Don't know if Sneed contributes but he is popular with my grandsons. When he was at Tech took the boys to a practice they enjoyed that a talking with players. Sneed gave each one a glove he wore during practice as it ended. Fans for life!

He did on Sunday for sure. He punched out the ball at the one as Flowers was about to score for the Ravens.
