Who's in? Who is staying up? Who do you think will win? Will the Ravens do it for Ray Lewis? Will Kaepernick lead the 49ers to glory?
If you don't like NFL please don't reply just to tell us you don't like it. You can hide the thread so please leave us in peace. Cheers. |  |

Yes, I shall watch at least some of it. Don't know who I think will win this time (or which team I shall favour). |  |

yeah I'll prob be up for some or most of it. I gather there are some really interesting backstories this year - 2 brothers playing on opposing sides for starters! |  |

There are. Ray Lewis is playing his last game for the Ravens as well. He has been an NFL legend and i've just got a feeling they will win it for him. | |

It's the coaches who are brothers.
Kaepernick is undoubtedly the better QB of the two but I can see Ray Lewis and Ed Reed bossing the defence enough to grind out a Ravens win.
Also, I really dislike Jim Harbaugh.
So, for these reasons: Ravens. | | | |

I've got it set for record. I'll wait until Lewis does his dance then probably call it a night, I don't particularly like the coverage, after every play, they'd go back to the studio and assess it, I'd rather they didn't do that to be honest.
I really hope the Ravens win it for Ray Lewis. I've been watching his motivational/inspirational videos on YouTube all week, he's such a legend. |  |

I'm staying up, heading out to watch it with a few mates.
Personally, I can't see the 49er's losing. That's not to say I don't think Baltimore can't win, it's more the fact that the 49ers have been so dominant all year long that I just can't see them losing. I also shouldn't really want a 49ers win what with being a Cardinals fan, but you know, it'd keep it in the division and what not (which is funny as the NFC west was penned as one of the weakest divisions prior to the season.)
I did tweet jokingly about Akers making a 60+ yard FG, but in all honestly, that wouldn't surprise me, he has to come good at some point. Final score for me: SF: 30 Ravens: 27 after OT. |  | | |

Wouldn't be confident with any tip on this game but if I had to i'd go Ravens +3.5
That would cover a field goal loss and after they beat the Patriots the Ravens can beat anyone. | |

I'm glad they analyse each play, otherwise I'd have no clue what's going on! But it must be annoying if you understand the game.
I won't be staying up this year though. |  | | |

I'd disagree that Kaepernick is undoubtedly the better QB. He's got more to his game, but Flacco is the better pure passer and there's always the chance that pressure will tell with it only being Kaepernick's 10th NFL start
As for the game it really is too close to call. If pushed I'm backing the Ravens, just feels a bit written in the stars with it being Ray Lewis' last game and all |  |

I'll have a look at that, I think it could well be fairly close myself. | | | |

You've got one of the best defences in the history of the NFL against jammy, spawny comeback kings.
Ravens by 10+
Seriously, I think the 49ers have used all their jam up, and don't see the Ravens allowing them back in if they go ahead. Brady was clammed up tight last week in the second half. At home.
Ravens by 10+
Kapaernick is a kid. Ray Lewis isn't.
Ravens by 10+
I'll eat humble pie if need be. I'll be keeping it here on the second screen, with my main men Kevin, Cecil and Neil "Guys, guys, please like me, I know loads about Football, as we call it in my house, honest, please like me" Reynolds | | | |

I'm gonna give it a go, I've never watched a full NFL game before, just bits and pieces.
I think I've got a very basic grasp of the rules.
Is it fairly easy to follow?
Also who's the favourites? |  | | |

Best bit of advice I can give you is if Jake Humphrey is fronting it or even pops up slam on the mute button and don't look into his eyes directly. |  |

The commentators are pretty good at explaining what happened.
The 49ers are the favourites.
Watch on Sky Sports if you have it rather than BBC | |

Thanks, be watching on Sky.
How popular is it over here now?
I remember at school in the mid eighties it was very popular, most kids were either Dolphins, Bears or Redskins fans. Don't seem to hear so much about it these days. | | | |

What are they talking about at your school these days? ;)
It's regaining some of that popularity. I'd say we're the biggest market outside of North America. They've given us two Wembley games next year so they must be confident they can tap this market. | |
