The Super Bowl is just one win away for the San Francisco 49ers and Detroit Lions. The two teams will square off in the 2024 NFC Championship Game on Sunday, Jan. 28 at 6:30 p.m. Et on Fox. Dan Campbell’s Lions are looking to make the first Super Bowl in franchise history while Kyle Shanahan’s 49ers are hoping to make it back to the Big Game for the first time since 2019. The Niners, however, have not won a Super Bowl in 30 years. Detroit has provided the NFL with an epic feel-good story as the perennially bottom-dwelling team has become one of the best squads in the league this year. The Niners are hoping that wide receiver Deebo Samuel will be available to play, as they are 0-4 when he is not 100% this season. Don’t miss any of the action with a 5-Day Free Trial of Directv Stream.

Meek Mill at Pre-Super Bowl Concert: “One Time For the Eagles — I Think We’re Taking the Super Bowl”
At a pre-Super Bowl concert on Friday, Meek Mill — a proud Philadelphia native — wanted to spot who in the audience was rooting for the opposing team ahead of the big game.
“Any Chief fans in the building tonight?” he asked the crowd in Phoenix, Arizona, getting some roars but not many.
“We need to spot out the opps tonight — so we know who we need to finish before this weekend is over,” he continued. “Shout out to all the Chief fans in the building but we’re going to take this thing the whole way.”
The Grammy-nominated rapper went on to ignite the stage with his hits “Ima Boss,” “Going Bad” and “Dreams and Nightmares.” His Friday afternoon appearance was part of the Legends Party, hosted by the athlete-owned apparel brand Legends.
Migos rapper Quavo — a co-owner of the apparel company — will host another Legends Party on Saturday with DJ Durel.

Culpo, wearing a gorgeous white bikini with crochet knit overlay, is getting playfully “attacked” in the photo by boyfriend Christian McCaffrey. The NFL star is posing behind her in the water as if he’s taking a bite out of the back of Culpo’s leg.

To quote John Connor in Terminator 2: Judgment Day, “So this other guy, he’s a Terminator like you, right?” Well, not quite. But fans of the film franchise are up in arms about the look of a Baker Mayfield statue that was unveiled Saturday at Oklahoma University’s spring football game. They immediately noticed that the statue of Mayfield, the 2017 Heisman Trophy winner, bears an uncanny resemblance to actor Robert Patrick, the shape-shifting T-1000 that was the villain of Terminator 2.
Patrick took it all in stride, chiming in on social media when the statue’s image cropped up. As it turns out, he’s a big Cleveland Browns fan, the NFL home of Mayfield before he recently had a falling out with the franchise.
For the record, here’s the real-life Mayfield:
Compare that to the photos below and you’ll have to agree with the T-2 fans.

Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt granted clemency on Thursday to Julius Jones, just hours before he was to be executed for a murder conviction.
Jones’ case had drawn the attention of Kim Kardashian and other celebrities. Kardashian, an advocate for criminal justice reform, tweeted about Stitt’s decision, “Thank you so much Governor Stitt for commuting Julius Jones sentence to life without parole and stopping his execution today.” She said that she spoke to Jones on the phone on Wednesday.
“He also wanted me to pass a few messages along that were really important to him,” she wrote. “The most important is that you have to always make sure you are doing the right thing. Julius was hanging out with the wrong crowd and that landed him in the position he’s in today.”
I’m so grateful to everyone who used their voice and helped to save Julius’s life today.

The NFL, which has already taken steps to strongly encourage its players to get vaccinated against Covid-19, is ramping up the pressure at the team level.
The league has sent a memo to its 32 clubs that if games are forced to be postponed due to a positive Covid test, they will go down as forfeits if they can’t be rescheduled. That will not only hit teams’ win-loss record, but also wipe out a paycheck and deny the home team’s ability to derive revenue from hosting the game.
NFL Network reporter Tom Pelissero obtained the memo and tweeted it in full. He said the league was going to convene a call with team owners this evening.
“These operating principles are designed to allow us to play a full season in a safe and responsible way,” Commissioner Roger Goodell wrote, “and address possible competitive or financial issues fairly. While there...

Game of Thrones author George R.R. Martin loves three things above all else: writing exhaustive descriptions of feasts, killing Starks, and watching NFL football.
When the “A Song of Ice and Fire” creator is not writing the most impactful bit of fantasy storytelling since The Lord of the Rings, he follows his two favorite football teams: the New York Giants and the New York Jets.
Martin is fond of expounding upon his fandom in interviews (including this one with ex-NFL defensive end Chris Long) and also documenting his sports pain on his LiveJournal blog, “Not a Blog”. The Westeros story shepherd has been blogging steadily since pretty much the dawn of blogging in 2006. And over the past 15 years, he has marked 235 posts with the “NFL” tag.

For the first time in three years, Tom Brady isn’t the top-selling player in the National Football League.
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback and Super Bowl Most Valuable Player Patrick Mahomes bumped the 42-year-old Brady from the top spot this past season, cementing his status as the face of football, Sportico has learned.
Brady, a six-time Super Bowl champion with the New England Patriots who joined the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as a free agent, is second on the NFL Players’ Association’s official list of top-selling players from March of last year through February. He has made a record 18 straight appearances in the top three since the Nflpa introduced the list in 2014.
The list includes sales of all officially licensed player-identified merchandise, including jerseys, trading cards, wall decals, T-shirt and bobbleheads. Nflpa licensees generated their sixth consecutive year of record sales, topping $1.9 billion.

The opening weekend for the 2019 NFL season mostly continued its ratings momentum from last year, with every network besides CBS seeing an improvement for its opening weekend of game coverage, according to Nielsen.
Overall, Week 1 averaged 17 million viewers, a 5% increase from the opening weekend in 2018.
ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” doubleheader saw gains for both the early and late windows, especially with the New Orleans Saints’ thrilling last-second comeback victory over the Houston Texans. That game, which the Saints won 30-28 on a field goal as time expired, drew 13.1 million, up 27% from last year’s early game. The late game between the Oakland Raiders and Denver Broncos, which the Raiders won 24-16, was up 10% from last year’s late-game (which also featured the Raiders) with 10.6 million viewers.

The National Football League’s regular season kicks off Thursday night with a mouth-watering encounter between the Green Bay Packers, led by Aaron Rodgers who has a point to prove, and the Chicago Bears, boasting a formidable defense.
However, while fans won’t have to wait long to find out whether offense or defense will come out on top in Chicago, one thing that seems likely is that offense will dominate the league once again in 2019, after an astronomical number of touchdowns and offensive yards helped the NFL to a ratings rebound in 2018.
2017 saw an alarming dip of 10% in totalviewers for the NFL — but the league bounced back across the board last year with NBC up 6% to just over 19 million viewers with “Sunday Night Football,” ESPN’s “Monday Night Football” up 8% to 11.6 million viewers, and Fox and CBS’s Sunday afternoon games up 2%.

Update: Condoleeza Rice will not be the next coach of the Cleveland Browns football team. The former Secretary of State responded to the ESPN story that positioned her for an interview with the struggling NFL team with a Facebook post by noting, “I’m not ready to coach.”
“On a more serious note, I do hope that the NFL will start to bring women into the coaching profession as position coaches and eventually coordinators and head coaches,” she wrote. “One doesn’t have to play the game to understand it and motivate players. But experience counts — and it is time to develop a pool of experienced women coaches.
“Btw — I’m not ready to coach but I would like to call a play or two next season if the Browns need ideas! And at no time will I call for a ‘prevent defense.’”
