Who gets to wear home jerseys?

Is it the team with better record?

First answer I found says NFC wears home jerseys on odd number Super Bowls, AFC on even. It's SB 47 so we should be wearing home jerseys.

I like reading that. A couple weeks of hearing we are underdogs is better than a couple weeks of people thinking we have it locked up.

Yeah!! We Made It?!! The AFC was the favorite the last 3 weeks! I was confident that we would come back, but we do need to start better in the Big Game!! Just enough pressure to cause errant throws by Ryan! Flacco is even less mobile but he needs to be moved off his spots! We have all waited a while for this!! Go 49ers!! Lets tie the Steelers with #6!!!!!!

Awesome. I remember we wore red against the Bengals in '89, white against the Broncos in '90, and red against the Chargers in '95, so that makes sense we'll be wearing red in 2 weeks.

You do realize that SF-5 means that the Niners are the favorites, right?

oh lol I'm not a betting man -5 logically seemed like 5 point underdogs.

49ERS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!

-5 means that the if you bet the spread on Baltimore, you're spotting them 5 points. In other words, you have to take 5 points away from whatever the 49ers score.

The 49ers I believe were -4 at Atlanta and won by 4, 28-4=24. It would've been a push.

Clyde, do you want to sticky this?

Maggie Gray:

Michael Phelps told me through tears that Ray Lewis is the most inspirational person in his life 'he taught me to think outside the box'

Yeah, that Michael Phelps. (He's a Ravens fan).

@ESPNNFL: This will be 1st Super Bowl in 10 years without a Manning, Roethlisberger or Brady at QB (via @CJSports2)

 

[BINGO]

This extra week of rest will be a blessing for several of our players, especially Justin Smith.
