I got to go to the Jaguars vs. 49ers game last Sunday. First time going to a professional football game, and 'twas very fun! (Plus, I got to go for free since it was part of a volunteer event where I would help out during the halftime show.) I think what I enjoyed the most about being in the stadium (as opposed to watching from the couch) is feeling the energy of all the fans around you as they cheer their team on.
Anyways, from what I gathered, the Jaguars had a 3-game winning streak going into the game, while the 49ers had a 5w-6l record.
From what I saw, the Jaguars managed to prove that making fourth-down conversions without sufficiently protecting the quarterback is a bad idea.
Anyways, also from what I gathered, the Jaguars' loss officially gives the Colts a spot in the finals, if I'm not mistaken. I hope they do well. After beating the Bears that one Super Bowl (*grumblegrumble*), they have to prove they are capable of winning it all again.
On a side note, I think that being able to kick a football on a field goal attempt so that it hits the goalpost itself is a pretty cool feat. Alas, it scores no points. Also, stadium food is horribly overpriced. Free tailgate food, though, is awesome.
