  1. If anyone seriously wants Allen thrown in jail, that's a bit much, but it wasn't a "weird thing", it was a dirty play by someone with a history of dirty play. I don't know how anyone can watch that play and say it wasn't 100% malicious.
  2. Grayson hasn't changed a bit from his Duke days. You seriously have to plug your nose to root for this guy as a Buck.
  3. Just getting absolutely destroyed on the glass.
  4. Warner and Bosa both good to go.
  5. The 49ers have such a QB, though. And yes, Fields and Huntley went off on us. The only mobile QB we contained well was Kyler Murray.
  6. Obviously you are correct. The 49ers plan is already likely run heavy. It would be very run heavy should Lance be in there. That said, the Packers defense is in a much better place personnel wise than it was a couple years ago, when Blake Martinez constantly tried in vain to beat Raheem Mostert to the edge. Campbell is so much more athletic than Martinez ever was, and Joe Barry's scheme depends on safeties and CBs providing much more in run support than Pettine's ever did. I would actually worry about the Packers selling out on the run, which would leave them vulnerable to Kittle or Samuel on pop passes off of play action. Packers 2019 rushing defense: 411 attempts 1921 yards 4.7 YPC Packers 2021 rushing defense: 398 attempts 1855 yards 4.7 YPC I certainly agree with Campbell being an upgrade, but other than that it looks like the exact same rushing defense to me. I'm not arguing for argument sake, I really would like to be convinced that we clearly don't have the same problem that we did then where we can be run on at will. I think as long as the offense does its thing, we should be fine. It's one of those slow starts where we get down 10-0 that would definitely have me concerned and play into the 49ers gameplan.
  7. The wideouts are fine and Kittle is a mismatch for anyone. The problem for the 49ers is that Garopo can't throw to the sides of the field or down the field at all. He is a game manager which works well. Don't turn the ball over and you win more often than not. Might be worse for the Packers if Lance has to start. If Trey Lance has to play a significant role in this game, I'd pick the Packers to win by 30. He's basically in the same boat as Jordan Love right now – there is certainly some intriguing raw material there to work with, but he's far from ready. If Lance were to start, they're going to gameplan for a Lance start, they're not going to have Lance try to sling it 40 times and get into a track meet with Aaron Rodgers. Lance's arm isn't NFL starter ready, but his legs offer immense upside. The last time the 49ers played the Packers in the playoffs, they essentially gave up on passing entirely -- and it worked. They have the runners to try to do it again, and if Lance starts, I'd expect a heavy dose of Lance and Deebo out in space and at least 25 carries out of Eli Mitchell.
  8. This happened, and happens with just about every one of these kinds of plays. Which Mike McCarthy does not apparently account for when he says "we practice this play all the time", which is kind of inexplicable for a coach who had been around as long as he does. Practice cannot simulate all the intangibles of a situation and it kind of blows my mind that MM could possibly ignore the real in-game variables and separate them from a practice environment. I'm guessing in practice that his first team defense is running dutifully over to the line of scrimmage and isn't doing everything in their power to subtly stall.
  9. Fred Warner already said he'll be good to go for Saturday. While you never know with concussions, I'd guess we'll see Bosa too.
  10. The last time we won the Super Bowl we were a 6th seed that barely made the playoffs. I don't agree that they're not very good. As others pointed out, most of their season success has been on the back end of the season. During that stretch they've beaten the Rams twice, they've won in Dallas, and they've won in Cincy. The only game they've lost since December 5th is a very narrow loss in Tennessee. I agree it's not 50/50, and we should win, but saying it would take a full scale implosion to lose to the 49ers is simply not giving them enough credit. They're good.
  11. There are just so many things that can go wrong with what McCarthy did. Your QB can botch the execution like what actually happened. You can have a defender cause just a slight delay and have it not be penalized. You can have a guy not get set right or commit some other penalty with a running clock and then there's a 10 second runoff and the game is over. Just take your shots, obviously things can go very wrong with a couple Hail Mary's but at least you're getting shots. You don't put yourself in a position to not even get an opportunity. And the fact that he still stood by his buffoonary shows how stubbornly stuck in his ways he remains.
  12. Well Mike didn't say a 50 yard throw, he said the 50 yard line so from the get-go his explanation looks like he's grasping at straws. The opponent's 41 is perfectly reasonable Hail Mary range. I remember Rodgers completing a Hail Mary to Janis against Arizona from their 45 with pressure in his face almost immediately. I don't know how much of a difference a little extra yardage makes at this point. I'd rather have 2 to 3 shots from the 41 than 0-1 shots from the 25 or 30. It's not like the defense can't get far enough back to guard the goal line either way.
  13. "Do you want to be running a Hail Mary play from the 50-yard line or do you want to run five verticals form the 25-yard line?" McCarthy said. "So, that's the decision, it's the right decision." You know you were at the 41 yard line, right, Mike? Your point sucks if you have to start it with a huge exaggeration.
  14. Take out the 7 seeds Pittsburgh and Philly and this was a very good playoff field. I guess the only effective difference has been forcing the 2 seeds to play a mediocre team to get to the divisional round instead of just getting a bye, but these 7 seeds haven't been playoff worthy.
  15. 6 teams per conference was perfect. Mo games mo money.
  16. I still can't believe this was the SNF game. Pittsburgh is so bad.
  17. McCloud sucks. The last two kickoff returns he's made mental mistakes.
  18. Even going back to when this move was made in this thread people weren't happy with it.
  19. I would assume there's a very good chance we'll see one if not both of them.
  20. Wait, JuJu Smith Schuster is not out for the season apparently?
  21. I think you're underestimating the level of drivel that typically spews from Skip Bayless' Twitter page.
  22. I don't think anyone is dreading it. It's fine. It's probably the best option remaining in the NFC. They all have reasons not to want to play them. SF is good, we should win but it's not a slam dunk of course, no one gets to play the Jaguars in January. But yeah, it'll be Saturday and then Bucs/Rams or Cards Sunday. Probably Bucs/Rams which I think is a very good matchup.
  23. When they got it down to 14 seconds they should have taken 2 or 3 shots at the endzone and that's it. That was ugly.
  24. Bwahahaha what in the world was that ??
  25. I don't know about afraid, but they can run the ball and they can pressure with their front 4. Probably the two things that a team needs to do to beat us.
