    We keep rehashing this, but it's a good percentage call to go for that. MLF was not going for the "kill shot" early, he did it because it's the higher percentage play and hopefully he'll do the same next time. As another said if they take the points they probably lose about 25 yards in field position and the following drive by the 49ers is likely a FG instead of a punt making the whole thing a wash anyway and worth trying for 7.

    Well worth the 13 minutes if you ever get free time to watch it I still don't see how Giannis did not tear his ACL.

    Doesn't it still seem bizarre that from 1998 through 2012 every division had 5 teams, except the NL Central had 6 and the AL West had 4 and that's just the way it was?

    I don't have any interest in seeing the Giants and Dodgers come down to the wire. If there's a Game 163, the Dodgers are going to win. Just let the Giants run away with it and guarantee that one of the Dodgers or Cardinals is going home immediately. Preferably the Dodgers, but the Cardinals would be a nice consolation prize.

    Totally disagree. I don't know if they'll do it, but there's far greater than a zero chance. It's the playoffs. They'll do whatever they can to win every game. If they think they can cut a guy off at 60 pitches and get him back a day sooner if things line up that way I'm sure they'll keep their options open. Ashby and Lauer and Houser I can absolutely see eating up a few innings on short rest. I think they'll try to keep Burnes on his regular rotation but if it's a game 7 and he can go and it's tied in extras then all bets are off.

    Early impression of the 2021 Packers through 3 games is that they are basically the same as always. Elite offense that can carry them at times. Defense that can do some things well but can't be trusted with the game on the line. Special teams with a good kicker and lousy coverage and return units.

    Going for it on 4th and 1 inside the 5 in a vacuum is a good percentage move. That's it. The historical percentages bear out that in that situation (again, in a vacuum, every game situation varies), you increase your odds of winning by going for it rather than kicking it. As with any move in any professional sport, things can go wrong where the alternative now looks like a better outcome.

    I don't think people fully appreciate the degree of difficulty on that key 1st down pass to Davante that got it up to midfield. The hole in that zone was almost nonexistent. You're dropping a ball through a tire from 35 yards away.

    If I were the 49ers I think I would have stopped short of the goal line and tried to not leave 40 seconds left for Aaron. But easier said than done.
  10. adambr2
    Dear God thank you Mason and Aaron and Davante for bailing out many bad things
  11. adambr2
    Lol. Same old Packers D. Absolutely clowned. And going to pay for their terrible clock management
  12. adambr2
    That's what I was wondering. No replay. It went out of bounds. Why would it matter? Because they would have lost like 12 yards on the play.
  13. adambr2
    That's what I was wondering. No replay. And no recourse to challenge when you have burned all 3 timeouts.
  14. adambr2
    This has 28-27 final written all over it.
  15. adambr2
    Yeah, I don't love giving it back to them up 6.
  16. adambr2
    My God, can we ever save a timeout for inside the 2 minute?
  17. adambr2
    Officials have completely taken this game over. It's disgusting.
  18. adambr2
    Do our presnap timeouts ever actually result in a positive play? Are we aware that we are allowed to go into the last 5 minutes of a game with more than 1 timeout to spare? It's like a Packer tradition.
  19. adambr2
    Defense is still not good.
  20. adambr2
    Lance made that look easy.

    The NFL has really shifted to aggressive on downs like that in the last few years. I think it is mostly because fans like it so there isn’t much blowback for the coach. I would like to see our coach play the percentages though. It's not because fans like it. It's because of the analytics boom providing evidence that punting from the 44 yard line doesn't really help you and giving the opponent the ball inside their own 5 is a good enough consolation prize that it's worth trying to pickup an extra 4 points. Yep. This. Even if you fail you're 20 yards ahead in field position of where you'd be if you take the 3. It's well worth going for the extra 4 points as the field position in the worst case scenario partially offsets the fail possibility. Of course it's all situational. In a 16-10 game with 5 minutes left in the 4th, of course you're taking the 3.
  22. adambr2
    Nah, that's a good situation to go for it. Worst case scenario they're still buried deep. Didn't love the play call, though.
  23. adambr2
    They needed to be able to do better getting back within reasonable 3 point range when it was 2nd and 29. Good job by Mason making it not matter.
  24. adambr2
    Nijman is going to be a total liability today.
  25. adambr2
    We are 100% locked into our playoff positioning. Can't get up to the 1 seed (wouldn't want to anyway), and can't drop to the 3 seed. Just line em up the way you want them, and get some rest. Should be Sunday lineups the rest of the way and wins are irrelevant. Braves or Phillies await.
