Mccaffrey just blew out an achilles on a non contact play. Sigh
Or a new York fan.However bad you all feel, it could be worse, you could be Saints fans
In the 21st Century, most Super Bowl losers enter painful rebuilding periods sooner rather than later.* The Niners flew a little too close to the sun this offseason and the chip window has seemingly closed. It'll be a lot harder for them after Purdy gets his $260M bag, because they will start looking to shed some veteran salary soon thereafter.49ers look completely overmatched. Hard to read into this game too much due to injuries and snow but how will the 49ers be next year without so many injuries?
Having a hard time remembering another season for a top contender go so disastrously. IIRC the Kobe Bryant/Dwight Coward* team had terrible chemistry, but Kobe willed them to an end of season surge into the playoffs (before his Achilles blew out). No such luck for your Niners.49ers lose top RBs McCaffrey, Mason to injuries
49ers running backs Christian McCaffrey and Jordan Mason are both headed to injured reserve.www.espn.com
Well. Shit.
The problem is that all franchise QBs not named Kirk Cousins* got their bag from their original team. Purdy will be no different. I get why you're not convinced he deserves $260M, and that's because only a handful of guys are actually elite and play to their contract. Other times, you end up with guys like Kyler Murray, Trevor Lawrence, or even Justin Herbert that are good but not great. Worst case scenario, you're the Browns and get stuck with Deshaun Watson because karma is a biyatch.IMO I don't think we should pay Brock the $260m bag. I just don't think he's that good. I wanted to believe, and maybe even drank the Kool-aid, but a great qb wills his teams to wins, elevates players and makes them better under all conditions. Not saying he sucks or anything like that, he's above serviceable in this league and he's still young so he will get better I believe. But he needs playmakers, and we're about to dump a few next year I would think (Deebo, Mason, Williams, though I can't remember what his recently signed contract is atm).
EDIT: I'm not saying he's the problem either. Our D coughed up 2 division games with leads, and our ST put us in some really bad positions as well this season.
So you're saying there's a chance. Lions -3.5TNF, i think 5 of the Lions front 7 players are out
Damn, how did the Packers become yourLions win , have the tie breaker vs the Eagles now i believe
/won 6 of their last 7 games vs Packers
I watched the game. It was a fun game. The going for it on 4th down on their own 30 was dumb, I don't give a shit if you live by the sword, it's still dumb. It was dumb, it is dumb, and it will be dumb.Damn, how did the Packers become yourbitchesBears?
I still don't understand going for it with 40 seconds remaining in the game. I know it's Dan Gamble, but the risk/reward didn't make any sense.
It's worse than I thought. Most of the available data* shows that 4th-and-1 fails about one-third of the time. I thought the conversion rate was higher than that, and it might be in recent seasons due to the Tush push. Now Campbell trusts his team and O-line so their chances are better than average; still it's far from a lock and Goff nearly tripped on the snap.

Lions play the Bills next week. Might be a Super Bowl preview.I watched the game. It was a fun game. The going for it on 4th down on their own 30 was dumb, I don't give a shit if you live by the sword, it's still dumb. It was dumb, it is dumb, and it will be dumb.
Great team to watch, great team to pull for - and I am rooting for the Lions to go all the way. Let's go eminem's team.
Yeah that game had a ton of names on defense I'd never heard before. Talk about 'next man up'. Can you imagine how crazy this year would be if we still had people like Hutch on defense?They did not want to give Love a chance to tie it up with 40 seconds to go against a defence that has 17 people on ir, was not a fan of the 4th down on our own 30 though
