As mentioned, the early line is to get the suckers

They don't come out equal, lol, They collect the vig.

Confidently wrong as usual.

Google search will give you rankings. You're obviously looking for reliable books with good payout reputation and hopefully not too many hoops to collect the initial payout (usually much simpler after the 1st cash out).

Might look into trading contracts on a platform like Kalshi. Not traditional sports betting, but reliable.

Wrong about what exactly

Um... WHY do you think he left???? You don't sign a TE "dropping passes all over the place" to 4 year contract to be your starter. Yes he had his drops, like Vernon used to... but he was damn dangerous, and we've NEVER have had two playmaking TEs at one time like that since... Vance McDonald had size and speed, but not the agility or consistency than Walker had with us... Tonges has the clutchness... probably better hands than both Walker and Vernon, but he doesn't have the lethal speed as they did.

Yall fans are weird ass hell when it comes to our past contributers...our past playmakers who helped the team...... well unless it's Alex Smith and Jimmy G, then yall get wet all over again when it comes to them.

When Vernon or Randy Moss (yes Randy) cleared out the middle, Delanie was killing teams over the middle.. as well as a great blocking TE.

330 yards and 3 tds is hardly lethal. Harbaugh regime didn't know how to actually take advantage of weapons to their fullest potential. Still don't.

Delanie left because he wanted to be featured in a real passing offense.

He got around 250 of those yards AFTER Kap took over, and got those yards in only 7 games... also added another 85 yards in the playoffs. All this as the 4th or 5th option..... on an offense that would start to run out the clock in the 3rd QTR if we were up 10pts.

So chances are he would had much more the next season with us, if he stuck around. Especially with our slow our WRs were in 2013.

I tend to agree. Jim Harbaugh and Kyle Shanahan are very similar in their offensive approaches. I think Shanahan would have loved Vernon Davis and would have found a way to keep Delanie - if it wasn't for *idiot* GM Trent Baalke.

A healthy Kittle and a healthy Tonges, are more similar than different (in comparison to Vernon and Delanie) in a sense that both sets of TE's fit their offenses very well. The difference is that the Harbaugh GM was so clueless about personnel. At least (to a certain extent) John defers to Kyle on the offensive side in our current front office regime.

Improve the FS position... keep F'ing around, keep finding out
Really doesn't seem to matter. MacDonald has him brock and cmc figured out. They have the talent to lock the offense down completely without any actual quickness to match up with the Seahawks young core... Ie nobody is open ever for brock to throw to.

Jacob Cowing has looked good in OTAs and we brought in some fast rookies, so we might have the answers we need to deal with whatever the Seahawks defense throws at us.

You'd think it had been 200 games since we beat the Seahawks with the way folks here talk instead of (checks notes...)... 3.

Cowling has looked good in OTAs for two straight seasons. Same BS.

Did he have him figured out in their first 3 games? 2 of which we won and the 3rd lost after Nick Bosa got injured and our defense couldn't get any stops while we were playing with a banged up offense?

MacDonald is a terrific coach and he has a great defense in Seattle which will be a grind to go up against but let's stop crowning these teams until we see how everyone looks this season. We have a lot of changes on our team. I'm confident Kyle isn't sitting back just to roll out the same game plan against them this season.

Well he got injured last year. Maybe he won't this time.
Cowing is tiny...

At least with our other speedsters, there is still the threat of the run.

I think SF, SEA, and LAR are all pretty much a toss up in this division.

But on this point specifically, wouldn't a trend showing the outcomes of games having shifted from splitting, or even losing the first few games, to then consistently winning support an argument of "figuring it out?" Not sure using the first 3 games actually counters the figuring them out argument.
