SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS vs SEATTLE SEAHAWKS - 2019 Game 9

Since Sherman doesn't travel (to my knowledge) it'd be interesting to see if they have Lockett line up on his side. IMO that would be a mismatch.

McG is gonna be pissed off and ready to pancake some toots 😤

Spoon, Big Mike, Staley, and Juice are all back for this game? Don't get me wrong...I'm a huge Stone Cold Kittle fan but that should be enough to get us through the night with a win. Sanders Can be that #1 option just as George was/is and Dwelly isn't a slouch in the pass-game either. As long as we play sound football with no fumbles on O we should win this game even though it's not a given.

The 49ers run D has been weak but it hasn't mattered since the team has built leads.

Will Carroll choose to put the ball in Carson's hands, or Wilson's? Either way the D will be tested.

The offense better be ready to score.

lol... Oscar making it sound like our NFC-leading defense doesn't stand a chance vs Wilson, Carson, and a mediocre offensive line.

Our #2 ranked rushing offense gets both starting tackles and FB back today--Seattle's D is soft as hell. THEIR offense "better be ready to score."

MASSIVE upgrade for the run game.

Staley will be an upgrade for sure. If McGlinchey turns our to be a run upgrade over Brunskill, it will be awesome. Brunskill was very good in the run game. His ability to hit the correct opponent at the second level was terrific. I am tempted to say that if McGlinchey plays as well as Brunskill has, the run game will be trucking.

I know I have been a big supporter of Brunskill in the OL thread, but the kid has earned it. IMO, he will be the starter at RG next year.

McG is a much better run-blocker. He's an elite level OT in the run game...Brunskill was the 10th ranked pass-protector via PFF (take that for what it is). I also think Kyle limited the passing game a little with both backup tackles in there. We will find out tonight

I also agree Brunskill has earned a roster spot and very well could be the starting RG next yr. Great problem to have!

I'd actually put Mosley on Lockett and Witherspoon on Gordon.

I mean it's where they lineup. Lockett is mainly their slot DB. K'waun at this point is one of the best slot DBs in the league (PFF has him 6th overall for CBs). Sherman will man the left side of the field like he always does

I don't even know how much we see of Gordon tonight.

So no official word on Kittle yet?

Really going down to the wire.

He's not playing bruh. They should announce if Celek is active any min,

I honestly think Brunskill has been better in pass blocking than in run blocking this year. In fact, he's been a better pass blocker than McGlinchey (who had a rough game against the Steelers), but McG has been better in the run game.

you are correct sir.

Lockett runs a lot of his routes from the slot.

I know it sucks to say it BUT one of the reasons this run D wasn't elite was because of Kwon. He was awful vs the run. They gotta swarm to the ball, you can't arm tackle Carson.

End of the day our defense is better than theirs and our offense is right on par with theirs.

We're better in the trenches which wins games.

Just need to do better against the run. Carson has been tearing it up and our run D hasn't been good. Shore up the Run D and force Wilson into pressure and through the air.

our run D has been better than avg according to the rankings (14th overall). I actually think Greenlaw is a upgrade to Kwon in the run game (greenlaw has zero missed tackles this yr).

One big matchup is gonna be K Williams vs lockett.

Agree with the difference of having Greenlaw in the game.

Haven't heard if there was a reason why vs Cards they didn't use the pre-snap motion game with Sanders/Samuel that drove Carolina crazy, they were so confused...hope to see it used tonight, at least enough to see how Seattle handles it.

I never missed a game from 1970 thru 2003 at the Stick. We screamed our lungs out but no matter how loud we yelled the Stick never became known as a loud stadium. It was too open and the seats were too far from the field. Now that we have a good team it's time to really crank up the noise at Levis. That North side with all that glass should really reflect the sound from the South side and the seats are way closer than they were at the Stick. Tonight's the night to crank it up and let those 12th man humps know that our stadium can be loud too. Turn off the smart phones, stop the selfies and watch the game. Get into it. Get angry. Have fun.
