This is not a "hill to die on" but here are the PFF grades for the three tackles for PP and run blocking and snaps:

Brunskill - PP = 81, run = 66, snaps = 284

Skule - PP = 52, run = 73, snaps = 452

McGlinchey - PP 70, run = 56, snaps = 283.

McGlinchey had a good year, a year of promise last year, but did not have a very good start this season. Hopefully part of it was due to an injury that was slowing him down and he will be ready to ball tonight.

McGlinchey is far superior from an athletic and size perspective. The sample size here is small for Brunskill and McGlinchey.

McGlinchey will be a CLEAR upgrade.

I do not accept the idea that Mc is more athletic than Brunskill. DB has shown outstanding footwork and agility this season.

As I said above, if McGlinchey can continue to play at the same level as Brunskill, I will be delighted. At no time last season did McGlinchey rank in the top 10 OTs. Brunskill has been hovering around #10 the entire time he has been playing.

Good problem to have.

I'm out...

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.

I think Candlestick was much louder than Levi's. I went to a game at Levi's and it's wide open. Candlestick had that little bowl at the top that helped out, and the fans would pound their feet and rock the temporary metal bleachers behind the opposing team. I think the old place rocked. Tonight Levi's will get their chance to be a factor in the game. Go Niners!

Sorry but it was never known for being loud. The stands were just too far from the field. I sat on the lower level under the upper deck so the sound was lud where we sat, but it didn't carry to the field. It just sort of stayed under the overhang. You never saw a lot of false starts or QB's having trouble hearing. Levis is much closer to the field. It may not have been loud when you've been there but I heard the fans are starting to get into it and the volume is going up. I know they built that stadium to hold the sound in because they wanted to hold concerts there. Stadiums can't be loud unless the fans are screaming. Sitting in one of the clubs watching on TV won't do it. I thought that was kind of a mistake to put all those clubs in the stadium because it makes it too easy for fans to go in there and keep refueling and just watch from there. The players can't hear you in there.

Well I went to all the games at Candlestick in the era you're talking about and I think it could be loud as hell in a big playoff game. Sure, not enough to cause a lot of false starts like a dome, or Seattle where they specifically built it to amplify the crowd noise. We had seats four rows up behind the opposing bench. People would routinely get into banter with players from the other team that they would respond to. It could be a very hostile environment for opponents and visiting teams would occasionally comment that they didn't love playing at Candlestick. There was a definite home field advantage to that charming pig sty.

Getting the Osprey Wings ready for the BBQ.

Don't want to watch the pregame. The hype on Russell Wilson just too much to stomach

Ughhhh one more hour of work here in central zone

We have to win this game, my wife is a Seahawks fan.........I dunno might have to trade her in for a new one......

Is Spoon playing tonight?

Yes

A healthy Spoon, Sherm, and Mosley should be enough to stop Lockett, DK, and Gordon. Now I'm excited!

Gonna have a quick ass workout then speed home to catch the start, Im crazy sleepy too with only 3 hrs of sleep but as the game gets closer ill be wide awake. Been waiting for this game for the longest already

Official

Celek time....lets goooo!

When do the inactives get posted?

Doesn't look like we'll have Kittle. Going to be tough to win without him.

That strong suggests George Kittle (knee, ankle) is OUT tonight vs. Seattle.

Nah

You don't think Kittle is an important player for this team?

Going to be tough, period. Especially for the Seahawks.
