Thursday games, man.

Exhausted team not mentally in it.

They've looked exhausted from the start. That Los Angeles game was intense, then have to play another game 4 days later, tough ask.

im just hoping to get out of here with a win.

This is why the 49ers are calling for the short passing game tonight

The Giants blitzed Purdy on 20 of 24 dropbacks in the first half (83%), which would be the fourth-highest blitz rate by any defense in a single game in the past 5 years.

A Martindale defense has 2 of the 3 games with a higher rate, including the 2019 Ravens-49ers game.
