I think there is a good chance deebo plays but at least if he doesn't, we have time to game plan around it.

but he is a huge loss. I heard someone say that losing deebo is almost like losing multiple players because he's position-less, I thought that was interesting. Losing deebo hurts both our run game and pass game, as well as blocking.

Our offense just struggles when he's not there. We struggle last week against GB.

If Kyle loses to Jared Goff and Dan Campbell to lose your 3rd straight nfc championship, this one at home, it's over. This dude isn't winning s**t in SF

Deebo will play and Aiyuk will cut up Gardner. What makes you think he can't break the ankles of a middling cornerback?

Gardner is a dirty player, he's going to go for our guys knees, we need to take the attack to him early and just keep beating him down!!

Perhaps we wait and see what happens before we preemptively judge that our coach is some kind of championship preventing anchor.

Kyle finally had a qb that fits what he really wants to do. So I almost view it as the previous years are impressive that we even made it that far. Lol this is the first year where I feel like we have the right qb. If we go to 3 or 4 more NFCC with Brock, I like our chances of winning them as he gets better.

I'm nervous in the fact that it's the playoffs and for all the marbles but I like our chances against the lions.

we are the better team. People forget how awesome of a team we are cause we haven't dominated for a few weeks now, it's time to remind em.

i think we might up the lions and send eminem, I mean Goff, back to Detroit.

I was just thinking that at this time last week I was a nervous wreck. GB dismantled Dallas and I was legitimately worried they'd beat us. It almost happened, but didn't. This week I'm much more calm about the Lions. You can call it false confidence, but I think last week was our real test in the NFC. I foresee much better offense and defense respectively and we win by 13+. The scare is over. Time to whoop some hiney now

Plus the national narrative is way overhyping the lions as americas darling right now.

Its cringe and it going to come crashing down.

I am just worried about our defense. And that Hutch dude some. That is pretty much it. GB sure was a test..not sure it gets testier than that haha. I thought for sure we lost in the 3rd qtr..so many things going wrong. Kinda felt like Cleveland 2.0 lol. But it ended up with ice in the veins, polar Purdy going full Joe.

The team needed a post season kick in the ass. Maybe they would've fared better in 2019 had Minnesota or GB given them a bigger challenge. Remember KC went through a grind in the AFC that year in the postseason and that's why they were never out of it in the SB.

Hopefully this game lit a fire under Shanny's ass that more of the same is not the answer. In order to win in the playoffs, you have to take risks, use your weapons advantageously, and take nothing for granted (like at the end of halves).

I want this team to play the next two games with a sense of urgency. Put your foot on the opponent's throat and don't let off until the clock turns zero.

….Wilks, OTOH, will continue his same BS vanilla schemes

good things it's 2024, mofos.
