Cards put up 27 points on Carolina, a team ranked a bit higher than the Saints, in the first three quarters. Carolina made the score look closer than the game was. This game will be a good test. They run a pretty good defensive scheme.

I'm going to have to cut off all forms of information on the 49ers until Sunday right up to game time. Every dam week I get so pissed off at all this injury news. IMO it just saying "well that's football" is not the answer Kyle is doing something different in practice than most of the NFL and it's costing him.

Yeah Kyle likes having his team hurt.

So frustrating dealing with all these injuries. Even worse we keep getting hit in the same area which makes it that much harder to handle.

Just hope we find a way to win tomorrow. I expect another close and ugly game. We simply have to make less mistakes than Arizona but if Colby and Jennings can't play it's going to be real tough. Can't do much vs their injuries at corner if we can't get the ball out.

Thankfully the Cardinals are one of the very few teams who are dealing with just as many injuries. Their secondary is depleted. And their Linebackers are horrible. CMC should feast in this game as a receiver. Pearsall should also have alot of success vs that secondary if the Oline can hold up. I do hope JJ can play because the corners for the Cards are very soft.

Vegas considers Brock only 1/2 of a point better than Mac Jones. Spread was 3 with Brock playing and now 2.5 points with Mac starting. Other than the fact that Brock can scramble a bit better, there really is not a big difference between the 2. Both are systems quarterbacks who can deliver the passes to the elite players around them.

Before Brock practiced the cardinals were 1.5 points favorite. People must have betted on us past few days which put us at 3 points favorite and now with brock out for sure it maybe moved to 2.5

Now that Brock is out, the line could have still moved to the Cards being 1.5 favorites. But it is at 49ers minus 2.5, only 1/2 point lower than when people thought Brock would be starting.

Also, prior to the season starting, Vegas had us favored 3.5 points for this game. So with Mac now starting, we are still favored 2.5 points, which does not really show a difference between Mac and Brock.

you are overestimating the cardinals they have just as many injuties and lines move based on betting and money in i doubt pepole will be pouring money into the cardinals

lines open then they move based on betting they dont exactly get readjusted like that

Well then it's not Vegas but the general public who views Brock as only 1/2-1 point better than Mac.

i just edited my post but the cardinals themselves have a ton of injuries and no one is betting on the cardinals based on this news even before brock practiced the bets were coming in on us as we opened as the underdog

that was my point. As Brock practiced we moved to even bigger favorites no one will bet on cardinals on the road after they barely beat the panthers
