Rams @ 49ers 1:25PM 11/9 Pre-game thread | Page 165

AJinUT · 2025-11-02T20:20:37-08:00

I feel the next game against the Rams is a must win for both teams. A Ram's wins put them up 2 games on the Niners. A Niner win puts them up over the Rams in the west. The Rams seem to be playing okay ball right now and I see the game as being close. How important do you feel it is for a Niners win and what do you think they need to do to come out the victors? I think the defense is going to give up points to Stafford, yet I think the Niners will be able to pass the ball as they have been doing. Niners have to stay close in this one and it may just come down to like the first game who wins the turnover game. Again, what do you think the Niners need to do to win this and is this a must win for the Niners?

This is not panic time for the #49ers. I still believe they make the playoffs and maybe even pull a first round upset.

I will take that this year!!! Come on.

Giving up 42 points, no turnovers and 1 punt... D-. Only reason it isn't an F is we are banged up.

Him having Mustafa line up 1 on 1 across from davante on 3rd is idiotic. Players play but you need to start by putting them in a position to succeed

This game turned out like I expected only a little higher scoring. It looks like the effect of having so many starting and first line backups injured on defense is starting to show up. Guys that would normally be backing up and playing a few minutes are being asked to play more. On top of that the guys backing up the backups that are now starting aren't as good. You can overcome it for a game or two but eventually it's going to catch up with you.

Probably B considering how tough the Rams offense is and our offense repeatedly hanging them out to dry with 3 and outs, failed 4th down conversions, and turnovers.

No a C. Terrible tackling terrible coverage. Drop back 7 and guys wide open on 2-3 second drop backs

Rams offense is really good. They're going to make most defenses look bad. They stopped the Rams enough times for us to win the game, but the offense was a no show for most of the first half and kept turning the ball over.

Until Monday when one pops up

"Actually…….Bethune's head fell off Monday morning. It was more serious than they thought in the blue tent. He's getting it stitched back on Wednesday and he'll probably miss 1-2 weeks…..about 5 times."

1. To beat AZ
2. Bears to lose at Vikings or Detroit loses at Philly

The bears are going to tumble. And the niners are going to whip their ass on primetime.

the 49ers have such an awfully terrible schedule. They play a lot of bad teams.

Mentioned it in an earlier post, but the Bears schedule is really tough:

@ Min
Pitt
@Phi
@GB
Cle
GB
@SF
Det

The 7th seed is right there for us. 10 wins should be good.

A lot of us knew the Niners were going to get their ass kicked today, so I'm not surprised by the result. Rams are a damn good team on a roll, and the 49ers' defense is incredibly depleted.

Exactly. This team has overachieved and done great. I imagine if we were at full health what would have happened today.... sigh.

No Martin and no James. They let Mason go in favor of Guerendo and Robinson and the only speedy RB can't find time on the field with fumbling issues. Farell sees the field more than Tonges now when Tonges is more effective on pass catching.

Activated but just sat on the bench all day?

That's just head scratching
