San Francisco 49ers @ Philadelphia Eagles (Wildcard) | Sunday Jan. 11th 1:30PM PT FOX

Everybody pep up. Damn. Losing to the Seahawks has caused a complete flip in the mood. We are still a great team who can beat ANYONE. Williams will likely be back for this game. Who knows about Ricky. But let's get some juice going. F@ck the Eagles and their piss ass fan base. Let's go in there and avenge what should've happened a few years ago when Brock got hurt. Kyle gonna scheme up a great run game this week, I can feel it. We will gut these b*****ds and send their asses home in their own stadium.

Dag gummmit. Keep the faith. We are on a remarkable ride this year. Let's keep this sh!t going and get Fred back soon.

Which doesn't mean jacksquat

It means more than not doing anything. If he can clear his markers he will play.

but dang it I worry about him using up an active spot that could be needed for someone else.

I would f**king hate for him to be active, and he has to leave early in the game because of something.

We'll see, prove us wrong Rick.

I dunno why but i like us as underdogs. Even our own fans not believing. Sounds crazy but I like being in that spot. Our guys have been dogs all year. Some of our most talented guys not playing. Rookies and random guys stepping in all over the place. Somehow, we won a lot more games than we "should" have. Meanwhile the eagles for all their talent have been strangely inept on offense most of the year. I just know we have a puncher's chance and that's all you can ask for. Guys like CMC, Jennings, Kittle, Brock, aren't just going to go in there and roll over. I'm feeling strangely free and looking forward to this game. Sure we could get beat. But if somehow we can find a way to pull it out what a hell of a game that'll be for the memory banks

As somebody who dislikes Grant Cohn, Lombardi always puts too much of a positive spin on everything
"Great News, Pearsall is working on the side and is a full go for the 2026 season".
Just like when Brock was out for so many weeks.
"Great News, Brock may be back in 6 weeks" lol.....like dude

Please, for the love of God, more speed guys on offense.

Looks like on that missed 4th and 1, Brock had a wide open Skyy Moore running a streak for a touchdown, who he would've been able to hit if not for the pressure.

MORE MOORE. Anyone who doesn't run a 4.7

Bring on the Eagles!

I don't think Ricky is playing. His season is done just like CMC was last year when he had the same injury. I hear it's a very painful injury.

He practiced all week leading into the most important game of the season, and still couldn't go. I'm not expecting him to be in Sunday

If he practices tomorrow he's playing

This

He didn't last week after practicing

It's honestly better if he doesn't play. He's obviously not 100%.

The fact that he's being seen as an option is going to hamper shanahans game plan.

He's going to plan all week about using pearsall and his speed to help purdy. Instead pearsall going to gimp it out for 1 or 2 plays then come off the field and shanahan will have no idea what to do to get speed on the field.

Better if he was for sure out and forced cowing and watkins onto the field for more speed.

I'm not sure how much actual 'practice' actually occurred last week - it was essentially walk thrus

Why would anyone care about Watkins and Cowing.

Pearsall catches a ball and then runs off the field with a sprained toe nail. Hardly reliable.

Because the only actual explosive threat on offense is kittle?

Because the 49ers have the slowest wr core in the NFL?

You need speed and big play ability. We have none...

Without that your relying on mcaffrey to do better than 3 ypc (which he can't) or purdy to slice up and chunk the field himself throwing (which is an insurmountable amount of pressure on him).

This is why the eagles are heavily favored. It's impossible for any QB to work in the NFL with wrs that are all slow as hell with dbs draped all over them and a 30 year old slow rb.
