I can't understand how that game was so close with Hurts having FIVE TOs.

Herbert getting murdered on the other side of the ball.

hopefully not bc I hate them. I probably hate them more than the anyone else to be honest..

Vibes are bad in Philly though. We've seen them have a hard time regrouping after rough stretches (see 2023).

The more pressure on Hurts the more tunnel vision he gets, that Oline is deteriorating

Yep. It's week 15... and it's not like they've struggled due to injuries to key offensive players. AFAIK, Brown, Smith, Saquon and Hurts have played the entire season, so if they haven't been able to figure it out yet, I can't see how they will do it now when the noise/pressure is increasing.

Hurts truly needs everything to be perfect around him.

If the Rams lose to both the Lions and Seattle, it gives us the flexibility to still lose one more game either at Indy or home Chicago and still win the division, as long as Seattle loses at Carolina in Week 17.

No way do the Rams drop 3 of their final 5 games. IF they did, nobody should be scared of them.

Nah this is eerily similar to '23 when they collapsed

Definitely. This year it's more the offense than the defense though. That coordinator is going to get canned.

I don't know where people rank Herbert but you can't question his toughness. He has a baby face but a tough man's body. He's taken a beating all year. I think they said he's been sacked 45 times which is 3rd most in the league. His O line is a mess right now. On top of tha the was playing with a fractured hand that was surgically repaired a week ago. That had to hurt every time he got sacked or hit. They showed one play where the Eagles wefre trying to knock the ball out of his hands and the slap came down on the broken hand. Ouch.

I jokingly posted that he has to do whatever it takes to keep Trey Lance off the field in a meaningful game.

He's never gonna reach his full potential until they get a guy who understands passing football there. That pass game is painful to watch.

I know it's highly unlikely, but imagine we snag the #1 seed final week of the season. Would be a crazy story

Harbaugh is a great coach but he's tied to Greg Roman. That was one of the things I didn't like about him in SF. Roman is a good OC but he's old school. He likes the running game and a conservative passing game. With a big athletic QB like Herbert they could have a more wide open offense.

Yeah I dont think we win the division. Having to play LAR and/or SEA in the playoffs though is gonna be tough. Those are the only 2 that scare me but at the same time should just be grateful if we make it to the playoffs despite the major injuries we have.

Crazy interesting season.

I'm pretty certain LAR doesn't want any part of SEA or SF in the playoffs

SF doesn't want any part of SEA or LAR

SEA doesn't want any part of LAR or SF

No other team out there is as scary as the other 3 top teams in the NFCW.

If the 49ers win their next 2 games at home Tennessee and away Indy, we will automatically go ahead in the standings and seeding of the loser between Rams at Seattle next Thursday night.

Seattle favored 1.5 over rams next thursday.

49ers line at colts not up yet because vegas does not know qb yet for colts
