“I feel for Robert Saleh because he’s probably losing sleep over covering this offense with so much speed everywhere. They have a great front but you aren’t going to win and get to the QB every down and against this offense and that QB, it doesn’t matter. All it takes is one play for them to go yard on you.”
He also said he has never seen an offense put so much pressure on a Bill Belichick defense as he did the 2nd half of the AFCCG. [Reply]

These guys have had 3 meaningful seasons since Jeff Garcia left town. Yeah, tell me more about your time as NFL royalty back when Reagan was in office...

Just cuts me to the quick...
Don’t forget that Jerry Rice’s great hands were aided by stick ‘um after it was banned. [Reply]

Dude, try your entire 2021 draft. And all of 2022's draft. And first rounders in 2023 and 2024. You probably need to also throw in the 2nds and 3rds from those drafts, too. And one of your young DL. Then you MIGHT approach just the POINT VALUE it would take. You have to add on top of that the value of Trevor Lawrence himself.
No, sir. You DON'T understand what it takes to move up that far. By even suggesting it's a possibility, it's clear that you have no clue what it would actually take. And even then, I don't think the team who holds the #1 overall pick would take that deal.

The last time the 49ers won a SB was in '94 with Young, right? I get the impression that 90% of these trolls weren't even born yet when that happened. [Reply]

Jerry Rice just flat worked his ass off out there. I know this is the week for "Fuck 49er Forever" but I can't get there with Jerry.
Greatest player in NFL history, stick 'um be damned.
I actually really like him too...but fuck him for the next week and a half. Fuck every member of that organization for the next week and a half. [Reply]

Jerry was my favorite player as a kid. 49ers screwed him when they let him go. I can’t believe they forced out two GOAT level players in Joe & Jerry. [Reply]
49ers fans posting on their Super Bowl opponent’s message board about wanting to dump their current starting QB for the pipe dream of drafting Trevor Lawrence in 2021.
You just confirmed that Jimmy G is mediocre, congrats. [Reply]

This isn't a game where either team is likely to clearly just overpower the other and run away with it. So if the 9ers find a wrinkle that works and pushes them to a 10+ point lead, I think that's what they have to keep doing.
You have 60 minutes left in your season and nothing you put on tape is going to matter next season. Let it all hang out. If Shanahan finds a way to exploit the the absence of Thornhill and the heavy feet of our LB corps by passing over the middle to build a lead, he should keep doing that, IMO. If he's dialing up runs that are breaking off the edges and THAT'S how they get the lead, then he'll obviously keep doing that.
I'd say the time for switching horses mid-stream is past us and that includes Andy. If you have a 13 point lead in the 2nd half because you were slinging the ball, then keep slinging the damn ball.
The key to milking a lead isn't just running the football and snapping with 2 seconds on the play clock. It's getting 1st downs. And if you're getting those in the air, keep get'n 'em.
I agree. I hope Reid has learned and he keeps his foot on the throttle late in the game. Go get your ring and let Mahomes do what he does. [Reply]

And he SUCKED at game planning during the bi week. I distinctly remember Kyle getting housed-on multiple times coming out of the bi. and when I looked it up the only time he won coming out of the bi with the redskins was when RGIII was quarterback during the magical 2012 season. Otherwise his game plans were poop.

Serious question here, what did the Colts do right (if anything) to rein in KC in week 5?
They messed up Mahomes’ ankle. And they didn’t have to face Tyreek Hill or Sammy Watkins. Both of them were out with injury. Mahomes was still moving the ball and making plays until his ankle got screwed up in 2nd quarter. [Reply]

Yeah, I was a Jerry Rice fan before I was a Chiefs fan. My parents weren't big sports folks but my dad was a big 'have his friends over for a barbecue and a party' guy. So we had SB parties since as far back as I can recall; really the mid-80s.
Watching him vivisect the Bengals in the SB is really my first clear football memory and so I loved the guy from there through the mid-90s. The '90 Chiefs w/ Okoye and Word are really the first team I can clearly recall watching/remembering so I date my true Chief fandom to 1990, but I was a Jerry Rice fan before that and there's just no way I can ever bag on the guy even if pictures emerge of him placing bets against the 9ers and shooting straight horse steroids into his ass at halftime.
