You may want to change the title of this post because as it is, answering “Yes” to the title is answering “No” to the imbedded question.

I gotta disagree here. The clock was our ally and the strategy worked. Tua ended up needing to drive the field with no timeouts and got baited into a game ending mistake.

Gabe goes quiet but then can go and swing a game all by himself on occasion. Sherfield is just kind of nothing.

https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/pass_yds_career.htm This may not feel like news but everything is relative for a guy that was supposed to be the most sure fire bust of all time. Currently sits at 97, passing a couple brand names yesterday in Roger Staubach and Michael Vick.

I don't see that happening. Their whole track star routine has sputtered against every quality opponent, they're injured, going into a notoriously difficult road playoff environment against a team whose strength is getting pressure with 4 rushers.

And Sam Darnold played a decent game for the 49ers today. In fact the only guy from that draft who isn't kicking around is "Right Josh" Rosen.

There's a lot more good than bad. A lot more, just like there's been a lot more winning than losing since he got here.

We need Douglas back for at least the second round. Dane Jackson can handle Allen Robinson.

It's a fair question, but no I don't think you take a link out of a unit that's gelled for an entire season and put someone in cold off the bench.

He played a game that was reminiscent of Beasley's best ones.

Benford - INT, handled Hill well Rapp - Game sealing INT Hyde - Punch out on Hill to force incompletion and punt Poyer - Lays the lumber to set up a 3rd down Jackson - Huge tackle on Berrios to force punt, good coverage in spot duty T. Johnson - Big TFL, great in run support The Harty TD was the turning point and Josh won the game in the 4th quarter but man it was this veteran secondary that gave Tua fits when our pressure wasn't even getting home. Miami ran 17 plays in the second half total and got two first downs. Two!

Packers are going to get it done, eliminating the Seahawks and Saints. Now the only NFC question is whether the Rams will win for the 6 seed or lose for the 7 seed.

I have a theory that 32 teams is just too many. There aren't 32 starting caliber QBs in the league. There aren't 32 HC caliber guys in the league. Hell, there aren't even 32 starting caliber punters in the league. If it weren't for sports betting and fantasy football you'd have tons and tons of unwatchable NFL games.

Who in the world could have guessed the reversal of fortunes between both teams after our loss to them.

The 49ers may get to yawn their way into the SB.

He’s probably the only QB to ever lose a starting gig because a trainer accidentally stabbed him.

Yes, I believe positive loose vibes yield better results than the crucible of pressure. Imagine the tension release of making the playoffs after losses like Denver and Philly happened this season.

It’s more like we’re in a three way all in and locked up the side pot and have to fade a combo draw to win the main pot too.

Best friendship with Bengals 2017-2024 RIP Best friendship with Titans 2024-???

I love it when someone starts an argument here and the very first sentence is just factually inaccurate.

Not every knee injury is an ACL.

And the next day obviously giving it up to Andy Dalton’s charity. What an awesome time. If only Tyrol could have put up more than 3 points the next week… Only saw her a couple more times but I know that she runs a puppet theatre in New Mexico now.

I have great memories from that day. I figured we were screwed but I shed a single manly tear when KW scored the TD. Later that day I didn’t want to torture myself by actually watching the Ravens/Bengals game and I had a first date at a nice restaurant. Around 7:30 when I knew that game would be ending I surreptitiously checked the score and saw the Bengals won. Used the energy to parlay into getting laid and watched the highlights at 3am when I got home. Let’s go Buffalo.

If it was JUST about home/road I'd consider it depending on how badly sore he is. But this is about quality of opponents too. We need to be able to avoid Baltimore in the second round.

Weird comparison at first glance but Josh reminds me a bit of Derek Jeter in the way he handles being off the field. Charms the media without really giving them anything, doesn’t insult the opposition, makes it about his teammates. Dating a starlet and yet we know hardly anything about it.
