Obvious sellers are hard to come by…not too many teams are cooked before November.

Can crickets play cb lol

People are lamenting we never make big moves but there’s some more subtle moves like this one that would really excite me. Not sure anything like that is gonna happen either though lol

Man they got fleeced if true lol. I wouldn’t have hated bringing him in but that’s way too much to give up This is the post of the year haha

I really thought a lot of what went wrong in the pats game was getting the plays in wayyyy too late before and this seems to add some more evidence to that

I think we’re at minimum considerably better in the trenches than we were in that playoff game so this game will be its own thing. Doesn’t mean we’ll win though obviously 😂. At least some of the gloom on here seems to be ‘look what they did to us last time’ and the circumstances have changed quite a bit. I do think no Hayden hurst will fiddle with their gameplan a bit too he was pretty heavily featured last year. if our pass rush steps up I could see a potential path to giving the bengals offense some resistance. It’s not like we had a healthy von miller or Daquan jones last year either lol and who knows maybe the mini bye helps von out a bit. but yea your final sentence is the whole question…I don’t really know where either of these teams are literally anything could happen. I’m not ready to crown the bengals just because they beat SF…SF with no Deebo or trent Williams is a 6 win team probably.. their oline is roughhhh outside of Williams he is a massive player to be down

Yea I was gonna add that but I figured I’d get ‘josh Allen turns the ball over too’ in response 😂. Even with the turnovers I think sf probably puts up 550 yards and has a chance to win with Deebo/Trent Williams in there i don’t think there’s any question that our offense has a much higher ceiling than sf missing those two guys

They’re both vulnerable which is why I could see it going either way based on red zone defense.. for me it comes down to who can plug up the run without committing too many additional resources the best which was obviously cincy last year but this year I’m genuinely not sure. Cincy is one of the worst rushing defenses in the league and we’ve gotten better running the football. If SF had trent Williams/Deebo I think that bengals game would’ve been a very close shootout im really interested to see how we do against the cincy defense and the now nick Bolton-less chiefs. We’re being hard on our offense from the TB game but Tampa is honestly one of the better defenses in the league. They were very similar to the jets defense in all the advanced metrics before playing us but have now dropped a few spots

Idk I don’t see the mvp bets showing up on any of the apps and when I Google it I’ll find a link to place an mvp bet through DraftKings or whatnot and the link will just take me to the football Home Screen maybe I can drive to CT and try it 😂

I think it’s pretty fair game to dig into your opponents previous match up especially when it’s the game that caused the masses to declare they are back to top form because they beat a supposedly elite opponent SF has yet to win a game without a healthy Trent Williams and Deebo Samuel and there’s a clear reason for that. the cincy defense is gettable in a lot of areas much like our defense is…49ers were just too depleted to do it. Linebackers have looked worse this year, corners aren’t very good, safeties aren’t good, Hendrickson is an absolute beast though and dj reader is good. on offense they’re scary for sure I don’t think anyone is arguing that. Haven’t been great running the football most of the year though. We notoriously struggle against TEs up the seam and they have replaced Hayden hurst with irv smith which is a pretty big downgrade. Hurst beat us up pretty good in that playoff game

This is a perfect example of how the broadcast angle at full speed really doesn’t tell the whole story.

It’s crazy that Brady was so good that his backup qbs got ample chances to start on other teams without having to prove a thing

It’s a really interesting situation…looking back in the past it’s mostly been players winning it on the best team but you can’t really point to a time where they obviously passed up somebody with better stats because there were better teams either lol I really don’t know what would even happen in a hypothetical scenario where maybe he is pretty clearly the best statistical qb but the bills snag a wildcard or are the 4 seed or something like that I do understand the point you’re making for sure but +1400 for the guy leading in tds thats team is only a game behind the division/conference leader with an opportunity against a lot of heavy hitters feels like pretty good value. I’d roll the dice on it if it was legal in this state 😂. I figure he should be in the +700/+800 range in what I’d put his chances at of goin off in the second half. I was pretty shocked to see +1400

Davante Adams to buffalo would be pretty funny after he publicly complained about that Taylor rapp hit lol he basically said rapp has to play dirty because he’s bad

Has to be…they are in this game if he doesn’t miss a laughably wide open davante adams there

He’s younger than Derrick Henry lol

Haha it was a jokey way to say I watched the bengals play a lot this year 😂 yeesh. You said stats don’t matter, I countered with I’ve been watching the games I’m not just looking at a stat sheet. Then I added SF got whooped in the trenches on the offensive side of the ball because they were down two huge pieces on the oline. All super relevant info to your earlier retort about how the bengals are more physical on both sides of the ball. I literally replied directly to your ‘narrative’ and refuted it with factual information…you just don’t agree which is fine

Ohhhh that is the issue I’m having haha that explains a lot Yea it’s a bit surprising to me that he’s the leader in tds and only a game behind the dolphins/chiefs with one to play against both those teams and he still has long shot odds

Lol I mean it’s not just stats I’ve seen them getting gashed in the trenches every week. I shelled out for the good ol Sunday ticket 😂 49ers without Trent brown/Deebo and Aaron banks going down midgame were a lot easier to manhandle than they would’ve been normally. If we were in a similar situation and had to play cincy without diggs and a few starting offensive linemen I would absolutely agree with the sentiment here that we’d get utterly humiliated. Right now I think cincy being a 1.5-3.5 point favorite sounds about right

Trying to place that bet as we speak lol I think he’s one good game in the national spotlight away from jumping to +400 At some point even if the team only wins 10 games I feel like his stats could be a tier above everyone to the point where they might have to give it to him but I have genuinely no idea how they’d handle that if it happens 😂.

This is shaping up to be a really interesting season of mvp voting…I think just based on his situation of having to carry the defense every week josh is probably gonna finish with the best stats. Not sure how many wins it will translate to though. the futures bets do seem to be heavily influenced by who’s winning but that could be partly factoring in certain guys turning it around. Hurts is up near the top in futures betting but if the season ended today I don’t think he’d have a chance. Mahomes lost some skill position talent but his defense has stepped up, I thought he was a sure thing based on the schedule remaining but that broncos loss hurt. Tua will keep roasting bad teams but he’s got a great running game that encroaches on his stats a bit. josh at +1200 seems like a pretty insane value bet for a guy that’s leading in some major statistical categories right now.

If this year taught me anything there’s no automatic wins or automatic losses. A week ago KC looked like a guaranteed loss but now a week later with no nick Bolton they look very beatable. Cowboys are just the NFC version of us that is wildly inconsistent, philly don’t seem unbeatable either. We could win or lose any of those games and there’s just no sense in trying to predict anything 😂

They’re 29th in rushing ypg and 29th in rushing yards allowed per game. I think that’s a much different game Sunday if Trent brown and Deebo were available…they racked up 400 plus yards without those guys. not saying we’ll win but cincys single game against sf is getting a little bit overblown imo,they haven’t looked like that all year even in their wins.

Oh yea he’s valuable for sure but asking for two firsts and a pro bowler ‘just to get the conversation started’ seems like a hard line negotiation tactic. They would take that deal in an absolute instant if anyone was crazy enough to offer that (which I doubt anyone would be) rams traded two 1sts and a fourth for Ramsey from the jags and even that was a ton.

That seems a bit hyperbolic from their side haha they’ll certainly want more than we would offer though.. no way anyone gives them that. the two firsts is already pushing it before getting to the pro bowler 😂
