Seahawks @ 49ers Playoff game thread

[SirAndrew]

Go Seahawks! Is it strange that I almost resent the 49ers for being contenders with a rotating cast of subpar QB’s?

 A bunch of bad teams and 1 game against Seattle. They've had a very easy schedule this year only playing 1 team that finished better than 9-8 and they got smoked in that game(KC). It's going to be interesting to see if they're really this good or was it because of the easy schedule. Reminds me of Buffalo's #1 ranked defense last year.

Gino Smith is better than EJ Manual 

I will accept this now

whoa really?  Dang.

 

EDIT: of course, didn’t the Bills only play 2 games against such teams (Chiefs and Vikings)?  Would have been 3 if the Bengals game happened, but alas…

They did beat the 10-7 Chargers at home by 6. That's their only win vs a team with 10 or more wins.

Yes because they have played a veritable who's who of sucky NFL teams:

 

Bucs, Seattle, Commanders, Raiders, Cardinals.

If you think their schedule was easy you should go look at the Eagles.

He’s still looked really good and he seems very composed. I’m not saying he’s an all-pro but he looks pretty good.

Have no fear. The more he puts on tape, the better off we are.

Good to see the Seabags trying to make this a game.

He was in total command of their offense 30 seconds after he walked on the field for the first time.

He's not going to be on highlight reels firing off 60yrd lasers or hurdling people, but there's a lot to be said for smart, tough QBs who know where the ball is supposed to be and when it's supposed to get there.

Like most rookies, I'll reserve judgment until next season once teams have more time to break things down in the offseason and then someone finds something that works against him and everyone else copies it.

 

Let's see what his counter to that is. That's where a lot of these stories come to an end. Once they get figured out, they have no effective counter to it.

 Yes I forgot about that game but...Chargers didn't have either starting WRs(Williams & Allen), & Bosa & still barely won that game.

They're having some success playing small ball. 

 

Have yourself a day Geno Smith!

I’m not literally asking. I know who they played. No one. Every one talks about “hot players “ / “teams.” No one accounts for the quality / difficulty of oppositions. It matters in the nfl
