Excellent job again fellas. You all did a good job breaking down how many plays (and penalty calls) if they had just gone the other way would have changed this game. And I agree that the last several games were the same way, just they went the commanders way. I guess it’s one of those things where when you rely on those types of plays to win, at some point it’s going to even out and you will start to lose on those plays.
As for this week, it would not surprise me to see them win this week, get us all hyped up again, then lose to Cleveland next week. I mean, it’s what they do. But I think they will lose 19-11.
SF offense just isn’t that good outside of McCaffrey. This defense can’t make the other guys look good. Kittle has not been good this year outside of last week, and while Aiyuk is good, he’s inconsistent. I don’t think anyone could even name another skill player other than Samuel who is out. The defense has been playing well enough to win this last stretch of games, but just containing the 49ers won’t be enough to win this game. I think the 49ers, like the Giants last week, will know they can play a certain style and win. They will try to get to 20 and dare the Commanders offense to get that against their defense. It don’t think they will, and I think it will be ugly getting even 1 TD. The way to change all this is for the defense to get turnovers and give the offense a short field.
I would love to be wrong about this, so very wrong.
