I thought this was interesting. The hole on the left side versus where Zeke takes it. [you have to click the tweet to see the video...]

Yea, I get the timeshare during the season, you can't wear Pollard out in November.

But this is it, there's an absolute maximum of 3 games left, it's time to ride Pollard until the wheels fall off and worry about next season, next season.

He just doesn’t have speed or vision honestly.
He used to have really good vision/patience, that's what made him probably the best RB in the league for 2-3 years, but at this point he knows his limitations and plays to them even when there might be more to the outside.

Basically I don't think he trusts himself to win a foot race to the perimeter, and he probably wouldn't.

Which is why he needs to take a massive pay cut or be put out to pasture.

Exactly, I think he knows he can't outrun anyone anymore and his best chance at at positive yardage is just to put his head down and get north-south.

Yep. Remember that play and Troy talking about how he cut up field. All I could think was that if he had just kept going the way he was it would have been even bigger.

We might get stomped but I can't wait to see what this defense is gonna do.

The DBs seem built for this challenge.

Kearse and Donovan just seemed so dialed in to what their role is.

And hopefully they reminded 7 how to tackle.

Yeah, I really hope (and think) they learned last year how physical you have to be against this team.

I'm not actually expecting to win -- though it wouldn't surprise me -- but I do want to see them not get pushed around and force Purdy into some bad mistakes.

Being the most physical of the two teams is going to be the key to winning this game.

That is one thing that didn't happen last year. The 49ers OL was much more physical and really got into the heads of the DL.

I wanna see Purdy get hit several times, forcing errant throws into this hungry secondary.

It's tough. First, is Schultz going to continue holding that block? Maybe. Second, we complain that Zeke doesn't have the burst to run outside anymore.

If we win, one part of me wants a home game next week, but another wants me to see Danny Dimes get his ass kicked and play like shit.

I saw a tweet from some Giants idiot who asked the question, "Is Daniel Jones the best QB in the NFL?" WTF

I assure you that is nothing compared to how Philly thinks about their team and QB.

Dan Quinn lost this matchup last year. This is his chance at redemption at a scheme driven by Mr. Irrelevant. He needs to deliver.

Deep down there's still gotta be some animosity about the 28-3 SB shit show.
