There is an approximately 100% chance that Kearse plays.

Does anyone know what SF's "strength of schedule" was... and ours?

Probably about the same.

There was a tweet a few days ago in one of these threads, probably this one, saying they were like bottom 3 (top 3 easiest schedules) while we were somewhere in the middle of the pack.

I was talking about at the beginning of the season. Since the NFC East turned out to be so good this year, our strength of schedule is harder now than then.

Yep, I do think they're really good, but we've almost flipped with them from last year. This year they're the ones in the easy division, they've only beaten a couple of good teams, etc... while we came out of the toughest division in the league and beat several playoff teams.

I wonder if they have given any thought to playing Márquese Bell. He played so well in preseason but hasn’t been on the field much this year. Maybe he got Jabril’ed idk

That or he is a safety and we have just sort of been stacked at safety. I mean Mukuamu just now finally got playing time and really it was almost as a corner. I think it was just an issue of depth and opportunity. Bell isn't sitting behind slouches. He will get his opportunity eventually. Just might not be until next season.

One of those DC.com shows, I think the Break, was floating the theory that Quinn knew he was going to play Muku in the playoffs for a while but held him back the last few weeks to not show Tampa anything.

If we held them to seven, it would mean that we did break Purdy.

Basically how open the WRs are. Shows how much better the Shanahan-WCO is than our old Garrett Coryell system.

Do you give it a lot of credence? Not sure I do .

He will be abused if he does play.

Pretty much. The exact percentages can probably be argued, but I don't think it's that hard to watch the all-22 and grade how open receivers are.

One game to watch is the SF/Atlanta game.

This might be their "blueprint", just as what ours has been.


Strong running game, force a turnover or two after stopping their run.

There are major differences in their lineup for that contest, like Garopollo instead of Purdy, no McCaffrey, no Javon Kinlaw.

The other closest match with some of their current depth chart is the Raiders game.


There is a different theme in that game and that is that McDaniels had that short passing game with screens and roll-outs that killed their defense. There were a few breakdowns here and there, but in general, they had their way with him and with Stidham as the trigger.

Prescott just needs to be less jittery under duress from their rush and break the pocket.

If he does that, the downfield plays will be there. This is Chinese fire drill time. And attack the two Wards, they are very grabby and panicky.

Wouldn't surprise me, Quinn admitted that he was experimenting with guys the last few weeks and never threw Mukuamu out there, I'd be shocked if he just decided to throw him out there on a lark.

This might be the game to start Bohanna next to Hankins at DT and see if their combined fatness is enough to plug up the middle and allow the LBs to flow to the ball.

All that movement screwed us last time

I just hope we come out jumping everything and punch them in the face. Their QB needs to experience some adversity. Shits been too easy for him.
