49ers Stuff...

I keep expecting one week we'll actually play well, like we see all around the league when bad teams play over their heads.

But it hasn't happened yet. Maybe this is the week it does, especially if Porter and Pickens play. And Cotton doesn't start the game thread.

4.5 seems light, but I also thought that about the Rams/Skins this week and it was tight all the way through.

The way the NFL tries to keep games close I'm not surprised it's 4.5. I don't think the game is actually going to be close no matter what the scoreboard at the end says. And if we were somehow to get in a close game against the 49ers? I 100% know our head coach will fuck it up. It's just what he does. You think holding a 2 score lead in the 4th quarter is hard against a team like the Cards or the Colts? The 49ers will destroy that lead in no time with your shitty coaching.
 
These bitches have had so many chances to take one little step forward and build some momentum by stringing wins together and they fall on their faces every time.

This is another one of those times, find some way to fluke into a win here like happens every week around the league and you're probably sitting at 7-5 a few weeks from now after playing Tennessee and Philly.

You'd probably be the favorite to win the division at that point and might even find a way to get to 10 wins.

But when you have one of the absolute worst HC's in the league it's much more likely that you'll go 1-2 over these next three, losing to SF of course and then finding some mind numbing way to lose one of the two tanking teams.
 
I have no reason to think this but I have a gut feeling we will beat the niners. It’s insane right? Theoretically we will have circles coached around us, but I’m making the call.

I did eat some shitty frozen pizza last night around midnight so that might be my gut instinct.

I miss the days when I could have even a fraction of that confidence in the team. I almost feel like I just shouldn't watch this one. But I probably will anyway.

Here are their defensive stats through 8 games. This will be the best defense we've faced so far this season. Green Bay was the next best according to current rankings and they held us to 13 points.

Key traditional stats (per game, league ranks)​


  • Points allowed: 19.5 (6th)
  • Total yards allowed: ~292–304 (3rd)
  • Passing yards allowed: ~211–223 (8th–9th)
  • Rushing yards allowed: 80.9 (2nd)
  • Yards per play allowed: ~4.8 (top-tier, around 3rd)
  • First downs allowed: ~17.4 (5th)
  • Third-down conversion rate allowed: ~37.9–40.4% (around 10th–17th; middle of the pack)
  • Sacks: ~1.9 per game (around 26th; below average)
  • Interceptions: ~0.75–0.8 per game (mid-pack)
  • Rushing TDs allowed: Low (around 0.5 per game, top-tier)
  • Passing TDs allowed: ~1.4 per game (around 10th)

I'm seeing -4 which seems incredibly fishy to me. It should be at least a touchdown.
 
From Grok:

The Dallas Cowboys are 2-4 in games where they have been held under 100 rushing yards in the 2026 season.

at Houston75Win34-30
vs Tampa Bay50Loss16-24
at Green Bay48Loss13-23
vs Arizona93Loss30-33
Summary:
  • Record: 2-4 (.333)
  • Average rushing yards in these games: ~67
  • They have averaged a low yards-per-carry (around 3.1) in these contests and have struggled overall when the run game is limited.
In contrast, their wins with stronger rushing outputs (e.g., 204 yards in the win at Philadelphia and 179 yards in the recent win at Indianapolis) have been more decisive. The data indicates the Cowboys perform significantly better when they establish the run.

The teams we beat are a combined 5-10-1. 49ers are allowing 80 rushing yards/game. We ran for 179 yesterday and still nearly lost.

I'll say this, and let me preface it by saying I think we're going to get curb stomped. But Shanahan has traditionally struggled against Fangio.

Unfortunately we don't have Fangio, just his defense.
 
I think the only way we're able to keep it close is by San Francisco overlooking us. Which, I doubt they do after losing to Atlanta a couple of weeks ago. I predict a score around 30-13.

Jerry's "a cheap coach is just as effective as an expensive coach" boast is about to be tested big time.

Honestly, a win would be the worst thing for us right now. A proper shellacking that will make Jerry's press interactions as awkward as fucking possible would be preferrable. I don't think I could handle smug Jerry after a SF win within the context of this season.

What do you think that will accomplish beyond watching Jerry?

I doubt it really impacts anything we do this season or the offseason.

Probably nothing. But neither will a win.

We just beat a 6-8 million HC with our 4 million HC.

I assure you that is running through Jerry's brain cell.

No but the 49ers have always been a team I can't stand. So I'll be like most Cardinals fans (Against the Cowboys) and treat it as my Superbowl if we win. Which we will not win and I won't take the loss hard like losing the Superbowl.

At least this is a game if we lose, it's expected. If you win it will feel great. Expect nothing and you can't be disappointed.
