    49ers starting ILB Dre Greenlaw listed as questionable with an achilles. 49ers don't take their ILB's off the field much. If Greenlaw plays, I would really look for MLF to try and isolate TE's and maybe even Jones on him.

    We’ve been playing two months straight of back against the wall football. The 9ers haven’t played a meaningful game in almost a month. I think you want to take the ball first again. I think we might be able to get in a cheap shot with our sharpness vs them knocking off the rust. And then right away, you kind of have them and their crowd stunned.

    It’s looking like off and on rain. Maybe if Purdy is in a rain drive you can take a couple risks with single safety and make him try to go over the top. He’s got small hands, a weak arm AND the receivers have a better chance of drops with a wet ball. I think there are enough factors making a long pass unlikely that you can get aggressive on underneath stuff.

    Yes, thank you.

    I ain't superstitious (late, great Jeff Beck), but stars seem to be aligning .

    Expect a lot of penalties Saturday. The officiating crew doing the game called the most penalties during the regular season, averaging 15.3. Packers and 49ers were both in the top third of most penalized teams.

    They do not run whole crews in the playoffs. The NFL puts together new crews with the highest graded officials.

    Most of sf penalties must come on the defense side because I didn’t see many at all from their offense in 4 games. Or maybe they were penalized earlier in the season on offense.

    Christians dad, Tim Watson (drafted by Ron Wolf to the Packers in the early 90s) watched all of the 49ers tape. His analysis was really close to what I saw too.

    The thing that stood out from Purdy that both of us saw was how regularly he completed those deep out routes. Deebo and Aiyuk both run those routes really well, especially aiyuk. And Purdy throws them with great anticipation. You know why they’re getting there, but still, when you see that ball hovering in the air off of his average arm strength, you’re thinking it’s a house call every time and instead it’s a freaking 20 yard gain.

    23 and 37 are snappy guys who can really break on the ball. Don’t be surprised if they sit on one of those and make a house call. Purdys luck is going to run out on those.

    This was a really bad matchup, but this is “pad level” coaching tape.

    Oh shit! 30 hours away and the hourly is 85% chance of rain from 6pm-11pm. If there’s 85% chance in any given hour it’s gotta be over 99% over the course of the game.

    It’s gonna be a mudder.

    Love has huge hands, Purdy tiny. Passing isn’t going to be easy for anyone, but Purdy might fumble when his arm goes back. Dillon never fumbles.

    This is a completely different game than it looks on paper. 49ers really are the favorite. If anything it evens the playing field.

    Guys who rely less on changing direction and should excel on a slippery surface….

    AJ Dillon
    Christian Watson
    Luke Musgrave
    Jonathan Taylor

    To a lesser degree
    Tucker Kraft


    49ers players
    McCaffrey (he’s surprisingly a north/south guy at his size
    Juan Jennings

    To a lesser degree
    Kittle



    So bet accordingly, degenerates.

    I just made a $25, 8-leg parlay bet to win $2,100

    This is a mud game parlay (relying on a bunch of things that are more likely or less likely to happen in a mud game)


    Under Purdy completions
    Under Purdy attempts
    Under Love completions
    Under Love attempts
    Over McCaffrey yards (he’s a north/south runner who should excel in a mud game. And has fresh legs)
    Over Juan Jennings receptions (hes their only guy who’s not quick and doesn’t require this quick breaks that won’t happen in a mud game)
    Under Aiyuk receptions (relys too much on change of direction)
    Green Bay to +9.5 (shouldn’t be high scoring)

    I fucking love my chances to hit this parlay. It’s obviously long odds when 8’freaking things ALL have to happen, but at +8700, I think the odds make it a good bet.

    ~0.5-1.0" rain between now and kickoff.

    The 49'ers are our kryptonite or should I say LaFleur's kryptonite. Every single marker points to a SF win.

    On defense, they have the best 7 man box in the conference. CBs and Safeties are better than ours.

    On offense, they have a solid OL with the best RB in football, one of the best TEs in football, a QB who had a near MVP season, and excellent WRs.

    Coaching has the root of the Shanahan coaching tree, Kyle Shanahan, with a great DC in Steve Wilks.

    They're also playing at home.

    The fan in me says we have a puncher's chance. A one in five chance.

    The realist in me says 31-21 SF.

    I hope the fan in me wins this time.

    ^ We have a puncher's chance+, IMO.

    12 isn't on his revenge tour so that weirdness is gone.

    10 is playing at an insane level.

    Packers kids are loose. The pressure is on the Niners.

    Track is going to be slow.

    Shanny pulls his own share of brain farts in big games.

    But Joe Barry.

    So yeah, puncher's chance+.

    Totally on board with this summary.

    On paper we look toast but let’s keep the faith and pray our Packers stun the NFL tomorrow

    I still say, our RBs are close if not as good, our receivers are as good or better, our O Line probably as good, and our QB way better. On D, our DBs are as good or better, our front seven also is as good or better - Gary cancelling out Bosa. Our ILBs are shaky, but supposedly their best ILB is either not playing or playing a little bit hurt.

    It would not be as much of a stunner tomorrow night as it was last week IMO.
    What could be more GOOD and NORMAL and AMERICAN than Packer Football?
