Niners worried about their special teams. Have they seen ours? Lol

That is the one part of the equation that worries me....special teams. A missed extra point or FG...a botched punt return. Fuck.C.H.U.D.Comment

That's the way I'm looking at it, too. We deserve to be expected to win. There's a reason Vegas has Green Bay more heavily favored to win this weekend than any other team, by far - it's because they are just the substantially better team. San Francisco's a good team, too, but it still took a patented Mike McCarthy undisciplined playoff game and bonehead 4th quarter playcall to seal the deal against the Cowboys, a team that I don't think most Packer fans would have been too worried about playing next weekend if it had come to that.Originally posted by Fritz View Post
By the 2nd round of the playoffs, there are no easy matchups left - every team you face at this point has either put together a dominant season (usually 11 wins or more) or they have already won a playoff game against a team with a better record. Every team still on the board is dangerous now. I won't lie - I'm nervous about this game like I am about any playoff game, but I'm not actually worried. If you want to be the champions you have to think like the champions, and Green Bay needs to go into this game confident that they are in command of the situation. If they do that, they should control this game.... and if they can't do that, then maybe Aikman was right and they weren't as good as we thought.
But I don't think that's the case. I think Green Bay is the best team in the NFL this year, and I think they're going to make that statement loud and clear Saturday night.Comment

Aikman’s view is interesting - the Niners primarily rushed 4 and were soft on Lamb.

MLF said he expects Cobb to play. Bakhtiari will practice today and they will see how he responds. Did not get into specifics on Z and Jaire, but if they play, but acknowledged you don't just throw them in there full time as if they've been playing all along.I can't run no more

If they play Adams single coverage he will get 100+ hrs that secondary. With Cobb back and Lazard improving the only way we lose this is if Lafluer wants to meadure his rushing dick against sf.Originally posted by Fosco33 View Post
Or our special teams....
Also is this jaires first practice back in pads???All tyrannies rule through fraud and force, but once the fraud is exposed they must rely exclusively on force.

Well, if San Fran approaches the Pack this way, this will be one of those times that it will be fortunate that Rodgers has so much control at the line of scrimmage. He trusts Adams, and he wants to throw to Adams. So if SF plays single coverage, Rodgers will find Adams, over and over again - unless San Fran has some lock-down corner who can stop every type of throw.Originally posted by Fosco33 View Post"The Devine era is actually worse than you remember if you go back and look at it."

Jaire practiced the Friday before the Lions game. They didn't activate him because that was his only practice that week due to Covid.Originally posted by Upnorth View PostI can't run no more

First part of the game, Lamb was getting catches, but the plan was largely working because 49ers were getting pressure on Dak by rushing 4. It didn't work as well once Bosa got hurt. Don't know how they will approach things if Bosa can't go. 49ers don't like to blitz a lot, but they do like to run a lot of stunts.Originally posted by Fritz View PostI can't run no more

And he'll have Cobb back for quick-hitters over the middle. Cobb and Adams together will chew that soft coverage up and spit it out all over the field.Originally posted by Fritz View PostComment

As a total aside, I appreciated Aikman's self-effacing dig at himself.Comment

Listened to KNBR this am. The morning guys aren't kidding themselves. They give the Niners a chance, but aren't over-brimming with confidence.
Lots of talk on how Jimmy G is going to handle the cold AND the injuries. E.G: Jimmy G. is getting the start.
Again, stop the run, stop the run, stop Kittle, stop the run.Comment

The 49ers are coming off hard fought wins against the Rams and Cowboys. They’re hot. They can beat anyone.
The Packers get Bakhtiari back full time and get Z and Jaire back as part time players.
If we can win this game, our playmakers will be in game shape and ready for full time action against the Rams/Bucs. If we somehow win that game with some health luck, we should be the hottest team in the dance.
This could be our year. But first we need a good game at home against SF.
