Wild Card Weekend game thread

[Dr. Gonzo]

Almost a much score drive here already for Seattle.

 

[Van Everyman]

Mac wouldn't have done that

He might have last year. Don’t forget how much the crappy O line threw off everything this year.

That and Stevenson led the team in catches, second in targets, therefore good chance Mac would be looking his way.

 

[MuppetAsteriskTalk]

Impressed with Geno so far. Has barely any time but still effective.

 

[shawnrbu]

Geno is in a groove.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Too early to play prevent, 9ers.

 

[soxhop411]

Loved me the phil collins “in the air” outro music

 

[rodderick]

You think they changed the rule because the Bills are a media darling and Patrick Mahomes is not?

They changed the rule because it's ridiculous that a team doesn't touch the ball in OT. I don't think media darlings has anything to do with it. The Patriots won in OT in the SUPER BOWL and Atlanta didn't touch the ball and the Patriots are certainly not darlings.

This sounds like another Strawman. So many strawman being built, outraged about something that hasn't even happened.

Christ almighty, it was a harmless fucking joke. Talk about mindless outrage.

And yeah, Josh Allen is a media darling, so is Patrick Mahomes who lost to the Patriots under similar circumstances. The fact that those guys didn't get to touch the ball moves the league in a way Geno Smith not having a chance in OT wouldn't. I mean, do we really have to argue this?

 

[CoffeeNerdness]

Mac wouldn't have made that play because Patricia would never have schemed up a clever play where Rham gets lost in the wash and emerges completely uncovered.

 

[MuppetAsteriskTalk]

Impressive and must have drive by Seattle.

 

[shawnrbu]

49ers are in trouble.

 

[BigSoxFan]

That was a really impressive drive there

So why didn't they change it when media darling Mahomes lost to the criminal Patriots in 2019?

And you're the one arguing with an unnamed future argument to be determined.

 

[JohnnyK]

There had to be holding there, no?

apparently there is no holding in the playoffs, just like there was no holding the last few weeks of the regular season

 

[Al Zarilla]

Mac wouldn't do that either

 

[Al Zarilla]

Nice first by Kittle

 

[shawnrbu]

Joe Davis: Joe Buck :: Chaim Bloom: Theo Epstein

 

[DanoooME]

Zero miero from Kittle

 

[Marciano490]

Pretty randy signage on the outro.

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Bruce Irvin..mentor?

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Seachickens aren't going away

 

[DanoooME]

Big sack

 

[E5 Yaz]

Does anyone want to watch that celebrity boot camp show just to see if they don't break the fall off the cliff?

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Holy hell Fred Warner has recovery speed

 

[nattysez]

My FF league plays through the playoffs and I have a choice this weekend at kicker between Gould and Tucker. Given the matchups, I was going to go with Gould, but with this weather, no way. It looks like it could be a total slog in SF today, and very difficult on the kickers.

Forget fantasy football for a minute; this weather could be an enormous factor in the game.

So of course it's now sunny for the game and Gould already has 2 FG and an XP. Sorry @BaseballJones

 

[Van Everyman]

What a call

 

[johnmd20]

SF D is now swiss cheese.

 

[shawnrbu]

Delay of game.

 

[RSN Diaspora]

I’m still not tired of this Geno Smith redemption story. What a pass to Metcalf.

 

[AB in DC]

Since when can Geno hit a pass like that?

 

[heavyde050]

Delay of game.

Yeah, they just are not calling it.

 

[Al Zarilla]

49er board I look at now and then has crashed twice.

 

[heavyde050]

I mean if they are going to run CMC up the middle for zero yards it is going to be tough.

 

[DanoooME]

Purdu has thrown at least 4 balls behind receivers

 

[RSN Diaspora]

Brock Purdy would have been a great 70s porn name

 

[MuppetAsteriskTalk]

Well Seattle has really surprised me here. Looked like they were going to get smoked but they hung tough and made some plays and somehow have the lead.

 

[aksoxfan]

Not impressed by Purdy. He has been nearly picked three times.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Wow. Metcalf just mercd Ward

 

[Mystic Merlin]

Mama there goes that man

 

[johnmd20]

So Seattle has a completely unstoppable offense?

 

[johnmd20]

Brock Purdy would have been a great 70s porn name

Brock Landers better, tbh.

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Wow. What a terrible third down call there.

 

[johnmd20]

3rd and 8 draw play.

Lol.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Very questionable call by Seattle there.

 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Niners have run that play to Aiyuk three times now.

 

[DanoooME]

Woolen has been terrible today

 

[johnmd20]

That draw play gave SF a breath. And they needed it.

 

[MuppetAsteriskTalk]

That draw play gave SF a breath. And they needed it.

I'm not big on momentum and whatnot but it sure seems like that was/could be an inflection point.

 

[AB in DC]

Seattle has a player named Coby Bryant? That's just wrong.

 

[heavyde050]

That was a late hit by Seattle - no call.

Edit - it looked late, but maybe it wasn't.
