Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

Oh boy. Here we go. I believe it was Jamf that said he hates having hope during the Steelers game thread. Lol. Right now we are brimming with hope.
All past history and dashed hopes aside I think the desire to win the division puts us over the top this week.
We will have at least 4 sacks. Im not afraid of their offense. I know we can score points on them. I would love love love to see Cam have another big game.
One more thing. Half time adjustments are great but lets see a fast start!
WFT 31

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

FFS it's like the fan base has battered spouse syndrome. Afraid of hope? Wear that shit like a badge of fucking honor right now! Nothing better than playing meaningful games in December. Not only is the division up for grabs but we're only a game out of the wild card too. Run the fucking table!

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

I want to see Chase run all over TW...

If Gibson is fit then we should be able to keep their O off the field like the Bills did. If not it could be like Monday and a battle of attrition. I think this new found team spirit will win out though. 28-14 WFT, maybe including a defensive score (Sweat seems to want another! :)).

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

The 49ers have a much better offense/scheme than the Steelers despite having injuries. Their running game led ny Mostert and others is dangerous, they love to run to the outside with blockers on the edges. They have 2 excellent, dangerous receivers in Samuel and Aiyuk, Bourne is pretty good too. A solid OL, DL, LB’s, I watch this team every week and believe me it won’t be no easy game. This is no gimme, they are desperate like us for a playoff spot, should be a hell of a game. We need to play like we did against Pitt in order to win.

I know Matty but how many times have we seen this movie. Oscar winning victory only to be followed by a shit sequel. Calls of we have righted the ship immediately followed by the ship is sinking. Lol
Would you really be floored if we did not play well and lost?
That being said I personally do have hope and think we will win.

Until there's not a reason to be hopeful, be hopeful.

We just knocked off an 11-0 team for crying out loud, we've won 3 in a row, there's legit reason to be hopeful

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

I think WFT matches up really well against this 49er team. Their offense is good, Mullens is capable of getting the ball to his playmakers, and he is more mobile than the last few QBs we have faced. He makes mistakes though, and I think the WFT front four will wreak havoc in that backfield all day. Containing Mullens in the pocket, and stopping the running game will be the keys for defense. This could really be a BIG day for the D. I would like nothing more than to see Chase man-handle TW on multiple occasions.

Offense HAS to get rolling early - bring the 2nd half offense to the 1st half for once, and carry it over after halftime. I doubt Gibson will be available if he has turf toe as that injury usually takes a minimum of 2 weeks to recover (if you're lucky). So, my guess is Barber will get the start, but McKissic will get the most touches.

Will be another tough test, but it should be a W going away at the end.

WFT 37
SF 19

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

This is gonna be a competitive close game. Their Oline and RB group is super talented.

The bills WR group did a number on the 49ers secondary. And their dline ain’t what it was last year.

Well coached team, but we need to stop the run. Cole Holcomb, Everett, Curl, KPL need to be ready to fill gaps. Our dline plays the run well but faces a good Oline.

This gonna be an ugly game...16-13 Skins

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

Shitty news about Gibson...but I’d say really let him heal and rest him for as long as he needs. JD and Barber can handle the load. Also would like to see Javon Leake get some opportunity

Their receivers are really dangerous, Deebo Samuel is like AG, RB/WR, Aiyuk the rookie has been spectacular, Bourne is above available and believe or not Reed has been playing well. Don’t underestimate this team.

What's the word on Bryce Love? Is he even close to playing?

I wonder if they will try to use someone like Gandy-Golden as a change up for the backfield if Gibson is out. McKissick has impressed me, but we need an alternate and with Gibson out... Barber isn't doing a lot, though he's been very serviceable, and he's non-existent in the passing game.

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

Oh, and can someone tell the LB's when blitzing a mobile QB to break down for the tackle instead of going hell for leather for the big hit? Big Ben of all people spinning out of a sack.:)

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

SF is so beat up, I don't see how they score more than 17 on us.

I'm riding the wave folks.

24-17 WFT

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

I don't think WFT is in the position to underestimate anyone. This will be a tough game, especially if they keep the trend of spotting them 10-14 points. However, this offense doesn't scare me. Mullens has as many TDs as he does INTs. He's been sacked 13 times in 6 starts. Their rushing and passing game are middle of the pack. Yes, they have athletes, but their receivers aren't above the caliber of the Steeler's receivers, or even Dallas' for that matter.

It's entirely possible WFT goes out and lays an egg, and SF runs through them...but I sense something different in this team the past few weeks. They are on a mission, and unless they make too many mistakes, turn the ball over, kill themselves with penalties, this shouldn't be that close when the clock expires.

It’s over with Bryce Love, he’s done. We need to move on after this year. I’m for drafting more RB in later rounds...if that dude from UNC Jonte Williams comes out, would love to scoop him 5th round.

This team is hard to figure what we are getting. Are we getting the 1-4 team over the past 5 games or the team that beat the Rams 2 weeks ago?

Backup QB Mullens seems to have some good games and bad games. 26-39, 316 yds, 3 td 2 ints vs a very solid Bills D. They were down 27-10 in the 2Q so how much of the 316 was gimme underneath stuff vs a soft D?

Yet they managed to beat the Rams, they have lots of depth. Javon Kinlaw on their D line has been dominating lately, Hyder the ex cowboy DL has been their best lineman this season. Shanarat hates us and will have his team fired up. We need to dominate on D and the O needs to show up.

Agreed, Shanarat will have his team fired up like did he against the rams, I know this team well, we need to come out fired up like we have lately.

We signed this bowling ball to the PS squad, probably will get promoted for Sunday’s game.

The Gibson injury really sucks man. I was looking forward to seeing what he could do down the stretch. Hope that toe injury doesn't linger too long, and he's back to his normal self soon.

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

I’m guess I’m not the only one speculating Haskins future with the team.

[url]https://www.yahoo.com/sports/comments-logan-thomas-leave-us-172552770.html[/url]

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

My sense is that his future is directly tied to what they do in the draft. If a QB prospect they are high on falls into their lap at some point in the draft, Haskins is probably done here. If they are not able to draft a QB prospect they are high on (I don't expect them to reach/draft a QB just to draft one), then Haskins likely gets a second chance here - at least for one more season.

What is Trent bitter about? He chose to leave, so fuck him!!

Kyle Shanahan on Trent Williams' excitement for Sunday, says he hasn't talked to him about it but "I think you guys probably know the answer to that."

Re: Wft vs niners prediction thread
 

This year we carried 3 qbs on the active roster bc of Alex Smith's situation. Thank goodness they carried Alex even though they probably thought he wouldnt see a snap.

Traditionally teams dont carry 3 qbs but looking at the league, seems like carrying 3 qbs is becoming more popular and the majority position.

I'll bet he is excited to play his former team, that is natural. His problem is Chase is a lot more athletic than Trent is at this point. It will be a battle, but I see Chase getting the better of him more often than not.

I haven't watched trent play too closely this year but I've seen him shut down gret pass rushers, let alone our promising rookie.

Like I said, it will be a battle. I'm not expecting an amazing game from Chase, but I don't expect that Trent will handle him all day by himself either. Chase will get his, and he will free up other guys to get theirs as well.

Watching that link TW seemed to be the only OL on their team that held his own, but he also was just not attacked very much. Looked like the center of their line gave up pressure. Also, in one of their forum posts it showed SF had given up 81 qb hits (WFT 78) thru week 12, tied for 4th worst in NFL. Would be surprised if our DL could not find ways to attack and end up with another multi-sack game.

I watch him every week, he looks the same as ever. Nothing is changed, still dominating. They are on their 3rd string center.

Yup I noticed the same thing -- Trent had to actively look for guys to block while his linemates were getting swarmed. That poster w QB hits total was interesting to see.

We should be able to get to Mullens but Shanny is a smart coach.

Our LBs are going to be tested. Seems like 9ers O line is good at run blocking and 9ers have a trio of good backs.

For once in a long time, Im actually interested to see how our D coach approaches this game. Having a Landon Collins type to drop in the box would be nice. Maybe make Curl your 3rd DB and go heavy nickel like we did before Collins injury?

He was great in college up until his injury. But man that injury was over two years ago. The Redskins took a gamble on him knowing he may miss the entire 2019 season, but now he has missed the 2020 season, and what's next? He came back to practice in November for like a week, and then back to the IR. After Alex Smith, it's hard to count anyone out, but it's not looking good for this kid. Signs are pointing to him never being the same guy. I don't remember it taking 2+ years for anyone to come back from a torn ACL. Was there other significant damage to the knee, or follow-on injuries?
