Look at the bug crawl out of the woodwork. Been pretty quiet until now Frodo
I post every week. I also work 6 days a week so it’s hard to keep up. There’s zero reason for me to hide. Teams have the same number of losses and we’ll have the exact same record on Sunday. Suck it up buttercup Seattle is winning the west this year.

If Purdy struggles/loses against Cincy, do Niners fans clamor for Darnold?

49ers have one of the best rushing offenses in the league.
But everything hinges on Deebo.
They probably know this.

Changing the QB isn't going to help them. They're just stuck until Deebo gets back. He's a key cog in that offense, both passing AND rushing.

Without his perfect lineup and 5 yard dump offs/ lateral passes going for 50 yard TDs that Mr Irrelevant guy looks kinda irrelevant.

They still have the best roster but it’s nice to see them squirm and bring out the old injury excuse.

Purdy didn't look good, that's for sure. But their vaunted defense couldn't get off the field, CMC fumbling in the red zone, and their FG kicker choking another 40 yard FG hurt them more than Purdy's play.

Cousins played well, he wasn't sacked once. He got some pressure, but the Vikings' offensive line held up pretty well all night. I don't think we can expect the same results from our O-line against the 49ers.

Also, the 49ers were without Trent Williams and Deebo Samuels, and CMC wasn't completely healthy.

We'd better get a lot healthier before Thanksgiving.

Well, Vikings didn't have Justin Jefferson, one of the best WR's in football. They also had other injuries popping up during the game.

Cousins is a trip. When he's ON, he can be damn good. When he's off.......bad.
No excuses and nobody is gonna' feel bad about your injuries. Niners got outplayed, and it was beautiful.

The 49ers are tied at #20 for sacks this year. This includes 8 teams above them and 4 teams tied/below them with only 6 games played. Their pass rush hasn't been particularly fearsome this year, and Bosa has been Mr. Invisible so far. Plus, they need to get healthier as well heading into late Fall. Their success is built around a few key contributors so they better hope those players get/stay healthy.

You're right about that. Even their pressure rate this year has been mediocre. They haven't blitzed much, up to now, and last night it looked like they were rushing just 4 all night. I wonder if Wilks will start dialing up the pressure?

Still, we can't have an O-line performance like we had against the Bengals last week. Our line has to get better in both pass protection and in run blocking.

Sarcasm? He's one of the best players in the entire NFL.
where is he? did he play last night?
I was really sad over the Niners loss, but I just watched Trump attorney Jenna Ellis balling in court and now I feel fine. More than fine, if this wood dosent calm down in 8 hrs I may have to see a doctor.

The same can be said about the Niners. They were without Deebo Samuel and they had plenty of injuries during the game as well.

But I agree that the Niners got outplayed. The Vikings had more first downs, more total yards, longer TOP, fewer turnovers, and were better on 3rd down. No excuses at all.
