McVay chose not to give the ball to Gurley for the first two drives and then none in the whole last qtr.

He has lost it, our O line is beaten up and Goff is On he verge of being a bust, a bust about to get a massive pay rise. 
 

The offence scored 3pts for the game. Made 1/13 3rd downs.

McVay needs to find a plan B, and FFS figure out how to adapt in game which he is poor at.

Just finished watching MNF.. Crazy good game. Every time one team looked like they had control the other would make a huge play... Sort of had the feeling the 49ers rookie kicker was going to miss the game winning FG. Full credit to Seattle, they were under the pump early and found a way. 

Haven't seen a huge amount of the 49ers but thought Garoppolo was pretty poor and on that evidence may be what holds back the 49ers going deep (or could be one average game, as I said haven't seen enough this year but not overly sold on him)

A tie might have been a more fitting result as there was nothing between the 2 sides in a riotous affair.  I thought Garoppolo was reasonably good without being outstanding.  He's had better games this year though so there's upside.  Both QB's were about as good as each other today.  Whoever had the ball last ultimately won the game so the Niners were a tad unlucky. 

The Packers go to San Francisco in 2 weeks time and that result will have ramifications with the Vikings & Seattle looming large in each respective division.

Jimmy G made some big mistakes in the second half with Sanders off, was high, should have been picked multiple times but in saying that, his own players dropped a few of his passes. He is essentially one season into his on field career, next two months will be telling for the niners and JG.

Cracking game to watch, but f&dk me I hate them both ?

Definitely thought the tie was on the cards, would've been a fitting result. I felt Garoppolo didn't seem overly confident stepping up into the pocket & had a lot of off throws, lucky he wasn't picked off a few other times not all his fault but. 49ers were due not too many sides last this long unbeaten

Not having his go-to guy would have made a difference. George Kittle is becoming to Jimmy G what Gronk was to Brady

The 'Interception' from Goroppolo was from a muffed catch by one of his receivers and they dropped a few other easy ones including one in the end zone for a missed TD.   Those QBR ratings often don't tell the true story GtB

Packers have got the bye then we come to your house in week 12.  A Mini-showdown or perhaps even more significant with regards to the outcome.  As always,  may the better team win.

Only saw the highlights but it sounds like it would have been both a fun & frustrating watch. There's a bit of Alex Smith about Jimmy G at the moment. Nothing wrong with that but it will be interesting to see if he can elevate himself to the top echelon of QB's. Jury is still out as despite seemingly having been around forever, he's still relatively inexperienced.

Haven't been carried away with the 8-0 start. There's been a bit of "dancing with your sister" about the '49ers so far. The Seahawks were just the start. The real season starts against your mob. That game has been moved to SNF.

Anyway, Bills, Pats & Chiefs this week

Your D is very good (2nd in yards allowed) so Garoppolo doesn't necessarily need to be a star QB. 

Your running game is 2nd in the league too (behind the Ravens only) so Garoppolo just needs to be managed well. 

The Packers/49ers is a good match-up too as the Packers have improved their D and their running game as well.  Thus,  taking the pressure off Rodgers (about time!)

Interesting game on MNF. Tough one to lose but I also kind of expected it, though didn’t expect a kicker from the street who flushed 2 previous to choke like that. Injuries are mounting and the roster is quite young, Pettis and Samuel’s 2 drops really hurt. 
 

Jimmy G did struggle to step up when it was on the line but at that point he was missing Kittle, Goodwin and Sanders who he’s built instant rapport with. Seattle are very good but giving Wilson the ball 3 times in OT doesn’t help. Far and way MVP at this stage.

What a crap game. That guy should be banned for a while for smacking Rudolph with his own helmet. Disgusting.

Crazy end.

Garrett has to go for big big weeks, there is already talk of him losing his contract at the Browns.

Pouncey will also get suspended for the punches and kicking he does to Garrett in retaliation.

But tbh, Garrett must cop a 16 week suspension. It has to be a year for that.

He connects pretty well. 
 

Rudolph got ejected for a H2H that caused bleeding from the receivers ear. There was some dirty hits in the game.

To go from 49ers v Seahawks a few days earlier, and then to that.

Absolutely unbelievable scenes from Garrett yesterday... Yes Rudolph shouldn't have gone for Garrett's helmet on the ground but that sort of retaliation is unacceptable, deserves that ban at a minimum

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury.

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
