Best and Worst Guernseys
2021 and 2023 were the best indigenous jumpers. 2022 was the worst by a long way.

Aidan Johnson
You don't have to like him but I think in times like the ones we're in right now you need an Aidan Johnson on the list. The pack splitter type that can get you through those boghole type games and also protect the Jeffo's and JVRs. Give me an honest toiler that works his butt off over a wasted talent right now.

Make no mistake, we were embarrassed on national television tonight. The Seahawks defense mollywhopped us. Even without Williams and Pearsall I find it hard to believe we couldn't muster more than 3 points. I'll admit that I go hard on Kyle here a lot. This has been his best coaching season and last week he was incredible but I thought his play calling was poor tonight. I don't know why we have to telegraph exactly what we're doing on 4th down when we go for it. No hard count, no misdirection or zone read, juat a straight up shotgun with no backs in the backfield. I know Purdy can make plays with his legs but gee wiz. This game was going to come down to Seahawks offense and Niners defense and that was where it was won. For whatever reason we had no answer for their ground game which wasn't anything crazy but sweeping runs and short screen plays. Our LBs could never come up to make the hit successfully, our D is suspect but runs in the flats and curls are not something we've given up much this year. We should have lost this game by 20, people will talk up Darnold's game and it's was ok but he didnt have to do much and left a lot out there I thought. If you told me we'd hold them to 13 I'd have assumed we won by 20 9 times out of 10. I'm annoyed but at the same time the 1 seed would have flattered us a lot. The wildcard is about where we are and an achievement in itself considering the injuries.

Tipped ball intercepted by Drake Thomas. That's probably it

They're excellent. We're really struggling without Trent Williams in this one as they are swarming at the edge. Making us work for every inch.

They won't have a chance if they cant get anything going on the ground. It's going how the Seahawks want it. Darnold doesnt have to do much, we seem caught out by all the screens they are running.

Farewell Clayton Oliver
Is it an automatic indictment of us though if he does well? What if he just needed a change?

NFL
Today's game is coming down to Seahawks offense v Niners defense. I'm expecting a lot of motions from guys like Smith-Njigba, it tends to throw us.

AFL v English soccer pre season
You'd be lucky to get 4 weeks off in the EPL. Earning £100,000 per week it's probably worth it

I'm actually really sick of not winning the tipping comp. Really need my 15 mins of fame.

Seahawks could have dirtied the bed had the facemask on Smith-Njigba at 3rd and 16 not happened. Still would have likely won but fine threads.

Big call. Not outrageous but they did win 4 on the trot after Kraft went down. After losing Parsons at Mile High the D kind of fell to bits. Can't make a run without a pass rush, I stand by that.
