  1. Three weeks in is still a really hard moment to draw durable conclusions. But I do think the 9ers look excellent. The dolphins are high flying but I'll be curious what they look like in week 12 etc.
  2. I actually think the offense has improved from the peak of disjointedness last season. It's not all the way polished, but I thought the raiders game in particular was smooth. Yesterday left a lot of meat on the bone. I didn't like all the 2nd-and-long weak runs at the strength of their line at all. I wish Gabe was a better separator outside of long routes.
  3. Really happy with the OLine. I'm looking forward to watching again. Last week, they gave a lot of help to Brown and the play designs were great (it wasnt as pretty when Brown was singled up with Crosby). I'm really curious to see if Brown had a good game wrt his 1:1 matchups.
  4. There might be some truth there, especially with the notoriety of the crew we had today.
  5. I think I was more concerned with an earlier incompletion to diggs over the middle (in terms of an ill-advised Josh throw)
  6. Defense wins this one. Offense was moving pretty well I thought. But undisciplined penalties and then the 4th down play call was unpleasant.
  7. Yep. Great perspective on this one. I think the game comes down to the OLine vs DLine matchup and our willingness to pound the ball.
  8. Post-war drops in partisan animosity were (imo) likely tied to a new widespread medium (TV), limited outlets (3 news channels?), and stringent news regulation (FCC regs). Then greenspan, cable news and the internet...woof. We're right back to the newspapers and rancor of the old days. But I'm rambling lol. I hope this bears story is a nothingburger
  9. The OLine and play design. Essentially, whomever can perform on the OLine and also cover for Spencer Brown.
  10. It's baffling. Even if the giants intercepted half of what they should have it would have been a brutal game in terms of turnovers from Purdy.
  11. The chicken tender thing is too much for me. I can't get behind that sort of nonsense.
  12. Will our offense kind of way to mitigate their strong DLine? That's the biggest question to me.
  13. Long season and it's hard to say. Looks like we have real competition this year. Buffalo or Miami.
  14. That second tackle is particularly impressive, knifing through traffic like that.
  15. I really liked Cook's game. I think the praise is a taaaaad strong but so be it. Hope he continues to show out. I love Murray's running style and want to continue to see him EARLY in games.
  16. The line play was the crux to yesterday. Be interesting to see it against teams with more than one good DLinemen, going forward.
  17. I can't shake the thought that Elam will have a successful career. I hope it's with us.
  18. I really want to see more of Sherfield in the passing game. I know Gabe played well but I think Sherf has something to offer out wide.
  19. Fade routes/throws on crucial plays are INFURIATING. Glad it's not the Bills pulling that crap.
  20. Harty will come around I think. Although I also think they liked his deep ball potential and are now realizing chasing the deep ball will currently hamstring the offense (until things open up down the road)
