Jerome ford on gmfb- they showed a pic of him after his wife gave birth to their baby…. Ford was wearing a Bills hat 🤣

Hundreds of games have ended with one team quitting before halftime. Rarely ever does the opposition score 70. It’s impressive imo. They have big play, quick hitting TD machines. but they can be kept in check by a good game plan. Your time shine McD!!! I believe this game will be decided by the mcdermott or mcdaniel.

Yeah, the niners would still deserve it if they can beat Az. Chefs play the jets and Philly plays Washington. We should be top 4 for sure, but possibly worthy of 2nd.

Lol. Dude hasn’t missed a game since 2017….. he’s one of the most consistent pass rushers in the league and is off to a torrid start. He’s a great addition. If he gets hurt, it’s just bad luck that could happen to any other 8M addition we would’ve signed. He’s an impact player. but Ngakoue is a better run defender. 🤣 the more you type, the dumber you sound.

He’s a force. I hope we extend him if he can stay healthy and continue this level of play

Amhersts best! 🤣 Even better!!! Ngakoue is better vs the run!! 🤪 you can’t make this stuff up!!

He really has. He’s moving around like he’s been doing yoga 24/7 since the season ended. I thought I read a stat that said he created a pressure on like 70-80% of his pass rushes yesterday.

The line has been pretty bad. Shanahans offense masks a lot of deficiencies. Mcdaniels does the same things. Other than Trent Williams they have Aaron Banks, Jake Brendel, Spencer Burford and Colton Mckivitz. Not one of which I would consider good or are even playing good temporarily. They’ve all been pretty bad tbh. The scheme makes up for bad OL play

In HS, basketball was my biggest passion as it was my best sport. I played varsity as a sophomore and when asked what my top 2 number choices were. My first choice was 42, for my favorite player James Worthy. My second choice was 44, for Hank Gathers. Just my luck, both were taken by upper class men and they defaulted me to 43. Epic fail and 43 has been 💩 to me ever since

Not a nascar fan, but Richard Petty was pretty cool

No doubt about it. The winner should be a top the power rankings

70 points with 8 minutes left with the ball… insane for sure. I just don’t consider Denver to be a true nfl team atm. especially without their only stud defensive player (Simmons was out). I don’t think a team has ever been ruined by a player like denver has been ruined by RW. I think the locker room is toast and they all hate that schmuck. Nothing will change until he’s gone. Unless Payton wants to draft Caleb Williams next year, they should go to stidham asap. Jmo

I think Miami has the best offense for sure. I’m just not sure if their defensive talents fit Fangios scheme. I think we should be able to move the ball on their O without much of an issue. I can’t say the same about the niner d. Bosa, Armstead, Hargrave, Jackson is a big problem. In order, I think SF, Miami and KC are the best to date, but I have a lot more confidence in the SF and KC defenses to create problems for their opposition. That said, Miami definitely may be the #1 team. Doesn’t seem as if any 3 of those teams have played much in terms of tough competition to date.

I was thinking about it, but I’m really hoping that he switches his number next year. 43 🤮

Well done, thanks. Discipline, discipline and more discipline. I’ve noticed that from our DL this year compared to last as well. The DTs have really been staying in their lanes for the most part and when they don’t, a DE is usually there to clean it up. Confusing the OL is a key for sure. edit: rewatching some of the defensive highlight, we rushed Milano or Bernard and dropped 50, 57 and 56 on several occasions. It’s so nice having Bernard in there instead of the robotic edmunds and his terrible pass rush. 43 has been a revelation. And we must give a lot of credit to Mcdermott and Babich.

Ok. I just rewatched it again. I had been looking for a leg trip. Didn’t think about him tripping him with his hand. He did grab and apply pressure to his inner thigh/knee. I stand corrected.

It does seem that way to me too, but in what way? We’re blitzing less than any team in the league (yet leading in sacks). At times he’s dropping back some DEs into coverage and bringing Bernard or Milano to take their rush spot. In general, it looks like Bernard has been playing an attacking style, trusting his instincts and being decisive, replacing the exact opposite in edmunds. I think a lot of it has to do with confusing the QBs with different coverages (and playing vs bad OL’s), but others could probably be more descriptive in how we’re getting it done. The addition of Floyd has had a lot to do with it as well. overall…..I’m very pleased with our D and mcdermott calling the plays. We seem to be playing very fast. But also….Zach Wilson, Slimmy G and Sam Howell. Sunday will tell us a lot. I’m not so much worried about them going over the top as I am breaking screens and runs for huge gains and TDs

No doubt. 9 in one game….. this % will change drastically as the games mount. Nothing against our pass rush…..it’s one of the best DL’s in the league, but we won’t maintain this pace. I’d be happy with 9 sacks over the next 3 games combined.

For sure. Our pass protection was amazing. I don’t think Josh got touched all game. Has anyone rewatched and found out how many times we used the TEs and RBs to help? Iirc, I think we used 6 offensive lineman on a handful of occasions as well. Get Josh ample protection and we should roll

Great post, thanks. I agree with everything you said…. except Tua getting sacked 9 times. 101 pass attempts he’s been sacked once. Their offense gets the ball out of his hand so quickly, I don’t think it’s possible to sack him more than 2-3 times unless McD can put together the perfect coverages and take away their looks in the first 2 seconds. Gonna be tough, but maybe McD is the man for the job. He’s been up to the task so far

I’d love him, but not for our first while he’s already getting paid. 2nd and other draft/player consideration, sure

Glad you went to the game, saw our boys kick *** and had blast 👍🏻 Latavious Is a beast of a blocker and a beast of a tackle breaker. He’s still fast “enough”. I love him as our 3rd down guy and hope he’s that guy all season. I definitely prefer him over Harris. One of my favorite Beane gems of the offseason. As of right now…. Beane looks to have had a GREAT offseason Lawson was also to blame. He hit the RT with an inside jab step then accelerated around the outside and was all over Howell pretty quickly.

Thanks. I haven’t rewatched the game in detail yet, so I can’t comment on his overall blocking. What did you make of the “trip”? I’d call it a great block.

Yeah those were money!

Can mcdermott disrupt the timing on their quick pass attack? Can our offense control the clock and run the ball effectively. if we can do both, I think we can hold them to 18-24. if we can do one, but not the other, 27-32 If we can’t do either, 35+
