I’m not sure if it’s as important in football, since the opening is much larger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

co_springs_billsfan Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I read somewhere that ABC will simulcast two MNF games for what remains of the year, and it happens to be both Bills games. Awesome news for those of us who don't have ESPN. The source was not exactly reputable: https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/nfl/abc-will-air-2-monday-night-football-games-in-december/2020/11/30/8817d232-3345-11eb-9699-00d311f13d2d_story.html .

Straight Hucklebuck Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 (edited) I expected the 49ers to morph into a offensive team after the injuries to Bosa, Ford and Thomas. COVID and further injuries slowed that process. But this team has Aiyuk, Samuel and Mostert, and Mullens is not a cardboard cut out like our backup Matt Barkley. Without John Brown, the Bills passing game loses it's top gear, so I expect a difficult game. Stefon Diggs is going to have to get deeper than 10 yards. The path seems to be going after Nick Mullens and throwing away from Sherman. Edited December 3, 2020 by Straight Hucklebuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also it appears they are trying to get the running game going. I'm not worried about the passing game at all really. I think they will be ok, with Brown out teams are going to focus on Diggs a lot more, but Beasley will still light it up.

wjag Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 I keep patiently waiting for that one deep go route to Diggs. Seems like they are saving the attempt for some time in the future. I guess the one they threw to open the Chargers game counts. Let me revise. I keep patiently waiting for that one deep completion on a go route to Diggs that results in a TD.

I keep patiently waiting for that one deep completion on a go route to Diggs that results in a TD. That one to Diggs last week really wasnt drawn up though. It looks to be a cover 3 beater and they got quarters coverage. Josh just saw the match up and wanted to throw the deep match up of Diggs versus Safety versus check down to Singeltary. The deep go routes are great against man coverage which noone wants to play on us anymore. When they do we tend to run the mesh concepts rather than the go. I think the exception is the Gabe Davis go route from the Chargers game on teh free play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said this week that it’s unlikely that quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo and star tight end George Kittle will suit up this week. Shanahan laid a timetable of a few games from now in terms of when it’s possible that the pair could return to the lineup. https://sports.yahoo.com/sounds-bills-won-t-see-143051393.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YattaOkasan Posted December 4, 2020 Share Posted December 4, 2020 Simms has sorta been off with us this year. I think he didn’t think we would cover the spread against the jets. Picked rams and pats to beat us too I think (dolphins too?). Obviously most the experts thought the hawks would beat us. On the flip I think he thought we would beat the titans (I know he said we would beat the cards). So he’s just been bad at predicting for us.
