I'm trying to wrap my head around the fact that SF are favorites in the game today

I get NO is bad, but they're not that bad

I didn't touch that game with any bets. But if I did, I would take NO

[FireChans]

I mean, if Spencer Rattler achieves what Mac Jones has achieved in the NFL, he’s one of the more successful fifth round picks at QB.

 

He’s currently 0-7 as a starter.

 

Mac Jones has at least won 40% of the games he’s started. 
 

The Rat would have to go on a 5 game winning streak to have a better winning percentage than Mac.

 

Combine that with the Shanny system historically being executed pretty well by backup QBs since forever, and well, the Niners should be fine.

The saints are the worst team in the league by a mile and they are starting a QB that doesn’t belong in the league. Thats it. Not complicated

So, i have won as many games as rattler.

..... the niners are gonna steamroll the aints

The Saint's calling in life seems to be serving as a warning for others: dead cap will kill a team. They mismanaged their cap. They are second in the league in dead cap.

 

With one or two exceptions, the Top-10 dead cap teams have middling records.

 

All Hail Brandon Beane... the Bills rank 18th in dead cap, and improving.

Mccaffrey is back to form. He beats New Orleans

And lost fewer!

My only pause with this game is the 9ers are missing a LOT of guys in addition to Purdy. But I have the sneakily suspicion that the San Fran 2nd team skill players are better than the Saints starters. We shall see.

It feels like it has been a decade of bad cap situations in New Orleans.

their problem is that they continue to dedicate cap to bad players not that they manipulate the cap

That and having seemingly no plan at QB since Brees fell off in 2019.

And yet somehow they keep putting all the chips on the table. 

[Walking Tall]

The 49ers will win by at least 10.

Drew Brees raked that team’s salary cap over the coals for years.

If Mac Jones balls out I think it's final confirmation that Shannahan's system is truly idiot proof
