You can make these same type of excuses for all losses for any of the teams with two or fewer losses.
Definitely can do that for the Hawks game, and talk oneself into why they should be undefeated.
Long season left to play, but it is clear that the 49ers are no wherr near as invincible, particularly on defense, as they looked a couple weeks ago.
You can do that for any 1 score game. Part of my point was the 49ers are effectively 0-2 in 1 score games this year.
We’ll see what happens with the defense. They just played 2 teams with good offensive lines and KC was completely lights out on 3rd downs last night.
I think Burrow will pick apart the 49er’s secondary, as he is healthy now.
Week 8 will be an interesting flip comparison between the 49ers & Hawks.
Both teams playing the opponent that beat the other in an upset in week 6, except both the Hawks & 49ers are playing at home in week 8.
As both a Bengals and a Seahawks fan, I doubly hope you are right about this!
Quality first drives excellent by both offense and defense.
.
And these uniforms. Forgot how great these pants were
Rocking my 'Tez jersey today.
And again on the second set of drives!!!
Not so much on the third defensive drive
Defense is starting to frustrate me.
They should be getting off the field quicker.
Frustrating
Offense in a lull
Defense needed a break
Yeah, i don’t think this is happening.
Dooooont youuuuuuu believe it!!
Wow
That was a shock
Your First Place Seattle Seahawks!!!
Missed the game as I was at a family function this pm but it sounds as if the Hawks made up for blowing that game in Cincinnati! Can’t believe they are first in their division this far into the season.
The 49ers have a young inexperienced QB. He’s throwing a fair number of picks now. He may have shown some tells.
In full season picks, have Hawks 12-5 and 49ers 11-6. Missed by mile on Bucs and Pats (unless Pats heat up)
Yeah, that’s part of it. I caught the Bengals / 49ers game yesterday.
They did show a Tyler Lockett TD on a game break. Looks like he had a good game.
Purdy’s had some issues the last 2 games. Some of that is missing Trent Williams and Deebo. He’ll adjust. The interception in the red zone was him pushing too hard and a great play by the LB. It was 1st down, throw it into the stands and try again. Shanahan will go over the tapes on the interceptions he’s had over the middle. He’s not reading something right there. That can be worked on in the film room and practice,
What worries me is the defense can’t seem to get off the field on 3rd downs like they were. The zone isn’t holding up up long enough for the pass rush to land all of the sudden.
Yeah the Bengals had a few good 3rd down conversions yesterday, for sure. That must be an irritation to 49ers fans.
