Wish I felt as confident as you. Who were our main pass catchers against the cards? Oh right, kittle and Sanders...

Yeah and we barely won the last time we faced them and I don't care if it was a short week, they had the same amount of time as we did heading into that game

yeah except we had to travel, they didnt

Was with strength & conditioning staff along with Sanders today. There's hope!.....that they'll be back for Green Bay

Lol!

Kittle is absolutely the heartbeat of the offense. How huge is this guy? He's got Juice tossing fools and rookies trying to emulate him. Same effect as Kwon/Bosa/Sherm.

To Arizona...from California. That's the equivalent of going down the block in NFL terms.

We won 6 games Before Sanders got here. But we had Kittle.

We were fine versus Seattle with just Sanders and no Kittle.

When we lost both, we lost.

Silver lining is KS didn't game plan for both to be out. This week he can and plug guys in to have them take the appropriate reps. It's not impossible, but its hard to shift guys into positions they didn't practice mid game. Timing is off, etc. Not that they don't know the routes.

My guess is Kittle is out another week and Sanders dresses Sunday but doesn't play unless we need him. But my guesses suck(except in pickem) soooo....

this is a very good post

I agree we should be fine. I just don't want a close game without both of them out. A win is a win and we need to get this one out of the way because the next few weeks will be brutal.

Honestly....besides the Ravens, none of these games are very intimidating. The injury big is this teams biggest enemy

You don't think the Packers or Saints are very intimidating?

They're no more beatable than the 49ers.

To me any team with an elite QB is a serious challenge. That certainly includes Rodgers and Brees.

To me the game that I want to see most is the Saints game. I think they're built to be a major challenge for us.

Defense that's pretty talented. Good pass rush and great vs the run. Elite QB, elite WR, elite RB who is good in the passing game as well and a very strong OL especially at OT.

If we beat NO at their house it will be HUGE.

Honestly at this point the only game we can afford to lose(if we had to lose again) would be the Baltimore game so it doesn't impact tie breakers for NFC.

I think we have the advantage against any team without Lamar Jackson and Russell Wilson at QB. That extra X factor is the difference in tight games as we saw.

Possibly Murray, Im glad we're playing him now rather than at the end of the season.

Our DLine is that good.

I just don't want to try to beat them with our hands tied behind our backs. Right hand = Kittle, Left Hand= Sanders

Well it looks like one of our hands will be tied - Kittle is out Sunday.

This injury must be really bad. My concern is that he isn't playing because he physically can't, not because we are trying to get him as healthy as possible.
