⛏ SF 49ERS vs AZ CARDINALS 🌵 Gameday Thread - 2019 Season Week 11

It's a divisional game and these are always tough. But, if we're any good, and we all think we are, then we win this game. It's at home and it's important.

Every game from now on is a playoff game. We have started from a very good base of 8 victories. Yesterday's loss sucked, but if we're any good we go .500 in the second half of the season, and that's a first round bye under normal circumstances. I don't care where we get those 4 victories, but this week at home is a good enough start.

But please no more injuries. Enough already!

Green Bay game will be tough, Saints game
Will definitely be hard and division games like rams will always be tough

If Sanders and Kittle are still out, they might lose this game. Hate to say it, but its true. This is the worst receiving unit in the NFL.

We'll need to get back to running the ball - that means Staley, Tomlinson and McGlinchey need to get their heads out of their asses and come to play.

I hope Kyle makes the tackle position an open competition. No gimmies, whoever is best in practice, gets the start. Week to week.

I'm not liking this matchup. This one will come down to the wire. We'll probably be flat at the start of the game too.

Expect us to look flat like the last time we played them.

Kyle Juzczyk said he was part of a five-lead change game in Baltimore. He said today's loss was one of "the most emotionally draining games I've been a part of."

Why I can't see a win here even with Kittle. If Sanders is out, they're going to double Kittle and we'll have to depend on Bourne and Deebo again.

I have no faith in this OL.

OL should be fine, just rust in first game for the tackles. Kittle played fine without Sanders. I'm more worried about if they'll take the game seriously.

We barely beat them with Kittle and a cohesive OL. This might be the easiest game left and this won't be easy. I'm sure Peterson wants to redeem himself, Buhdda.

Has anyone seen Kittle walking around yet? He was in the a booth last night instead of walking around on the sideline with the boys. Makes me wonder if his injury is more serious and they're hiding that. He needs to play against AZ if Sanders is out. Also, I think we should take a look at Dez. If he wouldn't be a disruption, we could use another veteran WR to help this squad.

Kittle looked like he wanted to be out there so badly. I'd be down with dez, heck bring back garçon at least he can catch a ball. Jordan Matthews looks pretty good right now

If we go street fa, it's AB or bust. Matthews is on the Eagles again.

I don't think those guys are healthy. There's rust and then there's whiffs.

They had enough time to heal. It's rust but Staley seems to be on downside of his career, not just this game. McGlinchy has always been a little suspect on pass protection but is a beast at run blocking.

Both games vs cards are on short weeks. At least the boys can get a practice in or two this week. The running game looked soooo good before the past two games. I wonder what has changed other than teams loading the box. Kyle needs to address this. Maybe I will call him later and let him know.

Kyle is going to have to coach way better for us to win this one. Screen passes to screw with Chandler Jones. Whatever it takes to win. They'll have David Johnson back this time and we need to stop their run game.
