SF 49ers vs Falcons Pregame Thread - 2021 Season Week 15

Anyone have a clue yet which falcon players are out due to Covid?? Or is the NFL all the sudden keeping that quiet now that it could benefit the 49ers.

Gotta hand to NFL and NFLPA…any of those players who tested positive can play if they have 2 successive negative tests. But….there will be no more covid testing from Thurs on out…until next week of course. Go figure ….

That's like us losing 4 consecutive games due to DPIs and DBs not knowing how to stay in phase with the WRs…PLUS, 2 Ls due entirely to STs. How could we possibly have a 7-6 record with 2 catastrophes such as those? You're right…it just doesn't figure.

Answer probably is as posted before, NFL Parity…only thing they didn't anticipate tho, was COVID/INJURY PARITY. This entire yr has been skewed by INJURY PARITY, and this is what it looks like. Right now in NFC, only a couple teams are mathematically eliminated, and about the same in AFC. Just a shame injury had to be the parity maker. But no question, that is exactly what happened.

LETS GO!!!!!!

Well....that perhaps, and that DVOA, and other cool analytics and stuff can't really be taken too seriously as the be-all/end-all.

Unless you're Brandon Staley.

this is so f**king stupid, lol

They have a good chance of missing the playoffs if they don't win this Sunday against the Dirty Birds.

Do or die of all their remaining games.

I'm of the opinion that if they lose to the Falcons they don't belong in the playoffs.

We will win but if we don´t win by 3 scores we will be one and done in playoffs.
