wtf does Vegas think we are? The Chiefs?

Sometimes that high of a spread is good. Good enough to think we will win but maybe not cover. If it was 2.5-5 maybe I'd be worried. I think we win

Trey Lance must be starting

A 15 point spread is ridiculous. Davis Mills is playing a lot better than Jimmy right now and we're going to have problems covering Brandon Cooks.

Vegas odds lol. Wouldn't count out a 27-13 win or 28-14

all you have to do is place all the defense in themiddle of the field.. jimmy can't throw anywhere else

Go 49ers!

but we can run the ball.. with Deebo or Elijah or Wilson or whoever Kyle puts back there. We'll be good, dont worry

I'm more interested in what is happening to jimmy when he gets…"drifty" . Everyone here watched him play well in 6 of last 8 games. During those games he was:

FOCUSED

LOCKED IN

HYPER AWARE

SUPER CONCERNATION

Thurs he was unfocused, not locked in, drifty, not hyper aware, NO SUPERCONCENTRATION…so what the heck happened?. Reminded me of the great golfers, Nicholson, Tiger, Arnie Palmer …who could read every green they ever won on , like magic. And then, suddenly, one day they couldn't. And it could go from week to week.

That is where i see jimmy now. Can't read the green nor make the putt. WHY? We were favored over Titans, but no idea why. How does a guy go from hyper aware one week, locked in…to nada? There has to be something. He has the tools, but occasionally, it all goes away. Heck, he started off like a house afire…and then it all went away. Poof.

What in the heck is going on. Not seeing a guy completely covered up is one thing. But doing it again, and again? There was just no focus there. Is it a visual thing? We know he can do it. So what is the difference between last week…and this one?

One thing for sure. Stafford had a crappy game yesterday. He played terrible. But the rest of the team put him on their back and won it despite him. He easily played as badly as JG. We, OTOH, were not able to carry jimmy. Our CBs continue to be chum for sharks or in football parlance are meat for the wolves.

When jimmy played poorly, there was no there , there, to back him up. The Rams were able to carry Stafford, and ultimately won the game. That right now is the difference between LA and SF. We got nobody to carry our QB if he gets drifty…and the Rams D can carry their Qb. Our problem Thurs was nobody to pick up the slack when our QB went south. The DL was magnificent. The CBs/DBs…not so much…ok, they stunk.

And that is every bit as big a problem as when Jimmy goes off the rails. Right now if draft were tomorrow, I'd pick CB, CB, and CB with first 3 picks.

Maybe it has something to do w/ Mitchel coming back giving us a 1-2 punch against the Texans 30th ranked defense against the run

We had a nice run, but we are a representation of our coach. We are not a consistent team.

if i was DC i would happy to let them run, then get gift INTs after, especilly after first down..

The spread has nothing to do with how good a team plays.
