Their offensive line is awful. Bosa and the boys will eat. Watt will too but we have more weapons to get the ball out quicker

it was awful last year its supposed to be improved a lot

I'm a diehard niners fan, and I'm seriously on the fence whether I think the niners will win. On the nfl pick'em, I chose Niners because it was a toss up and I went for "advantage goes to niners in a tie"

Are you on The fence because of the uncertainty with Bosa? To me that's understandable, but I think he'll sign and play by then.

Nothing to do with Bosa and more the fact they have a very darn good young roster. It should be a good game.

They're a good team. Well coached. Generally win early in the season. We generally struggle early in the season, we've had a tumultuous offseason, Kittle may be out, and Watt vs McKivitz doesn't sound great.

Where do you have the idea that Kittle may be out when he played in the last preseason game?

We have had a tremendous amount of turmoil and uncertainty let the media tell it for a team that has been in the NFCCG the last two seasons. Then you look at PIT and they have a 15 year head coach or more and they have had a quiet offseason where they have been allowed to focus on football and grooming their young players. Over here we have a circus where the HC constantly has us in a QB carousel quandary and our front office is looking like deer in the headlights at times. This can cause consternation but I am biased and believe our guys will win regardless on the road week one.

I know we have the talent edge but also the experience edge and I think we will present a formidable challenge to PIT offensively and defensively. There is NO reason we should not have every chance to win this contest despite our erratic offseason

We're a top team so we get more of the spot light.

Pitt is going through their own qb carousel and the jets are in the same boat as us with moving away from their #2 overall QB

Reports indicate groin issue

Meh, not really. It's all media overreacting. Maybe I'm just numb to the Niners and their drama, but where's the "turmoil"? Trey Lance being traded? Some players may have liked him personally, but I think it was all agreed upon in the locker room that he wasn't very good, not to mention he wasn't even competing for the starting job this season. Nick Bosa holdout? Maybe, but that will go away once he gets here, which will hopefully be soon.

I remember 2014 when it felt like every other week something negative about about Harbaugh would come out, that was real turmoil even 2021 with so much uncertainty at the QB position going into that season.
