SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS at TAMPA BAY BUCCANEERS - 2024 Season Game 9

Its that time again for a 49ers week!

So I like our chances against Tampa Bay even on the road and the team's struggles this year.

I can't help but like Baker Mayfield. He's a really good QB. Against the Bills, he looked sharp at times displaying good decision-making and accuracy, especially when in the short-to-intermediate passing game. Obviously he's mobile but nothing (I hope) the 49ers defense can't handle but he can run and extend plays, like Purdy. Mayfield's big issues are consistency and getting raddled with pressure. What I see is that against tougher defenses Mayfield can sometimes regress and force throws or try to make plays happen when there's nothing there.

Obviously Tampa hung with the Chiefs despite not having two of their top WRs so we should be a bit worried but, still, go 49ers for the win!!!!!

I like our pass d against them, keep them one dimensional and we should be golden.

Also, where's the tailgate? I'm in Tampa for the game...would like to meet a few from the group.

No real excuse in this one. Tampa Bay is missing their top 2 WRs at minimum and are coming off an OT MNF game. We're coming off a bye week.

Get it done.

Just hope we don't overlook them because that team is damn scrappy. Taking KC to OT on the road missing their top 3 WRs is definitely a moral victory.

Gotta slow down White and Irving. I trust Warner Vs Otten and our offense should be able to move the ball vs their D.

Last time we faced Baker, Bosa and co. rattled him hard and Bosa planted his OSU flag as revenge. We dont have that same pass rush anymore and Baker has improved significantly since. We are lucky Godwin and Evans are out but sheesh, Baker almost upset the defending champs in their house in the rain by slinging it like a madman.

This is by no means an easy W. Don't be shocked if Baker lights up the scoreboard. Again, we need 30 to have a chance.

49'ers favored 5.5 points.

I see us getting the win and AZ losing to the Jets and Rams losing to Miami.

We get first place to ourselves and add to our lead at home against Seattle the following week.

They looked pretty dang good to me last night and could have won if they went for the two point conversion. Lets not pretend any of these games coming up are easy or "we should win".

Not a TB fan but they more than held their own last night and should have won.

They did hold their own. But Vegas has us still 5.5 favorites on the road because Tampa has an awful defense and they are without their 2 top receivers.

Also Tampa now down because 3 games back of Atlanta since Atlanta has tiebreaker since beat them twice.

Plus we get McCaffrey back.

we handled them rather easily last 2 seasons, but Baker is playing very well. It will be a challenge, but gotta get the win. No excuse. this is a game we should win.

what is the expectation at place kicker? another Carlson game?

I feel the same way. Sometimes it' s games like this when subs come in and play like stars. Plus, a lot of pride is on their side.

The Chiefs aren't that good. They could have lost several games this year and we could have beat them with our third string team in.
