Look into the Future

As of now the 49ers own all the tiebreakers between Dallas, Philly, and Deetroit.

Dallas and Philly because of the ass-whippings, and Deetroit because of our Conference record of 7-1 over their 6-2 record.

Deetroit has 2 games vs the wildly inconsistent Vikings, and the Cowboys, but the rest are patsies.

Dallas has by far the hardest path with Philly, Buffalo, Miami, and Deetroit on their schedule.

Our remaining toughie is Baltimore. A team I have not really seen all year. And Seattle/LA /Wash/AZ should hopefully be gimmies as well.

The remaining games for all of us are as follows.

DeetroitDallasPhillySF
ChicagoPhillyDallasSeattle
DenverBuffaloSeattleAZ

So, if we can somehow win out (with one Philly loss), we’d be the 1. Even if we lose to Balt, we’d still own the Conference tiebreaker over Deetroit and Dallas should they all lose 1. Philly of course would have to lose 2 for us to get the #1 seed.

This weekend will determine a lot as far as seeding goes. If Philly goes down, they would fall from 1 to 5 should we win. The 49ers have played pretty well on the road, but I sure would like that bye week.

    AA out, as are Ray Ray, Burford (maybe) and Dwelley. Mitchell ad Luter are doubtful.

    Kinlaw to get AA’s reps.

    Speaking of injuries, Drew Lock may be getting the start. Geno was hurt in practice Thursday. Ye olde groin injury.

    And they signed Sean Mannion. A backup QB that somehow hasn’t played with the 49ers at some point in his career.

    We exposed the Philly LBs in our win however.

    Philly waived one and made some efforts to patch their weaknesses.

    Given the moves they’ve made I think Dallas has the stronger unit.
    All said, if we have to go on the road it would be better to play in Dallas rather than Philly.

    Just need to handle our business.

  7. Re: Giants: I’m guessing (and hoping) that Ohtani was not their Plan A; there really was very little chance he was going to sign with SF. I’m hoping their Plan A has been seriously, and I mean seriously going after Yamamoto, Lee for CF, and a Snell and a Bellinger, et al. When you need multiple *good* players, you don’t target one at a time, there’s a plan to bring them all together. I don’t blame Z one bit for not getting Shohei, but man, they’d better start reeling in the other *good* players before they’re gone. So far, G’s have only signed a 30-year-old Japanese “slugger” with a lifetime BA of under .200…..

    Yeah, they need more than just one guy. Esp one who is injury-prone and 30.

    I’d go after Max Kepler. Bellinger. Yamamoto. Snell. I wanted Soto but we didn’t even try.
