Game 5 – The Crux of the Biscuit is the Injuries

From a preseason that started with a raft of injuries has continued on to be a maddening trent with this team. 4 games into 2025 and we are at the top of this list. The preseason saw

  • 2024: #1 most injured
  • 2023: #29 most injured
  • 2022: #9 most injured
  • 2021: #3 most injured
  • 2020: #1 most injured
  • 2019: #6 most injured
  • 2018: #4 most injured

The outlier of course was 2023 when we went to the Super Bowl and yeah, you know. So, what looks like a pretty solid start to the season has devolved into a giant clusterfuck of injuries and replacement guys. Our once-full WR room is down to Scantling, Robinson, Moore, and Kendrick fucking Bourne, whose drop led to the punt return TD.

The TEs are doing OK, minus the fumble last week. Derp.

The defense of course lost Nick Bosa for the season. So, our pass rush, while not spectacular, WAS getting a lot of pressures and hurries. Last week, not so much. Saleh has his work cut out for him to get Stafford off his marks and to keep LA off the scoreboard.

Yeah, I don’t know. The offensive line isn’t blocking well, the pass pro is iffy at best, and LA’s pass rush is one of the best, the pass defense is not getting ANY turnovers, pass coverage is spotty at best, and the run defense is shakey.

But every time I think this team is gonna smoke a shitty team like the Jags, they suck. When I think they will suck, they pull out a satisfying win.

Hah! 31-27 Niners.

    The Rams are gonna try to take away the underneath stuff so Shanny needs to adjust.

    Hopefully they don’t score 7 coming out of the break.

  2. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Need a pick to kick off this 2nd half

  3. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Got to take advantage of their mistakes.

  4. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Shanny has to stop running on 1st down.

  5. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Our line has shown they can’t overpower defenses on the goal line as we have ZERO rushing TDs this year.

    DO SOMTHING DIFFERENT!!

  6. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    This is all on Shanahan. Stupid obvious passing down.

    3rd QB come on down

  8. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Where’s the flag?

  9. Winder's avatar Winder says:

    We are fucking jinxed it’s never ending. Jones is a gamer feel bad for him

  10. Winder's avatar Winder says:

    I’ll take it.amazing

  11. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    The D looks tired, no rush

  12. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    I have very little faith now that we will win this.

  13. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Why does Kylel the momentum

  14. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    It’s all about the fucking red zone. Those first 2 TDs were off passes and misdirection.

    Last 2? run run fail.

  15. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Kyle going conservative to protect Jones

  16. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Brilliant call. Fuck Shanahan

  17. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Saleh needs to go blitz heavy.

  18. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    They are doing what we did in the 1st half

  19. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Stafford has all day

  20. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    A blitz would be nice

  21. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    IF we lose this it is squarely on Shanahan for not being able to understand that he shouldn’t be running on 1st and goal.

  22. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    2 more blown opportunities on the goal line.

    No good!!!

  23. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Fucking A. We blocked a pick.

  24. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    So now a hurt QB, a passing down the Rams have the advantage

  25. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    There you go. Rams adjust. We don’t.

  26. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    D is hurt and tired. Apparently Shanahan thinks we can run inside despite getting nothing inside. No misdirection.

    Shanny being outcoached.

  27. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    I guess Kyle has decided his best chance to win is to go with a hurt QB, brilliant

  28. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Even the announcer is asking about a blitz

  29. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    We’ve had maybe 1 run get through the line.
