I will say this. 49ers better hope they don’t get us in the playoffs.

Yes they completely owned us yesterday, yes it was demoralizing but I am a HUGE believer in the notion that it’s very hard to beat a team twice in a row. So go on San Fran, enjoy the blowout, you deserve it, but if we meet again in the playoffs, the burden is on you to beat us twice in a row when we won’t be coming off a bye and recovering from London jet lag oh and with a healthy Cam.

Remember 2013- we go into San Fran and beat them in the regular season, we get them in the playoffs again on our home turf and they come back and own us and make the NFCCG, look at all the times when Pats get beat by some random team in the regular season but they get a playoff rematch (Steelers and Chiefs come to mind in recent years) and win when it counts

The same team that managed to get beaten by the Saints 3 times in one season?

Ron’s teams always struggle adjusting in game vs a team that gets them early 

Ron’s teams historically adjust well when a teams gets them good the next time.  

But we got a long way to go before we can even think about a next time.  If win some games...Seattle likely could be THE game.  They will be competing for a WC spot.

We had them in the postseason....just didn’t finish.  But we had them.  If Funchess didn’t play like he was 5ft tall.  The play was there to knock NO out

Funchess and KB have to be the two tallest 5 foot receivers in history. Smh what a waste

You guys are underestimating the travel miles and the toll it takes on players. Leading up to San Fran we traveled to Arizona, to Houston, to London, a bye then all the way to San Fran, that is about as brutal as it gets. 
 

I think going forward this team will be hella focused and thank god for nomore different time zone games!

    • I feel like this trade just lives rent free in people's heads and keeps morphing into different things. First thing is that the rumored trade was for future firsts. They wouldn't have any extra picks in 2023; the firsts would have been for 2024 and 2025. With very few exceptions, NFL GMs don't value picks that far away. You have to have a lot of job security to pull that off. Like Chiefs, Eagles, Rams kinda stability. That's obviously not the case with David Tepper, especially since he'd just fired his head coach. No GM except for like Howie Roseman is going to trade an asset you have now for a future asset you probably get to use.  Second, at the time you'd have to assume these are first rounders late in the first round. Obviously currency is currency and the panthers need young players, but these weren't slam dunk top ten picks. At the end of the day there's one pick that separates a first and second round pick.  Lastly, the only place that ever reported this trade was the Rams. All the reporters just repeated what McVay said and it became gospel. We have no idea how serious the negotiations were, if they ever really happened, if the offer was real, etc. And I personally believe McVay and Sneed are the kind of guys who would make up rumors like that to fug up other teams, mostly because I assume if I've thought of it someone smarter than me has.  I don't know how you'd call it the greatest draft haul of all time. Firsts quickly lose their value the farther out they are and Burns had 16.5 sacks last season. And anyway those picks would probably just been tossed into the burning inferno of the Bryce trade up so it's a moot point anyway.
