If the panthers are down by 21, do we comeback?

Wilson and Luck will be praised for their comebacks, and even though they were against crappy teams, you gotta give em credit.

Good teams are able to do this, Cam did it vs bama in his heisman/championship year.

Would this team overcome a deficit of that kind of magnitude?

It helps if the opposing kicker can't make 2/3 of his kicks. The last one was a tough one and 55 yards, but the first two should be bunnies for a NFL kicker. Don't forget that the Texans lost their playcaller.

 

The bucs aren't good, and Seahawks underestimated them.

Who said 49ers will score 21 easy points against the no.3 DEFENSE in the league? You know which team in the NFL is allowing the least points to offenses? CAROLINA with only 106 points through 8 games! That's a "13.25" points per game allowed by our nasty defense this season.

 

The real question is: If the 49ers are down by 21, do they comeback?  NO.

Hawks defense isn't as bad ass as ours.

We do have the talent to come back.

But until we're in that situation, we won't know with certainty.

That's why I don't like the "what if" game.

I don't see this team going down 21 points to anyone. So there is a real chance we'll never find out.

Yep, Seahawks completely overlooked them. They all must have taken the week off; not really, but yeah.

 

FTR, I don't ever want to be down that much to find out if we can come back.

      Who will blow it Sunday?

      BPA comes with the caveat of positional value and roster need included. Never let the latter two completely overwhelm the first, however. Our FO seems to lean heavily into "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE POTENTIALZ!!!" as a fourth category and often it seems as the #1 overall pursuit. With as many needs as this roster has, I am not going to get upset over a real roster upgrade at WR versus some reach at EDGE or whatever other extreme needs we have. Overall, I want to see the roster get better. There is far, far, FAR more than one offseason of work left to get this roster into the top 10-12 in the NFL. That should be the goal.

      I would say we are more likely to get smoked by Tampa, blast Seattle and then perplexingly lose to Tampa again.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      In general, Dave Canales tends to target his TE's the least frequently of any position group(WR/RB/TE) during his three years of running an NFL offense.  However, if you notice this percentage has crept up over time. 2025 is the first year that TE has eclipsed RB in target percentage. Production has also gone up in 2025. This is a percentage of total output in each category. Canales has always used a very TE heavy offense. In fact, on average his offensive formations are 2 or 3 TE sets roughly 80% of all offensive formations. So, the question may be, with this uptick in total TE output, could an elite or top tier TE make a significant impact? I believe there is some evidence this may be the case. Here are a look at TE snaps and Cade Otten specifically. These are the snap percentages for all rostered TE's in every Dave Canales offense. The bolded cell is Cade Otten's whopping 96.46% of total snap counts in the single year he was in the Dave Canales offense in Tampa. This was overwhelmingly his career high. His production was higher with less utilization in 2024, however.    In conclusion, while I don't anticipate ever seeing a top 5 producing/Pro Bowl caliber TE performance in a Dave Canales offense, there does appear to be some evidence that an actual upgrade in our TE room would actually lead to increasing overall offensive efficiency. I think Otten's utilization rate does indicate that the splitting of time between our relatively even TE group would cede significant snaps if a far superior option were available. I believe this is an area we could(and should have this past offseason/draft) made a more concerted effort to get a dynamic TE threat, after the apparent failure that J. Sanders appears to have been.
