We beat Atlanta + SEA loss + SF win will give the niners the NFC west title. That will make Seattle, SF and Carolina all 12-4. Seattle will go from being #1 seed all season to a wildcard team on the last day of the season. Since we hold the tie breaker against the niners, hello home-field throughout baby! It's gonna be a dramatic season finale

It won't happen but it's quite possible. St. Louis gives Seattle bad fits but San Francisco has to play in Arizona (a tall task with that defense).

Likely scenario? We take The Falcons, The Seahawks beat The Rams and The 49ers survive The Cardinals.

More likely scenario. Still heart wrenching though.   We win, Seahawks lose, 49ers lose.

We need Cards to lose though, niners to win if we want that number 1 spot plus seattle loss

 

Brings up the dilemma. Do you want the #1 seed or a #2 seed with the added satisfaction of the aints collapse in the last 2 weeks of the season. I'll take the #1 seed, but I'm not really worried about playing on the road with our D....I just love the idea that aints going from #2 seed to out of the playoffs in 2 weeks

      NFC South is now ACTIVATED

      By Tr3ach · Posted

      There are several posters that only post negative at all times.   8 wins is a big jump from 5 and we still have 2 games.  Jaguars have a much more talented roster than us and have underachieved for years.

      Todd Bowles is losing his locker room… Canales meanwhile

      By amcoolio · Posted

      All of this noise is just setting us up to lose Week 18 and proclaim life's not fair. If there's one thing I know in my 30+ years of watching the Hornets and Panthers, is that the bad guy always wins in the end. A team can be falling apart internally but we will still lose to them. A team's fanbase can be extra shitty and cocky and they will just win anyway. It always happens

      shough vs tmac off rookie of the year

      By MasterAwesome · Posted

      Well even if we took diverging paths getting there...our overall assessment of Shough is the same (bolded) lol so I guess that's what matters.  What you call "playing at a level that looks like a veteran starter" is the same thing I'm referencing when I talk about his poise.  Although I still wonder how truly "bad" of a team the Saints are.  Their defense is middle-of-the-road, and their offense does have some good pieces (Olave, Juwan Johnson) outside of running back which is the position most everyone agrees is relatively plug-and-play.  I'm not going to pretend to know anything about the majority of NFL team's o-lines lol but I'm assuming Saints are not great there, although Shough's pressure % seems to have been quite low (and steadily improving) over the last four weeks (20 -> 16.7 -> 15.0 -> 13.0) so maybe they've been playing better as of late, or perhaps Shough himself deserves credit for that.   Some of the language I'm hearing about Shough, including talking about how he's way above league average in several categories, makes it sound like Shough is having a rookie season on par with like a CJ Stroud who established himself as basically a Top 5-10 QB his rookie season.  Maybe that's on me though, I don't mean to attribute anything to you that I'm sure you don't agree with.
