jonnguy2015 Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Even if/when Lane comes back for the Eagles, he almost certainly won't be at 100%. We saw firsthand last year what tends to happen when your QB and star OT are playing hurt. Do agree that the Eagles should be favored in a hypothetical NFCCG, but it shouldn't be by much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
49ersfan Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I see its supposed to rain on Saturday and projected to be a high of 57 degrees with winds of 12mph. Not sure how much rain exactly We saw firsthand that bad weather is an equalizer. Hope this doesn't make the game closer on Saturday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ward did not shy away and DK was extremely frustrated. Ward has the size, length, strength and ball skills to match up with him. Crazy this man was a UDFA Lenior will matchup fine with Lockett or whoever else they have. His coverage is good. He has not seemed to fold, and it appears that he has not lost confidence in himself. He has always been a confident guy. I expect Elijah to be heavily involved this week. They are weak up the middle, their LBs are bad at run fitting. We are a nightmare matchup for them. Are the Niners playing more zone or man in the secondary? I always thought the played more zone to hide the coverage issues in the back end.

TecmoSuperJoe Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I think this is will be the highest playoff point spread between the 49ers and their opponent since the 49ers played the Vikings in the 1997 divisional round where they were 11.5 point favorites. 49ers won that game 38-22. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope this doesn't make the game closer on Saturday The rain and the wet field is going to be one of the keys in this match up for sure. Luckily for us, Mitchell is back so if the conditions are bad, we have someone else we can go to if CMC can't get it going. Shouldn't be TOO bad though, I think only a quarter of inch of rain is being predicted during the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember the Niners were like 20 point favs in the 1994 SB against the Chargers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is Kemp’s 5th postseason assignment; all 5 have been Wild Card Playoff games. He reffed our 49ers-Cowboys playoff game last year FWIW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gridirongorilla Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 The part of this game that bothers me the most is the Hawks made the playoffs but they also have the 5th pick in the draft. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah darn, really wanted to see what he had, but then again the playoffs are not the place to start learning how to play the position in the NFL. something else to look forward to next year I guess 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they definitely have a bright future and start to a rebuild. 2 young corners, 2 bookend tackles, and an emerging rb - all rookies. That’s crazy potential. I liked both Coby and Tariq as a possible corner selection in the draft, but to actually get that level of play out of them.

The Seahawks also have 2 good edge pass rushers who had just below double digit sacks this year. I hope Trent Williams & Mike Mcglinchy are up to the task this weekend.
