Rooke DL Mykel Williams is OUT FOR THE SEASON with a torn ACL. Should Lynch make a trade and what should he offer? I would not offer anything more than a 3rd for a 1 year rental. I think I might just ride the horse I got and see how far it takes me.

Game Day Week 9: 49ers vs. Giants

The New York Giants' run defense is ranked 30th in the NFL, allowing an average of 148.9 rushing yards per game. Dart is 2-0 at home and has been very effective in the 1st quarter and has yet to turn the ball over. The 49ers have only one interception through Week 8 and only seven takeaways in total on the season. Their pass rush has been MIA, with a low-volume 3.32 percent sack rate, as they’ve allowed 229.3 passing yards per contest and a 67.41 percent completion rate to opposing quarterbacks. Dart will challenge this secondary with his off schedule ability and rushing capability. I expect we'll see a similar game plan to the one against Atlanta from Shanahan feeding CMC. If they can have success doing that and avoid turning the ball over, mixed with an explosive play or two I think they win this game 20-17. Go Niners!

To Trade Or Not To Trade

Is now the time? Who are you targeting and what are the costs? These are the questions. Let's hear your answers...

Game Day Week 8: 49ers vs. Texans

C.J. Stroud in 2 starts against Robert Saleh: 2023: 10-of-23, 91 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs 2024: 11-of-30, 191 yards, 0 TDs, 0 INTs

If Stroud cannot be efficient and sustain drives to protect his defense they're going to wear down coming off a Monday Night game.

49ers D-line rankings: Pass-rush win rate: 32% (#26) Run-stop win rate: 32% (#8) Improved from #29 to #8 EPA against the run. Not too shabby.

49ers O-line rankings:

Pass-block win rate: 61% (#20) Run-block win rate: 69% (#28)

Shanahan is 2-0 against the Texans. He'll be going against the top defense in the league who has shown some susceptibility against the run. SF leads the league in offensive 3rd-down conversion rate. Christian McCaffrey leads the league in yards after catch - more than 100 yards ahead of the next player. Can the 49ers continue to defy the odds and win in Houston? They can but they'll need to play a nearly perfect game offensively, and capitalize on Houston's missed tackle rate which ranks 31st this season, missing 44 tackles on the season. Niners get that YAC and Eddie hits the game winner 20-17!

Game Day Week 7: Falcons vs. 49ers

 

Michael Penix might be exactly what the San Francisco 49ers need to finally get their first interception of the year. He has the highest bad-throw percentage in the NFL despite facing pressure at the lowest rate. Threw a pick 6 against the Panthers.

The Falcons defense might be exactly what the San Francisco 49ers need to finally get their run game rolling. Ranked 20th against the run, the Falcons defensive strength is in their secondary ranking 5th against the pass. Mac Jones when blitzed last week at Tampa: 8-14, 5.6 YPA, 2 INT, 3 sacks, 33.3 rating. That's gotta change and it starts with Kittle's return to the lineup as their 6th offensive lineman. The Falcons DC, Jeff Ulbrich has blitzed more than Brian Flores and leads the league in blitz rate at a whopping 40%. Last week against the Bills he blitzed at 56%. The 49ers win this game 27-20!
