It feels like 90% of Purdys passes are behind the LOS 

Yup, it's a pretty QB friendly O, throw a bunch of bubble screens to WRs that are good at YAC, throw a bunch of RB screens to McCaffrey who is a great RB when he's not doing that he's throwing short passes over the middle to s great TE who is also good at RAC occasionally when a D creeps up to stop the run which the niners are good at he'll throw down field but most game it's scree screen run run dink dunk etc...

These roughing passes are so stupid, ref isn't going to throw a flag for a defender tackling a RB TE WR to the ground with his body but tackle a QB with your full body weight and it's a flag, as if the DL should be able to tackle a QB with only half his body weight???🤔

Agree. I hate the "full body weight” clause.

They have been really inconsistent with those. I've seen multiple sacks just like that this year that weren't called as they shouldn't be unless it's late. That was weak and basically gave 49ers a TD

Surprised they didn’t make Purdy get checked for a concussion…his head bounced off the turf pretty hard.

If Williams isn't ejected I'm not sure what's going on.

Obvious punch and the refs and commentators are just laughing it off.

If it were an eagle the commentators would be calling for a lifetime ban...😒

I think one of my favorite plays in all of sports is the perfect no doubt about it home run. Everything about it is just music to my ears.

Shanny adjusted after they traded for McCafferty and made it more QB friendly.  Before that they had no identity, play calling made it impossible for the QB to get into a groove.  If McCafferty or Deebo go down, I suspect it will go back to the old bipolar play calling.

Last I checked throwing a punch was an ejectable offense no???

Surprised by both mentioned above. 

Purdys head smacked the ground and neck snapped back but he wasn't removed by the spotter. 

 

Trent Williams throws a punch and gets away with it

Yeah but they still have McCaffrey if McCafferty goes down 😜

Giants OL is terrible.  I know that the Niners have one of the, if not the best DL in the league but wow.

Evan Neal gives me Winston Justice vibes.

Deebo is sneaky strong

Better pedigree than Ricks and Ringo? :huh: 

They were both top 20 HS recruits in the country. They played for the 2 best teams in the country in Georgia and Alabama. One is a two time National Champion, who returned a INT for a TD in the title game. They were both 2nd team All-SEC selections. Other than an All American selection I don’t think there is any greater pedigree a player could possibly have.

As far as Lane Johnson retiring, he just signed a contract extension this offseason through 2026. He’s 33 years old now. He did mention that he thought about playing 2 more seasons in 2022, but these things have a way of being flexible. I’m sure the eagles will communicate with him and have an understanding of where he stands on the issue this coming offseason.

Yes a better pedigree.  As in what they did at college, not how they enter college at 17 or 18.   And despite this long list of accolades you mentioned (most of which were team accomplishments, not individual), one was undrafted, the other went in Round 4.  Not exactly highly coveted pedigree upon entrance to the NFL.

Sauce Gardner, for example, had a much better pedigree coming to the NFL than either of those guys by a wide margin, despite attending Cincinnati.  but, it wouldn't have to be him.  It could be Jaycee Horn, Devon Witherspoon, Christian Gonzalez, or Trent McDuffie.  All of them entered the NFL with a far better pedigree than Ricks or Ringo.  Ricks or Ringo came from Alabama and Georgia, but weren't looked at like these other CBs, and for good reason.  Ringo has a lot of physical tools and is very young.  Hopefully he can put it together.  But, I'll need to see it before I buy it.  It would be great if they work out like it worked out with Mailata, and as we hope it will with Blankenship.  But... there's a lot of questions about Blankenship still, and he's shown way more than either of those two so far.

Wow they really want the 49ers to win

That was weak but he clearly pushed Kittle so 🤷‍♂️

you just can't do it

Freaking Purdy keeps getting bailed out from throwing into double and triple coverage 

This game is rigged 

Lots of calls going niners way and all ticky tack.

Trent Williams throws a punch and just an off setting penalty.

Stupid stuff.

You also can't punch someone in the face and stay in the game but the refs are in the 49ers corner so Williams is still in the game.

Its not about 1 call its about showing clear bias.

Kicking a FG here is so dumb. Even if you can't get the 4 yards, you've got them pinned deep in their own territory and your chances of getting the ball back with good field position are so high.

I don't recall mentioning anything about any other calls, but okay.
