Trent Williams a big factor in that skid.

Well no shit, important players being injured does suck. 49ers however are loaded all over the place, so I'm not sure one or two players being out that are not QBs are really causing that many losses.

Missing a good OL tends to lead to a looot of sacks and pressure throws, esp if the backup is god awful. Having a turnstyle that is chaz green instead of tyron smith is why Dak got sacked 6 times in 1 game a few years ago.

Hell, Bengals missing their key longsnapper is why they lost some games too, because shit kept getting messed up.

What?

Atm they’ve both lost to the niners and each other, the cowboys have it atm because they have 1 more division win because eagles still have 2 vs the giants left. The third eagles loss was to the jets outside the conference while the cowboys lost to the cardinals, so both in terms of conference w/l and SoS I’d think eagles win.

Doesn't matter anyway, don't see the Eagles winning everything now .

yeah, i think the playbook to beat them has been shown to everyone. Their secondary sucks, and getting pressure on Hurts leads to a lot of mistakes.

I mean this is just a plain out bad argument. The 49ers OL is not loaded, they have Williams and Banks and both where banged up over the bad stretch. Both play on the left side, most of CMCs production comes on the left side. Right side of the OL is sketch city. Trent Williams is the most important player on the 49ers besides Purdy, and possibly even more so than Purdy. It's not like losing Deebo for a few games and you still have Aiyuk and Kittle situation.

But let me help you out by pointing the argument in a different direction, the offensive struggles make sense over the losing streak. The defensive struggles did not. Wilks called terrible games against the Vikings and Bengals and ain't no way the 49ers defense should of gotten carved up by them even before the Young trade.

Herbert might be done for the season. That's the 9th? AFC team on their backup lower QB right now.

MVP ain't gonna look like shit due to 1 or 2 players being out.

If they win out, they have the tiebreaker due to us losing to the Cardinals. Which is why I need Devito to pull a miracle. Or the Cardnials, but i think the Giants may actually be more doable lol

Cardinals are playing better lately and the Eagles are playing bad enough to lose to them. Or maybe the Seahawks if Geno can wake back up.

Wow the opening for this Packers-Giants game sucks.

[Vetali]

Tua out there throwing hospital balls to his receivers.

[draynay]

Watching the Manningcast and seeing both games at once let's me see twice the number of errant throws.

[Vetali]

Hip drop tackles gonna be another talking point in the rules next offseason.

Manningcast bringing in Taylor Lewan? That gets a Jamal Adams yikes from me.

[ProphetFlume]

This game is like a game you’d write at the end of the movie where the protagonist needs the giants to win so he can be with the woman he loves.

Packers need to stop with these end zone rainbows on 3rd down. Big part of why they just keep kicking field goals tonight.

Also just when I was starting to worry Joe Barry might coach himself into keeping his job the defense is imploding again.

[MCMLXXXII]

Titan Turnover Trouble fumble galore.

[ProphetFlume]

I see we’re back to not knowing what a catch is, or a fumble for that matter.

I don't see how you call that a TD that was punched out while he was getting control.

It was in the end zone. Control and 2 feet, doesn’t matter if it’s for .001 seconds.

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

Well ends up not mattering they get the TD next play.

Giants need a FG to win, 1:33 to do it.

Knowing the Packers defense tonight, they're losing.

[MCMLXXXII]

Lol Packers D

[Slowpoke is a Gamer]

Shades of every other season for the Packers these last 12 years.

Once again defense is losing them games the offense manages to find ways to win. Fire Joe Barry and sign a real pass rusher.
