(+) Yeah! (+)

ya go my Titans

I expected more people to be on the Titans.

Fallen off that much I guess.

The Titans almost lock themselves into the playoffs with a win this week or next week.

It's hard to feel confident picking them considering all their injuries and SF feels like they're getting hot at the right time

Leon is brown good to go my fantasy life depends on it

He's going to be activated off of IR but they won't make the call as to whether he will actually play until a few hours before kickoff. It sounds like it's leaning toward yes though.

Looks like the Saints might have to start rookie Ian Book at QB after Hill and Siemian both landed on the Covid list.

Is Ron Rivera OK? Considering he coached against a team whose coach immediately came down with the vid following the game.

I'll take the Dolphins regardless of who QBs the Saints!

I expect the Saints D to fluster Tua regardless of who plays QB

A.J. Brown is in the starting lineup for the Titans

This is going to be interesting.

The "Other League" has 0 people on the Titans.

The normal league only has 10, but it includes 3 of the 5 people tied for 11th.

There is no one within 3 games of the tie for 11th in either direction of the Titans.

What about me

You're in the main league anyways.

That drive was too easy. They didn't even have to convert a third down.

Titans need to shore up quick.

Yeah, that was not encouraging.

why did you even attempt to complete the pass at that point

Converting that was encouraging though!

gotta love the third and 15 draw play

However 6 plays for 7 yards and a punt is less encouraging.

I do feel like this game could get kinda ugly though.

49ers seem to finally have it figured out and Titans are coming apart at the seams. They're not a playoff caliber team right now.

so there was an obvious hold on the 49ers and instead they call a facemask on the Titans for grabbing the receiver's shoulder pads while being held

this isn't going to be our night is it

Well Jimmy G decided he doesn't want to win yet.

whew that was a huge interception for us

this game felt like it could've gotten out of hand quickly if we gave up two easy TDs

We'll see if that interception slows down the 49ers at all because the Titans offense is doing nothing.

Yeah, the Niners defense is flying to the ball so far, no matter what we do.

49ers stopped themselves there.

This game is going to feel over if it hits 17-0.

Chop Block on a -1 yard run. Impressive.

Converting after that penalty may give them some juice.

Or they follow it up with a brutal failure from 2nd and 1.

Jimmy G tried to gift us another INT but alas we could not catch it

that looked like a fumble on that sack

is Vrabel looking at whether to challenge it? I guess we need to see if there was a clear recovery first

oh yeah we didn't recover it anyway, so nevermind

man the Niners are dying to let us back into this game

we just need to take advantage of it

This is the kind of game the 49ers are just letting Tennessee stay around in with repeated mistakes.

Tennessee almost starts this drive in FG range after a punt.

This is one play away from being an incredibly deflating half for the Titans.

The 49ers and special teams are trying to keep them in it and the defense is just eating them.

Two plays after the two minute warning and the entire feel of the game has changed.

Suddenly getting a TD looks easy for the Titans!

Oh the announcers were wrong it's on the offense nevermind.

well that was a disaster

Orrr they could get even more deflated.

honestly if it's only 10-0 at halftime we should consider ourselves lucky

Yep.

This should be a lot worse and 10-0 is survivable.

It's probably going to be 13-0 at halftime.

17-0 is probably game over, but I don't think they get there.

the good news is that we get the ball first after halftime

the bad news is that we got the rare delay of game on the defense

Or the 49ers could neglect to try with 1 1/2 minutes left.

They really are trying!

Vrabel: "We've got to eliminate dumb penalties and drops on offense"

*Titans start off second half with a false start and a drop*

we keep converting 3rd and longs but it'd be nice to have some 2nd and 3rd and shorts at some point

The 49ers have succeeded in letting the Titans back into the game.

see this is the problem with being in 3rd and long all the time, you're bound to fail eventually

but at least we got some points there

Jimmy G more like Santa C

thanks bud

SF looks like a team that's actively trying to lose.

That was one hell of a gift INT.

K Titans win.

shhhh

Honestly though, this game kind of has been textbook Jimmy G and this is something I shoulda thought about. The moment people wonder if Jimmy G actually is good enough to be a starting QB, he has a game like this and reminds everyone he's not.

Jalen Hurts is the exact same way, and showed it with the massive egg he laid against the Giants.

False start on 4th and 1.

Awful throw by Jimmy G on 4th and 6.

Can we get Trey Lance in or something?

looks like we got Jimmy D- tonight, thankfully
