49ers versus Vikings

[deep9er]

Ok, tough call on this game.

The 49ers appear to get Ford and Greenlaw back, and are at home. No major injuries have been added to IR.

The Vikings have issues on the D-line and the 49ers intend to run.

The 49ers win in a low socring game...........49ers 20, Vikings 17

Sounds about right

Man I hope so. With Saints losing tonight and Niners over Vikings. That moves us to the 6 seed and own tiebreaker over Vikes, Eagles and Panthers. Kinda big game on Sunday.

Carolina?

Minnesota is just one of the 'many' games we need to win, we know the 49ers must continue to win games no matter the opponent. This Viking game is obviously a big step because it doesn't look like they're 'struggling' like New Orleans.

The NFC West games are now just 'games' since we're very likely out of that race. We're mathematically in the West race but not realistically.

I think 5-2 for the remaining games is reasonable granted i'm optimistic, so will a 10-7 record get a Wildcard spot? I think greater than 50% chance it does.

Carolina?

Yes Niners have better conference winning %

The 49ers offense has been excellent in the red zone this year. They’re leading the NFL in red zone touchdown rate this season by converting at a 77.8 percent clip. Part of the reason for this success is quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo’s effectiveness in that area. He’s thrown nine touchdowns and no interceptions. They also have a slew of players who’re effective near the goal line, from tight end George Kittle to wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk and backup QB Trey Lance. Their 77.8 TD rate in the red area is by far their best mark under head coach Kyle Shanahan after being near the bottom of the league in his first three years. Last year they were No. 8, and they’ve improved again this season.


Didn't notice this all season?! Ok great, do score more TD's than Field Goals.

Oh ok

Seems like the Wildcard contenders are the 49ers, Vikings, and Eagles? So two of these three teams will likely fill the 6th and 7th spots. Don't see Dallas nor the Rams falling into this category? Would be nice of course, but don't see it happening.

I shouldn't discount New Orleans and Carolina this early but their QB issues doesn't seem condusive to winning?

How was that PI on Norman? He turned his head to find the ball and made a play on the ball. He saw the ball and batted the ball down. Where was the Interference?

Agree - Was terrible call

Well some how some way we now only 1 game behind the All-PRO-AM's. Hopefully we can handle our business against a floundering Seahawks team next week and move to 7-5 with 2 very winnable games to follow.

Yeah ok, a low scoring game alright.

The 49ers NEEDED to string together a win streak and they have. At least now there's some reasonable chance of making the play-offs. Three games ago it couldn't have felt worse?!

We obviously want to beat Seattle but sad to think our West games are like other games on the schedule.

Seattle is winnable but not so much Cincinatti. The Bengals aren't that weak and will be an "east coast" game.

 

[Montalban]

Crazy season for the Niners when even a huge victory like this one turns out to be a disaster when we lose Warner and Samuel for multiple games.

No way we win in Seattle without Warner and Samuel.

All teams go thru injuries, we're fortunate these two aren't long term.

This isn't the first time a team won but lost good starters doing it. No tears!

haaa, you've reverted back to your pessimistic style. We win 3 games in a row and you change back to negative.

Nothing is guaranteed in the NFL, so we can only see what happens Sunday.

Think we do!!!!

I would agree if the 49ers hadn't thrown away so many games earlier in the season but now each loss is critical and they won't beat Seattle without Warner and Samuel.
