Well that doesn’t match what people were seeing on Sunday based on comments here??? Reading here you’d think he was straight trash in pass blocking???

I thought he did well but didn't say anything based on the comments on here. I just thought maybe I had too many & missed him screwing up lol.

So many raiders fans at chargers MNF, first time I’ve seen that many visitors since SDS, don’t take anything for granted, I lost ,y voice several times, but was never heard!
before many Cardinal players were born.

like we use to play in the NFCE dudes and dudettes, haha

no great insights, except they always play us tough, divisional game. Would like to see us run better early, hang on to the damn ball, turnovers can kill a Cardinal, even a megawatt Cardinal.

I'll be surprised if he plays and if he does if he can play the whole game. We've seen QB's with broken legs do it against us but a calf injury there's not much they can do but give him a painkiller. taping a calf doesn't work the way it does with an ankle.

My guess is he'll try to play but if he does, he won't make it through the game.
lol....didnt Donovan McNabb run for three touchdowns against us with a broken ankle one time??.... I seem to remember something like that, they found out the ankle was broken after the game.

On paper all you have to do to stop this Niners is double Deebo and be Stout vs the run.

If Lance is playing and we can pressure him it should be straight forward if we play to our current level.
Don't be Stout against the run! I'm still recovering from a broken leg and, besides, am not in football shape :D

Road teams are 33-31 this season, continuing the disappearance of home-field advantage

Home-field advantage no longer exists in the NFL.

Road teams have a winning record this season, going 33-31 through four weeks.

And that’s no mere blip. Last year, for the first time in NFL history, home teams had a losing record: Of the 256 games in the 2020 regular season, home teams won 127, lost 128, and one was tied. And in 2019, home teams went just 132-123-1, which was the worst cumulative record for home teams since the advent of the 16-game schedule — until home teams did even worse in 2020 and are now on pace to do worse still in 2021.

Gamblers and sports books were among the first to notice the decline in home-field advantage. For decades, the rule of thumb was that home-field advantage was worth about three points on the Vegas line. In the last couple years, that shifted to two points. It’s now around one point.

NFL teams seem to be getting better at silent counts to negate crowd noise, and better at finding ways to travel comfortably and achieve peak performance whether they’re at home or on the road. In today’s NFL, there’s no real difference to playing at home.

He got thrown on the ground at least once and beat off the edge multiple times.

True. But the tendency of fans is to focus on two bad plays and then declare the player played like garbage.

Again, that was Leonard Floyd and he had no help the majority of pass plays. Floyd is going t vvto get his, no matter who he plays against. I actually think he is underrated due to Donald being on the same line.

Now,; how about the job Pugh and Hudson did against Donald?
