Current forecast is a high of 74 and a very low chance of rain. I'm thinking that chance is because it is January and it is 7 days out. But I'll take warm and clear and a healthy Deebo, please.

Jared Goff is going to clown that 49ers defense. They looked lost as hell for 95% of the game yesterday.

Recency bias is wild. It’s a different team. It’s a different game and different day. Niners may be as bad or they may also be much better. We won’t know until they take the field.

Lamar Jackson is the MVP because Purdy had one bad game even though he was much better through the rest of the year and Lamar wasn't even top 3 in his conference.

I would've rather the 49ers played the Bucs because I had no fear of them, but if the 49ers lose to the Lions I wouldn't mind seeing them in the Super Bowl

The statistics back this up, both traditional and analytical. My point was that until the one actual bad game against Baltimore, he was the MVP favorite. The recency bias in the NFL is kind of insane now. It wasn't this bad 10 years ago. But now it's week to week.

Lamar was not the best QB in the AFC, let alone the NFL this year. The stats don't lie. Your comment is just subscribing to the recency bias narrative. By that metric, Jordan Love was the MVP because he was just a tad behind Purdy the 2nd half of the year. Oh, oops, even then Purdy was still the best in the league.

Oh, oops, even then Purdy was still the best in the league. Purdy absolutely had an MVP quality season and was the best passer in the NFL for the majority of the season, and anyone who says otherwise is being deliberately obtuse. Lamar, though, was taking over entire football games by mid season, and he kept it up without faltering (and Purdy did not). Credit to him and he deserves the award, because the QB position is not just about passing. King Hong Kong posted:lol at the idea that the MVP voters watch games instead of buying into narratives.

Oh, oops, even then Purdy was still the best in the league. You are hilariously Purdypilled, but I respect the dedication to posting. When Jimmy G was with Shanahan he generally had elite league ~production~ in key areas. Here are the seasons where Jimmy played more than 10 games; 2019, 2021, 2022.
Then Jimmy goes to LV in 2023 where, in the limited games he played, his completion percentage and y/a dropped to approximately 16th and 16th. His YAC/completion would be around 29th. Because Jimmy G loving sucks. Everyone who watched Jimmy G, with the niners and after the niners, recognized he sucks. But Shanahan and the surrounding offense created an environment where production thrives. People aren’t blown away by Purdy because we’ve already seen elite niners offensive production, even when the niners had a bad QB and no CMC. Now it is without question that Brock is a substantively better quarterback than Jimmy G. The fact that Brock has a decent appetite for, and decent success with, throwing deep alone makes him better than Jimmy G. But that doesn’t mean Brock is the most valuable player in the league. I’m not even a Purdy hater, I’m a Shanahan, Deebo, Trent Williams, Kittle, and CMC appreciator. It is weird as heck that niners fans ITT are diminishing the extraordinary coaching and surrounding offensive talent. P.S. CMC is really good and should have been MVP of our hearts. Lamar is absolutely MVP of the league.

I’m just suggesting that actually watching games, not in any deep or analytical fashion, but just sitting down and watching the games and enjoying the play instead of getting consumed with EPA and QBR and success rate and a bunch of other things is a very good way to understand how Lamar is the runaway favorite.
