😂😂he's giving them nothing

We have to give Arteta the benefit of the doubt here. The last time they played Villa, they clearly needed Gyokeres and with Villa starting Lindelof, it's not the worst idea to play him.
He is very isolated though

These ranking are kinda wocky😂😂
You can't have the 9ers ahead of the Broncos and you can't have the Rams and 9ers ahead of the Bears.

Rams are placed high at 6. The losses to Atlanta and Carolina have not been weighed in enough, Not to mention the ones against the 9ers, Seahawks and Eagles were late game and OT
December 30, 2025 at 8:38 PM
I think the issue with the Bills is thier losses came to non-playoff teams like Atlanta, Miami. The other losses like New England, Houston and Philly are more understandable

Rooting for the Panthers and Ravens to make the playoffs.
I think the Panthers can upset the 9ers in the wildcard with their running game

Stafford is hyped up a lot as an MVP candidate but he's had a bunch of game losing plays this year and I don't think he is anywhere close to top 5.
Do you realize he's 0-3 against Jalen Hurts? Like Hurts regularly out duels him and Stafford has had good defenses

It feels like Premier league schedule makers just wanting a big fixture before that Dec 30-Jan 1 break. Villa vs Arsenal is a legit big game and more so this year than any other but that is coincidence.
This game would be later in the season if they were scheduling on the fly

Not only did they break the Rams, they exposed a pattern.
The loss to the Eagles, then to the 49ers in OT in week 5, The Rams have issues late in games

the latter is the more likely option at this rate, but you never know

I'm way more worried about Seattle than I am the Rams and the 9ers.
December 30, 2025 at 5:44 AM
Yip. First was Carolina, then Seattle. It's been a spiral since.
December 30, 2025 at 5:42 AM
But the Rams have been shaky really since the loss to Carolina. Losing to 2 NFC South teams as a 1 or 2 seed bruh?
ANYBODY can beat the Rams in the playoffs
December 30, 2025 at 5:40 AM
I wasn't tooi happy with Mbokazi's defending on this one tbh
December 30, 2025 at 5:30 AM
Okay, so here's Shanahan himself And there's the fact that Kyle wanted Mac all along and the fact that he and the 9ers did not plan for Purdy to be QB1.
Yeah bro. its not just a narrative, I can show you 9ers insiders talking about Kyle roasting Purdy after a loss

Thats your opinion. 2 months ago the media were legit questioning it. Not me saying so, it's what happened

I'm starting to think Sirianni has 9 lives or something cos this is crazy

What is the ceiling for a team with an offense that stalls in phases of the game but still has the defense to keep oppositions from scoring?
Note the losses against the Cowboys, Bears and Chargers, too.

Eagles offense in the second half:

◽️ 0 points
◽️ 0 completions
◽️ 16 total yards

Still won the game 😅

9er fans should realize Brock Purdy's biggest hater is his head coach. The Mac Jones quarterback competition exists because Kyles wanted it to exist.
Don't point at us, it's your coach that doesn't rate Purdy.

😂😂😂😂

Isn't that supposed to be a tech?
I really think Draymond is testing how much the Warriors need him and a lot of the antics on the court are because he feels he has a lot of leverage at this point. The Warriors should move him.
