Not going to be popular here, but I think the Niners win the division and bet on it two weeks ago at 5.5–1
Based on what analysis.. Have you been paying attention to their defense?

SC defense is pure ass.
They played a hell of a lot better defense against us than they did against the Niners.

And that's WITH Buckley/Buckner(whatever the hell his name is) back.

That was a total choke job by their Defense, imo.

9ers have their hands full with the Bears next week. And then us.

I like our chances.

I want SO MUCH for the bears to ruin everything for them next week so that the only thing they can do in Week 18 is try to play spoiler and that's if they decide to even play their starters or not.

Still...giving up 27 points to a team with a 45-year-old QB is not great for them and that pleases me.

It won't be any easier for the Niners next week against Da Bears who actually will play their ass off because one more win will get them a Division title.
Yes their defense is mid at best.

That defense didn’t do anything well. They couldn’t stop a nose bleed. Completely different than what we saw two weeks ago.

I think staying in the 5th wildcard is still advantageous . If they lose to the bears, it will depend on when exactly the rams game is week 18. I think the rams face the cardinals so they should be both playing at the same time and won’t rest their starters

The 5th wildcard gets to face the nfc south which is the weakest team

I just don't think you can overlook the 9ers offense.. they have some weapons.

I must admit, the 9ers have surprised me by their resilience this year. What a pickup with Saleh. At least made their D okay with their losses, and the O has been very good. Very respectable showing this year.

The Rams have the weakest scheduled opponents these next two games : Falcons and Cardinals.

No reason to believe they don't go 2-0 here.

Okay won't cut it, though, without a pass rush.

27 points given up to Grandpa, remember? 🙃

No reason to think the Hawks can't put up over 30 points on that Saleh defense in Week 18

Oh I agree. It’s just in week 18 they play at the same time so even if the 49ers lose to the bears and can’t win the division they won’t rest their starters

So spoiler, it is (if they lose to Chicago).

Either way, it's going to be a fun game. :)

CMC is like 75% of their offense and he is wincing in pain on almost every play... Colts did a terrible job of game planning for him.

The only team to shut him down (all purpose yards )all year was Houston and they debatedly have the best d in the league

And he winces like that all the time. I think he does it when he is tired
