The Trend Ends: The Curse of the Week After Hangover

[Sports Hernia]

Looks like the Turds beat the jinx. Atlanta is rolling over and playing dead, which means that game looks a lot easier in ATL.

All a conspiracy to get SF back to the big game and deny Seattle their rightful trip.

Get lost troll, go back to the webzone where you belong.

It's quite pathetic watching Atlanta. They're making Arizona look like a Superb Owl contender.

Worry not about the Niners. I actually embrace their winning. Last year they beat us out by a miserable 1/2 game. This year, I will be perfectly content finishing with the best record in the NFC, having knocked off the Niners twice and sending them into wildcard hell.....before beating them a 3rd time. In fact, if the math worked, I would have been even happier if we were the only team to beat them. ; )

It's comforting to know how bad Atlanta is because even with all their injuries, I was still worried about that road game. I mean, I still am because it is a road game, but I feel a lot better about it now.

Ditto. If they have nothing to play for it can only help the Hawks.

Accept for the date they have with SF. All good, though. We control our destiny and that's all we could have ever hoped for. I think chances are excellent that we win out, not needing help from anyone.

Both SF and us have the talent to win out. @NO and our rematch will be tough for them, so I expect them to drop at least one.

So the Rams will be on a short week, and will have to face the Titans. Both teams are not very good, so it'll be interesting if the "Hangover Trend" will hit them next week.

I agree about the talent, but I don't see SF beating N.O. in Nawlins. Unsure if we would either. Fortunately, that's not a concern (for us). ; ) I think the Niners lose to both us and Brees. Kaep will be forced to throw the ball in both games. Even with their excellent D, SF will have to pass to keep up with N.O. and SF won't gain 100 yrds on us...so he will have to throw into the strength of our D. I like watching Kaep when he is forced to throw (and the D knows he has to).

This.

Capt. One Read can't carry a team throwing it unless the opponent is Green Bay. That's why Hardouche has gone back to a LOT of Gore and Hunter. He knows it too.

They beat them in N.O. when they played last year. Knocked them out of the playoffs the year before too. It'll definitely be a game and a loss wouldn't surprise me, but I don't see what's so hard to see about the 9ers beating the Saints in N.O. given they did it pretty comfortably (31-21) less than a year ago in Kap's 2nd start in the NFL.

FWIW I'm expecting both the Hawks and 9ers to each lose a game or two none of us are expecting, in addition to the ones we know might be coming for each team. Hard to see the Hawks not winning the division if they win in S.F., though.

NO was a different team last year. They've been dynamic to say the least this year and they can beat anybody in the league if their defense can hold it's own. I think SEA or SF will drop a game to them. Our home winning streak will end at some point, just hope it's not this year.

I actually think SF might beat NO on the road and lose to Carolina at home. Whereas I see us beating SF at Candlestick and possibly losing to NO at home. It's the NFL. Stuff happens.

Maybe when Russell Wilson retires.
