The San Francisco 49ers entered Week 8 as the top team in the NFC West, but their loss to the Houston Texans dropped them into wild card position and barely hanging on to that. It wasn’t that long ago that San Francisco was the top team in the NFC. The Seattle Seahawks and Los Angeles […]
Without even setting foot on the field in Week 8, the Seattle Seahawks have moved into first place in the NFC West. As the end of October quickly approached, a three-team logjam formed atop the NFC West. The Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams all entered Week 8 at 5-2, though the Niners […]
The San Francisco 49ers dropped their third game of the season on Sunday, falling short 26-15 on the road to the Houston Texans in a rough game on both sides of the ball. It was a really slow start for the 49ers, who trailed 16-0 to open the game before attempting a comeback. They got […]
The Texans, hot off an extremely disappointing loss to the Seattle Seahawks, come back to Houston to host the San Francisco 49ers in another tilt against a difficult NFC West opponent that could decide the Texans season. This is the first home game for the Texans since their victory over the Titans, and they’re desperate […]
The San Jose Sharks have a chance to salvage some semblance of success on this road trip with a win this afternoon in Minnesota. After finding their game in New York, doing a bit of team bonding and getting the first win of the season, the Sharks wrap up the four game road trip with a visit to the Minnesota Wild. A win would finish the road trip with a .500 record and set the Sharks on a better path as the team returns home for a spell. The Wild are also flailing to start the season with ...
The Houston Texans ran the most plays (16) and took the most time off the clock (9:39) on their opening drive against the San Francisco 49ers. Houston became the first team to score on its opening drive against the 49ers this season. After all of those plays, the Texans only managed a field goal to […]
It’s Sunday, and you know what that means — it’s time for our weekly social media roundup! With the baseball season in the rearview mirror, New York sports fans turn towards football, and with the Giants and Jets being, well, the Giants and Jets, they immediately turn their eyes to the Knicks and Rangers at Madison […]
In absolutely terrible news, the Falcons announced on Sunday with the release of the inactive players list that LB Divine Deablo has been placed on injured reserve with the forearm injury he suffered in Atlanta’s Week 7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. That loss was frustrating, but for me, the most upsetting part was […]
The San Francisco 49ers will look to begin their second winning streak of the season. After winning the first three games of the season, San Francisco has rotated wins and losses since Week 4. Coincidentally, that was also the last time we saw Brock Purdy. If recent history tells us anything, this might be a […]
It’s nearly time. Kirk Cousins is under center, the Atlanta Falcons are seeking their fourth win at home, and the shaky Miami Dolphins are coming to town. The Falcons need to rebound from that ugly 49ers loss with some urgency, because as hapless as the Dolphins are, the Falcons have yet to beat the rap […]

The San Francisco 49ers are taking on the Houston Texans in Week 8, looking to improve to 6-2 and potentially be the top team in the NFC. It’ll be another injury-riddled week for the 49ers, who will be without quarterback Brock Purdy and wide receiver Ricky Pearsall once again, while cornerback Deommodore Lenoir is questionable. […]
Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends, we’re so glad you could attend, come inside, come inside. My apologies to Emerson, Lake, and Palmer but it feels like a week where we have to go on because we have to go on. Both the Texans, and us Texans fans. Last week was […]
The 49ers drafted Mykel Williams 11th overall with the expectation that — while he had work to do to improve as a pass rusher — he would instantly improve their run defense. Williams might not be immediately jumping off the screen week on week but, as the 49ers head into their Week 8 meeting with […]
This most consistent thing about this Falcons team is that you can count on them to always be inconsistent. Following one of the most impressive wins you can get on Monday Night Football against the Buffalo Bills, their mistake-riddled performance against the completely banged up San Francisco 49ers on Sunday Night Football saw them drop […]

In 1988, the Los Angeles Dodgers played the Oakland A’s in the World Series. The Dodgers were the underdogs for most of the playoffs, a task made tougher by injuries to star outfielder Kirk Gibson, who had both a left hamstring injury and a swollen right knee. He didn’t play at all in Game 1 […]
Texans offer enticing matchup for 49ers’ ailing defense: ‘You definitely see opportunities’ (paywall) “It could help that the 49ers will meet an offensive line with the NFL’s 22nd-best pass-blocking grade, according to Pro Football Focus. “You definitely see opportunities,” 49ers defensive lineman Mykel Williams said. “But you’ve also got to create your own opportunities.” As […]
Saying the Houston Texans have been a mess on offense would be an understatement. It feels like the coaching staff is getting worse as the weeks go on, and while it might not be something that gets fixed overnight, the Texans still have some talent on the roster to get things moving in the right […]
Once upon a time, we believed things were improving for the Houston Texans. Last Monday changed that for a lot of Texans fans. I know I speak for myself when I say that the prospects for this team have taken a significant downward turn. But the season rolls on and some of us still want […]
On Monday the Seattle Seahawks defeated the Houston Texans 27-19 at Lumen Field to keep pace with the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams in the NFC West ahead of having Week 8 off thanks to the bye week. However, while the Seahawks won’t be on the field during Week 8, they are in […]
The Portland Trail Blazers’ bench is completely different when Matisse Thybulle plays. What we saw from him yesterday in the Blazers’ 20-point win over a tired, but still formidable Golden State Warriors team was a masterclass in defensive disruption, and his near-team-high +22 in just 15 minutes didn’t feel aberrational or misleading. On the latest […]
