Commanders vs. Eagles injury report: Treylon Burks questionable
Commanders receiver Treylon Burks was designated as questionable to play Sunday night’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles due to a foot injury. That’s especially notable for Washington’s first game without Terry McLaurin, who suffered a season-ending torn patellar tendon against the 49ers. While Antonio Williams will see an increased snap count and target share, Burks […]
- Setting aside the fact the Colts don't seem intent on moving Taylor ... The case for: The Giants clearly want a true RB1, he's one of the best in the game and this might be their best chance to get a RB of his caliber (the FA market this offseason is really weak). The case against: The cost. It took a second, a third, a fourth and a fifth for the 49ers to land CMC. That would really empty out the Giants' draft arsenal and as promising as this season has been, there are still needs to be filled. · Quoting SNY Giants: Should the Giants make a push to acquire Jonathan Taylor in a trade? @Connor_J_Hughes and @DDuggan21 discuss on NYG411

Of the 49ers' 8 defensive tryouts today, I'm most intrigued by former Jacksonville DB Christian Braswell. 5-11, 181... He has 169 career snaps in coverage with size adaptability to play both slot and outside.
Braswell has allowed just 0.70 yards/cover snap and a 67.3 passer rating into his coverage over his career, both great marks.
If Upton Stout isn't fully healthy yet, the 49ers will need more help at DB and versatility is essentially mandatory for them at the depth spots. Jacksonville recently cut Braswell with an injury designation but he's healthy now

What happens when the money is down late is what ultimately matters — especially in Seattle
- 1d David Lombardi (X) I love how Caleb Williams executed Ben Johnson’s methodical plan on Drive 1. But he’s going to have to hit a true kill shot down the stretch. Missed a great opportunity to Odunze there at the end of the first quarter. What happens when the money is down late is what ultimately matters — especially in Seattle
- NFC West standings… The 49ers are 3.5 loss-column games ahead of the pack and it’s nearly the halfway point. Wow: 49ers: 6-1 Seahawks: 4-4 Rams: 4-4 Cardinals: 3-5
- As you can see, the Seahawks weren’t just a few accidental and avoidable giveaways away from being the class of the NFC
- Maybe that's why the Seahawks were running
- Seattle has struggled against screens this year. Entering the 49ers game, they were #29 in EPA/attempt allowed. Ben Johnson made the most of his extra chance after the delay of game · Quoting Dugar, Michael-Shawn: When you call a screen you hope it’s blocked up as well as this was. Big-time play by Chicago.
- When you call a screen you hope it’s blocked up as well as this was. Big-time play by Chicago.
- Bears are +0.38 EPA on early-down passes which is the way to beat this Seattle defense. Don’t fall into the trap of running against their nickel. Expose it with neutral-down throws when the pass rush can’t pin its ears back
- Seattle offense is #21 DVOA with that great receiver. Hard to do · Quoting Aaron Levine: Not gonna lie, there are times this season where the #Seahawks offense is mind-numbingly boring. And that's saying something, given that they have the best receiver in the NFL.
- JSN is the most obvious double/safety help candidate of all time … the Seahawks are historically reliant on him. The Bears: Single coverage!!

- I’m as high on the Bears as anyone outside of Chicago given their recent investment on defense.

Be serious lol · Quoting BearsShowYo: Starting to feel like the winner of Monday night between the Bears and Seahawks takes the “best team in the NFC” crown
- To maximize rest and recovery, especially on a short week, #Bears will spend the night in Seattle and fly home Tuesday morning. Typically, teams fly out immediately after the game. The club used a similar schedule following Week 17 game at San Francisco (SUN night) last year.
