1. Who cares about a choke artist and a perennial frauds, Where is A-A-Ron Rich?

2. Why do people keep saying McCaffrey is coming back? I haven't been paying attention. I honestly expect him to not be back and if he does end up hurt again.

3. Lmao why’s everyone hating so hard

4. This is like 2 years ago. When they traded for CMC, now he’s coming back.

5. The NFC West is this year’s NFC South: football’s weakest division

6. Why aren’t you posting the Jets conversation?😂😂 Would have thought that’s why everyone keeps hitting refresh.

7. The 49ers will need to win their division, to make the playoffs. That is very likely.

8. Too bad the jets don’t have a good system

9. I love how they only focus on CMC returning. There is also Juan Jennings coming back. Dre Greenlaw coming back as well.

10. Kittle is a monster. All respect to Gronk and Kelce, they are legends, but they also had legends throwing them the ball.

11. Come on, folks, I know everybody's baying for blood at this point, but it's a long show, he's got to talk about all the sports stories, and there are far more relevant teams out there. But you'll get your pound of flesh soon enough. So just , in the words of one of America's great intellects, r-e-l-a-x.

12. Rich, you used to lay into the name "Joe Flacco" when he first came into the league. I remember. Check the tape.

13. There is one quarterback who didn't play well in this game. It's the same one who threw two interceptions and is paid 60mil per year

14. greenlaw's absence is massive. campbell and the others arent good enough.

15. SF is done this year. They ain’t going anywhere, is the hangover after the lost SB. Like the Eagles last year.

16. Win is a Win, system or no system who cares at this point. Pundits mean absolutely nothing.

17. Greenlaw injury is when chiefs were able to do anything on offense in superbowl. Also why defedne has not lolked the same. His back up has been beat all year

18. If this 49ers core never wins a superbowl I'm going to be so sad.

19. The Cowboys pay Dak $59 million per year more than Brock Purdy gets. What does that get them? About two more picks per game than Purdy gives them 😂

20. Beating the cowboys by 6 is does not really indicate anything great. Their upcoming schedule is tough and if they don’t get cmc and greenlaw back soon they will miss the playoffs

21. These 49ers, if they can get healthy (the loss of Aiyuk hurts them a lot), has the ability to put away any team in the NFC. The coaching and scheme have been demonstrated time and again, as they can plug guys into the lineup when their All-Pro starters go down, and still win.

    Other than the Lions, I can't see an NFC team that has a clear advantage over SF in terms of coaching, roster and momentum going into the halfway point of the season (maybe it could be argued that the Commanders have the same/similar momentum, but their rookie QB should come back down to Earth at some point this season). Detroit at San Francisco on December 30th is going to settle much over who is playing either the Ravens of Chiefs in the Super Bowl this year.

22. LOL the 49ers almost and probably should have been beaten by what is maybe the worst team in the NFL. If you are reading this you will remember it when they get beaten badly by a playoff team becuz the Cowboys are wretched and really should have beat them but the refs let them pass interfere the entire second half. Im not a fan of either team i just know football.

23. Man there’s still some tough games in this schedule

    But I also knew this division was going to be tight

24. For the first time in a long time

    The NFC Conference is stacked

25. "Average at best" does not describe the 9ers this season. They've been Champions at best, but on average, they've been below average. Weirdest 9er season I've ever watched in terms of consistency, and it's been sad and frustrating.

26. Excuse me, you cannot hate George Kittle, like saying I hate donuts. how , why , it’s just impossible.

27. Crazy theory: This is just a stupid elaborate plan to get the 4th seed and play the Packers again 😂

28. I look for the Rams to give us trouble at the end of the regular season !!!

29. This dude only has mouth that doesn’t follow common sense. Does this come with age? He used to be better than that.

30. 49ers defense is mid. They will be lucky to make the playoffs

31. The Niners should contact the Panthers and get DeForest Buckner.

32. McCaffrey is so important to the offense, that's why they talk about him so much. JJ has become a much more vital part of the passing game with Aiyuk out. Greenlaw's return is key to the defense, but when he returns hasn't been nailed down yet to the best of my knowledge.

33. Rich may be just feeling the heat coming from the west coast and it isn't the Rams (Lambs) and not the birds or for that matter the Hawks…no it is all about the 49ers…and it's just in time. Heat turning to fire…then let's talk about who's who…Rich???? are you listening?

34. Jennings too

35. Kittle is our most reliable player. Never drops the ball. Crazy, positive energy. He’s the best.

    I love his career as a football player but I’m honestly really excited to see what he does after football.

36. 9ers barely beat a horrible Cowboys team. Hardly confidence inspiring. Funny how important CMC is to that offense. Chiefs running backs are an undrafted rookie and Hunt, who was on the couch a month ago. 9ers only got through the NFC last year because the NFC was bad and Dan Campbell is an idiot. Not happening this year. There's no way the 9ers are getting past the Lions, Packers, Eagles, Commanders. Those will be good games to bet, though. Just don't bet 9ers.

37. Niners are finishing 9-8 or 10-7. 11-6 at an absolute push but that would mean 7-2 down the stretch which is very unlikely. Dropped too many games to start the year, its over.

38. 9ers were 3-4 three outta the last four years. Let’s not panic yet.

39. The defense is the biggest issue for the Niners right now
