Seahawks O and D lines are much improved. Their new linebackers are probably better than Wagner and Brooks. I believe Howell will be a better backup qb. With new kickoff rules, it will be interesting to see how the special teams perform on all NFL teams.

[@msqtokila1523]

Thank you Crock. Cause man I took a pause when he said Matt Stafford better. There was a time. But I just don't feel that way anyy

[@msqtokila1523]

Anymore**

[@travesotom6890]

Stafford is better than Purdy, Greg Cosell just recently said Stafford is the best quarterback in the NFC 😎

[@chrispritchard6005]

Not sold Seattle will just start airing it out. McDonald is another defensive coach so mindset of run the ball a lot should still be there. Hell Kyle is an offensive guy but his offense won't even work without a run game

[@brianday67]

The NFC West is one of the strongest divisions in the NFL. Perhaps the AFC West is the other division. There could potentially be three teams from the NFC West that could make the playoffs.

[@jimfips]

Oh Crocky. Your take on K1 is so out of date (Call of Duty/film study/hero ball). He is all in with this new regime, new scheme and has some real ballers around him now. Brian is seeing it. You're going to be surprised Crock.

[@KingJ_100]

I think ppl count on the rams to not be healthy and try to use it as an excuse of a lack of successful team

[@travesotom6890]

Exactly, they always say if so and so stay healthy when that’s a generic statement that fits every team 😎

[@davidareeves850]

Did you say teatiring! Good luck you have a bang average QB, at best. Keep talking after next year you guys will be propping up the devitoi

[@billmanzara6044]

Palmer went to the SB in Cinn

[@billmanzara6044]

Correction ACF champ game, tore his ACL i think

[@richardmanuzzi]

Did he say the Jaxon smith n was the best wr in last years class😭😭😭 when they had a puka break the rookie record in the game against them 🤣

[@travesotom6890]

Yeah he’s clueless and said Seahawks have a better team than the Rams, dude is a joke 😂

[@TOdoubledizzle24]

I think the only true threat to the 49ers is injuries at Quarterback, Running Back or Left tackle. Other than that, the should win the NFC West!!

[@billmanzara6044]

Stafford is a statue, behind our line he would never be 100% healthy.

[@be-guiltless]

I'm a Ram fan but I appreciate the analysis from Brian n Eric - good stuff from guys who just love the game and their team. When my son was much younger Rice and da Niners was doing their thing so he wanted to be a Niner fan - we all got to make our own choices. Stafford's best days are behind him - but he ain't out, so obviously Purdy with youth and numbers - well you all hit niner gold. But I will take a healthy Stafford this year and the next all day long - my boy is a slinger and still got it. Gonna be close this season, probably gonna split the match-ups - all gonna depend on who's healthy and hot at the end. Go Rams!!!!!

2nd best roster behind 49ers is the Rams

[@divinecomedy7311]

lolololololololollololololololol

[@travesotom6890]

The Peacock guy is a absolute joke, he doesn’t know football saying the Rams have a makeshift offensive line, he clearly doesn’t know the Rams roster, they have the best offensive line in the NFC west and probably the 3rd best in the NFC 😆

[@LockedOn49ers]

🙄 Feel free to drop any objective analysis to back this up

[@travesotom6890]

@@LockedOn49ersWell first of all he said the Seahawks are better than the Rams and they’re NOT and he doesn’t know what players the Rams have on the offensive line, they completely upgraded their line, they resigned Dotson at RG and signed Jackson at LG and moved Avila to center so overall this is a top 10 offensive line in the NFL and easily the best in the NFC West and we have Stafford who’s the best quarterback in the NFC. The WRs are set with Nacua and Kupp, the RBs with Kyren Williams and Blake Corum are top 5. The offense should be able to score at least 30 points per game and the defense will be decent even though everyone thinks just because AD retired the Rams defense is going to fall off a cliff and it’s not. The Rams upgraded the secondary and drafted two stud defensive players in Verse and Fiske, so I think they will do alot better than you think, I see at least 11-6 record this year 😆😎

[@KingJ_100]

White boy analysis of other teams is horrible sound bias

[@travesotom6890]

Exactly, he thinks the Seahawks are better than the Rams 😆

[@divinecomedy7311]

@@travesotom6890 that just makes him smart without AD the Rams are toast

[@travesotom6890]

@@divinecomedy7311Rams are not toast AD was in decline last year THAT is why he retired this year because he knows and did nothing in the playoffs against the Lions, he had 2 tackles, the Rams have upgraded the total defense minus AD , the defense should be middle of the road and the dude talking about the Rams doesn’t know 💩
