Time to take stock of this season and try to fill half that glass

Will we keep them?

Not sure the question you are asking?
It is the current projection, but nothing is official.

What we know is that Dallas did in fact once again lose more free agents than they signed during the period that is counted.
Now a days you "can" trade these picks so that could happen as well.

Sometimes there’s just teams we don’t matchup well against. Their strengths expose our weaknesses. I’m not sure any other team in NFC imposes as many mis matchups than SF.

Any fan who separate their emotions to analyze which make up these matchups are more apt to see it more clearly.

The good news is despite these factors we were able to still play a competitive game and it came down to a one possession or one score game.

So , in the end we can dissect a few key plays and possessions which ultimately determined the outcome instead of total dominance.

And as poorly as our QB performed and offense produced we still had a shot to win. But it’s these matchups which led to our poor performances not just certain players stinking it up. Opponents often deserve as much credit as our teams deserves blame.

It's also about a myriad of other factors.

SF was playing at home off extra rest while Dallas travelled from one coast to the other on a short week.
SF being more physically dominant in the 2nd half wasn't exactly surprising.

Anyone who has ever done any real NFL gambling will tell you avoid teams that travel 2 or more time zones between games.

In the end SF was a better team and we lost, end of story.
But there are tons of factors beyond simply match ups.
SF's guys made the big plays when it mattered. Dallas' did not.

#1 offense over the past 12 weeks facing the #1 D and you’re gonna tell me they dont matchup. It’s actually comical while you have no answer at all for last years choke job. If this team wasn’t good enough now while sitting at or near the top on both sides of the ball and facing a rookie QB. then you’re waiting on something that’s never gonna happen. And the QB sucked this year and last. I’m sure that will be different next time!

Traditionally #1 defenses rule. Yes, it was a poor match up . The details were widely presented leading up to game. You didn’t know?

No doubt our QB didn’t perform well. But why is that? What were the contributing factors.

Is it because we couldn't get our running game going cause SF stuffed it? And then we lost Pollard.

History would tell us Dak and our offense have struggled against top defenses without establishing a rushing attack. All part of why it wasn’t a good matchup for us.

Although our season is over there is one game left to possibly take some positivity from

if the Niners beat the Eagles like a red headed stepchild and it’s by a wide margin, perhaps we can draw some good conclusions from our performance vs the Niners……but if the Eagles beat the niners by a wide margin………not going there in a positive thread

I really did try to finds a good sign in our loss if the Niners spanked the Eagle, but alas, we now know the team that beat us got SHREDDED by the Eagle which makes us suck even more

i really did try though….
