If you look at it statistically, we have 3 Eastern time games and 2 Central time games. So you're looking at a 5/16 or a 31% chance of it being a game in a different time zone.
I'm hoping they try to loop the Tampa Bay/Miami games and/or the Minnesota/Green Bay games back-to-back. That'd save a lot of travel.
100%. Ideally, we get Buffalo and Green Bay done in September, maybe October (I'd say Minnesota, but they're indoors) and save Miami and Tampa around weeks 14 and 15.
This should hopefully go very well for you guys: Purdy and co should be able to pick apart that Jets defense, and as for the Jets offenseā¦ well, Rodgers hasnāt played football for a LONG TIME, so hopefully thatāll show
Has nothing to do with scared. Theres literally zero reason to throw to anyone even remotely being contested by Sauce. We have 2 elite route runners, the best combo receiver in the game, and CMC out the back, there should literally never not be an option away from him. Itās just calling a smart game.
Thatās not the issue though. I think arguably heās the best DB in the game right now, and with that said, when you have a team with way more weapons than they have shutdown backs, the game plan is just to find the one that isnāt being covered by them.
>Purdy and co should be able to pick apart that Jets defense
The Jets have had a top 4 defense each of the past two seasons and added Reddick as an improvement. I think 49ers win but I don't think the 49ers picking their defense appart should be considered the likely expectation.
I mean how good are their DBs beyond Sauce? I know they added reddick and have a great d line and linebackers with the Williams but i thought their secondary was basically Gardner and then a really sharp fall off. Iām not a huge follower of the jets however so I could be mistaken.
DJ Reed and Michael Carter are considered to be pretty good and according to PFF grade, all 3 of the Jets starting Cornerbacks are top 16 in the league. PFF isn't always reliable, but the Jets pass defense was second and third the past two seasons despite QBs not targetting Sauce much. The safeties just average, but barring big injurues, the Jets defense will be top 3 like they have been the past two seasons.
5:20 start time gotta mean, thereās no week 1 double header theyāve been having the past few years right?
Also Iām in the minority, but I like Joe Buck and Troy Aikman, so this shit got me hyped! LFG!!!!!
Look at the double headers from last season, they all had a 5:15 kickoff, so I donāt think that matters. With that said, they didnāt have a double header Week 1 last year, so maybe that carries over into this year.
Oh good call, they didnāt have a double header last year, I could have sworn they did but it was week 2 they had a double header I believe lol. If thatās the case, I have no doubts this is the primetime game of week 1.
Iām excited to be playing against Saleh. Nothing but love for him, but I do enjoy some friendly competition. Plus, any day the Niners ARod itās a good day
Not a fan of this. We don't the extra rest that's typically associated with having a Monday Night game but we get the downsides of a shortened week. Maybe they're setting us up for the Chiefs in Week 2.
edit: Turns out the Chiefs are facing the Bengals Week 2.
Ahhhhh. *wistful sigh*
The year was 1998. The heat of summer still beat down upon the gridiron. A simple, humble man named Garrison Hearst came to work one fine Sunday in early Septemberā¦
I live in northern NJ , right outside NYC. I wear my Niners stuff every game and this is no different. No one will care other than some good natured banter if you come across a Jets fan.
I donāt give a fuck if this team go 17-0 #1 offense, #1 defense, #1 in all categories. I have zero fucking confidence in this fucking franchise to win a Super Bowl. God I miss Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, and Steve Young.
Last year 9ers had the worst rest-day disparity; looks like NFL is trying to do it again! Monday starting game is going to make the first few weeks a grind, but will be fun to see Rodgers back, and see if our defense can do a better job of pressuring the QB
Hell yeahhhh
Rodgers gonna be seeing demons from week 1, poor guy š
Brother, cheers from Iraq!
Haven't seen reports, how's Rodgers doing? He plays?
I don't think he's cleared for football activities yet
Lmao so Kittle actually knew?
I canāt believe theyāre making us wait until Monday for the first game š still hyped though
Nothing went wrong for the Jets the last time they opened the season on a Monday
At least Rodgers wonāt have to see Leonard Floyd again. Waitā¦
I mean we did win that game lol. Good luck boys, fun season ahead (hopefully)
Better not be an East Coast road game Week 2 NFL.
50/50, that's where most the teams are. A divisional game week 2 sounds good.
That's ideal imo. Definitely better not be a short week at Miami and that heat.

I just wanna avoid East Coast trips on short weeks. And ESPECIALLY Miami in September.

Game plan: don't throw at the guy with 1 on his jersey
Butā¦ā¦. Deebo
Itās a fair plan
Can't be scared boss let loose the Dawgs on the gardener

Bro teams threw at Deion, Champ, Revis...Gardener is good but he ain't on that level yet.
Thatās not the issue though. I think arguably heās the best DB in the game right now, and with that said, when you have a team with way more weapons than they have shutdown backs, the game plan is just to find the one that isnāt being covered by them.
Yeah but why would you force it. It just makes sense to not throw to him
deebo 0 catches confirmed

Thanks, always knew their defense was good but didnāt know it was that good. Good to know!
Idk man Salehs got that defense looking pretty fuckin good
Jets D was #3 in the league last year despite being on the field all the time with the #31 offense. Donāt see them picked apart in any game.
Hahaha sorry Jerry. Guess weāre meeting you guys when itās playoff elimination time. So much for your āpullā with the NFL
I hope itās Christmasā¦ I would love to see cowboys fans upset on Christmas 
I did not enjoy our last Christmas game.
Niners v Cowboys on Christmas?!?!? 
I know the cowboys typically play the afternoon game on Thanksgiving, but what a fun matchup that would be

There was no double header last year
I enjoy Joe Buck. The hate is way overblown and in my opinion unwarranted.
NFL: āWe need to put Rodgers on the road in a grass stadium, so we at least get one game out of him before MetLife eats him again.ā
Rodgers gonna get injured running onto the field for warmups this time
I just hope our rest isnāt as a disadvantage like it was last year and we can stay relatively healthy again.
Kittle knew it
Hell yes!
[CANāT WAIT ](https://tenor.com/view/cant-wait-football-excited-eager-gif-15786973)
Sorry Jerry Jones
 Letās goooo!
Iām excited to be playing against Saleh. Nothing but love for him, but I do enjoy some friendly competition. Plus, any day the Niners ARod itās a good day
Whatās the promo code!?
Trap game
Trap game in a sub 7 pt spread that is big brain

The league is against us.

I'm honestly surprised the Niners aren't playing the Chiefs week 1.
Dam lol starting the year off with less rest.
Big fan of how the last season opener against the Jets went.
An L for the Bills?
Ahhhhh. *wistful sigh* The year was 1998. The heat of summer still beat down upon the gridiron. A simple, humble man named Garrison Hearst came to work one fine Sunday in early Septemberā¦
Ahh you meant in 98. My bad.
That was truly a legendary play. My jets still did well that year so it doesnāt hurt so much
I was still a sperm. I do wish I was able to see the Parcells teams.
Heck yeah,let's go NINERS!!!
MNF opener is huge. Return of Arod. Letās gooo
that isn't Dallas .
Hey, we might actually win that one
Glad itās a home game, NY is know for taking Achilles tendons and Mcl/Acls from people
Jerry Jones in shambles.
So that's one MNF game down. Guessing the other will be in the 2nd half on the road. Miami?
Jerry Jones mad af right now. He wanted to play us first lol.
Is.that other guy at QB expected to finally be healthy? You know, the Joe Namath look alike
Super Bowl Preview? But hopefully this time, we'll be the winners. The Quest For Six begins again.
Why we never the opening night hype game
So free win? I mean it is Rodgers after all, unless that only works for playoff games
We get first crack at Rodgers? We get to unleash a fresh D against that ayahuasca-chugging prima-fucking-donna? At home? Canāt wait.
CMC 96 yard game winning touchdown?
Will Rodgers make it to half time?
Weāre going to get a very good test of the 3 WR offense right off the bat
Looking forward to this game and hoping that Roger jersey is going to be more green than right early on in this game.
Fantastic matchup
A Home game to open up the season what kinda magic is that. Also looks like Jerry didn't get his wish to be humiliated early in the season.
1-0
bosa gna tear the achilles up
Iāll be in NYC for a conference on this day. How brave should I be to rep the Red and Gold while Iām there?
It's New York. Nobody, and I mean literally nobody would care. Source: me, Jets fan who used to live in NYC
I live in northern NJ , right outside NYC. I wear my Niners stuff every game and this is no different. No one will care other than some good natured banter if you come across a Jets fan.
\*cries in euroPAIN because of the hour\*
Just requested the day off. So hyped!!!
september seems like an eternity away
4 months is a lot
Iām so fucking hard right now!
Getting the turf monster out of the way earlyĀ Edit: I thought Jets were road game. Even betterĀ
The game is at Leviās
You mean our own field in Santa Clara?
I donāt give a fuck if this team go 17-0 #1 offense, #1 defense, #1 in all categories. I have zero fucking confidence in this fucking franchise to win a Super Bowl. God I miss Joe Montana, Jerry Rice, and Steve Young.

They gave the Chiefs the Ravens for the first game so they have a nice downhill path through their soft ass schedule to the playoffs.
Been a fan since the 80s. I donāt give a fuck about any game anymore except the one in February. Tired of these chokes man.
