Affleck now has GG and SAG nominations for this performance which has to mean something. Not to muscle into Brother Fease's territory, but I did some research and it's quite uncommon for supporting actors to get nominated for both of those without getting an Oscar nomination (less uncommon for supporting ladies interestingly). Only happened a couple times since SAG started handing out prizes in '94.
2020 - Leto, The Little Things
2018 - Chalamet, Beautiful Boy
2015 - Shannon, 99 Homes AND Elba, Beasts of No Nation
2013 - Brühl, Rush
2002 - Quaid, Far from Heaven
*also happened in 2001 with Christensen (Life as a House) but HFPA nominated six perfs that year so no way of knowing if he was in their top 5.
and a couple more times in the 90s.
Is Affleck going to join these rare perfs that nabbed both GG and SAG nobs while ultimately being snubbed? What works against him is that this year's SA race is really messy with 8 legitimate contenders for five spots so there's a chance he doesn't make it through that. But then again, of the five contenders (Leto/Affleck/Cooper/Dornan/Faist) angling for those remaining two spots assuming Smit-McPhee/Kotsur/Hinds are safe, Affleck is the only one to have both GG and SAG nominations. So what do we think?
