So, Harbaugh did in game one what it took Singletary 6 weeks to do last year, and that was win game one. Next on Harbaugh’s bucket list is to win on the road. Since last year’s Denver gasme was technically a home game (London? Right), Singletary didn’t win a road game til week 12 in AZ. Yes, Cincinnati is a bottom-feeder in the NFL, but home field is a pretty big equalizer. Just ask Dallas. They barely escaped an 0-2 start, while the Niners would have been included in the list of surprising 2-0 teams (Washington, Detroit, Buffalo, and Texas). Anyhow, 1-1 is fine for now. However, if this team is going to be thought of as making progress, they need to beat the crappier teams in the league. And Cincinnati certainly falls into that realm. Gingerbread man Andy Dalton notwithstanding.
Raggedy Andy has put up decent numbers (37/56, 413 yds, 3 TDs 0 picks, 105 QBR) against a couple of bad defenses in Cleveland and Denver. He’s hitting a lot of underneath stuff (7.4 yds/completion), so this may not bode well for the 49ers. Dallas killed the Niners in the 4th quarter with underneath stuff after harassing Romo most of the day. Their pass pro is decent enough (5 sacks in 2 games) but one can hope we bring the pressure more than Cleve and Denver.
As far as our offense goes? I can’t even hazard a guess. The Niners played as good a 1st half as they could have offensively. They followed it up in the 2nd half with a strategy that let Dallas right back into the game. one hopes that they’ll keep the offensive flow going throughoout the entire game on Sunday, and not try to force the run at all costs.
San Francisco 49ers Forever 
Cincy is not a good football team. Improving yes, but still not that good. Throw in the added distractions this week courtesy of Simpson’s weed bust and Benson’s suspension ( he’s appealing and will play) and disorder usually ensues. If nothing else, the Bengals must already be sick and tired of answering those same questions over and over again. Lose this game Sunday, and I’ll start the “Fire Jimbo!” petition on Monday.
Side note: I p/u Simpson in both our fantasy leagues the day before he got busted for the weed arriving at his house. So much for my DEA inside info…
Del,
I recently moved over to Humboldt county and upon arrival I had to meet with the DEA to address a number of concerns my previous county had with my inhabitance. We agreed in this county I wouldn’t go within a five mile radius of any school, within a 2 mile radius of any old folks’ home, or within a mile of any pet cemetery. After that awkward conversation our talk turned to the booming weed market over here and he said they were currently investigating some NFL players. I immediately assumed he meant former Cowboy, Nate Newton, but he said they were current players so considering the recent rumors that Al Davis was going to relocate his Raiders to Humboldt for the uh, “climate,” coupled with the teams life-long history of false start penalties, I assumed he was referring to the entire Raider organization. He saw that I was inquisitive, and hinted, “Let’s put it this way – A tiger doesn’t change his stripes.” That’s when it all started to make sense to me. If I had a god given gift to play in the NFL and my number was called by fuck tard owner, Mike Brown, I’d be higher than the Mars Rover. I’d request the entire turf be made of a hybrid – part Kentucky Bluegrass, part Featherbed Bent, and part Northern California Sensimilla. See, the great thing about that would be, you could play four quarters on it in the afternoon and then take it home and get stoned to the bejesus belt in the evening. Needless to say, because of the news, I steered clear of all Bengals on my FF team. Doesn’t mean I wouldn’t love Cedrick Benson, even with a three game suspension. My team needs some running back help pronto. But that’s what happens when you draft out of the 9 hole. Silly me.
My position that injury not be wished on a player has been lifted after watching ESPN all week- it is perfectly acceptable to prefer that Tony Romo had broken his fucking neck. Based on the coverage, I thought Sammy Baugh was up from his grave and playing in a body cast this week..
Trust me, wishing for injury doesn’t work. If it did, Alex would have been pushing up daisies long ago…
And Alex can only dream about as being as tough and heroic as Tony Romo. If Alex had broken a rib and punctured a lung, he woulda asked VD to tell the coach to get him outta there so fast that even Vernon wouldn’t have stuck up for his sorry ass this time.
You went a little beyond wishing for an injury, Death Threat Denny. BTW, no one’s buying the hip story- how did the thiamine replacement go?
lol
Seeing as my Crocodile Crocs have Team Spitblood this week I’m wishing not for injury but that coach Spit was befuddled by ingesting / inhaling too much of the Humboldt good shit when he was filling out his lineup card. Us Crocs we’ll take any edge we can find…
Your edge is that Arian Foster is being an idiot with his hamstring. He needs to completely sit out this game and stop forcing the issue. I’ll take another loss to you to get a healthy Foster back in the lineup, but him practicing, then completely fucking my team over with his “maybe I am, maybe I’m not,” bullshit – and then playing, getting me four points and re-injuring his hammy all over again is only going to force me to fly to Houston on Tuesday to kick the ever-loving piss outta Foster and Kubiac’s. I don’t want to do that. I’m a racist….. I mean pacifist.
I’ll leave it to my grammar / spell checker, Del, to tell me my apostrophe s on the end of Kubiac was unnecessary.
Rob (apostrophe) s squirrel could have told you that.
King me, bitch!
Official injury report: WR Edwards, FB Norris are out. WR Crabtree (foot), QB Alex Smith (concussion), CB Tramaine Brock (hand) are probable.
uh oh
Spitblood says:
” I recently moved over to Humboldt county ”
so is it just me , or is anybody else feeling REAL sorry for humboldt county right about now ! ?
I’m wondering why his hard drives weren’t seized.
because they felt sorry for him and knowing him like we do , they know that nothing else about him that’s hard has ever been ‘seized ‘ either !
Ouch, u guys are brutal. Hey, I thought this was a football blog. I was really hoping we would put Romo out of the game but we played the F-up prevent and they shoved that pill right where the sun don’t shine. Just another reason for revenge when the time comes.
LOL, good one
Rob – Don’t you think it’s time you stop spending so much time on E Harmony? I know you and your squirrel scroll endlessly through profiles looking for man love with a squirrel option. I bet your profile name is …. “looking_for_cream_of_sum_young_guy.”
I think last year’s first and second round picks were so fuckin’ terrible it pisses me off endlessly. End-less-ly. If we had a talent evaluator anywhere near SF, we could have Earl Thomas.
There are certain positions you just don’t pick in the first round: FB, OG, Center, DE (in a 3/4), OLB (in a 4/3) and so on. What Mike Singletary essentially did last year was draft two offensive guards in the first round, and one, Mike Iupati, can’t pass protect and he can’t get his pads low enough to be a good short yardage run blocker. Fuckin’ terrible. Two offensive guards in the first round. No wonder that fucker is now a linebacker coach…. for life. High water mark, San Francisco. And Anthony Davis can’t pass block either. In both games this season Davis was beatin’ like a rented mule, or Harbaugh and Roman gave him help with a TE. Davis isn’t a tackle. What the Niners need to do with both of these guys is trade Iupati and try Anthony Davis at strong side guard for a year. Make the switch now. What’s gonna happen? We gonna get Alex Smith killed? That’s unacceptable.
I just watched the next crop of OTs Matt Kalil, Stanford’s Jonathan Martin, Riley Reiff, Andrew Datko and Levi Adcock on Youtube. Scouts Inc has them ranked the way I wrote them out. The dude that jumped out at me was Iowa’s Riley Reiff. But for my money, Kalil, Reiff and Datko are all interchangeable and they’d all need time at ROT before sliding over to left OT. I did not like Jim Harbaugh’s Stanford boy, Jonathan Martin. He has slow feet and was routinely beaten to the inside on passing downs. Riley Reiff engaged his man early, kept his ass down (something Iupati can’t do), and in the Youtube video I found, he held his own against Aldon Smith. The one area of concern I had about OT Riley Reiff was that he sometimes played with a really wide base – meaning his feet were really wide apart. I don’t know if that’s a negative or a positive. In the pros he might get knocked on his ass. But, like I said, he held his own against Aldon Smith.
Depending on what happens this year, if Riley Reiff was on the board when the Niners pick in 2012, I’d draft him with a plan to play him at ROT for a year, then switch with Staley. ‘Cause what I’m seeing from Anthony Davis – he’s a guard (if that).
Staley, Davis, Goodwin, Kilgore, Reiff in 2012, with a plan to switch Reiff and Staley in a year or two. Trade Rachal and Iupati right now for draft picks. Do not wait until the off season. The longer it takes to act, the longer this team will be a dinosaur.
All right….. I already have two potential first round draft picks for the Niners next year – OT Riley Reiff or CB Dre Kirkpatrick. Watching the ‘Bama / Ark game right now. Love Kirkpatrick. He’s tall, he hits and he plays bump and run for Saban.
Iowa’s Riley Reiff or Alabama’s Dre Kirkpatrick. If both are there, it’s a toss up who you take – depends on if you can trade Iupati and / or Rachal.
Dennis,
I know your drunk ass is out there somewhere, watching the ‘Bama / Ark game right now. Are you watching this kid Dre Kirkpatrick? Fuckin’ guy’s awesome. He’s the best corner in the draft. No question. Blows Janoris Jenkins, Morris Claiborne and Alfonzo Dennard out of the water. Out. of. the. water. The only other guy close to Dre Kirkpatrick is Oregon’s Cliff Harris, who plays very soft, is much shorter, isn’t a hitter but what Cliff Harris does well is locate the ball in the air – think it’s because he plays off the ball so far. But Saban has Kirkpatrick playing up tight. Love Kirkpatrick.
I’m watching the kid play QB like you should be doing also. Leave the DBs and OTs to Baalke. That’s his area of expertise to fuck it up. Leave the fucking up of QBs to those who know what the hell they’re doing.
What the hell you talking about? We need to draft one position in the 1st rd next year, and one position only — QB. Remember that Sando quote from last year? “The 49ers should draft a QB in the 1st rd until they get it right.” Well, swing and a miss last yr with the mook from Nevada.
I got one for ya — Ryan Tannehill, Texas A&M. The kid’s still learning the position at the collegiate level. He just started the last 6 games for the Aggies as a Jr last yr and set the world on fire. Numbers all across the board are through the roof. Tannehill is a converted WR. I know what you’re thinking, Spit, but you’re wrong. The dude is a cracker.
You can watch him live on ABC at this very moment. Those Okie St. unis are god awful.
The first round in the draft is all about options and scenarios. Trust me, I was watching the Tannehill to Fuller connection. That kid can sling it and he has wheels like Locker. And Fuller ain’t too shabby either. The only way I’d take Tannehill, though, is if I thought he had HOF potential. In my opinion, Locker and Dalton both had HOF potential coming out of college (I thought Locker more so than Dalton coming out).
Right now, though, it doesn’t matter who we put behind center. You put Dalton or Kaep or anyone for that matter behind this O line and they’re gonna suck. The Niners must fix their O line first before drafting a qb, that’s why Sando is wrong. Fuck, Tolzien could be Dalton for all we know. And I haven’t given up on Kaep like you have.
You gotta watch OT Riley Reiff play for Iowa. And Dre Kirkpatrick will be better than Patrick Peterson. Kirkpatrick is fuckin’ solid. If you don’t see a HOF qb, or Riley Reiff isn’t there anymore when we select in the first, the Niners have got to take Dre Kirkpatrick.
The one concern I have with Tannehill (and don’t get me wrong, I love the kid) is that he’s skinny. What year is he? Locker and Newton can run because they’re bigger. Tannehill would get snapped like a twig in the pros right now – much like Ponder, Stanzi and Mallet. But Tannehill can sling it. I want a qb who can take a beating. I don’t know how Kaep is going to handle the hits.
Tannehill will be put to the test here now trailing by 4. Let’s see what he has…
an INT. I jinxed the poor bastard. never fucking fails.
That’s the #1 rated WR making a play only a fucking mook could appreciate.
Justin Blackmon: Mook of the Year.
Del,
If you follow my thinking….. the Niners have no chance at Luck. So the only other first round talent right now even close to being on the radar is OU’s qb, L Jones. He’s interesting, but there’s a lot of questions about him, and there’s no knowing if Tolzien and Kaep are just as good. So the verdict is still out there depending on how Jones plays this year. But if it not a qb in the first, the Niners have two areas of their team they need to address – O line and secondary. You gotta watch Alabama’s CB Dre Kirkpatrick and Iowa’s OT, Riley Reiff. They’re the best in their class.
Spit, don’t forget about SC’s, Matt Barkley. Many scouting services have him ranked ahead of L. Jones. My one question with him is his arm strength. It’s adequate. But I’m not sure it’s NFL adequate.
Andrew Luck is so head and shoulders better than those two it’s not even funny. Luck is like Secretariat at the Belmont — it’s a goddamn boat race.
And least not forget “my boy,” Nick Foles. That kid can play. But he is playing on a shit-ass Arizona team this year. It’s going to test his moxie. He has 1st rd talent. I just hope he doesn’t get tossed like a Raggedy Ann doll this yr and break him in two.
Shitty call by Tedford and just as shitty pass by Maynard on 4th dn with the game on the line.
Fuck Cal. Go Stanford.
you watching Stanford’s Jonathan Martin?
I’m with your qb thinking, but if it’s not realistic, or there isn’t a potential HOFer out there, you gotta look at other positions. And clearly, the Niners need CBs and OTs, and those are two positions first round worthy. I think the Niners have plenty of interior O linemen to sort it out. I don’t think, however, the Niners have OTs. There are plenty of OTs and CBs this year who could be available in the 2012 draft. Kirkpatrick and Reiff. Kirkpatrick and Reiff. Don’t tell anybody. Kirkpatrick and Reiff.
Del,
I’m re-watching the Niner / Cowboy game …… Media Williams and Reggie Smith lost that game for us. Even though Donte Whitner bit heavily on the play fake in overtime, Whitner isn’t just an in the box safety like you think. He has coverage and deep center field ball skills. He just needs a competent FS next to him. WIlliams and Smith should be playing in Canada. Too bad there aren’t any first round Earl Thomas or Eric Berry type safeties in this upcoming draft. We need a FS. I hope Goldson pulls his head out of his ass. If Dalton burns him like Kitna and Romo burned Williams and Smith, I’m gonna get drunker than Billy Bob in Bad Santa. My guess, and I saw your betting line stuff – Niners beat the Bengals by 21pts.
Another DB to keep an eye out for is Alfonzo Dennard, NEB. He played oppo of Prince and actually made more plays. BTW, how is the Prince doing in NY? Oh, that’s right. Prince Pussy is hurt. I’m sure as hell glad we didn’t draft that mook. Then again, I’m not too happy with the mook we took at #7 either.
Kid: I wished for a purple elephant, but now I want a pink elephant!
Bad Santa: Well, wish in one hand, shit in the other; see which one fills up first.
Are you saying you don’t like Aldon Smith? Are you listening to college football on the radio? ‘Cause you’re clearly blinded by the hate.
Another CB to watch tonight in ABC’s LSU/WV marquee matchup is the Tigers’ Morris Claiborne. Like Dennard, Claiborne played oppo of the “big name” last year. This time of course being Patrick Peterson. Morris more than held his own. He’s a little light in the loafers (180 lbs) but has tons of speed and mad covering “skillz.”
Yeah, I tried to watch some Dennard highlights and couldn’t find much. Doesn’t mean there aren’t any – just means I either couldn’t find ’em or Neb’s marketing team isn’t anywhere near the Niners’. What am I saying, Coke, Pepsi, Bud and all of Detroit don’t have the marketing power of the Niners.
I was never on Prince. I think that was Chuck. But Chuck knows about as much about drafting as Rob knows about women.
I think Navoro Bowman (note the spelling) could be the next John Taylor. Great player playing alongside a legend.
You should worry less about “Navoro” Bowman, and more about your fantasy team. You’re a 24 pt dog according to the ESPN line. What gives? Ahhhh…starting Javon Ringer at RB. That’ll do it every time. Mook.
I have to sweat it out till Monday night. If Romo and Dez Bryant don’t play, I’m screwed. And just because I haven’t said it once all week…how bout dem Cowboys!
I want to go on record as saying I’m recommending William Costigan for the metal of merit. I’d also like to go on record as saying Brian Billick is the biggest moron to ever announce a football game. There’s a reason he’s in the booth, and like Jerry Glanville once said, “Not For Long.” I can’t listen to that fucker. Grump was also right…. Goodwin had a terrible game against Ratliff.
Regarding my fantasy football team, I’ve been playing too much PPR fantasy football. I don’t value the running back at all anymore, but then again, I am a man before my time. I got Foster and figured I could find a stud on the waiver wire. But when Foster goes down, and you don’t value the running back anymore, you start guys like Javon Ringer. To make matters worse, I dropped Tate for Ward. I am a mook. I did, however, find Daniel Thomas before you did to foil your Reggie Bush “on grass” will be a new man prediction. Talk about your fuckin’ mooks. You sniff glue?
Yeah, Tony Sparano dicked me and every other Bush owner (I hoped you enjoyed that) last week when he said it was gonna be 70/30 Reggie, then he pulled a George Costanza and went with an “opposite day.” Bastard. This RB by committee shit pisses me off to no end. At least I grabbed Helu to b/u Hightower in D.C. I’m sure “Shanny” will lead me in the wrong direction there as well…
The FF Gods were with you last week Spit: my computer went down right as I was gonna grab J Finely TE who Chuck put on waivers. Chuck what the hell were you thinking?
Chuck never thinks when it comes to fantasy. Unless of course when he does his best Brad Hamilton thinking about Phoebe Cates coming out of the pool in “Fast Times at Ridgemont High.”
Shit. Landry Jones has an NFL arm. WTF they growing there in that goddamn Okie state? First Bradford, now this clone.
Hey, I redid my whole team. Went one guy too far.
I don’t pay enough attention to this stuff (obviously) . . .
You mean you actually have a life? I got a life in retirement and even have time to have a fantasy football life. Not that I know what the hell I’m doing mind you
I watched enough college football today to know there isn’t a first round qb worthy of playing for the San Francisco 49ers. No first round qb for us in 2012. Why? Because I’m a geneous, and I said so. The only kid out there I like doesn’t have the arm – Kellen Clemons. Qb is all about heart and leadership. Romo is a commercial. I can’t believe I’m about to write this, but if Smith keeps playing like he has – with heart – I may start rooting for him. Wouldn’t that just fuck up the planets. My toilet would flush without a swirl. My refrigerator would keep an even temp of 100 degrees, people would drive to work backwards and Rob would find bestiality gross. But seriously, the kid’s showing heart. I can foresee future blogs about Smith with me throwing in there….. “I knew if he just had good coaching he’d do okay…. just to fuckin’ drive Twinfan into the basement of the insane asylum with his hair on fire, screaming for mercy. But the kid’s showin’ some heart.
Anyway, enough of that foolishness. It’s all about Reiff and Kirkpatrick in the first. Reiff is my first choice, Kirkpatrick is my second …. unless this season our O line starts to show they can pass block. I’ve got that and pigs flying out of my ass at even money. The over/under on the number of pigs was set yesterday at 4 (there’s some big women over here in Humboldt). I can only let so many pig women crawl up my ass, so I’m going to put my lock of the season at “pigs to the under.” That leaves us with Reiff.
PhilFan – The FF Gods are trying to makeup for Foster’s hamstring stupidity by granting me Finley, but they are cruel. I dropped Gonzo for Finley only to see Zack Miller and Tavaris Jackson have about as much week 2 chemistry as Rob and any woman from anywhere. Even E-Harmony, Photoshop and videos of his squirrel waterskiing can’t create a scoring hookup there.
Del where do you find the odds on the FF games on ESPN? Rather ask you than expend any effort.
Spit I sympathize with Rob: my previous wife (an honest to God woman…I think) I met on American Singles. Shoulda followed my gut and nixed it right away. Shoulda just let nature take it’s course like I did over here, good gal. Yeah the Humboldt women all have the munchies from all the good shit they be smokin’. Watch them pigs, jeez.
Phil, look under the “Scoreboard” heading. It’s there along with a quick synopsis, box score and preview.
The game starts @ 1 AM over here so gonna either go to bed early or stay up late. Cheers, go 9ers!
Jerome Simpson is going to play today for the Bengals. You have 8 1/2 lbs of weed in your house? No problem. Suit up Sunday and go catch some balls.
I liked the NFL and Goodell better when they were Fascists.
Niner inactives: QB Tolzien, WR Edwards, FB Norris, OL Kilgore, OL Person, NG Williams, DT Dobbs.
I think Rob has everyone of those guys on his fantasy team.
Four things came to me in a dream last night:
1.) The Niners will win by 3 touchdowns today.
2.) Montario Hardesty will make the Browns forget their 0-2 start.
3.) Dre Kirkpatrick is a top ten pick in next year’s draft and there’s no way the Niners will be in position to draft him. ESPN’s college draft big board is fuckin’ wack. Dre Kirk is the best corner in the nation.
4.) Steve Spagnuolo will be the Niners’ D coordinator in two years. Harbaugh better be nice to him before and after football games.
Niners will win by 3 touchdowns today?
I think Jerome Simpson’s latest package got delivered to your house by mistake.
Picking up Montario Hardesty should solve all your fantasy problems. Mook.
well you’re a breath of fresh dog manure
Not only do I start Cowboys on my team, I just p/u that Raider WR, Denarius Moore and inserted him into my lineup as well.
I think I know how Anakin Skywalker felt when he turned into Darth Vader.
We won the coin toss and defer to the second half.
More confidence in our offense. And in particular, our QB.
Our defense needs to wake up!
The ginger is carving up our secondary…
Yeah. Dalton looks like the real deal.
Dalton is already 10X better than Alex Smith.
Jesus Christ… has this kid been anything but dead on target yet?
Spit… it was all a dream. Fuck us.
Dalton looks amazing. Or…… our secondary is awful. How the league didn’t see Dalton was a top fifteen pick in the first round is beyond me. Fuckin’ mooks.
Think Dalton was who JH really wanted
Then our guy who won Jed’s nation-wide search to be our GM shoulda traded up to NE(?) to secure the first pk on day day.
He who hesitates…
Nation wide search, right
Dalton went just one pick ahead of Kaep. Man, are we gonna rue that day…
Shoulda been a pick, but the D finally stiffened.
Glad you could finally join us, Chuck. Fr. give a long sermon at Mass today?
Bruce Miller is already 100X better than Moran Norris.
Andy Lee MVP
Play action and a fullback pass. haven’t seen that in a long time on first down.
Bad throw, too high.
Our offensive line and our secondary are the worst in the history of the NFL. How’s Harbaugh gonna win with that?
And who’s responsible for assembling that talent?
Baalke needs to be fired post-haste.
Nice screen there. Jesus H. Christ.
I hate to say it, but Frank Gore has lost two steps. Jim Singletary needs to stop giving Gore the ball. Dixon, Hunter and spread the fuckin’ offense out.
Yep it’s the SCO
Donte Whitner is questionable w/ a hip injury. M. Williams in at SS.
Went to the spread on 1st dn. 4-wide.
I’m really starting to hate Frank Gore….. never thought I’d say that.
There’s the fucking leader of your O-line with a stupid penalty.
Media Williams in? We’re fucked.
Smith avoids the rush, then misses Crabs. Those two have absolutely NO chemistry whatsoever.
Our offensive line is the worst in football, and I could carve up our secondary throwing bombs to Del in his wheelchair and “slow slants” to Grump in his walker. We’re fucked.
This looks about right, man
Media Williams makes me long for the days of Roman and Lewis.
Crabtree better not be starting over Kyle Williams.
Jesus VD catch the fucking ball!
Snyder in for Rachal
We burned a TO? I’ll say this, it’s been a near seamless and cohesive transition from Nolan-Singletary-Jimbo.
“Didn’t have a chance”: your 2011 49ers in a single phrase.
Just a tad high there, Alex. Piece of shit.
Nice penalty. Let’s keep shooting ourselves in the foot, since we look like crap anyway. Oy.
Over here it’s 1:51 AM and the 9ers playing like it’s 2AM in Cincy
Phil, I salute you for hangin’ in there with the time diff. Good fan, you are.
Parys sucks. Why isn’t Aldon playing?
Well, we’re passing . . . for good or bad. No consistency . . . I think Harbaugh keeps the ball in the air.
Almost another pick. VD will never be taken seriously dropping shit like that.
He’s flat terrible at times.
Chilo sucks. His man just BLEW him up and got Frank. He needs to go.
Now he gets called for holding.
Nice call on 1st down- Gore right
Jim Mora just called our OL, “really good.”
No wonder he’s no longer coaching.
Agree, what are these people watching?
Harbaugh is playing all the wrong people.
Then “our best” can’t catch or block ugh
Brooks slams Dalton. At least he’s awake
Bengals ran a stunt, and Iupati was just standing there. Pathetic.
Billick did the same shit last week, saying our O-line was so good. I think it isn’t only the Bengals getting packages from Humboldt.
Really Grump or they’re all drunk
Who’s Harbaugh gonna believe? Billick or his own lying eyes?
Tom Brady just might throw for 6,000/60. Unreal.
Another penalty on Chilo. Hangin’ would be too good for him.
Brian Billick last week and Jim Mora this week calling our O line one of the best in football in back to back weeks just shows how the media distorts reality buy trying to sell tickets. Our O line is probably the worst in football. This isn’t Solari. This is Singletary, McCloughan and now Harbaugh not starting the right people. Chilo Rachal should lose his starting job after this half. Alex Smith is throwing 58 foot fastballs.
I see the that it is true, the Niners are going to rely heavily on the run and basically pass only when they are desperate. Sad, another wasted season of running the ball. I am so sick of hearing hand off to Gore from the announcers
Kevin, WTF game are you watching? The Niners have 15 pass att. vs 8 runs.
I just got home and watched Gore get two hand offs when the Niners are backed behind there own 20
Nice tough play by Hunter.
The Niners need to turn our current OTs into guards and find two new OTs.
I’m starting to believe you Spit
Hunter gets the first. Smith is getting pounded, again. That and the penalties.
Man we got a lot of work on offense
Nice call there on 3rd and 2. Even better blocking by Iupati, Goodwin and Chilo.
This OL is downright disgusting.
That’s the game Kevin is watching, puke.
Nice call, great blocking = pure shit
Yikes. Tendencies? 3rd and 2 up the middle? I thought we were change things up from last year.
Same as it ever was….
Why, why?
Some of this is on the play calling
6 1st downs and 92 yds total offense for the 1st half.
Bring back Jimmy Raye!
Say what you will but Jimmy Hat Raye had 3 games with 0 1st downs in the 1st half.
Bad blocking, penalties, Smith inconsistent, drops by VD and Crabs, and lousy blocking gives you 0 points. 2 downfield passes? Blocking or no, send someone on a go route. ONCE?
Harbaugh’s a pussy.
Our line cannot block for the run. Our line cannot block for the pass.
Not leaving us a lot of options here, guys.
Can’t remember seeing such poor OL play except for last year and the couple before that.
I just got home, watched to hand offs to Gore when the Niners were back behind their own 20 yard line
We’re seeing it too unfortunately
Week 2 our secondary lost the game. Week 3 our offensive line lost the game. Sando: The Niners should draft a qb in the first round for the next ten years. Wrong. I used to believe it, but wrong. The Niners should draft a DB or OLinemen in the first for the next 1,000 years. I wonder if we lose this game if Harbaugh will get so much heat he’ll start looking at other players. I wonder if Kaep could have completed all those five yard passes Smith just missed.
If you want to call that good play calling, feel free to do so.
Smith has had a few passes dropped and he doesn’t have much time back there but he’s hardly been accurate with his passes. And that last sack reminded me that his pocket awareness isn’t very good. How many 1st rd picks do we have on that OL? And there have been plays were everyone fucked up the block at the same time. Did balkke have a lot to do with all these 1st rd OL picks?
Nice play by Alex to stay on his feet and make a play.
Smith has to do a better job of hitting his receivers so they can run after the catch. Walker had to go way down to catch that. A better pass is an easy 1st down.
Got to get some end zone here. Get a couple scores ahead.
Wow. Not good there. Don’t know how he got it back.
He’s getting desperate, now has Ice on offense to try to get some blocking for the RB
Lucky break, but we’re playing right into their hands.
They are crowding all our plays.
Fucking Crabs.
Someone please tell me why we gave Frank Gore a contract extension?
You can do that right after you tell me why Crabtree dropped that pass.
In my house hold his name is Frank “two bad knees” Gore. Kinda like signing, Tejada and Cabrera.
Why does Crabs get to play?
I don’t know Chuck maybe Billick said he was great?
Nice catch crabtree
Smith hit Crabs right in the hands. Fucker needs to quit if he can’t catch that shit.
Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!
