Game Day — Stairway to Cleveland

For you Jefferson Starship fans: fuck you, we do what we want . . . On paper this should be a fairly easy go of things. On the field as well. Although these things rarely go as planned. Still a bit amazed how fast expectations have changed for this team. The demoralizing come from ahead loss to Dallas was followed by an eked out win on the road in Cincy. Week 4 was supposed to be the reality check for this team. Keep close, play tough, but in the end, get overwhelmed by the superior talent in Philly. Then Tampa, the west coast killers, and on to undefeated Detroit. These were all supposed to be teams that were better, stronger, and more prepared than the 49ers. Guaranteed lock wins when their fans looked at their respective schedules. Well, things didn’t work out that way for those guys.

Cleveland? Don’t know jack about them, other than Mike Holmgren is their GM. A job he failed at miserably in Seattle. Their biggest threat, Peyton Hillis is out, and Colt McCoy is a decent enough QB, I guess.Again, haven’t seen him at all. Their defense is ranked pretty high. But 2 of their 3 wins came at the hands of 2 winless teams, mail it Indy, and the Dullfins. So, this probably won’t be a blowout, but I don’t think it’ll be that close in the end.  Somewhere like 24-10.

Beyond that, we’ll have the Philly/Cowboy game on Sunday night.  Lots of interesting stories there. Dog killer vs Promo. America’s team vs the Broad St bullies. The Dream Team vs the scream team. Maybe Romo chokes under the bright lights on prime time football again. Vick has put up astounding numbers in his 4 losses. Should be another fun game. These guys usually have some crazy shit go on. Joe Pisarchik anyone?

    I just lost my feed – Phil, do you still have it?

    Yes hold on will post

    Tine for ONE drive in the 2nd half. We are keeping these guys in the game. They’ve taken away the run. Time for slants.

  9. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Fuck. The D’s been on the field all 2nd half.

    The fucking O needs one drive.

    49ers need to close this one out. They’ve let the Browns hang around in the Second Half and now its a ballgame.

    Not a good play by Goldson there. He is good in run support, does not look nearly as good with the ball in the air. He should have been over quicker to help Brown.

    Shit, Cribbs runs in for TD after catch

  12. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Yup. Goldson is much better up close. It’s wake up time for the offense.

  13. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    One 1st down in the 2nd half?

  14. grumpyguy's avatar grumpyguy says:

    Edwards has SO MUCH better chemistry with Alex.

    Gotta play for the field goal at least here, eat some clock, finish these guys.

  15. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Gore had the 1st down w/o the facemask, so, good call.

    The CB is giving Edwards the inside, so go to thaqt.

  16. Kevin's avatar Kevin says:

    They need a first down here

  17. grumpyguy's avatar grumpyguy says:

    LMAO. The Soapster will remember that forever.

  18. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Fuckin’ a . . . This is wierd. It worked though.

  19. grumpyguy's avatar grumpyguy says:

    Nothing fancy now. Just pound it right down the middle, take the FG if you don’t punch it in.

    6-1 is sounding awfully damned good, isn’t it, guys?
