She’ll be waiting . . . Anyhow, this game is going to be a true test of the intestinal fortitude of your San Francisco 49ers. AZ is actually steadily improving lately. As NinerDog posted, their defense has become very stingy in recent games. The Niners have struggled in the red zone in recent games. As I said, I think getting Braylon Edwards is going to help, as the Niners HAVE to open things up some down close. Yes, the Niners should be able to win a defensive struggle against these guys, but they have a tough ST unit as well. Patrick Peterson has wn a couple gaems for AZ singlehandedly (relatively speaking), much like Ted Ginn’s opening day, and the Detroit game.
Interesting thing is the Niners and Raiders will be playing at the same time, so it’ll be fun to see if the Raiders can put a hurting on the Packers. Call me crazy, but I think the Raiders win this. The Packers defense is very questionable. 31st in total yards, but they do get a lot of turnovers by pick-offs. Palmer, if anything, can hit the deep pases, so if Oakland can block, they should be able to light up the scoreboard. They are also pretty good at geting pressure, so you never know.
How the tides can turn…
Son of a fucking bitch. TD, AZ, courtesy of the Zebras.
This is why it is sooooo important to score TD’s. AZ takes the lead when they should be down by at least 10 points minimum!!!!!
Teams are starting to expose the weakness of the Niners offense, bend but don’t break in the red zone for opposing defenses
Damn this looks just like Singletary offense!!
Minus the TE catching anything
This drive looks good and all, but if they don’t score TD’s it is all for naught
We’re seeing a lot of K. Hunter today. And I don’t mean Kim Hunter from “Streetcar.”
Stella!
LOL
Phil, I’m glad you appreciate fine cinematic history much like myself. I just watched “Streetcar” for the umpteenth just the other day. That film ranks in Del Mar’s Top 5 all-time. More importantly, Marlon Brando ranks #1 in my book as the greatest male actor of the 21st Century.
I loved him as Don Corleone, but I really felt for him as Stanley Kowalski.
Hey, Stella!
Del I’m seriously gonna have to check that one out, thanks!
Whaddya say? Another FG
Like I said, the drive looked pretty, but what a but ugly red zone plays!!
This is the Roman offense? Weak
ANOTHER RZ dump. We’re lucky that AS previous pass wasn’t an INT.
But that’s what you guys have leading you into the playoffs.
Check Down Charlie. And a QB who needed his TE to speak up for him vs Philly.
Drew Brees or Alex Smith? I might have to sleep on that one — NOT! (Borat)
Raiders getting destroyed. Chuck, check my 12:51 post
You called it
Cool let’s get 3
I’m going all Del Mar: just get 3!!
YAY!!
not good
3 times inside the 10 yard line, 9 points. Terrible!!!
Dennis– his deflected pass was bad, he stared the receiver down and then threw an easy pass to block. But dude, do u watch any other games? You must not. Almost every qb in the league makes at least a few mistakes in a gm, including brews, romo, daulton, all your faves. We have some probs in the redzone right now– that’s on the OC ss much as it is the qb and the guys who aren’t making plays. Only a simpleton turns a football game into their qb vs our qb. Either that or you don’t understand the game. So which one of those guys do you wanna be?
Dennis, didja catch Brady’s pick in the end zone?
Of course not.
Flav, I watch more football ( college and Pro) than you and the other 90% combined. If you and others don’t like what I report, that’s fine by me. All I do is try and find the best players that might help the 49ers. I think I more than did that with my previous analysis.
Screw that, Frank just scored a TD!
Which reminds me. I better check Frank’s litter box for Alex Smith droppings…
Really crappy half of football in the Red Zone by our offense.
Wherever you want to put the blame, this had better get fixed. This game should be 24-0 or 24-7 by now, not a one-score game. If we play the Packers like this, we lose 35-15.
Exactly
What I don’t get is no passes to Edwards or VD down close. Ginn shouldn’t be the on to run a corner fade. EVER. I don’t fucking get it at all. The blocking is shit today. 5 sacks?
The Niners don’t have any. Unless the fumble counts as one.
I liked the shot of VD while being restrained shouting and glaring at the coaches. WTF? This right before our last FG
After as well… I’d imagine it was a loud halftime between the coaches and the players.
It’s safe to say Roman is no Walsh
Nice sack Aldon
