This should be an interesting game as Pete Carroll has a shot to try somewhat even the score with Jim Harbaugh. Jim “what’s YOUR deal?” Harbaugh seems to have a leg up on his skirmishes with Carroll going back to the Stanford/USC days. Harbaugh was 3-1 vs Carroll in college, and. so foar inthe NFL, is 1-0 vs Carroll. So, the onus is on Carroll to break the vise-like hold Harbaugh has on him, and for all intents and purposes had better players in college, and whose team is coming on pretty strong defensively this season. They are on a roll, and look to keep their slim playoff hopes alive for one more week.
Pretty heady stuff, seeing as how they started the year in the shitter by going 2-6. As this division is supposed to be weak sauce, the rest of the NFC can’t seem to close them out. All in all, though, the Niners should win out and wear these guys down.
San Francisco 49ers Forever 
49er inactives – Tolzien, Ginn, Brock, Willis, Kilgore, Person, I.Williams.
Why the 49ers keep their best QB inactive is beyond me.
Just in case Phil missed it from the last thread: 24-17 to the town littered with a Starbucks coffeehouse on every corner.
I hate cheering for the Raiders, but that looooong TD pass to Denarius Moore really helped my fantasy team.
How bout that Mike Nolan-led Fish D sticking it to Tom Terrific and Co. in Foxborough?
Give that man another HC job…
I think T-Blow caught a little caught up in the birthday preparations- this might be the worst QB performance, since, well-the last worst QB performance by T-Blow..
Maybe he turned too much water into wine?
Don’t worry, DTD, the Niner game is all yours. If you pretend dear Mommie is at your side, you can shoot that bastard QB together. Family reunions are so touching…
They must not celebrate Christmas in Buffalo.
For they gave poor T-Blow, the old heave-ho.
But fret not my followers of the Chosen One.
Jesus beats KC next week, and he shall of won!

And a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours.
Thanks again for playing in our little FF league. Hope you had some fun and look forward to seeing you again next year.
Merry Christmas at you too.
Yep the FF League was a lot of fun, thanks for the invite!
I don’t know who is running the Raiders show.
But if Hue loses this one, he’s gots to go.
Tebow and his disciples really did have a mulligan this week.
Beat the Chiefs and the world shall be inherited by the meek.
Did the Bronks win? I guess not but hey still a great year
With the Raiders winning, a Bronco W wouldn’t have even clinched it.
But if they beat KC next week, they win the AFC West.
Bold prediction for the day: not only does “Beast Mode” score the 1st rushing TD vs our D this yr, he also goes for 100+ yds.
Hey, a fight on the kickoff. I’m loving this game already…
That was that dude’s FIRST NFL catch. He just got promoted off the PS.
Figures.
Fucking Doug Baldwin. Ex-Cardinal bites Harbaugh in the ass.
Goldson and T. Brown should be ashamed of themselves on that play.
Poor tackling/angles doesn’t even begin to explain that debacle…
Yeah bad tackling
Jezzus OB for VD
I blame both VD and Alex on that one. If Alex leads him inside, it’s an easy TD.
Even still, VD shoulda got both feet in bounds for a big gain.
Not so Green Akers on that FG. No money.
God, I hate Vernon Davis.
Shoot him.
Typical over-reaction “I hate VD” = “I’m gonna shoot VD” from da Killa ‘twinfuck’
Right, that’s rational
Hawks are playing their Super Bowl
Tackling has been shabby to say the least…
Yes again since Willis is out
Is there anything more annoying than the rah-rah demeanor of the Marin county boy Carroll?
Why NO there isn’t
Romo left with a rt. hand injury. There goes my FF Championship out the window…
I saw that. You’re in the running for the championship huh?
Not in our ESPN league, but the yahoo! one.
If Tebow is Jesus, I need Tony to be Lazarus…
Only in your mind Del Mar
The G-Men’s W eliminated the Iggles from the playoffs.
They need to take an emotional dump and give Romo a field day…if he returns.
Nice play by Smith to keep the play alive and hit Frank. Good job.
I hope Delanie is OK. On the bright side, at least he won’t drop any more passes today. 😀
Brutal hit. Game is nasty and violent today….as expected
When did J. Smith get banged up? He missed the last series.
J. Smith is probable to return. Leg (ankle?) injury.
Thank Christ. He’s our best defensive player. w/o Willis on the field.
Even with PW active, an argument can be made for Justin…
6 AM Christmas morning here in the neighborhood. Ah, the sound of techno music blaring from the community center. Sets the mood real nice, lol
I hate to harp on it, but our tackling has been SHIT thus far.
Learn how to tackle!
Yep
56 yds on just 7 carries for the Beast.
Learn how to tackle!
Thank you NaVarro for learning how to tackle. Nice play.
Good job coach
Fortunate that was only “running” into the kicker and not roughing.
VD drops another one. We can’t afford this today
My friend Faithful and I had a schtick back on the Insider (SFGate) 3 yrs ago where we’d ask each other on a daily basis if “Did we trade Vernon Davis yet?”
I think that needs to be revisited.
Somebody is calling for a trade of Davis here. He’s done shit today
Chargers are mailing in another one. Season over I’m thinking
Ya think this 3rd dn play is going to The Beast?
97 yards total rushing. 83 for Lynch
Hey, I was comment #49. I’m superstitious as hell. Hope it works out…
This review is taking forfuckingever. Play ball!
A little cute there Seahawks…busted play
WTF was that play? Was that by design? Pete Carroll has The Beast mowing us down and he tried to get cute with that shit?
I wish I knew someone who would threatened his life. He deserves to die for that play call.
Shot himself in the foot w/ that one. Hopefully it comes back to bite ’em. Thanks Pete
And Tavaris didn’t make a great effort to stretch out for the EZ.
Make that a twofer for the designated hit man.
17, Edwads makes a catch
Rathman happy with Hunter on the run
That CB, Browner, for Seattle is HUGE.
Smith has a ball batted down at the LOS. Shocking.
He’s listed at 6-4 221. I’ve never seen that before for a corner.
That’s big for a safety.
VD catches in bounds, short…useless
Time for D again as our passing game is not working…again
Alex: 6 fer 15 for 43 yds in the 1st half. 2 fer 7 on 3rd dns. 47.9 QBR.
3-yr extension!
Tavaris Jackson sucks. He throws the Hail Mary OB?
Even the Virgin Mother needs a helping hand.
T-jack is awful but the rest of the Seahawks have come to play. We aren’t good enough to just show up and win. I appreciate what our D is doing but I have found the play calling on offense to be boring and predictable.
I like Harbaugh going for it on 4th and 6 though, I just didn’t like the call.
If you’re wondering why Ginn was getting so many throws his way this game answers it–our receivers get no separation from the coverage. Ginn can’t catch, but he can at least get open…….
It may take a hail mary and 3 Our Fathers to win this game. Hawks look like they want it more. Our receivers/ passing game not very effective. Where is Morgan?
Oh yeah we needed him in on the play with 45 point lead
I can’t believe the consecutive drops on those passes. V Fucking D can’t get his feet in bounds, again, and Crabs follows that with a drop. And another VD drop that would have been a 1st down deep in Seattle territory.
VD has to go. He needs to pull his head out of his ass. Or he needs to just block.
Nice throw by Alex to Crabs to start the 2nd half…
Yeah it’s a weakness alright
Nice play Alex to make sumthin’ outta nothin’
But we have to waste a TO on 4th dn. Shitty coaching and generalship by our QB.
Calling the TO on 4th down is on the coaches. Ubnless there’s a designed play that they had ready for 4th down. Which they didin’t.
Great play on both ends there by Alex and VD.
Seattle was holding to boot…
Touchdown Niners!
TD Frank! Great opening drive to start the 3rd Q.
Excellent play by Alex and VD in particular…
Damn. VERY sweet drive there. Need a quick 3 and out to fuck with these guys.
We got the three and out!
Of course, VD has a great drive, and he GOT HIS FEET DOWN!
Dennis, is on his best behavior, and Twin runs away?
I guess the Romo injury is balancing the scales?
They really bring out the best in each other, huh?
It’s Christmas for Denny the Grinch. When I see nice play from Alex…
And what happened then…?
Well…in Who-ville they say
That the (Denny) the Grinch’s small heart
Grew three sizes that day!
The stuff of legends
Good runback and great field position.. Lets get some more points up there.
Late throw in the end zone by Alex. Lucky it wasn’t picked off.
He elevates, and that’s a TD.
3rd and goal and we run a draw to Hunter?
That’s Harbaugh’s faith, or lack thereof in his quarterback.
Jimbo is the Grinch, not I said the Cat in the Hat.
Wow. Carroll gives the O another shot, and we don’t take it.
Didn’t like that call.. C’mon D, stop them.
Harbaugh gets a little too cute for his own good.
Got the lead, though. Another 3 and out for the D, and we’re good.
You called it again Chuck..
Bottom line: another 3rd dn red and zone FAILURE. We came into today ranked 30th and 31st respectively in both categories. It’s not all Alex’s fault, but he’s got a big in hand it…
How bout that Kyle Williams? Who was it again that scouted him at ASU and the Senior Bowl and said he would be a play maker?
And the Grinch, with his grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow,
Stood puzzling and puzzling: “How could it be so?
It came without ribbons! It came without tags!
“It came without packages, boxes or bags!”
And he puzzled three hours, `till his puzzler was sore.
Then the Grinch thought of something he hadn’t before!
“Maybe Christmas,” he thought, “doesn’t come from a store.
“Maybe Christmas…perhaps…means a little bit more!”
Kids a stud.. Fast too..
I have to be honest, I always get a little teary-eyed at scene.
I just knew the Grinch had to be a Fredrick P. Softie at heart.
Alex had like 15 seconds there to check down. At least we got a first down.
That’s twice that Kendall Hunter has been tackled by snipes.
I guess he was the lone guy who found them on that 8th Grade camping trip.
Be honest, who here got suckered in on snipe hunting?
Chuck? You have better luck at the whorehouse than nailing one of those…
Still can’t get it in the EZ, terrible.
ANOTHER 3rd dn failure. When Alex rolls right, you can just forget it.
Green Akers just set the FG record for most in the year. If I were the Niners, I’d keep that quiet.
Yeah, that’s one record you don’t really want.
We have to get better in the red zone next year.
I have an idea on how to fix that problem.
Paging Peyton Manning. Peyton Manning white 49er courtesy phone please.
It ain’t going to happen. I have more chance of being the next pope, and I’m not Catholic.
But PLEASE tell me you wish it would happen.
And I know it’s a long shot (as of now given his medical uncertainty) but with cap space and Harbaugh as our coach, it’s not as big a stretch as believing in Santa Claus.
Who is real by the way…
Denny, do you ever spend a second considering the other end of the play or are you just so simple that all you can process is what you see on your tv screen? We have NOBODY getting any separation out there. When he misses the throw, that’s fair game. But that isn’t what’s happening most of the time. Again, there’s a reason Ginn was getting so many throws— he was the only fucking guy open
Flav, have you ever heard the term, “throwing the receiver open?”
Steve Young talks about it all the time. Talks about Alex’s lack of initiative to make that play. Alex has done a great job of not turning the ball over. But he doesn’t make enough plays. Sometimes a QB needs to throw caution into the wind and take a chance. Alex like to play it close to the vest.
I’d like to play him at Texas Hold ‘Em. I know he doesn’t have the guts to bluff.
He’s another Phil Hellmuth incarnate (minus the Championships) Fold away…
Aldon Smith is a fucking beast!
That guy is a fucking beast
Fine time to block our first punt of the year. If Pete Carroll fucks up this situation…
Lucca Brasi is coming to see him…
Never mind. TD Beast. I told ya he was gonna score today.
Put everything on your defense and ST, eventually, there going to make a mistake. That’s the price of playing for field goals and leaving teams within one score.
Gut check time for Smith and the offense.
Well, it’s setup for an Alex comeback…
Hey, Michael Robinson finally made a play for us. Dickhead.
What a play by Crabs.
What a fucking pass and catch on second and a mile….
Now that’s what I’m talkin’ bout. Alex took a shot down field. Great throw.
Not a bad catch by Crabs either…
Still playing for FGs. And lots of time on the board even if we make it. Don’t like the strategy.
Don’t like the strategy? We have Alex Smith at QB. That’s SOP General Patton.
3rd and 6 and we run Frank.
You guys tell me if that would happen if we had Peyton Manning at QB?
No fucking faith in our QB. Playing for FGs ain’t gonna beat the Saints at the ‘Stick.
Seattle only needs to play for the FG to win. Will the 49ers go to the prevent defense and give it to them, or will Fangio bring some pressure?
Disgusting ad. Was it necessary for the dude to be holding an assault rifle? That was bush league. That’s a fucking Taliban ad. Horrible.
Funny, my daughter said the same thing. Why the weapon>?
Too much time for Tavaris to throw. Let them to the 45 easily, now with two minutes they only need to get about 25 yards for the game winning FG.
Big play coming up.
Sometimes, it’s better to be lucky than good.
We’ve been lucky quite a bit this year. Luck usually doesn’t win playoff games,
quarterbacks do. Quarterbacks who play to win.
I thought we sucked on 3rd downs. The Jets were 4 fer 21 today vs the Giants.
Franchise my ass. I was on the wrong end of that contest. I had the J-E-T-S, Jets Jets Jets!
Justin Smith with the strip again! It’s Philly all over.
Really looking forward to this fucking handshake …
WHAT’S YOUR DEAL? LMAO.
Grant has filled in nicely.
Grant has been unbelievable.
Hope we have knocked them out of any playoff possibility. Never have like the dirty birds.
Big mistake by Forsett there.
4th down.
Survived another one.
Larry Grant never gave up on that play and knocked it out… Cheers fellas!
Merry Christmas to you all, I’m off to my folks house for some festivities..
And beer 🙂
Merry Christmas everyone
Nice pass by TJ on that 4th dn. Tavaris sucks! Pete Carroll needs an appt. with the Iceman for his decision to make him his QB. And that 3rd dn call at the 1 should be punishable by the death penalty in all 50 states and the Bahamas.
Fuckin’ A. A win in there is a win. Larry Grant is a beast. As much as I get pissed at VD, he made the plays when it mattered. Same with Crabs. He made the clutch catch to get the game winning field goal. The D is better and better. Just wait til Willis comes back.
We’re 12-3, we just won a tough division gm on the road and Denny still finds a way to take a shot at Smith. Denny, you’ve reached cartoon status around here in terms of people laughing at you. You are worse than your Chief-loving mother. You’re both fucking traitors to the team…
This won by tough guys: Grant, Gore, Hunter, Miller, Bowman, Justin, Aldon, Crabs, Davis ,and the toughest QB in football. Not pretty, like I said- tough play from tough men..
And a pretty tough kicker, too.
Merry Christmas fellow fans!
Wheew, that was a close one. 12-3!
Score differential was two points, 19-17. I had 20-10 a 10 point spread or 8 points differential = 20-19= 1; 17-10=7. 7+1=8.
How do other folks figure this?
Cheers my friends!
“Bold prediction for the day: not only does “Beast Mode” score the 1st rushing TD vs our D this yr, he also goes for 100+ yds.”
Beast: 21 for 107 and a TD.
Even a blind horse finds a sugar cube once in awhile…
Here’s a sugar cube for ya: Gore and Hunter combined for 156 yards. Want another?
Final score 19-17.
And a lump of coal: Del Mar 3-12 in the reality league
Yeeehaw!
3-12 my predictions might be
But I see another try, when the Saints try our luck
I gaze into my crystal ball, and what do I see?
Alex of course, and boy does he suck!
LOL.
You my friend are very consistent ( and I luv ya for it)
