This one appears to be another game that could be seen as a look-thru deal. The Niners have the Giants next week, and have to be gearing up for that one. I’m not really saying they looked past Minnesota, that was more of a scheme problem, but this one has the makings of a sleeper game that might sneak up on them. Ryan Fitzpatrick has done well at times, and has looked bad at times. Same with CJ Spiller and the running game. If you look at their opponents, though, you get a better idea. They’ve beaten bad teams (Cleve, Miami), and lost to NE (good) and the Jets (bad).
I don’t think Buffalo is that good, but Ryan is a good QB if you give him time as his league-leading 12 TDs attest. Pressure him and he throws picks, as his league-leading 7 picks shows. This game follows the formula of the Niners basic script. Stop the run, force the pass, pressure the QB, get some picks. Buff’s defense doesn’t appear to be all that. 100 points by the Jets and NE proves that. NE got 45 points in the 2nd half last week. I think tthe Niners won;t make the mistake of the Minn game, and come out focussing a little more on the run, and the mid range passing game as they did last week.
Still saying 28-10 Niners.
San Francisco 49ers Forever 
I haven’t watched any Buffalo games but seeing that they gave up 48 to the Jets is all I need to know about their defense. And 52 to NE? No NFL team should ever give up 50+ points. I am going to sit back and watch Alex re-capture his rightful spot atop Peyton in the bet between me and Dennis.
Still saying 41-6. The only way I see BUffalo scoring TD’s is if we sit back in a zone and fail to pressure the QB. Fangio can’t be thinking that, can he?
Pressure, Pressure, Pressure until the game is over……..
Jim Kelly and Thurman Thomas come out of retirement as Marv Levy comes out of the old folk’s home and it’s 1990 all over again. 27-24 as I shuffle off to Buffalo…
So Alex throws out the first pitch last night and the Giants take it up the ass. Is it any wonder? If I were Larry Baer I would sent out Johnnie LeMaster for the coin toss today to get back at that sorry POS.
Take off that Giants cap you no good motherfucking jinx!
Browns were up 14-0 over the Giants, now 14-7. Richardson said they could run on them last week and ran 15 yds for a TD.
inactives: Scott Tolzien, AJ Jenkins, LaMichael James, Trenton Robinson, Brandon Jacobs, Joe Looney, Ian Williams.
Our top three picks have yet to hit the field. They at least could activate Jenkins and sit Moss. At the very least there would be one less pouter out on the field.
Kirk Cousins comes in for the injured RG III and connects on a long TD pass. What did I say about that kid from Mich. St. when he was drafted? He was motherfucking Charlie Sheen — Winning!!!
I’m a worse jinx than Alex Smith. I give props to Cousins then he proceeds to throw 2 INTs on his next two possessions. Sorry about that, Chief.
Great pass by Alex to VD, wasted by the penalty.
Terrible coverage breakdown again on the return. they need to fix that.
coverage mugged to open large lane for return guy
Where the hell is everybody? Alex goes 3 and out to start the game and there’s no one here for me to laugh at. Lucky they caught that holding on the PR or we’d be down 7-0.
That;s on manningham and crabcakes
Niners running routes 2 yards short of 1st downs- twice
VD again. Pass was a little late but on target.
For a power running team, we really struggle in short yardage running.
yeah bad
Another failed RZ opportunity. Bring in our MVP.
Two tries and you settle for a FG after 2 and goal from the one? That is just not acceptable.
at least VD runs past the sticks
The Packers suck. Our W > them Week 1 isn’t looking that great.
Another coverage breakdown.
Gee. Wonder if B Jacobs coulda helped there? Wait, he’s still injured. Story of his career
Andrew Luck just pulled an Alex – he hung 30 on the Pack.
Next you’ll tell me you’d take Alex > Luck.
I wouldn’t go that far. And doubt Jimbo would either. Luck is going to be good for an awful lot of years.
Bowman ate that shit for lunch!
Crabs with a longer catch. Need to do more of that.
Our OL is DOMINATING their DL. Alex has all day to throw.
Did Mario Williams even suit up?
OMG. Crabs broke a tackle. Can he do that? Ah shit, never mind.
Fucking penalties are killing us…
Fucking penalties
3rd down and a couple of parsecs. Harbaugh will be cautious here.
THAT is why your punter is one of the top ten most valuable players on this team. Just completely flipped field position.
Did you not rank him ahead of Alex Smith?
Yeah, 7 vs. 9 IIRC. Guy should be in the HoF someday.
The O game plan of deeper passes and sweeps/slants is moving the ball. Too bad for all the penalties
And ST breakdowns, missed tackles, and trouble covering Stevie.
I kind of had a hunch this was not going to be a walkover. We had better not get cocky toady. This team is good enough to beat us if we keep effing up.
yep you called it
No flags, thank God.
We are DEFINITELY working on throwing long…
It’s great, finally
Williams amen!
Alex has 180 yards already – and without all the penalties it would be well over 200, before halftime. Not very often you see that.
Nice throw by Alex, nice catch Williams
Alex is 7 of 8, 180 yards, 1 TD – and had two more complete for over 60 more, brought back by penalties.
Fucking cunt with these penalties
Another penalty. Just a sloppy game by some guys.
fucking penalty on walker
Sweet run by Hunter to convert on 3rd and 12!
Dumb play by Manningham to juke and move backwards a yard. Just gotta put the head down there and take whats there.
Nice Kaep imitation by Alex.
Finally a penalty that isn’t on us.
Never expected Smith to hit so many long gainers,with his lack of throwing deep and always over throwing or to high to catch.Good game plan getting seperation for his WR and actually connecting on them.Some killer penalties though really killing drives.
He’s at 198 for the half, and it would be about 260 without two of those penalties.
Nice drive. We’re using up the remaining time in the half as well as moving the ball. Just hope we can end it with some points.
More than 3 hopefully
Down the field!!
Plenty of time, don’t get greedy. Take the shot if it’s there, otherwise work it down.
Not sure how many fellow rednecks I have here, but do yourself a favor and watch the highlights of the last lap at Talladega. That was something else.
Well the WildKap bit us in the ass there.
And that’s why this WildKap shit should remain in college.
This is the fucking NFL!
One QB on the field at ALL TIMES. Jesus H. Fucking Christ.
Fucking getting to cute with these calls .Kappy is still a fucking QB who you lay the lumber on hard.Killer Turnover before the half.
Announcer was wrong though – Kaep did not have the ball on the inside. It looked like he had it secure, and it was on the outside, the defender just jarred it out.
Got another chance… with 29 seconds.
What a gift getting the ball back.Hopefully they abandon the WildKap,and throw the freakin ball in the last 29 sec.
you called it Kat
wild and crazy shit here
Crabtree! 29 yd TD
Beautiful throw by Alex!
Those seven points might be huge later.
Thank you for taking my advice Niners!TD Crabby!!!!
Alex finishes his best first half passing ever – 12 of 15 for 237 and 2 TDs, and could easily have been 14/17 for 300ish. Just too many penalties on the O-line and Walker.
Anyone should be able to figure out that if Smith can hit Davis deep, the problem with the others is just getting on the same page- not a Smith defciency.
Timing is the issue I think.
He used to throw it to Antonio Bryant back in 2006 too. He just has not developed that kind of rapport with any of is WRs since.
Agree.
Speaking of WRs: Anyone seen Randy today? All this throwing, and he is MIA. Even Kyle got a deep shot.
Randy may be joining Braylon and Terrell in front of a TV soon if he does not get it going.
good point
Wow, that’s what Im talkin about, Alex is just lighting em up today. Just about everything is right on target. Just great to see.
yep good to see
They shouldn’t go away from the plays for Kappy, they add yet another dimension to what’s fast becoming, wait for it…. an EXCITING offense.
I would make sure Cappy has another chance today. I think he was pretty close to making that 1st down and I know he wants to try again. He’s a gamer.
yep
The key is, Alex has reached the level in this offense where he can throw the ball, even deep, and still not turn it over. Having the ball security AND the ability to score from anywhere on the field is pretty awesome. Now just eliminate the sloppy penalties and ST play and this would be a total rout.
yep that’s true and good
Pass rush time coming soon. Time to inflict pain. Sooner or later the Bills have to throw.
There we go!
Kickass QB destruction sack by Brooks!
Punt you mother fuckers.
Now, drive a stake into their hearts. Long drive for seven.
here we go…dang another penalty
Alex picked a good week to have a great game. He is negating the mistakes and sloppy play of a lot of his teammates. People say he cannot put the team on his back. But he is doing it today.
Yes he is and Kap even gets back in there
nice throw by Alex on 1st and 20, then Gore runs free. Beautiful.
This is Bill Walsh football. Great use Gore there
Nice dive by Gore, 3-TD lead.
Good to see that the Jets game was not a fluke!! Go Niners!!
Kap almost gets in then gore goes over the top: 7
Nice drive to put that Stake deeper in their hearts ….Grumpy!!
RT how did we do at the half? lol
17-3, you’re deadly accurate man
Alex Smith could throw for 500 yds and 5 TDs today for all I care. He still cost the SF Giants Game 1 of the NLDs by throwing out the ceremonial first pitch last night.
Once a loser, always a loser.
Not after today: after today, Alex’s career W-L record as a starter is 36-35. He’s finally a winner.
Deal with it man
baloney
Buffalo’s D just suck balls.No wonder were moving it like NE Patriots did to these chumps last week ,dropping 52 on them.They have no pass rush,play soft in the secondary as well,could easily drop 40 + on these chumps.
Harbaugh will likely call off the dogs first. Unlike Bellicheat.
I’d settle for things ending just like this, and get out of the game with no injuries.
For the love of Christ, stop asking for no injuries.
That’s when they always happen. Let the game flow…
Nice pick by Culliver – but he almost tried to lateral that shit. At his own 5-yard line. Thank God he didn’t, that could have given it right back.
Now Gore is just beating them into submission.
Alex is just 11 short of 300 yards today.
Moss on board
300 now for alex
No, that was after Moss. With the toss to Celek he is at 293.
Moss gets a bone.Whoopie.
He’s clearing out the middle for crab and VD, deek
Just toying with the Bills now.Even Dixon and Miller chewing up yards.
Celek even
Chuck’s MIA today. I guess he must be giving Maggie one helluva flea bath…
Drive is at six minutes and counting now.
Actually, seven minutes, and end of the quarter.
This has been a real killer for the Bills.
303 fer alex
What a drive.
There it is. 31-3 and 303 passing for Alex today.
another blow out against a NY team. Bring on the fucking Giants
Alex has a chance to make a major statement in that game next week. He’ll never be ‘truly elite’ in the eyes of the national media until he mops the floor with their precious Giants. I hope he does…
Denny, why don’t we all just acknowledge that Denver and SF both the the right QB?
naw that would make sense
Ha, so true. But he’ll never do it, he’ll hate Smith till the end. He already told us where this comes from. His mom loathed Steve Young. Till the end. Didn’t make sense then just as this doesn’t make sense now.
yup that’s it
Drive: 13 plays, 94 yards in 7:48.
Nearly EIGHT minutes, length of the field.
That, Gentlemen, was offensive football at it’s ass-kicking finest.
100% correct. Harbaugh might throttle it back on O now, class
VD and Crabs both over 100 receiving today.
Gore at 96 rushing.
Alex’s QBR for the day is maxed out at the mathematical limit of 158.3
When did we last have 500 yards total offense in a game? Garcia era or Young?
I dunno but Troy Smith 356 against the Rams in ’10 = coach killer
luckily the coach he killed was Singletron
LOL… Alex is mad because he did not get the first down running, leading by 28.
He is having fun out there today, doesn’t want it to end.
LMAO… and he runs it on 4th down…
Everything’s working
Real smart call there,with the Smith bootleg.Everyone bunched in tight,plenty of.daylight on the outside.
TD, Kappy.
Kap getting all the work now TD !
552 yards combined rushing and passing today so far.
Damm the Kapernatior explodes thru the line as the Bills say “Aloha means goodbye”.
It’s gonna always drag alex’s numbers a bit, but this “Kappy” thing is outstanding. Defenses can’t stop it
Remember, penalties cost Alex 60 yards earlier too.
Without checking the scores, I’m in line to take home my 2nd straight win in Phil’s “guess the score” game, right?
lemme check
Right Flav you da winnah again. How’s Manning doing, haha
