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.
Forty Niners 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
