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.
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.
