After a pretty quiet week, Kevin (punch me in the throat) Gilbride decided to whine about Justin Smith’s apparent murderous holding infractions while playing defensive tackle. Disregarding the obvious notion that DTs are usually the ones behing held, Jim Harbaugh fired back his own incendiary comments, calling the claims, well incendiary. Thing is, DTs hold. They all do it. Smith will hold 2 guys if it’ll give Willis a clean path to a ball carrier. Since this is something that is never called, or even looked for, you have to wonder what the fuck Gilbride is squalking about. Although you have to take into accoun\t Tom Coughlin’s comments that he’s curious as to why his team comes in as the underdog.
Really, Tom? You are on the road against a team with a better record than you? And you are going to play the ‘poor us’ card? Maybe if you had beaten the Iggles, people would take you more seriously. If anything the Giants have to be one of the most whining teams in the history of football. And it starts with Coughlin. He’s constantly whining to the refs, the media, his coaches, his players, his grandma, and anyone else within earshot. Time for a beat-down. As crappy as the Giants have looked, I don’t think they play as shitty as they did against the Browns or Cowboys. This will be a tough game, one that means a lot more to NY than the Niners, but in the end, the Niners prevail, 28-20.
SHout out to the SF Giants and their quest for the World Series title.
Nice catch by Williams there.
Ditto . . .
Alex is on fire.
A Moss sighting!!!!
botched play with Gore
Come on Green Akers
Well, we’ll see as the game progresses but the 2 Kappy plays have twarted good drives..
agreed
If it was on our side of the field I can the logic in handing to Gore to set up later plays for Kappy, but not in those situations.
Sorry. Harbaugh is turning this into Stanford football part deux. I’ll be quite honest. it’s difficult for me to like and accept this type of football. I don’t like how the game has chanced recently, not just with Jimbo, but with the league in general. I loved football so much more the way it was played back in 1984. I know. I have a problem with letting go with the past. It’s something that my therapist and I have been working on for quite sometime. As you can see, we still haven’t found a solution.
Ooh, A 5-man front.
Pass rush and don’t give Eli time to throw.
D is on fire too
Ginn is starting to look more comfortable back there.
3 FGs already for Blair Walsh from the Vikings and more importantly, from my FF team. Blair is just one good goddamn kicker. That’s a fact of life. Blair? Facts of life? That’s another joke, son!
poor throw
Oops. A dead duck.
That sucker should’ve been grounded before it got off the ground. These aren’t the Buffalo Bills, baby. You can’t play that way.
Hope he shakes it off
I didn’t know it was already duck season. That was a lame duck pass from Alex.
Duck season! Wabbitt season! Duck season! Wabbitt season! Wabbitt season! Duck season! Fire!
That’s one more joke for ya, son. And a mighty good one if I don’t say so myself.
Way too much air on that one.
Culliver beat twice so far
Goldson covers so much ground, good to see the Niners playing the middle field tighter
