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.
Forty Niners Forever 
Seriously. One of you guys tell me again how we wouldn’t be better off with Peyton Manning at QB. You fucking mooks.
You’ve been anxiously awaiting a bad game from Alex, Denny. Pathetic.
No. What’s really pathetic are you fans who think we’re better off with Alex than Manning.
4th and 15 and Alex throw an 8 yd out to VD. Manning woulda at least hit sticks.
Alex has had a terrible game and we have “fans” like the Bug Boy gloating about it.
This is not something their D is doing, it’s self inflicted
Mostly, that’s true.
WTF kind of call was that on 1st dn? Alex on an option? If you’re gonna play that shit, put in Kaep. this game’s on Harbaugh just as much as it’s on Alex.
I told Moss would show up today.
If I didn’t know any better, I coulda sworn that was Aubrey Huff at QB for the Niners.
All about Alex, Crabby. What happened to “Alex was awesome and carried the team”?
Week to week, now is it?
Shit. It’s an L against the Super Bowl Champions. Embarassment on national TV, but no real harm done.
Being bad today hardly negates his good work, Do you understand this game at all?
I don’t know, Crabby. Do you have a clue?
No huddle, speed up offenses where 3-4 receivers shuffle in and out on every play, mixed in the Big Bear packages. Tell us about it. Seriously. Your Dad knew as much about football as any man, and I suspect behind Crabby you do, too.
I understand that all QBs have bad games and that doesn’t negate the good ones. I’m certainly not so stupid as to think that it does.
Christian Ponder looked like a Rook today against Shanny’s medicore at best D.
He’s in his 2nd year, and his first year as a starter.
Alex has been awful and some horrible decisions on Kappy have been nearly as damaging.
playcalling for Kap has not been good IMO
pressure worked again
3 plays in a row for Kap?
4
Looks like we did something right, we knocked out Victor Cruz. If I were the DC, I’d have a bounty out on every offensive player. That makes four consecutive plays for Kaep to end the 3rd quarter.
Don’t say a word. Don’t say a goddamn word.
ST has given up big yds all season too
Kappy should be sitting with a clipboard and learning. His over use today is hardly a main reason for the drubbing but it’s part of it. It definitely cost points early. But we’ll come out of this 4-2 and in fine shape towatds my 11-5 call.
If the intent is to use Kap in spot situations why have him keep handing off? Giants are expecting a run from Kap or RB anyway. When he threw he had success. They should let him throw then use the run.
So you agree with me that Harbaugh’s a fucking mook for taking out Alex?
Fine shape? We’re goddamn Oklahoma playing a goddamn two QB system in the NFL. This isn’t Norman. Norman was Billy Crystal’s friend from “City Slickers.” “I made a cow.”
Alex, Harbaugh and the entire Niner squad are having a cow today.
Moooooooowwww. Farms in Berkeley?
I think Alex was hot and taking him out broke that somewhat.
I also think that if they are going to put Kap in, put him in a position to win, handing off to a RB is not fooling anyone because they expect a run anyway.
good lord
we need hurry up 4 min drill
getting beat both sides of the ball again, Vikings 2.0
Now the G-Men are just running roughshod over our defense.
I’m embarrassed.
Now our defensive front seven is getting their ass kicked.
Not our day today.
This does not bode well for being considered an elite team in the NFL. Two quality teams and we lose to them!! This was to show the Iners could keep up with a quality team. Not so. Until the 49ers beat quality team with a winning record, I just dont seeing them go very far in the playoffs.
yeah, big let down today.
It’s incredibly ignorant for any observer to be trashing Alex in general for one awful game- that I’ve acknowledged repeatedly. Unlike RT and Denny, I’m honest about what transpires. He’s been terrible, and he ain’t alone…
Smith stunk today, as did the rest of the team, and now a short week to Seattle.
All about Alex, Crabby, as always. How many points did my Niners offense put on the board today?
How many times do I have to say he was awful, moron?
Who is generally considered to be the playmaker, passer, and leader of an offense?
Alex’s QBR was at 30 in the first half, before the medium completion to Moss.
30 is not bad. It’s bench time.
The only stats I care about are the points on the board at the end of the day. How many did the Niners offense put on the board today?
He’s not losing his job over one game. Where do you come up with this shit? We were crap in every phase and have some serious work to do but if you think it’s all on Smith you’re denying sane people needed air space…
How many plays today was Kappy the QB and Alex on the bench? When the game was on the line, I mean.
