I’m sure you guys don’t remember that old Woody Allen movie that had Gene Wilder drinking Woolite at the end of it. Not sure how these guys tied us at out house and then proceed to lose in their house to the lowly Jets, but that’s football. Some teams match up well with others, some just get your number that day.
And, seeing as that last Ram game very well may be the last start of Alex Smith’s 49er career, at least he went out on a good note. His last throw was a TD to Michael Crabtree, and his last game and 1/3 he was 25-27 for 304 yards and 4 TDs. Anyhow, I’m not here to bury Alex, but to praise him. Or is it the other way around?
This does however, for all intents and purposes, appear to be the start of the Colin Kaepernick era no matter what Jim Harbaugh says. My thought is the Niners come out and try their new QB out and go a little more pass happy. Some of this is due to Kendall Hunter being out, but some of this is due to just getting the kid some more work. They need to get Cappy up to speed for the playoffs and we have 5 games to get this right.
I hope this isn’t going to be as crappy as the last Ram game, but I seriously don’t think the Niners let this one get away.
Nope. No running game today.
Not much blocking for it either.
Can’t pass, can’t run. How did the Jets crush these giys?
Play calling sucks. Would have rolled Kap out on first and/or second down to set things up…great 3rd dn conversion. We needed that.
Our offensive line is having its worst game of the year today.
Kaep bails us out on third down, but you can’t do that on every single set of downs.
Nice stick thereby Cappy.
Fuck this blocking. This is a safety.
Safety. Niners = back to the ‘who are we?’ Mystery train again
What was the point of putting Kaep in there for this ridiculous play calling?
With this pass rush, where are the screens?
Slants hitting, too. Use some. Stretch the field once or twice anyway. They’re loading up on the run, like ever.
We have a report Jimmy Raye is in da booth
Lqtm..
Terrible play by Kap, but the O line just sucks today
We got fucked on that sfety call. The ball landed OB passed the LOS.
Horrible coaching on both sides. Just like our last meeting. Jimbo and Fisher bring out the worst in each other…
Rams have 24 yards rushing. We have 61
Son of a bitch. Great punt. Here comes another safety…
Throw deep on first down goddammit!
why didn’t that safety get reviewed? I thought all scoring plays get reviewed……
Gore now has 1 carry for 23, 12 more carries for just 17 yards.
Nice slant just like NF ordered.
They finally got me patched through to Roman. LOL
That was not a safety,but maybe we deserved it anyway.OL sucks donkey balls today.
There you go. Great throw and catch to get us some breathing room…
Fucking penalties!!
2 good games -wins- followed by a stinker. This is another stinker so far
That was a gutsy call and a pretty throw over the DB.
Has there been a Vernon Davis sighting today?
One catch, six yards.
he’s blocking?
Alex doesn’t make that throw to Crabtree let alone attempt it.
that’s true my friend
Penalty frenzy today.
That was his best throw today( to Crabs).and gives a C- for the quarter. It would be a D but even though the play that resulted in the safety was awful, it was also an awful call.
Gift penalty. Annnnd we burn one.
SMith listening to the plays the way all QB’s (who aren’t protesting something) listen to plays–by putting the helmet up next to his ear like a phone.
Twin, you get an F for your posts today.
lol
I’ve been very generous with the grades.You get an F- for your grade on my posts.
We got a free 15 yds on that penalty. The NFL has turned into one giant vagina when it comes to protecting the QB. It’s fucking shameful. The game sucks now thanks to Goodell and his safety protocol. Fuck player safety. Hit somebody!!!
My 28 point prediction and over bet may have been overly optimistic. Probably regret giving up the points too.
Another beautiful pass, but coming back I think.
No! Offside on that one.
Another great throw to Crabtree. Huge conversion on 3rd down. Keep the chains moving…
Starting to click here.
Rams saw that one coming.
And as i say that . . .
Another slant, another first down!
The slant pass has been our best weapon today.
Finnegan’s a punk.
We just cannot run inside on this team, today, at least.
Rams D is on top of everything Run
99.5 yard drive. Not bad.
Shit. We are one Ram TD and 2-pointer from another fucking tie, here.
Now that was a fine drive but it would have been nice to get 7.
the o-line just doesn’t seem to be getting it done. early start?
At least the offense looked alive on that drive. Get a 3 and out and get some momentum going.
Yeah but Kap is doing it all with his arm. No running game at all.
Gore at 1 for 23, 16 more carries for just another 20 yards.
Kappy having an Alexly efficient day, 17 of 25, 169 yards, no big mistakes.
The last drive pushed him up to a C+, a far better grade than Smith would have been given here..Efficent, as you say, but 10 points…meh.
A drive to run out out clock lifts him to a B. That’s an extremely fair mark.
The real problem here is not Kap vs. Alex today – it’s no rushing yardage since Gore’s one long run. This offense starts with the power run. Without it, it’s tough sledding.
We could have used Hunter today, to attack this defense at the edges. Nothing doing up the middle.
Shitty coverage and tackling by Bowman. Inexcusable to give up that 3rd and long.
LMJames must fumble every snap in practice
yep hope they activate him. Use Jacobs more too
Net yardage minus penalties = 150 today
It’s actually 160 total net yards
No fake punts today? Fisher must have left his testicles in the locker room.
Well here comes your game. Run four minutes and change off the clock and win, or not.
Might see A.J. Jenkins here out of necessity with Mario hurt.
He;’s hurt?
Yep. Out with a shoulder injury.
This looks like one of our old 10:00 AM starts. Zombie-like in every facet of the game.
Well that’s one way to get some rush yards.
This game reminds of the one in Houston back in 71.The camera pans to the stands and shows a fan flipping the bird.
Ouch. Disaster started with the low snap. Gotta just eat that one instead of trying to make something out of nothing.
ouch that hurts
WTF? Stupid, stupid, stupid play.
Um….F?
Major fail there. He;s sitting on his head, so that’s no TD.
??
Fuck
WTF WAS THAT?????
Fucking unreal to call that play down there…
Goodwin is still snapping it low several times a quarter. that one was way too low, screwed up the flow of the play, then Kappy tried to make something out of nothing, and paid for it.
Ginn WTF
Fucking ridiculously idiotic call topped by an even more preposterous execution by Kap. I’m warming up the firing squad right now…
Stupid fucking college play had no chance anyway. Fall on the ball, Ginn. Ginn sits on his head. That better be 1st and goal.
Ginn is sitting on his head. Why the fuck have replay if you don;t get it right?
Jimbo, Kap, Ginn- all get Fs on that cluster fuck.
Fuck. Here we go again.
Great. All we need to do is for Ginn to fumble the kickoff.
All we need now is a no score OT.
cappy responsible for 8 points. let the debate rage.
Fuck. Terrible package call by Fangio. Willis lacks in pass coverage. Need an extra DB in there.
Harbaugh thinks he can run these fucking trick plays at the worst possible time.
Watch the onsuides
Who calls that play in the end zone except Hostler?
Take that page of the playbook and burn that mother.
I can’t believe somebody put that on the call sheet for “backed up in the endzone.”
Salnts and more slant.
Another very nice pass to Crabs.
So if we end up with 2 ties against.the Rams,can they just give both teams 1 win? Fuck this Shit.
Redemption!
Kappy is our running game today.
Kap = AAA+
How bout that shit!!!!!!! Go Kap Go!!!!
Or a scramblr…
wow! What a run. If Alex Smith is a ferris wheel, Kap is a roller coaster……
That offsets the “F” on the TD he gave them with an “A”.
Geez i guarantee Smith would never run for 50.This should seal atleast the FG and get outta here.
Now we have to score. And not leave too much time. Preferably WITHOUT putting it on Akers’ suddenly shaky foot.
Delanie “Brick Hands” Walker strikes again.
yes
Fucking Walker flat out dropped a TD
Shit. Walker, I swear to Dog…
Walker wants to blow the game for us.
That ball was on the fucking money.. Delanie Walker sucks. And now he gets called for holding. I want his head on a pike.
Goddamn it, this is now a 40-yarder by Akers from here. Walker, good luck with your new team next year.
What the fuck, Walker? Where the fuck is VD?
exactly, Walker
Here’s a good spot for that read option.
And another middle run that doesn’t work. WTFuck!!!
Slant in the middle
33-yard try. time to pray to the Flying Spaghetti monster.
We are trying our best to lose this fucking game. Extra fucking practice for everyone this week.
And Kap runs OB. Fucking mistake. Jesus H. Christ we’re fucking mooks today.
