We are getting to the crux of the season here. The Niners can hit these playoffs anywhere from the 1 seed to on down to the outside looking in. I don’t see either happening, but winning the West is the main goal. Green Bay has a little easier time of it, and they may very well pass the Niners for the 2 seed. Seattle likely wins as well tomorrow, so the Seahawks game next week could very well determine the west should the Niners lose tomorrow. I think they win, for some crazy reason. I think Kappy has a big game, and I think the defense does well enough to slow Brady and co.
I hope these guys worked on using the speed they suddenly have out there since AJ and LMJ look to get a lot more field time with Hunter, KW, and Manningham out. I would love to see more screens and passes to the flat to give these guys the ball with some green around them. If NE plays it like Miami and St Louis did, the slants will be there. Take a few shots with Randy and AJ, use the speed. Defensively? Well, the hope is we don’t start slow, as NE can jump on you pretty fast and throw up a 21 spot in short order. That being said, how is a good question. The Niners worked over GB pretty good with their base D. They didn’t do as well vs Minn and the Giants. They will likely have to throw some blitzes in despite the risk of getting burned.
The ultra conservative shit through the 4th quarter was way uncalled for. The O had 12 plays while the D gave up 4 TDs. That’s just fucked up.
But, to win in NE in December is aa pretty big deal. Especially when we gave away 20 points.
They got very lucky after leaving 17 points in 1st half and thinking they could relax in 2nd.
Who called for a 7 point spread.? I’ll check
LaMichael’s return really was the catalyst. Crazy-ass game.
I had 10.
Rt had 11- OR- 9 so go figure. No one had 7. Chuck was more optimistic than most
Wow. Giants are out of the playoffs as of now.
no shit ? omg that’s awesome news !
wow, huge win. When was the last drive they actually got a first down? 8? 9? Pathetic. Brady throws the ball 65 times for 443? Ha, nice 68.9 QB rating, d-bag.
Yep pretty damn good call
that was one of the weirdest games I’ve ever seen……..
Well, whoever was responsible for stopping the bleeding, I’m glad they pulled it off. It is a big deal to beat the Pats on the road while they were so hot.
I think that will be the end of the why the QB switch talk, too.
The playoffs will decide that, it’s why the switch was made if you pay attention.Colin is making a bad decision look good so far,though.
The playoffs wont decide it. Its done, Alex is history and there is no question about it. The Niners can score at will with Kap, that is the end of the conversation.
Okay Man I wanna hear yer excuse fer not being with us during da game. Fess up bro…
Pay attention- I’m not sayiing KJap will not berthe QB- I’m saying his mistakes will kill us in the postseason-and the move was made for him to give us better chance there. 8 fumbles, only one lost.
Gee, I seem to recall remarking on Kap’s vet move looking the defender off on the TD to Walker, I recall picking us to win by throwing deep, and reitereating that after the TD to Moss. I also recall not calling Kap out on the fumbles- which Harbaugh acknowledged were Kap’s fault.Fuck off.
Yep. Our coaching sucks tho
They are 10-3 you moron.
They blew a 28 point lead you moron. Let me check…Yep that’s on the coaching. You know Bo?
My question now is where the F has LMJ been all season? Don’t let Ted Ginn get near a damn punt for the rest of the year. Or, put him in, but tie his hands and feet. That way, there’s only a small chance the ball hits him…
Behind Hunter . . .
You guys can go back and check the ledger. WTF did I say when Kirk Cousins was drafted? I pulled the old Charlie Sheen, “Winning!!!” I watched his entire career at Mich. St. I know a winner when I see one.
Guess who just woke up? That’s right, Frank the Cat! What’s on Frank’s menu for tonight? Looks like Frank’s in store for some savory salmon tonight. Winning!!!
You’re determined to harm that cat, aren’t you? I’ll try again.

You jinxed me with all the feline UTI talk. Frank peed on my bathroom rug the other day.
Guess who’s the one who’s pissed off? I can’t go there. I love Frank like he’s my first born male child. Frank’s my little baby. I can’t say no…
Frank wants to piss on the rug, fine. Please don’t tell us You Did, Not Good…
I can breathe now.. That was a fucking anxiety attack that didn’t have to happen.
The media should be raking Harbaugh over the coals. They abandoned the first half D approach that bottled up Brady, and as a result, totally collapsed a sure win into an unbelievable nail biter. Not to mention the horrific offensive play calling that kept the wraps on the passing game, and gassed our defense with three and outs in the second half.. There has to be a total re-evaluation of that second half Niner coaching. It sucked…
As far as game strategy, they played it as they always do.
But they aren’t playing Brady every week. What works against most won’t cut it against the top QBs
Again, this is how Jimbo coaches, always has. Suddenly it’s an issue, 30+ games in?
Yes that’s right, correct. Look, we win an NFC title game with this “JimBO” shit, I’m good. Otherwise, not.
Snarrk, They were without Smith in case you hadn’t heard, so yeah, they weren’t doing the same shit as in the first half.
Conservative with a young QB on a wet field on the road when the other team has all the MOMENTUM>..smart coaching.
They did not have the momentum until we went conservative, however.
GG that’s what worries me too= the conservative O and D on taking a lead, even a small one. I was wrong on this game score and will be happy to be wrong again IF we win the NFC title game

They’d better realize that they nearly gave it away. I’m sure they do, but the media is going to cream all over Harbaugh since he got the win. They went soft on D, and completely shriveled up on offense. Should not have gotten that close. But the O gave away a shitload of points as well.
Hard to believe Kappy only threw 25 (14 completions) times for 216. 180 on the ground though.
For all the heat ST have been getting (rightly so), the fake punt and the LMJ KR were big deals. Akers with another miss? Sure the conditions sucked, but he pushed it. It had none chance.
Snarkk, LMJ was horrible in punt returns in the preseason. GInn ain’t going anywhere.
“Let the Bells Ring out for Christmas” is a pretty good one. I’ll find more if you want.
The San Francisco Forty Niners just beat the defending Super Bowl Champions on National Network Television. On their field in the freezing rain.
And it’s not even the playoffs yet.
Maybe Heart would be better?
Well, the defending AFC champs, but yer on a roll. Go with it . . .
Just wrongo again, Chuck. Missed it by that much. What the hell, I’m going to post Heart and you delete me I won’t object.
I plan on having a very fun night before the next snowstorm hits.
Enjoy yerself RT and know we be doin’ the same out here…
Well, I know, but that was pre-season, long time ago. Ginn has totally sucked pole the last coupla games as a punt returner. Bad decisions. I don’t want another playoff game lost because of bad punt returning. Either fair catch it, or let it go, in those critical situations in a close game…
Ginn was abysmal Chuck.
The coconut internet was at its worst today and I missed the LMJ kick return- when did that happen? After the last Pats TD?
Yes. NE had tied the score, and they kicked it to the left corner of the end zone, 4 yards deep. LMJ returned it 62 yards up the left sideline. If he had broken the last tackle he would have been gone.
I gotta see this then
A lot of second guessing. What is Harbaugh and Co’s record since they arrived???

we win !
lucky ? bad coaching ?
we beat new england , at new england in december ! imo we’re the better team !
Hell yeah
Test
Lucky? No. Better team? Yes by far, despite the conservative play calling both sides of the ball which was the percentage play. Kap can score at will, he scored twice with a single play. You guys that doubted why Alex was replaced were wrong and that is just a plain fact. Kap is simply a better QB.
Harbaugh made the right, gutsy, choice no question
Twin says we need to see Kap in the play offs to see if the switch was justified. Bullshit, show me all the stats you like, Kap is a more dynamic and better QB period. Regardless of what the team does in the play offs, Kap has already more than justified his starting position. The subject is closed. The only question left is where will Alex play next year?
Lingerie Football League ?
Lol
Naw he’s better than that but I think Man is right- it’s a done deal already, Fuck Kap leads these guys to a hugh lead and retakes it in NE weather, beats Brady, the refs and the home crowd?
Case closed, agree
Hey Alton,The Niners are.10-3-1 your the “Moron” get your shit right or STFU!!!!
you scream like a child. Grow up
Smith’s going to AZ if it’s up to him.
Yeah
Gotta question fer our pigskin prognosticators: Are these games “too big” fer Kaepernick? Or too small?
I answer = “Too Small”. That was proven tonight, Capice? Yeah fer the coaches ‘too damn big’ meybe. Hence the Bo-esque ‘play not to lose’ shit.
But the Kap is thriving in the Schembechler schemes so whadda I know? I know this: Kap has bigger balls than BO. Maybe JimBO already knows this?
Hope so.
Nothing like waking up at a quarter past two with your head in some chocolate birthday cake to put a “Kap” on your evening. Nothing says dedication more than red sprinkles stuck on your eyebrows. Frank, Al and myself would like to wish you a….
