Game Day 14 – Crunch Time

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.

    Did you see that great stop by our D at the goal line?
    It was inspired by Alex Smith cheerleading. But when push comes to shove, Alex sucks. Even on the sidelines. TD Mr. Prez.

    15 minutes left. Never let a guy like this get off the mat when you have him down. Now we REALLY need to move and score on offense, just to give the D a rest.

    We’ve got to up our play calling on this possession.

    Justin Smith is out. Tried to make adjustments. I don’t agree, but it’s still 31-17.

    14 pt. lead with a quarter to go. If we blow this lead, we deserve to smoke pole for the rest of the year.

    Throw was too high there. lucky something bad did not happen.

  7. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Wow. LMJ didn’t rrun that route very well. We’re pissing this away for a 2nd time.

  8. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Terrible play by James. We are officially in trouble here.

    That series was just fucking awful. Exactly what they didn’t need. Getting sick of Harbaugh’s hang on to win bullshit. Although it works better when he QB isn’t Brady

  10. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    YEah, problem is it should be 51-17. They are going deep 1st play here. Got to go back to the pressure D.

  11. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Our defense is tired, Brady is in a rhythm, and they have momentum. We need a big play on defense now. No more zone.

    c’mon 9ers we need a couple more plays !

    Man D and pressure, please!

  14. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Hernandez is still a little jittery from Dashon’s hit.

  15. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    4th and 2… Come on baby!

  16. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Nice play by Tarell.

    Oh Ye of Little Faith. You never watched Druckeniller play for the Niners.

    • Del Mar Dennis's avatar Del Mar Dennis says:

      Not only did I watch Jim Druckenmiller play, but I used his name to grab a table at the House of Prime Rib in SF on Van Ness Ave. It pays to look like a somebody even when you’re not.

  18. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Better play by Brady.

  19. NoFear49er's avatar NoFear49er says:

    Chrissakes, where was the corner?

    Great play call by the Pats.. Stay man, please.
