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.

      Grump, I learned that axiom when I was six-years-old and won my first dollar bet vs my uncle John, who’s a priest, when USC beat ND. Something about Catholics always betting on the Irish. Not this baptized, confirmed and bible-toting who knows Revelations by heart SOB.

  5. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat says:

    How about Goldson!!! I called it..His dreadlocks flying making a play!!! Ohh yeah TD Niners!!! Frank the cat!!!

  6. rob's avatar rob says:

    who predicted the niners win big ?!

  7. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Whitner makes a play like that just about every game. The unsung hero of the defense.

  8. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    I expect Brady to start slinging it now. Time for good coverage, and some pass rush.

  9. B's avatar B says:

    That is just a bullshit call

  10. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    Another turnover!

  11. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Hit on Hernandez the play before caused him to have alligator arms.

  12. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    TD Niners!! Great throw Keap!

  13. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    THAT is why Harbaugh put Kappy in.

  14. B's avatar B says:

    Beautiful grab by the crab

  15. rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

    This time Kappy was right on the money. Did I mention I love this offense?
    Wait till it’s warmer and Frank can play a bunch.

  16. rob's avatar rob says:

    are we up 31-3 ???

  17. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Or another utnover! THis defense is relentless tonight. Aldon is showing it again.

  18. rob's avatar rob says:

    crabs rules !

  19. gropo's avatar gropo says:

    Humiliation!

  20. snarkk's avatar snarkk says:

    If tonite is any indicator, and I think it is, if we don’t cough up two special team fumbles last year’s title game with the NYG, the Niners would now be sporting a 6th Lombardi trophy in the case at 4949…

  21. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat says:

    Fuck you NE and the fucking Refs.Perfect text book Hit by Goldson!! Of fuck yeah Aldon..Oh fuck yeah TD Crabtree.Oh fuck yeah all of NewEngland!!!!And the East coast bias!!! Niners Rock!!!!!

  22. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Wow, passing the ball down the field!! What a concept.

  23. rob's avatar rob says:

    aldon aldon aldon

  24. Del Mar Dennis's avatar Del Mar Dennis says:

    Anyone still questioning the QB change? I thought not.

  25. snarkk's avatar snarkk says:

    I think the Niners might have a better D than Houston…

  26. NoFear49er's avatar NoFear49er says:

    Well I guess I’m the only one that’s happy to be embarrassing the top offense in the league in their stadium.

  27. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Prevent d not working

  28. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Brady is still getting too much time to throw.

  29. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    24 point is nothing for NE

  30. B's avatar B says:

    Wooddick has no business scoring on those 2 runs.

  31. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    The next offensive series will be important. We need to eat up 5 or 6 minutes and get one more score.

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

      See, this is not the time to try and run out the clock by running the ball. Go for the fucking throat and THROW THE GODDAMN BALL!!! Last time I checked it’s been working quite nicely this evening…

  32. rob's avatar rob says:

    c’mon niners

  33. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    Run the ball, eat up some clock.

  34. B's avatar B says:

    Wooddick has no business scoring on those 2 runs…..

  35. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Prevent D, now we are going to see 3 runs and 3 and out!

  36. rob's avatar rob says:

    c’mon kappy … c’mon aldon !!!

  37. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Still 21 minutes in this game, and Tom Brady is their QB. You CANNOT take your foot off the pedal here.

  38. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    Nice run James.

  39. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat says:

    LMJ showing the moves!!!

  40. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    big play here. Kappy needs to look to run if he can.

  41. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Shit get him out from under center!! The exchange has been crap all night long

  42. B's avatar B says:

    Of course.

  43. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    Damn… Com on D.

  44. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    NE gets the ball back, with momentum, 19 minutes left. I do not like this shit.

  45. Del Mar Dennis's avatar Del Mar Dennis says:

    Didn’t like that drive one iota. Playing not to lose…Tom Brady may be down by 21, but he has 14+ mins., and did I mention. He’s fucking Tom Brady?!?!?!?

  46. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    No pressure again.

  47. rob's avatar rob says:

    passrush

  48. rob's avatar rob says:

    go justin go aldon

  49. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Terrific coverage – but give Brady that much time, and bad things will happen. I would not rush only 3.

  50. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Still two minutes left in the third. This can VERY EASILY slip away.

  51. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    Screw this defense.. Go back to bringing pressure.

  52. snarkk's avatar snarkk says:

    WTF are they doing with this “prevent” like BS defense. Why stop doing what they were doing that was working?…

  53. B's avatar B says:

    Why in the fuck are they playing zone? Mother fucker.

  54. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Huge here on 4th down.

  55. NoFear49er's avatar NoFear49er says:

    Great goal line effort. I thought Brady would throw on one try anyway.

  56. Flavor's avatar Flavor says:

    really disappointed with the zone D call. Why? Just give him the fucking TD if you’re going to go zone.

  57. Alleykat's avatar Alleykat says:

    4th and goal…..Coming up.Time to fucking.step it up and Stuff their Ass!!!

  58. Del Mar Dennis's avatar Del Mar Dennis says:

    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.

  59. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    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.

  60. NoFear49er's avatar NoFear49er says:

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

  61. rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

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

  62. Del Mar Dennis's avatar Del Mar Dennis says:

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

  63. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

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

  64. 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.

  65. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

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

  66. B's avatar B says:

    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

  67. 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.

  68. 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.

  69. rob's avatar rob says:

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

  70. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    Man D and pressure, please!

  71. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

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

  72. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    4th and 2… Come on baby!

  73. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Nice play by Tarell.

  74. rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

    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.

  75. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Better play by Brady.

  76. NoFear49er's avatar NoFear49er says:

    Chrissakes, where was the corner?

  77. Chico's avatar Chico says:

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

  78. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    Shut up Brady..

  79. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    This is why the prevent D is crap and it is stupid to go conservative and run the ball on offense! Harbaugh needs to learn to go for the kill!! Put the pedal to the medal and score, and continue to score!!

  80. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    This game should have been over at halftime. Our inability to make the most of opportunities to close out teams has cost us games this season, and this one is still in doubt.

  81. Chico's avatar Chico says:

    Fucking flag…

  82. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    That should have been a Personal Foul on Brady for spiking the ball in the field – but the zebras don’t call those on Hollywood players like Brady.

  83. snarkk's avatar snarkk says:

    Don’t look now, but the coaches, now the D players, are throwing this game away…

  84. B's avatar B says:

    Brown: you stupid piece of shit!

  85. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    BS call on tangled feet.

  86. NoFear49er's avatar NoFear49er says:

    There’s your man D.

  87. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    I hate it when a player looks stupid and throws his hands in the air, “what did I do?” he clearly pushed that guy!!

  88. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    No pressure, another TD.

  89. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Wow. Now we have to fight the refs.

  90. B's avatar B says:

    Just stupid play on both sides of the ball this half.

  91. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Fuck me, I just realized I had 38-31, Patriots. I hope I was wrong.

  92. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Just have to get a fucking 1st down at this point. The D has been on the field all 2nd half.

  93. rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

    This game is over. Watch it.

  94. B's avatar B says:

    Here come the penalties.

  95. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Great. We ain;t gonna get a 1st down to save our lives.

  96. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Ok, how creative is Harbaugh, we are about to find out

  97. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Fuck.
