Game Day XV – Bleepless in Seattle

Coming down to the wire here. There’s a lot on the line for both sides. Seattle has little chance to win the West, but they are fighting for their playoff lives. If Seattle IS to win the West, they need this game plus help. If the Niners want to get the 1st week bye, THEY need this game. Green Bay is playing the Tennessee Tuxedos, so they will most assuredly go to 11-4.  Seattle has some depth problems in the defensive backfield. CBs Thurmond and Trufant are questionable, No decision has been down regarding Richard Sherman, so he’s apparently  cleared to play, but Brandon Browner is still serving his suspension. I’m sure Jim Harbaugh knows this, so I see the Niners opening up early on the deep passing attack again.

The Niners D of course has to worry about Marshawn Lynch and Russell Wilson. I think the defense come out of the nickel they played a lot of last week. The Niners need to focus on Lynch more than they had to with NE. Lynch is a beast, and he looks to tear the Niners up if they go light on the line. But Wilson brings a big run threat as well as his passing game. They use the read option, and have been slowly running it more and more. So who decides this game? The crowd? The weather? The coaches? Turnovers?

Yeah, could be all of the above. This will be the 6th nationally televised game for the Niners, and they are a gaudy 5-0 so far. There’s a shitload of talk regarding the freshman class of quarterback who are tearing up the league. From  Griffin to Luck to Wilson, they are gathering all the press. Colin Kaepernick. For all he did in his few chances, there’s not a hell of a lot of notice about him, other than his tattoos and how he got the starting job. A few out there are taking notice, but as of now, he’s still pretty much under the radar.  Frankly, that works in the Niners favor, but in the end it doesn’t really mean much.

Seattle’s a young team making waves, but I think the Niners are the stronger team, and they will prevail.  Also, I’m gone all day, so play nice…..

    The NFL has completely transformed into the NVL. National Vagina League.
    That hit on Vernon was clean and hard. Goodell has turned this great game into a travesty. Fuck him and his player safety crap.

    HIT SOMEBODY!!!

    This getting ugly, butt ugly fast!! The Niners look flat and unprepared!

  8. snarkk's avatar snarkk says:

    Seems like the Niners did not come to play.
    Seattle blew up the mid line blocking, the kick had no chance.
    Not Akers; fault. That was just a total breakdown…

    Wow. Great Christmas light display on that house. Nicely done.
    Not enough houses decorate like they used to. The Christmas spirit has dissipated.

    It’s our seasson long pattern = 2 wins and then a stinker

  11. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    The Niners did not prepare for the crowd noise at all

  12. snarkk's avatar snarkk says:

    At this rate, Seattle will put 50 on the Niners. The defense has to come up with a series stop or a turnover…

  13. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    The Niners need to go to the no huddle to take the crowd out of this!!

    Our first round bye is slipping away here. We may find ourselves in Wisconsin for a game if we get that far.

    It looks like Roman took the week off. There’s no excuse for us to be surprised by the Seahawks.
