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…..

  2. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    We just cannot play three good games in a row this year. No way we win a Super Bowl with that problem. We will need to win four in a row in the playoffs after tonight. NOT going to happen.

    Worst overall half of football in the Harbaugh “era”, easily…

    This team lost all hope of winning the Super Bowl when Peyton Manning signed with the Broncos. You know it. I know it. I just had the guts to say it, repeat it and regurgitate it ad nauseam until the cows came home.

    “Farms in Berkeley? Mooooooooooo”

  10. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    We have, IMHO, the most inconsistent team in the NFL right now. We’ve had games like tonight, and games like Buffalo and Chicago, and everything in between.

  11. gropo's avatar gropo says:

    Was clear from the start, wasn’t going to be their night

  12. snarkk's avatar snarkk says:

    Blowing the two TOs early hurts now…

  13. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    A couple good plays in a row, and then we blow one. Loss of 13.

  14. snarkk's avatar snarkk says:

    Is there a middle screen or any screen in the play book? Use it….

  15. snarkk's avatar snarkk says:

    NOW he makes one. Where was that in the first Rams game?…

  16. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Wow, they had better make some adjustments during the half!! The Seattle D looks way better than anything the Niners have on the field!!

    Every other guy is a sure-fie HOFer.
    I’ll ask again, Did we sign Peyton Manning yet?

    Merry Christmas.

    Defensive line sucks tonight. Coverage sucks. ST sucks. Offensive line has sucked.

    We’re lucky it’s only 22 points.

  19. rob's avatar rob says:

    we need to score 7 to start the half ! we get em’ to a three and out and take it for a TD !

  20. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    5 Seattle drives. Three TDs, one kneel down, one pick by Willis. Plus we gave up a TD on ST.

    NO punts by Seattle. We cannot get them off the field.
