Game Day – Playoff Edition

Be still my heart. Coming down to the wire here. The Niners, looking to keep the quest for 6 alive, have looked unbeatable and unwatchable like clockwork. Every 3 weeks they lay a fresh turd after coing up roses for 2 weeks. Inconsistency is their only constant. The D has been dominating until it hasn’t. The offense has been record-breaking and TV-breaking. The run game is here and gone.  The passing game remains an enigma no matter who is behind center.

Green Bay on the other hand seems to be riding the wave of solid football, going 10-2 in their last 12 games after a 2-3 start.  They appear to be peaking at the right time despite their loss to Minn on the road to knock them out of the 2 seed. Aaron Rodgers is Aaron Rodgers. Outlandish numbers (4,295 / 39 / 8), and some of his throws last weekend were flat crazy. Throwing lasers on the run for 35 yards, the usual. They even seems to have discovered a diamond in the parking lot with the addition of RB DuJuan Harris.

Still, GB has a defense that really isn’t all that impressive. They give up yards in the air and  they give up yards on the ground. Their WRs are banged up, and they give up a lot of sacks. The Niners at least got the break they needed. They were pretty gassed after that marathon NE game, and staggered down the stretch. The effectiveness of Justin Smith remains a question, and the run game is something that needs to get going early to provide a lift to the play-action passing game.

But still and all, I like the Niners chances. I think the Niners can get to Rodgers with their base pass rush. Disguise a blitz here and there to force a turnover or 2.  I think the offense should be able to get the job done vs Green Bay’s D.

    And we have to burn our first TO within the first 6 mins of the 1st quarter…

    Did we fire Jim Harbaugh yet?

    TD KAP!!!! That makes up for his PK 6. Almost.

    Go Niners!!!

    Way to redeem Kappy!!!!

    I love Kaep’s start! When fishing, whenever we’d catch a fish on the first cast or run of the day, I knew it was going to be a bad day. Kaep’s start to his playoff career is epic by fly fishing standards.

  5. I can hear the crowd over here now… KAP

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

    Don’t lie. After that PK 6 you Alex apologists were thinking possible QB switch.
    Mooks.

    Ginn doesn’t fuck up a punt, actually gains yardage, and we get a penalty. C’mon special teams, nut up!!!!

  8. bigflavor's avatar Flavor says:

    Manning’s arm conked out on him late. Fucking love it.
    And Scott, um, once again…..fuck the broncos!!!!!
    Kappy is doing what I’ve begged he’s do for a month: run the fucking ball.
    Lets go!!!!

      You’re happy a team with a double murderer (allegedly) won today. I guess I can put you down for those who push old ladies down the street while kicking their puppies.

      • bigflavor's avatar Flavor says:

        Yeah. I’m obviously for all that because I hate the Broncos. Denny you’re in rare form tonight

    • phil fan's avatar philippinefan says:

      Yeah too damn bad about the Elway delmarz

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

    Fuck. John Fox should die. That loss is squarely on his conservative-ass shitty coaching. I’m sick of seeing and hearing from Ray Lewis. He watched , and most likely had a hand in, two men dying and only had to pay a fine. Our justice system sucks. Almost as much as John Fox and Alex Smith.

    • bigflavor's avatar Flavor says:

      You obviously weren’t watching the gm if you didn’t see Manning’s throws turn into dying quails.
      That’s cool it would fucked up your beat session later tonight. Better you missed it

    Why is Delanie Walker still running routes?

  11. NoFear49er's avatar NoFear49er says:

    How bad is RJF that Justin Smith is in?

  12. IH1972's avatar IH1972 says:

    Hell of a game to start sucking cock against the run

  13. phil fan's avatar philippinefan says:

    No pressure on Rodger = 44 yds to J Jones

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

    Fuck. Great throw and grab by Jones. Justin Smith is but a shell of himself. And that’s being kind. Put in RJF.

    Fuck this shit. It’s all Alex Smith’s fault.

  15. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Isn’t that the side JSmith would be on?

  16. Spitblood's avatar Spitblood says:

    Why is Delanie Walker still on our team? The dude is a drive killer. Where’s Celek?

  17. IH1972's avatar IH1972 says:

    What in the fuck was that on 3rd down?!!!

  18. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    That was a stupid play, 3rd and 12 and you throw a 3 yard pass!!! That pisses me off no end to see that shit play calling!!! There is absolutely no reason for that!!!
