Game Day! Playoffs for Breakfast! Carolina Payback

Here we go. A shot at our 3rd NFC Championship game in a row. We do know that to get to the Super Bowl we would have to go through Seattle. Stop me if you think the Seahawks were pretty nondescript in their win. If not for the fumble, the Saints could have taken over in the 2nd half and won. And if Marcus Colston didn’t have the biggest brain fart in sports history, well, they could have tied it.

Anyhow, as much I would have loved to see the championship come here, it would be a certain kind of special to beat Seattle in the Ding dome next week. Today? Well the biggest thing we need is a better showing by the offensive line. Mike Iupati was dinged up, and of course VD got dinged up early and Celek was out as well. I think Eric Reid went out as well, and Aldon Smith was just returning from his rehab. And Crabs of course. The biggest missing piece. With all that, the Niners were a near-completion to V McD that was broken up from kicking a game winning FG.

Surprising in the 2nd game was the effectiveness of LeGarrette Blount. Indy’s defense was great at keeping Brady out of the end zone, but not the running backs. For all the injuries NE has overcome, they are doing a pretty good job of things.

For once can we have a laugher?

    Fuckin’ Harbaugh!

      With 5 seconds left, it may not hurt as much as it could have. But he has got to learn to control himself. Someday he’s going to cost himself a game.

    That’s a TD.

    TD

    They’d better overturn this.

    Yes!!!!!!

  8. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Hated the clock management there, but they got the play.

    First Half summary: It’s Better to be Lucky Than Good.

    First TD in 6 quarters.

  11. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Well, for all the crapitute, we got the lead.

    Boy do they have a lot of adjustments to make!! On D and on the O!!

  13. Erin's avatar Erin says:

    Glad to have the lead, but refs have been inconsistent all game and we’ve benefitted greatly. Hope it doesn’t even out

    I really don’t get all the shit around Harbaugh. Certainly the players love a guy that will go to bat for them. He’s intense, crazy, and usually right. He’s no different than Chucky ever was.

    Tell ya one thing. They’ve left a lot more points on the field than we have.

    Boldin has only been with the Niners a year. He’s really the one bad actor Aikman feels compelled to call out, after the totally laughable we get no respect behavior of Carolina? Furthermore, the late hit in the first quarter Aikman labelled as terrible was the right call. The DB saw the ball was nowhere near Davis and had time to hold up.

  16. NoFear49er's avatar NoFear49er says:

    CK7’s 11 for 24 with only eight rushes for less than twenty yards. How in the hell are we ahead?

  17. Erin's avatar Erin says:

    Almost looked like Davis stepped OB before he caught the TD pass

  18. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    The clock management was horrible on that last drive, but they lucked out.

    • Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

      Actually it worked out great – we scored, and left no time for Carolina to respond.

      They do get the ball first in the second half, though. We better have a scheme to limit Smith and the TE. So far we are not outplaying them, we’re just outlasting them on the scoreboard.

    Kap has not been too accurate today.
