As in the 49ers may need an IV after this one, to keep them on playoff life support. This is either the beginning of the end of the Harbaugh era, or the end of the beginning of this shitty start to the 2014 season. I, along with many others, saw these early games as mere tests to our depleted defense that would be overcome by our newly retooled offense. Funny thing is, though, the NFL, in all it’s glory, decided to institute new rules around line play and WR rules. Which was seemingly designed to slow down Seattle’s constant harassing of WRs, most notably, Denver’s in the Super Bowl, Seattle had the temerity to slow down Pyeton Manning’s passing attack. Verboten, in the eyes of Herr Goodell. The fallout from that was the apparent referee revenge on a 49er team that is extremely physical and hard-hitting. Recent case being two 15 yard penalties on Dan Skuta and Patrick Willis, which both proved to be legal hits as neither were fined. Anything remotely close to being a penalty has been called on us. Harbaugh redux, or merely kicking big dog when he’s down? Don’t know. Don’t care. But these penalties have been a BIG hindrance in these last two losses, and they need to figure the boundaries and stay within them. If not, this team could very well see themselves looking at a very tough road to even reach the WC. 1-3 and the division is pretty much gone. And we’re on;y at the quarter pole.
Beyond that, this is the second opportunity to win a game in their shiny new stadium. Philly comes in seemingly matching the Niners style of play by falling behind early, and zooming back to victory. The Niners of course have zoomed ahead to leads while coughing them up late. Philly surely doesn’t defend the run or pass well, and is having trouble running themselves due to a decimated O line, so one would think the Niners can attack on the ground and in the air. The key for the local team is to keep the ball away from Chip and Philly’s offense and score TDs when they get the change. I woud love to see the Niners get on top of a team and then keep the hammer down and win going away, but I just don’t know. I think we turn the page back a little and stop ;the 5 WR formations and get back to a more traditional 2-3 WR offense that doesn’t telegraph our intentions.
Tell ya one thing, Philly loves to attack with 3 WRs all day, so our safeties have to do a much better job of communicating downfield. Could be a barnburner. Course that usually means a 12-9 game.
Forty Niners Forever 
What were those play calls after the goal line stand? FIRE HARBAUGH!!!!
WHEW!
Useless Int by COX!
I knew we were going to win all along.
The Cards and Bungles are the only undefeated left. No team will end the week 4-0.
Today Gore bailed-out Baalke. Our special teams suck because Baalke gutted the coverage and punt protection units.
The 49ers just won because Frank Gore put this team on his back on a day when Colin Kaepernick flat- out sucked. Gore was a stud.
Fangio was smart in that he didn’t blitz. Like I said last week, Fangio blitzed the Cardinals and didn’t get any pressure. Today he didn’t blitz and dropped backers. Smart move.
The 49ers’ special teams suck. Period. That’s on Baalke. And really, the Chicago game’s on Baalke too because we lost that game because of our young secondary. But today, Gore bailed out Baalke.
just skimmed the comments. They weren’t as bad as I thought they’d be considering how awful Kap was. His mind is either broken or somewhere else. He screws up shit a 3rd grade mind should be able to keep straight….
That timeout instead of a delay of game penalty was pretty telling. His head is somewhere else right now.
Same dumbass who led them to Super Bowl and NFC championship .
I know…. that guy should be fired. What an idiot.
You’re goddamn right Bo Schembechler Jr™ should be fired. He did everything in his power to lose this game and give Philly every chance by 1) playing for FGs — twice! 2) losing not one challenge, but two! 3) having zero communication with his QB thus forcing to blow a TO not once, but twice! and 4) on that last drive running the ball not once, not twice, but thrice! Not going for the kill on 3rd dn to ice the game but punting and giving the Eagles another chance.
This team won in spite of Bo Schembechler Jr™. They sure in the hell didn’t win because of him. Counting the minutes until his plane arrives in Ann Arbor.
And the same goddamn dumbass who LOST the SB and two NFCCGs. Best big game losing coach in the modern era.
Lol. Del’s having a meltdown. Might have to re-think being sober tonight. Jim Harbaugh’s one of the best coaches in the NFL…. if not THE best coach in the NFL.
My advice to you would be to buy some winter clothing. You’re going to have to continue your Harbaugh dick sucking in the frigid temperatures in Michigan.
You’ll be chanting love ya blue as you blow Harbaugh. Blue? Blow? That’s a joke,son.
Well, you’re either a lover or a hater. I don’t hate. I appreciate.
Best game by the defense in quite a while. But still looking lost on offense much of the time, still breakdowns and mistakes, and losing A. Davis will really hurt if it means we’re stuck with Jonathan Martin for a while.
Kaep better start focusing as well. He looks lost.
Drew Brees is killing a number of my FF teams. Zero pts thus far vs Dallas? They have looked like horseshit thus far. In fact, the entire NFC elite has sucked. You can add the AFC as well, NE and DEN haven’t been world beaters. If CIN is the best team they can offer, it’s embarrassing. Bengals can go 13-3 and we know damn well what will happen once the beaten red-headed stepchild makes the playoffs.
The NFL sucks. Plain and simple.
Don’t forget my Super Bowl pick, The San Diego Super Chargers!!!!
Chargers vs Seahawks? I won’t even bother to watch. I’ll go feed my ducks instead. Speaking of which, I just fed them now. What exhilarating and insightful comments did I miss from Harbaugh’s postgame press conference? That’s what I thought. Might has well have a mime up there. Don’t you just hate those fuckers? Dressed in black and white and those fucking gay berets.
I just want to punch those mimes in the goddamn throat. I’ll make ’em talk.
There’s nothing that can console poor Del tonight. His arch nemesis, Jim Harbaugh at 1-2 beat an 3-0 team. And just when Del thought Harbaugh was on the ropes. It’s a roller coaster, I tell ya. Best thing Del can do is go start watching old George Seifert games of Seifert losing all those championship games. That’ll make him happy.
How bout dem Cowboys! 24-0. Our win vs them is looking better by the minute.
Tony Romo makes the playoffs? A possible rematch in January? Romo vs Harbaugh in the playoffs. Choke vs choke. That’s gag city.
Some how, some way, Jason Garrett has drilled it into Tony Romo and his offensive coordinator, Scot Linderhanderman’s heads that you have to protect the football and play ball control with the run. I was telling Unca last week, all Dallas arrows are pointing up. Now Dallas just needs a D. But the best part? Rob Ryan is gonna lose his job…. and this time he won’t be “re-hired within five minutes.” Rob Ryan is a bad defensive coordinator.
Say what you will about Kappy, but on straight drop-back passes, hehas no time to set and throw. The only time he gets passes off is wen he buys time by moving out of the pocket. If the Niners want him to be a drop-back passer, they need to do a hell of a lot better job protecting him. Otherwise it’s plays off scrambles and the like. Our line can barely block 4. Blitzes are usually completely whiffed and 2+ guys get in.
How bout that Raider call, Spitty?
The offensive line sucks right now and it’s affecting Kaep’s game. My Raider pick wasn’t good, but my Niner pick was great and my Charger pick was even better.
Spit, I know how you love to rail on George Seifert. But I’ll say it again. There’s no way in hell George Seifert would have lost that SB to the Ravens. None chance. Jim Harbaugh lost to Joe fucking Flacco. We should have fired him on the spot. Joe fucking Flacco.
That was disgraceful.
Yeah, because Seifert would have lost to the Falcons…. big time.
Ha. George Seifert wouldn’t have allowed 477 yds to the Falcons.
And lets be honest about something. Can we? Have you ever in your life seen a team so ill-prepaid, flat, over-anxious, dazed and confused to start a SB? 28-6.
If it wasn’t for that blackout we get waxed. And knowing how that game ended with a giant punch in the gut for getting so close yet coming up short. I’d much rather have lost 38-13. That wouldn’t had hurt as much. Had to endure another fiasco with our TO situation. Nothing has changed since then. Team still isn’t in sync and the communication is just flat-out awful causing us to blow TO after TO.
Zero improvement since the SB loss. But I’m sure that’s Baalke’s fault somehow.
Since the loss there’s been a lot of turnover. And the talent isn’t as good. So yeah, Baalke.
Drew Brees 3 fucking pts thru 3 quarters. That’s disgraceful.
Must be Sean Payton’s fault. Fire his ass.
Fire Dennis Allen at least……..fire somebody…..anybody…..
Lombardi Trophies: Sean Payton 1, Bo Schembechler Jr™ 0. Who should be fired? That’s what I thought.
You missed the point. Neither of them. That’s a what a sane person thinks.
Dallas looks good because they are playing a defense worse than theirs. They beat Tennessee and the Rams and the Saints. A collective 3-9.
Excuse me if i don;t do cartwheels over their success.
NO has missed about 65 tackles so far.
You’re excused! BLEEP!
49ers were lucky to win today. Very lucky.
Very lucky indeed. And to make matters worse my fried pork chop was dry. I actually was choking during dinner. If I didn’t know any better I’d swear Harbaugh switched chops with me and gave me his choker.
The Eagles weren’t the world beaters today they can be with those two offensive linemen. Their line was in shambles. So there was no excuse to lose, and we didn’t.
Schedule makers giving us a big break next week. The Chiefs on a short week AND they have to travel. Conspiracy to make Alex Smith fail I tell ya. Right. Like Alex needs any extra components to make him fail. He does just fine on his own in that department.
Andy Reid and Alex Smith are who I thought they were…. and Harbaugh, the second greatest coach in 49er history, won’t let them off the hook.
Actually, Philly was lucky to be in this game. Their offense scored 0 points, Nippy.
This was a pretty big win for Fangio. Good to see was Lemonyay on the sideines, and Aaron Lynch on the field. Not a bad 5th round pick.The Niners took control of the line on both sides. Very good to see Gore going. Bad to see was the clock management. Again. Kappy has to do a better job of noticing that shit. If they can’t straight pass block, then they should just move Kappy alll over the place to throw.
Fuk’n Baalke finding a player in RD5 Chuck?
WTF?
To replace his fuckup, Cory Lemonier….. and the verdict is still out on Lynch and Cory, but things definitely don’t look good for Cory.
Cory Lemonier was a Baalke 3rd round fuck up, btw.
Thanks to the 49ers Special Teams play. Ouch!
This place is a mad house….
“Madhouse” (1974) was one of the many Vincent Price horror flicks. Peter Cushing also starred. Low-budget movie, but slices of “Psycho” and perhaps even a precursor to “Scream” wrapped inside. Worth some popcorn and viewing this Halloween.
I just saw that last month. Thoroughly horrid movie, but Vincent Price is always good for a bucket of popcorn.
Jim Harbaugh: The 2nd Greatest Coach in 49er history.
That Donkey is my kind of Donkey!
Harbaugh can’t hold Seifert’s jock.
Ol’ George has 5 rings.
