Talk about an unraveling. St. Louis was supposed to be the next up-and-coming team in the vaunted NFC West. They had some coaching continuity with Jeff Fisher and co, Sam Bradford was set to shine, they have a stout defensive line that only got stronger with the addition of Aaron Donald, and they added O line depth with 2nd overall pick Greg Robinson.
Unfortunately, Sam Bradford’s season was ended with another knee injury, Chris Long is out with an ankle injury, Erstwhile backup Niner Shaun Hill came and went with a quad injury (no, not like Ozzie’s), and the Rams are down to their 3rd string guy, Austin Davis, a guy who looked good against Dallas (30-42, 327, 3 TDs) til he threw two 4th quarter picks, including a pick 6, to salt it away for Dallas. Speaking of Dallas, thanks for the tarnishing of the 12th man and beating Seattle in their house.
St. Louis, with all their defensive line firepower, has a total of ONE sack in 4 games. Curious at best, but that makes me a bit uneasy. Wonder if they miss Michael Sam. Still and all, if the Niners are going to progress offensively this season, they need games like this to put an end to the offensive woes. Score early, score often. Win by 21. Dallas did us a big favor, so we need to take advantage of that. Go 4-2 and get 1/2 a game up on Seattle is a good thing. We need to keep pace with AZ. Lose this one, and it just makes everything harder.
But as the SF Giants proved, it isn’t how you start, but how you finish. This team is actually doing much better on defense than I imagined. Time for the offense to step up.
I’d rather be lucky than good.
Fuck you. You don;t get to acknowledge that good play. You as well, Spitty. Fuck you both.
lol
I had no intention of ever acknowledging that play (in a positive manner). Doesn’t deserve it. And after 30 mins of football, we DESERVE to lose.
spitblood, you are worse than Dennis. And that’s saying something.
What llittle pussies you are.
You’re a cocksucking company man.
With all the problems the 49ers have, they absolutely need a deep passing attack. I never thought I’d say this, but thank god for Brandon Lloyd.
It’s a good thing the players have more heart than the lousy fans or they’d have packed up and gone home by now.
Culliver is really sucking. Thing is, we need pressure. We should be pressuring just about every throw.
that was awesome to see Kap throw the ball down field again. All of this possession shit has gotten extremely old……
5 1st dns and 10 yds rushing at the half.
Oh, yeah. This team has a shot at winning the Super Bowl.
Peyton Manning and the Broncos are licking their fetlocks.
Sorry Dennis. What’s the score? Quit your fucking whining.
Flav, you couldn’t be more wrong. Kappy is not the guy that needs to run. The read-option isn’t working. We don’t run deep enough routes for it to work. That’s how you end up with a lame-ass RG III. Gore should be running. Hyde as well. Philly and Dallas ran all over these guys.
You don’t send your QB into traffic to get blasted.
That’s the first cogent comment you’ve made in quite awhile. Care to confess anything else?
OK, yer a pathetic fan who doesn’t deserve to watchi this team.
I’m not talking about the read option. I’m talking about designed runs. And if the play is happening in front of you then you are the one to dictate the direction of the play (ie, slide if you’re about to get hammered)
With the passing attack, the 49ers only throw 10 yard passes, and our secondary if fucking terrible.
That deep threat is so huge.
Culliver sucks, Bethea sucks, Reid sucks and so does Cox. Our secondary is too small and ineffective.
Funny, that’s what all your ex- girlfriends said about you.
Is Crabtree even on the 49ers anymore?
Keep rushing Davis, run the ball, and we win this game easily.
We’ had like 10 plays on offense Spitty. Please try to pay attention.
22 to be exact in the first half.
there we go, Kap!
VD is playing like a woman tonight
And Vernon drops another one.
Fuck him and his first born male child.
Kap could have run for that first down easily.
Unreal throw there. Now the defense is rested.
Yes it was. Off his back foot again. That shit don’t fly in the playoffs when you’re playing teams not from St.Louis.
The hell it doesn’t. You don’t remember the back foot throw over Earl Thomas to Boldin in the NFC Championship game?
Bad mechanics come back to haunt you. Maybe not always, but they’ll bite you for throwing off the wrong shoe. They always do. They’re like a bad Halloween joke. They always end a…
The 49ers should never run the ball again. With a secondary this bad, we need a potent passing attack. Vernon Davis should sit…. losing his job to Carrier.
PW is hurt? When the fuck did that happen?
