Here we go. Carlos Hyde, he of 3 games of NFL experience, has called out his QB for giving the game away last week. Yeah, Kappy had the wort game of his life, but Hyde is a bit premature here in selling out his QB. After all, Kappy has been to the Super Bowl, and Hyde has one good game under his belt.
Then you have Honey Badger saying Kappy’s dumbed-down offense was easy to read and attack. Then again, if Kappy doesn’t throw off his back foot and leave those wounded ducks out there for easy pickings, then that shit doesn’t happen.
Point being, this team has a tough schedule, and even the 2 softies coming up, the Giants and Ravens, both have decent to fair QBs. At the start of the season I thought we’d be at 2-1 for the GB game, but at this point 1-3 looks like where we will be. They HAVE to take the Giants and Ravens to be even remotely considered a decent team. After that, it’s Seahawks, Rams, Falcons. 1-2? I don’t know. We do get the Browns, Lions, and Bears later, but by that point Kappy better have a handle on this offense, or we will be in full Gaine Blabbert mode.
Which is not a good scenario. If Tomsula starts playing QB roulette, then the team is in deep shit. But if Kappy keeps playing like he did last week, Tomsula will have no choice. We are back to the Harbaugh scenario of teams stopping the run, or getting so far ahead we can’t run, and putting the game in Kappy’s hands and beating us. Granted some of this has to do with a shit line, but Kappy made some terrible throws last week.
Again, the only bad game of his this year. He needs to move on and show he can play a clean game. GB is not a good team to be trying to find you way against. Although Kappy’s recent success against them must be tickling the backs of their minds a little bit.
Forty Niners Forever 
All this Eddie love is fine. When he had a blank check to run the team he and jerry jones ruled the roost. Because of their free-spending ways, the NFL instituted a salary cap.
He was not good once plan B free agency came around and he Policy and Clark backloaded deals. Eddie got busted in an FBI sting while Policy and Clark hit the road to fuck over Cleveland. Even f Eddie survived the sting, it would be hard to imagine how he would have run things. Better than this? Probably, but he got busted and had to sell.
That was domino one that leads directly to today. Read it, remember it, and FUCK OFF.
Chuck the point I attempted to convey with Harbaugh and Roman masking Kaeps deficiencies simply meant, that he wasn’t asked to do much in terms of reading coverages.
They utilized his running skills and simplified the reads for him.
They had an unknown commodity that took opponents time to dissect and minimize.
What we’re seeing now, several years into his development, and another Staff surrounding him, is that he’s not much further along in terms of talent.
He worked with Warner of course, which has shown a glimmer or 2 of improvement.
For me, it comes back to the mechanics, footwork and vision needed to master the position.
He’s not comfortable standing still. He’s staring down targets. He’s not throwing guys open. He’s still lacking appropriate touch.
We’re at the Mendoza line of trying to determine if he can cut it IMO.
Love his ceiling. Just can’t understand why so many of the fundamentals are still lacking.
Comcast reported at 6:30 that the 49ers are rated as the worst O-line in the league for protection. You are going teacheristic Democrat again. Teachers often teach what they are told to teach while not having a mind of their own but they will plant seeds to sell their agenda. It is exactly why we need vouchers in this country. So parents can choose to have their children not taught by those teachers. Me, I can just stay away from the cancer being sold here. And I will. Think about I instead of getting defensive.
Some of the play calling is curious but when then line is bad play book has to be dummied down. I would relax about Kap. He had a stinker but except for this game he has been OK I say when the O-line gets better Kap will magically get better too. I remember Brady being so bad vs KC last year when under a lot of pressure he was pulled out the game. I would worry more about the O-line and pass coverage than Kap. In the mean time, this place is giving me cancer, I’m out.
Teacheristic Democrat again Berger?
You’re nothing if not original.
I watch, I analyze, I critique.
It’s a given the OLine is a hot mess right now.
What I’m not seeing is Kaep using his eyes or, throwing like a rag doll lately.
He looks completely disorganized from a mechanics perspective.
Footwork, arm and body angles, you name it.
He had NO pressure to deal with in AZ on the first 2 pick 6’s
He’s got me asking WTF is going on between his ears.
This place is giving you cancer Berger?
I’m with you, Kap stunk it up for one game.
There is no better QB on the team and I’m far from sold that Kap can’t cut it.
Took Steve Young a good while how to figure out the best way to balance his natural tendencies with that of a traditional pocket passer, yet Kap is slammed and as good as gone because of one shitty outing if I listen to the general fan consensus.
Andrew Luck is the worst QB in the league statistically, which goes to prove the point about stats over the bigger picture.
IMO they need to change the O line lineup and find a way to get pressure on the QB. Mangina needs to do a better job and quickly. The back 4 will look a lot better with some real pressure up front as will the QB behind a reasonable O line that can pass pro and road grade.
12th-You are making sense. QBs don’t play well when under lot of pressure. Look at Andrew Luck. According to CSNBA Kap is the most pressured QB in the league. That says it all. There are too many people who can’t see what is happening. They call it as they see it but they don’t see it as it is. They should read what you are posting and get a clue. It is waste of time to read the constant Kap bashing until the line gets fixed.
I think it’s pathetic that anyone would pray for something as avocational as football. Try focusing your energies on the real issues in the world.
I like how Rodgers is sticking to Wilson over the God favoritism stuff.
Why is it no one can blame the person responsible? It’s really laughable when it was never Alex Smith’s fault it was always his line, receivers, coaches blah blah blah. It’s never Kaepernick’s fault it’s the line, new coaches, blah blah blah. Has the public become really this dumb? This is just like politics no ones held responsible anymore, wake up people!
Now it’s Eddie’s fault he twisted his sister, brother n law and nephew’s hands to make sure they didn’t spend the money needed to put the best product on the football field. Yeah Eddie personally destroyed football because he wanted to spend what ever it took to win, lol! Yeah he personally sent a letter to Tagliabue telling him he had enough championships and he would like to now give Georgia’s and her Rams a chance to win. He just loved parity so much and because the rest of the league refused to keep up with building dominant football teams like him he’s to blame.
Remember: Do not be deceived, bad company ruins good morals. It’s every man’s duty not to be fooled, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.
Can we finally chill with all this hostility? I love all of you.
You really can’t take a hint can you. Nobody reads your blather with a view to conversing with you. Your bias is ridiculous as is your agenda. Why people like you keep trying is a mystery to me, does rejection get you off somehow.
Nobody respects your opinion, ever.
You’re an uneducated cesspit, a simpleton, an ignoramous.
Fuck off.
This is from a reporter exchange with Kap:
Head coach Jim Tomsula said after the first couple of interceptions in the first quarter they decided to run the ball a little more and tried to slow the pace a little bit. In your own head, did you get a little gun-shy at all? As the game progressed, it seemed like maybe some of the throws had a little less velocity than you normally have.
“No, that’s something that I’ve worked on, as far as being able to throw catchable balls to our receivers. So, it wasn’t something that they did to take velocity off my passes. That was something that I’ve consciously worked on.”
I made this point earlier. Kap looked like he was trying to throw the ball softer. He needed to throw it earlier at that velocity. Before it would have been on a rope and the defender likely wouldn’t have got there to make the pick.
He is trying to incorporate new techniques at the same time as being under siege from the D and in real time trying to make good decisions. Call these excuses if you wish, but to me watching it all live, he looked much less instinctual than I have seen him before.
Berger is right. Get the O line to at least average and Kap will do much better. Until that happens, if I was the coach, I would tell him to set aside the idea of pocket passing (what pocket?), and trying to throw the catchable ball, and instead just go do your thing.
Too any variables all at one time.
Against the Vikes he mostly had time and the results speak for themselves. Since then he has very little time and again, the results speak for themselves.
If bergs ain’t blaming someone else else for his problems, he isn’t fully engaged.
Read the thread Hergs.. I said CK had a bad game. No need to throw Kappy out with the bath water. My point is he needs to play a solid game going forward. He can’t be part of the problem because the defense is flat terrible now. No pressure and we can’t track WRs to save our lives. 8 guys drop into coverage and Fitzgerald is alone with the closest guy 10 yards away. He was covered by linebackers more often than not.
That can’t happen. We are getting shredded throught the air. I’d rather see us blitz and force the.ball out faster than drop 8 and watch the QB of the week hit every pass with 5+ seconds to get the ball out.
Last week they dropped the DB’s back to make sure they didn’t get beat deep again, but it left an area about 12 yds from LOS kind of open and the LB and safeties both had some responsibility to cover whoever was there. The strategy worked regarding not getting beat deep but failed badly in stopping the O moving the chains.
Mangina never seemed o adjust to what was happening.
Hellooo there
Sup?
Kap has been pressured on 43% of his snaps this year That leads the league.
You can’t blame Kap for that .
Last year he was one of the most sacked QB’s
Nobody would look good or get better under these circumstances
Chuck my posts aren’t showing up
You’re right.
Hang on…
JESUS. There was a ton of blocked stuff from the resident dickwad who gets banned by the hundreds of posts.
Glad you’re bullshit filter is working optimally Chuck.
Some all-22 film cut ups showing the D at work (or not):
http://www.ninersnation.com/2015/9/30/9428347/all-22-49ers-pass-defense-is-a-problem-that-doesnt-figure-to-go-away
Just don’t get why Mangina didn’t adjust the scheme in a meaningful way from start to finish.
David Nuemann of SB Nation today:
I would say that it’s shocking this coaching staff hasn’t attempted to shuffle some parts around — say moving Boone to right tackle or giving Thomas an opportunity or holding an open tryout at Levi’s for the starting right guard job — but that would be a lie.
I think he reads your blog Chuck, I wrote exactly that 3 days ago.
Right. This reminds me of Mike Nolan when spiralling down the toilet, he didn’t make any adjustments. It is a LITTLE early to pull switches indiscriminately, but they really need to get better protection and a better pass rush. Plus better defensive schemes.
Shit ain’t working at all.
Commentary on Kap from PFT:
Exactly. Maybe Florio reads your blog too Chuck.
One thing for certain you’ll never find out anything from the HC. Never. “We’ll fix it” will be about it. The media asking questions is futile.
GUYS
Kilgore will go in on the O-line soon.
I wonder if we might try Easton at center and Kilgore at RG
IMO
Other than on the O-line where we’re getting Kilgore back soon I think we already have the right players in. Again, I might try Easton at center and Kilgore at RG
What bothers me is the whole insistence that we’re a three tight end offense. Huh ?
OK maybe we use it some but wtf.
I don’t want simple schemes and college offenses.
We need to mix it up and attack our opponents.
Spread em out too.
36-20, Packers
Ouch!
If you want something to talk about, I think we have a good one. I think Tomsula farted at the press conference. Would that fall under the list of ‘Talking Shit’. Or maybe, “Don’t Take No Shit’. LMAO!
Lets hope he had a clean pocket around the backside!
Lol
