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 
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
I think Florio and Harrison both make good points. The idea that Kap can’t throw ‘outside the numbers,’ whatever the fuck that means, is bullshit. Kap can throw deep outs and outs as good as anyone when he’s on his game. Why? Because he has a cannon for an arm! He throws lasers. There isn’t a throw on the field he can’t make, save, at times, the touch pass over the defense and he can make that one as well.
Like Berger and 12th said, you can’t make accurate assessments of his abilities in the pocket until he has time to throw from the pocket. That’s just the reality in football, whether you’re Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers or Kap. What’s the best way to stop a good QB? Pressure his ass! Knock him on his keister! I don’t care what flying shithead V says, the o-line may be the single most important component of an NFL team. You don’t build a football team from the inside out, you lose. Simple as that. Why the hell Baalke hasn’t addressed this earlier is beyond me. Bring in or draft some horses. The best teams always get great play from their o-lines. BAALKE, GET SOME GODDAMN OFFENSIVE LINEMAN!
Harrison states that Kap stares at this receivers. Yes, sometimes he does. A lot of QB’s do. It’s one of the main reasons passes get picked off. But there’s also enough evidence from this season alone that he is fully capable of running through his progressions. It’s there on film, Rodney! What the fuck are you talking about? These goddamn CB’s watch film and know to jump the routes? Good! Run some out and ups on their asses and watch the wideouts fly. You can’t do both, press and guard against the deep ball, at least not very easily. You get past Bitchard Sherman’s press at the line, and see how well he does with Torrey Smith racing past him.
Too many of these talking head types go on and on about this shit and form opinions based on incomplete information. I don’t care if they’re ex-players or not. They get paid to talk and that’s what they do. Doesn’t necessarily make them right.
/rant
Yeah blast away……a lot of these ex-players are dopes in the media. When all else fails on their radio gigs it’s always about them. “Back in the day……we did it this way…..” they yak away.
Omg LURKER
The funny part is that there are people out there who needed Florio and Harrison to point that kind of stuff out
LOL
Oops misread you a little there LURKER but yes you are 100 % right.
Oh yeah, and sorry for the foul language flying vagina.
The problem some fans face is just like in our society today no ones held responsible. When no ones held responsible nothing changes in our lives. Some fans that are obviously in denial hear the truth then they result in name calling because they have no facts or stats to defend their beliefs.
One would think the evidence right in front of them would force them to face facts and if that doesn’t work the situation becomes useless. What’s scary is knowing this trait in people today it’s useless having a conversation with them because they can never admit they’re wrong or there’s a problem to begin with.
Like Alex Smith players and coaches around the league would even call him out but 49er fans would have nothing to do with that. They didn’t want to hear it they just wanted to continue to believe what they wanted to believe.
Now here’s another person telling the truth regarding our situation, let me guess he’s either stupid or he doesn’t know what he’s taking about, lol!!!
“The 49ers have to look for a QB in the draft or free agency,” former Washington Redskins GM Charley Casserly told The Big Lead. “I don’t think Colin Kaepernick is the answer.”
Like our pastor tells us daily, “We’re not to stoop to the same level as our persecutors. Otherwise, how are we any different from those outside our faith” So sorry I’m not going to respond to your vicious attacks otherwise I’d be just like you.
Well I’ll make sure I don’t result in name calling.
But really since you are insistent that you are a Christian I’ll have to ask you this.
V you do know that you’re really not tim tebow right ?
At the “home” he probably wears his jersey. I hope he got the fried chicken for lunch…..finger lick’in good!
Yes, they do need to draft a QB. As does about 15 other teams in the league. Nothing newsworthy there.
Thing is, Kappy was lookjng guys off and going through his progressions vs Minn. He did fine. He played decent against Pitts, but the D let that one get out of hand. AZ is a strong team. Kappy had a bad day.
GB is hardly the team to get healthy against, but they have to go out and play. Another 4 pick performance and it’ll get ugly. But I don’t think it happens. A win may be out of the qestion, but I’m more worried abut the defense.
They’d better scrap the 3 man rush. Or covering slot WRs with linebackers. Rodgers will eat that shit alive.
OK so you can cover a slot receiver with a LB sometimes but not a WR like Fitzgerald more often than not for chrissakes
Hmm, flying vage, I have to call bullshit on the Alex Smith thing. I seem to remember a whole host of Niner fans ripping into AS on a regular basis, yours truly included. The Faithful were hardly in denial about his long term prospects.
By now V is scarfing it up at the supper table. His gravy dripping from his chin as he’s thinking up his next posting on his favorite blog.
I am still in Kappy’s corner and will be until he proves he can’t get back to his playing capabilities of a couple of years ago. For his life and his own health he has to start making things happen. He can’t count on his line for very much and he can’t keep getting hammered. Even if they don’t work right away our coaching staff has to implement some plays were the ball is out of his hands before the defense can get him. pitch-outs, quick slants, screens, and maybe even a fucking statue of liberty, anything to keep him upright.
Look let’s at least keep it real here shall we? I remember like Kaepernick everyone blaming everyone but Alex Smith. Years went by and yet everyone felt we still had a chance. Then Harbaugh came along and everyone truly believed it was coaching that made Alex Smith average and yet again they all got back on the Alex Smith bandwagon believing that he wasn’t a first round bust.
I remember thinking man these fans will never get it, they’ll love Alex Smith until the bitter end. I called him out after only two or three games as I watch these wasted years roll by and thought where’s Eddie because only a winner wouldn’t just throw good years down the drain like this.
Then they brought in Kaepernick and wasted our time even more and cost us our pristine Super Bowl record. They didn’t even care if he fit the mold of the great QB’s that once played here or that some form of the WCO our great tradition was still used here. And after watching this lackadaisical, careless approach you honestly want me to believe Jed cares about winning?
Look I don’t know about the rest of you but I like to see things done correctly, I don’t like someone trying to fool me into believing that they’re doing all they can to win. All winners in sports use the same wining formula to achieve their goals, it isn’t rocket science, anyone can do it as long as heart and passion is involved. When it’s happening fans simply kick back and watch and when it’s done correctly there’s no doubt, there’s no questioning the moves, there’s no denying something special is happening. That’s why it’s laughable when some of you think we would still be here complaining if Rodgers, or Pete Carroll were here. Hell then and only then would we all be on the same page because things were finally done right.
I must say I’m really surprised that after you all watched Eddie do things correctly or witnessed Pete Carroll and Paul Allen start all over a few years back and within a few years build a dominant football team that you to wouldn’t question the York’s motives. You have plenty of examples to judge by just open your eyes, it should be all you need to see to distinguish the differences between wrong and right and caring and not caring.
You all have a blessed weekend.
Don’t forget dessert!
On the “other” blog, Bullit has run out things to say……..finally ….and his subject has turned to farting at work and other places. Claims the HC passed a fart recently. Yup that’s the way it is……..
Blah blah blah. Whining doesn’t accomplish anything, V. Neither does clogging up my blog with your tired shit.
Jed owns the team. Why? He got the team because Eddie was caught bribing a guy for a liquor license. He fucked up.
It has come to my attention that Pro Football Focus gave Aaron Rogers an average grade after throwing for over 300 yards, 5 TDs and no ints. I can’t say I trust them rating anything if that is average. I’ll go by what I see over a bunch of numbers thinking for me.
That’s a joke.
Win at home? Sure why not? 31-24 Niners.
Ooof. Bold prediction. If the goddamn line does its job, maybe Hyde can get rolling. That would give them a fighting chance. In the absence of serviceable pass blocking, an effective running game will a least give them the opportunity to go play action. Kap might be able to do some damage that way.
These are my new shoes. They’re good shoes. You can’t buy them because you’re not rich like me, they won’t make you play like me and they definitely won’t make you handsome like me. Your only chance is to get a pair of cheap imitations but you’ll still not be me. See I grew that I was dealing with a case of cerebral disease so I dismissed my servants put them to bed to show it’s not true. Many of my continentals think life is a game I like to think of the game as a Broadway Musical and I’m the star. – Colin Kaepernick 2015
We can’t win at home and we can’t win on the road. My problem as head coach is I can’t think past the last play. Winning is overrated, because winning and losing are both how anyone would want to rate it. Some people jump off the bandwagon because they know the situation is hopeless and others keep riding along even though two donkeys are dead and the other two are in a coma. You’re playing worse every day and right now you’re playing like the middle of next week! – Jim Tomsula 2015
The key is not the “will to win” — everybody has that. It is the will to trick people into believing you want to win that really counts. – Jed York 2015
belch!
Gore had a conversation with an Indy sports scribe, and trashed Baalke for the way he handled Frank’s leaving. Not a good look for Baalke. Frank had to go, so I don’t quarrel the outcome, but Baalke looks bad per Frank…-
Got a link plz Snarkk?
I think it was a link from a Bleacher Report? Google it, you’ll find it…
It’s a brutal business on and off the field.
From SB Nation looking at Kap over time:
What about trends?
Colin’s last really highly rated game was week 6 of last year, and Monday night game against St. Louis. What happened the next week? Daniel Kilgore broke his leg. If you look closely, you can see a slight downward trend after that. Most people would agree that this matches the “eye test.” So, did Colin suddenly change something mid season last year or has our pass protection changed since then?
Shitty center, shitty QB.
Here I was all set: my replacement computers for my relatively good while it lived Windows 10 computer were a piece of junk. No need to post after the Cards fiasco or anytime in the near future. Alas and alack, my friend’s PC guy rescued my original just in time for the Packer game. I guess the TMC oldtime low-budget horror flicks I stayed up late watching last night were really a harbinger of things to come.
827-0 Packers
Remember now, I’m rooting for the Niners to win each game. That’s my optimistic prediction.
Rtfirefly, sounds about right but we all must look on the bright side the score would be 49-3 even if Rodgers was in a wheelchair wearing a blindfold. Can’t wait to see Mike McCarthy on the sidelines bent over laughing when he spots Tomsula’s with his waterboy movie book, “Coaching Football For Dummies!”
I think the coaching staff needs to call plays that get the ball out of Kaps hands quickly. Joe Montana said the QB can’t hold the ball. Can’t disagree with Joe. Last year’s staff and this year’s staff don’t seem to want to call quick hitters. It would back up the LBs and allow for a running game. When they cover it, go deep. It’s a simple game. I’m not happy with the play calling but I do have to admit it is tough with a bad O-line. The play book has to be dummied down and the defense reads easier keys. 55-10 Packers.
I’ve been calling for that for quite awhile Berger.
WCO-oriented attack would all be predicated on timing routes.
To that end, QB and Receivers need to be on the same page.
Helps the OLine, helps the QB to avoid holding the ball and taking sacks.
This is precisely where I am with Kaep and his ability to throw with more touch.
Play-action would play a big role in this debate too.
Kaep simply HAS to throw his targets open too.
Timing, timing, timing.
He can’t live on stick throws.
Can’t understand why he isn’t more efficient with the Slant throws either.
I think Torrey, Ellington and Patton would be successful with them, if they’d simply employ it.
I think everyone here has been calling for slants and quick hitters for oh, 9 fucking years. Or whenever the fuck Mooch left. I know I have. If you can’t block well, get the ball out faster. Design plays that get this done.
I think Manningham was the last guy to catch a slant. They did it 3 times in that game and they all worked.
Not sure why this isn’t a staple for us Chuck, like it typically is in a WCO-based system.
Granted, Harbaugh didn’t employ a WCO but, Logan is said to favor it.
Driving me eff’n nuts, to say the least.
Tired of watching Kaep holding the ball or, running for his life.
Slants, screens, draws, delays, any kind of misdirection and play on defensive timing. Remember how Rice would catch a one or two yard TD just on an immediate throw from Joe or Steve? It’s mind boggling how constipated the Niner offense has been for a decade+…
