Hmmm. This one is a real head-scratcher. The best offense goes against the leakiest pass defense? Aaron Rodgers gets to shred our ineffective pass rush and mysteriously non-existent defensive backs? Our suddenly crappy passing game tries to unbury itself from the dregs of the worst game in oh, the last 10 years? 20? And that’s saying something seeing as some the stiffs that have wandered through the team lo these past 10 have been terrible.
I think these guys will play a better game. And I think they can even win, given the fact that they aren’t as bad as that AZ game, and they ARE at home. Realistically though our D is swiss cheese, and the cheeseheads want to exact revenge. We’ve been the bearer of a lot of bad news to GB in recent memory, knocking them out of the playoffs a couple times, and smoking them in the regular season as well. All with CK as the QB to win those games. (another hmmm) So they want to hurt us.
No there no moral victories in football, but really now. If this team gets smoked in another disastrous-type game like the last two, there will be some major grumblings around 4949 Centennial Blvd. For all everyone’s talk about the goodness or badness of the team, another blowout will be hard to stomach. Yeah, the line is banged up and shakey. At some point though, you’d think the coaches would say move Boone back to RT, or get Shareece Wright at least somewhere near the field. They need to work on the line to get CK some time in the pocket. GB is 11th in pass defense, so maybe we can run to set up the pass. I don’t know. I see a better game, but not enough to win.
San Francisco 49ers Forever 
I’d be happy to see something close to organized football.
After watching a few good looking Drives in Pittsburgh fizzle in the Red Zone, it’s been a disaster since.
For all the angst surrounding Kaep in AZ, I’m putting more on the Coaching this week.
Time for a wrinkle or 2 that hasn’t been on the game films through the 1st 3 weeks.
TEs/RBs in the passing game perhaps?
Reggie, VMcD, ANYBODY?
One way to slow Clay Matthews down is to force him into coverage.
If he’s his usual blitz-happy self, throw to his vacated area.
I’m more concerned with our ability to slow down Rodgers when we’re on D.
What’s the word on this out West?
Heard rumblings but, this is the first I’ve seen regarding a named female and a Chipotle photo op.
http://tinyurl.com/nweewxu
The word is “bullshit” NJ.
Good 12th.
The QB has enough to handle without losing locker room cred over a woman.
The D has to show up. If they do then there will be a game. Hope springs eternal ……
You’re right Nipper.
Talk about Kap covers the bigger problem, the D gave up 90+ points.
Well, the pick 6s weren’t on the defense but thats still 74 points in 2 games, but yeah, the D is my biggest concern. Especially going up against Aaron Rodgers.
OK picky guy: 93 points scored against the Niners, less 12 on Kap, 81 points on the D.
My bad.
Those extra points count . . . 79.
This protection of the real problem is the real problem. There you go Chuck, “Post of the Day” Yes Tomsula stinks and had no business being promoted and Jed either doesn’t care or he’s incompetent to run a football team either way we’re doomed. He’s a Line Coach nothing more you evaluate and make an educated hiring you don’t just promote within the losing ranks. Kaepernick is the right up there as a huge problem though some of you want to skate around this fact.
In the National Football League the quarterback is the only position player to be credited with a record of wins and losses as a starter period. Tom Brady holds the record for the highest winning percentage amongst the top 50 quarterbacks with the most wins in NFL. Yes Defense is very important but one position and one position only solely responsible for putting the football in the end zone is the Quarterback position, why I have to explain this is a mystery to all.
I think we can bury the notion that Kap is an elite QB. Cardinal’s safety Tony Jefferson said last week that’s why they wanted Kaepernick to throw because they thought it was his weakness. It seems everyone outside the 49er fan base gets it but the base it’s self. This taking years to figure out that a QB simply doesn’t have what it takes to be a great one is baffling. This may tickle Jed York’s feathers but it’s a waste of precious time to a concerned fan.
Now I’m off to church I’ll say a little prayer for everyone here.
re.
What a pile of dog shit you are Vagina. Constantly slanting to suit your view point and facts be damned.
Here’s a clue for you.
You are not smarter than other people. You are transparent. The problem for you is you are so dense and enamored with yourself this completely escapes you.
Hence you being shunned every blog you go on.
Take a minute or two to let that sink in.
12th Man, the problem you have is you don’t want to hear anything other than what you want to believe. See the difference between you and me is I don’t care what you say I respect your opinion as well as everyone who thinks like you do. I don’t get offended and I don’t believe in silencing people only because they have a different point of view.
Thank God that we’re all different remember a person whose house is only open on the west can’t see the sun rise at dawn, it’s only seen when the sun sets at dusk. If one tries to compare the color and appearance of the two, one will go on arguing forever…
The fault lies not with the vision but with the closed windows. If you look out of only one opening till the day you die, you’ll ever see anything new.
Peace be with you my friend.
I am still a believer in any given Sunday. The problems that I see is that we don’t have one cohesive unit on the team. It is real likely to get ugly today. I remember one year in the 60’s where we couldn’t win a game for anything, we lost to just about everyone except the fucking Colts who were tearing up the league. For some reason we could beat them. Any given Sunday.
Steve Young SB year the team easily won almost every game but got killed by the Eagles that year.
Any given Sunday.
The Niners would be better served with Al Pacino as their HC and Jamie Foxx at QB. “Any Given Sunday” This team needs to be Oliver Stone(d) to death.
One thing I wanted to mention if I ever got a working computer again. The Falcons and Panthers could conceivably put up 12 to 16 wins this year. Their schedules are unbelievable. Let’s see: They get the AFC South and NFC East. The AFC South should be banned from the league even with a good Colts team, and so far they’re not. The NFC East can’t get out of its own way. In their own division, they’ve got the Saints, who suck, and the Bucs.
That’s insane. Carolina handicapped itself by winning the division last year; they get the Packers and Seahawks. Atlanta, by contrast, gets the Niners and Bears.
In addition, the Falcons already beat the Cowboys and Giants, two teams that may have beaten them. Their remaining schedule is a cakewalk. They may easily start the season 9-0 before they face a potentially quality opponent.
With a schedule like that, I wouldn’t have picked the Niners to go 5-11. But they play the Norths, huge difference. The Falcons and Panthers will likely both waltz into the playoffs, the winner having a bye week.
Yeah, we got no breaks from our schedule thats for sure.
Until we get Kilgore back, I fear the line will be shitty. Even with him back they will still have problems. But at this point all we can hope for is incremental progression. They have a couple winnable games after this so getting to 3-3 til we get a little healthier would be a good thing.
The Bears are 8-11 on 3rd downs. They should be smoking the Raiders but for the fumbles.
But… fumbles?
I’ve heard of those somewhere 😀
The Raiders are so fun to watch with Carr and Amari, it almost takes me back to the Plunkett days. Carr is a damned promising soph QB. Too bad they’re going to LA. They draft some D and they will be a contender.
My boy Taylor Mays is on them now. First a good Bengals team, now the Raiders in his 6th year, he’s been far from a bust. I don’t know what’s up with Aldon; he just doesn’t look like the impact player he was.
If Niners lose today, I can see them maybe winning one more game (home v. Ravens) before the bye week 10. That would be a 2-7 horrendous start. Look at the schedule. There are no cupcakes, except maybe the team from Santa Clara. if it turns even close to that, I’d go for a 3-13 and a chance to pick Goff…
The Giants?
Giants are winning today over Bills, and Bills have been good…
Frank does it again. Gore fumbled into the endzone for a touchback, costing the Colts 7 points and the lead. That’s twice this year, and the first one helped cost the Colts a win.
Missing Gore is not a cause of Niner issues, for sure…
Fricking Bears are going conservative. They are dominating this game in everything but the score.
One thing the Bear WRs do is push downfield before coming back for the stick route. It creates space.
I thought the Raiders just committed a stupid TO. Cutler’s pick was just worse.
The Raiders’ back has turned over the ball twice. Not a good day.
Crabs is kickin’ butt, doing what he should have been doing all these years. As a #2, he can focus on first down possession catches, which is what he does best.
Sea Bass does it again! Will a 1 pt. lead hold for the last two minutes? This could be a very nice winning team-type road win for the up and coming Raiders.
Nope. Too bad, the D couldn’t hold. I don’t understand the cornerback coverage with time ticking away, giving Cutler the short sideline throws. Oh well.
Stupid. Though the Bears were doing that a lot all day.
Gould with the boot . . . Crazy game in Chi-town. Bears off the scheid . . .
6 lead changes….
Woo hoooo . . . . free-for-all kick return. That was almost awesome.
NY Giants stuff Buff. Didn’t see what happened.
The Bills got called for a zillion legit penalties at bad times. Taylor was off, and their offense followed his lead. They were just outplayed, didn’t look like the good team they were the first three weeks at all. Great game by the Giants D.
Thanks. Buff has a habit of fading in crunch time. We’ll see if they’ve been figured out.
Raider fans can go back to being pessimistic for a week. Meanwhile, lets see if Niners can keep Rodgers under 5 TDs today. I like Aaron because he’s a great QB and from Cal, but he’s ticking me off with this dissing of Cal — he says now he’s from Butte College — because he’s still PO’d that Cal fired Tedford. That’s just weak…
Hard to believe Kappy is 3-0 against Rodgers. Bakkenbullit is going to have a field day with this one.
Skins are 2-2. Philly 1-3. Giants are 2-2. Dallas? 2-1 and injured.
Strange division.
Here goes nuthin’.
Jesus. That was 6.
Fuck. That’s such stupid shit. If that’s a penalty then every pass play has a penalty.
Oh yeah.
45 seconds to throw.
Wow. BJ gets a facemask in front of the ref. Nothing. Another bad call on the false start. Looks like one of those days already.
On that first drive, I’m thinking the Cal defense bussed over to Santa Clara to start the game…
You would think that with all these stupid refs standing around that at least they can make correct calls. Horrible!
I don;t think we’ll ever stop them.
Ah, let the flying of the yellow flags begin…
Armstead with nice hustle. For all this the D isn’t looking half bad. Got to get a fucking drive going.
Considering that PI jump started the Packer drive, and the Niners were robbed of a 1st down on that procedure call, the Niners have opened the game really well.
Fuck. Is GB going to get every break? That punt shoulda gone OB at the 35. Instead it rolls 20 yards down the sideline.
VMcD showing what sucks about him.
Wow. 20 yard punt?
Somehow we need a turnover.
It must be a requirement of Niner tight ends to have stone hands…
Damn. Got to get a TD at some point. Missed that one thank God.
This is fucking insane. He hit Hayne before the ball got there.
Stat noted on the Lurie show this morning — Romo with a stellar .170 batting against vs. RHBs batters this season, and something like 65Ks with just 2 walks. But, an amazingly opposite cratering .370 being hit against him by LHBs…
Very appropriate post for the Niner game…
LoL
Come on guys get the upset
Fucking refs
I went from 8-8 to 9-7 because of Hayne.
Can I go back to predicting 8-8 now because of him?…
Nice TOP going for our Offense.
Can we give the D a blow?
Nice run by hyde again
Lynch again
Seriously, this endless penalty calling, some on phantom penalties, is ruining this game…
Jed need to get a team bus like Jerruh.
Then, he needs to take Blandino to the titty bar a couple times.
These refs ain’t helping our cause thus far.
3 points
Niners, once in the Red Zone, are evidently allergic to scoring TDs…
VD’s out and McDonald might as well be. Looks like we need a TE next year to go along with O linemen.
I liked carrier dammit
Red Zone = Dead Zone.
So….
What else is new?
Yeah the Dead Zone………Niners may as well be the walking dead there.
I’ve got an idea about this endless penalty crap. If the penalty occurs, but it has nothing to do with the outcome of the play (like on the other side of the field from the ball, and it’s not a roughing or personal foul), then you just pick up the flag, and the ref warns the player and takes down the number/name of the player — like soccer. If the same player commits a second foul later, only then does it count. In other words, every player gets a free first penalty if it has no bearing on the play…
Team defense f u lacey
it’s coaching…..Just look at Tomsula we’re in trouble.
Tim chryst’s playcalling was terrible that whole series
Good call finally
Didnt like the line on the 4th down dial was out. Where’s ian williams?
Nice game so far by ward
GB blows that one.
Well, there you go. The D held.
Well the D showed up for the first half.
Shit. Just need to get in the end zone. Had some nice plays.
Niner offense has been crap, as usual. Dominated in TOP by 5 minutes. Bad special teams play. Amazing the Niners are in this game…
We still have hyde and a good 0
Lets go niners upset
Kap has thrown more than I figured they would let him. Good .
V I’m not your friend and peace all over you too.
Nobody is averse to an opposing opinion. We are averse to your ceaseless bullshit.
12th Man, if I ended up being correct on every bad move ever made by the York’s and never been wrong how do you classify that as BS? I mean if being right is labeled BS what do we call being wrong every time?
Peace Brother!
another Patton showing
About time.
Need some inside juice.
No flag?
Horrible call
Horrible series playcalling there
Jimmy t
Acker lost it in the lights . . .
This is geting ridiculuos with the offense.
Wow. That was real bad.
This team is a joke. A disgrace
Play of the game
Be nice to see them hold GB to 3.
Wilhoite gotta wrap up
We need a td
+1
GB already has enough points to win
Another terrible series by the OC .
If the Niners don’t score here this could get ugly!!
The secondary is so bad, I’m feeling good about the OL
Unimpressed with the half time adjustment on D.
Playcalling has to open up as they just said.
Wow. Pinion was a 5th rounder? Jesus. Max protect and 2 guys come in clean.
Lousy offense
pears and devey let him right through.
pinion better get his shit together. 29 yds?
It’s hard to pass when theres no time. Time to shoot Pinion.
Run up the gut when they know it’s coming, take a sack, 3 & out…. What do they have on this team that works?
There are H.S. punters who can kick it farther than 20 and 29 yards. Heck, we had a guy in grade school who kicked twice as far as anybody else; I bet he could’ve done it and not only would he have come cheap he wouldn’t have cost a draft choice.
Niner offense is inept. Barely has a pulse, against a decent, not great, defense.
Torrey Smith has to be kicking himself for signing with this POS offense.
Green Bay 47 to 32 in plays run…
TOP is going to be 45:00 to 15:00.
Fuck AZ. Hope they lose.
Time for a fucking turnover.
Seriously, I can kick a football more than 30 yards. On the fly.
Give me Pinion’s game check and I’ll do it with my sneakers on.
Is there any part of this Niner team that is competent?…
At least we won’t lose ground to the Cardinals LOL. The schizo Rams are doing it again (beat Seattle, beating AZ, lost to Wash???).
Pinion will be fine
Ward is starting to pay dividends
We need to roll kap
Let him throw or run off it
Terrible don’t. Bring that out
Well the D is at least playing better.
2 scores down to GB run game has to take a back seat. It don’t matter how much you lose by so go all out to win.
Special teams are dogshit today, Kappy is missing easy shit.
Terrible 0
No more read option
Wow. 3 yards and fall down.
A 1st down!!!
I know the reluctance to go deep because we can’t block worth a damn. but at some point they have to try something with T Smith.
Niners struggle to make a first down like it’s climbing Everest without oxygen; Rodgers craps first downs…
Kaep isn’t keeping his eyes downfield.
We’re hot garbage at this point.
Fucking embarrassing. The OC should be flogged. Any high school DC can see what’s coming. The fans should be allowed to line up and take a duece on Jed’s desk.
Alright lynch
Mangini and the D doing good job
Left it short.
As good as a punt. Better the way Pinion’s kicking.
Pick there is tolerable we have to air it out now
Feild position isnt bad
Kaep isn’t seeing the field Rob.
This is getting pathetic.
He’s not giving his targets a chance to make plays.
Roll out kap
Tomasula will have lost the lockeroom after this game. Kap needs to sit, now. Chyrst needs his walking papers.
It’s more complex than that.
The D is doing well, making this offense shitstorm all the more deplorable
Lynch developing into a major stud. Looks like he’s in great shape this year too. He’s abusing Barclay.
I was going to say it’s about time Kap throws a pick, but he beat me to it…
Well, you heard it. Buck predicting Gabbert may be getting his shot sooner than later.
Kaepernick looks awful. Deer in the headlights syndrome in full flower.
Blain Gabbert come on down!!
