French Fried Garbage

Well, the early test of relevance came and went in a flash. Carlos Hyde dropped a 3rd and short pass on the opening drive, and Seattle never looked back. Like the Green Bay game, the defense actually put pressure on Russell Wilson, and sacked him 5 times. However, there were a lot of busted overages, and guys wide open on crucial 3rd down plays. Unfortunately, the defense was helped none at all by the offense.  In another dismal showing, the offense couldn’t run, pass, block, or sustain drives.

Yes, Kaepaernick was under pressure. Yes, he threw a lot of shitty passes. But again, every time they showed the coverages and Kappy broke contain, every receiver was covered. For whatever reason, this team cannot scheme to get guys open. This shit drove me nuts with Alex Smith. Wideouts never seem to know how to help out a QB on the move. This is a scheme thing. VD did get open a couple times, and Kappy made a nice back-shoulder pass to Boldin, but 5 passes do not make a game. Again, Torrey Smith did not get a deep ball. On 3rd and 19, throw deep. If it’s picked off, it’s better than our 5th round turd punting the ball.  No harm no foul when shit is going bad.

What next? Well, Kappy apparently bruised his hand amid the turmoil last night. No bone breaks, but I wonder if he gets a seat for the Ram game coming up. The Rams are a mess themselves as they stagger to a slow 2-3 start. Are we the next team to get on top of them? I find that hard to fathom as this team has no identity on offense, and inconsistency is apparent on every facet of play. Atlanta is going to blow us away like Pittsburgh and AZ did, so it looks like 3-6 is the best aspiration for this team.

I can’t understand how a QB that won so many playoff games on the road  in pressure situations (Atl, GB, Carolina) is now a shell of his former self. All this crap of the league catching up to him is a load of shit. If this team had a better system in place, I’m certain Kappy would look better. As it is, he’s catching the heat. Rightly so for some of it, but the team is failing, not just the QB.

As far as the management goes, this team may be in for the big blow-up. Trent Baalke is on the hot seat as his drafts have been less than stellar lately. The inability to land a bona fide WR is killing this team. They need O line help, CB help, RB depth, and another QB to groom. Throw in pass rushers, and you have the issues with this team.

Sure, they could right the ship and get to some sort of respectability, but it doesn’t look good at this point. The line is still very inconsistent, and Kilgore is slow to come back and may miss the year. Throw in the mass exodus and there you have it. And underwhelming season with a makeshift coaching staff.

    At least I’m not a hockey fan. Too many Canadians. Not enough black dudes.

    Yeah back East I used to go to minor league games. That was fun. On TV the game is a snore for me.

    Carr in his 22rd game has thrown 23 TDs vs. 1 INT in the redzone. He just narrowly missed another TD. Now that’s a QB.

  4. rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

    I think we have a candidate for: WORST. DIVISION. EVER.

    The AFC South is 11 games under .500 with every team under .500 after Week 7. I don’t honestly remember last year’s NFC South; they were thoroughly horrendous before making a late run. Let’s call it a draw.

    There’s 24. Carr outdueled Peyton a couple weeks ago; only SeaBass’ 2 missed 2nd half FGs cost them the game. He is fun to watch. Amari Cooper and Crabs make an excellent speed/possession combo. The Raider’s O is real. The Niners O is just a myth of days long ago.

    • rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

      I shouldn’t be so hard on the Niners; they were stuffed by an excellent Seahawk D. They did show signs of life the previous 2 weeks. It’s just frustration after watching the Niner O Thurs. nite. It’s like night and day watching them against the Seahawks, then the Raiders against the Chargers.

    • rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

      30-3 Raiders in the 2nd qtr. on the road, all offensive points.

  6. rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

    Jay Glazer reporting that Kap’s on an island in the locker room. Glazer is the same guy who reported Harbs on his way out before the Niners had played a game last season. Both stories from “leaks”.

    Jed and Trent are nothing if not consistent. Bye bye Kappy. Expect Trent to be back next year.

    • Nipper's avatar Nipper says:

      Well an owner can only be embarrassed so many times. This season has been a disaster on the field. Kap is finished as a Niner. He’s too inconsistent to be tolerated. People will vote with their feet with many empty seats especially in the second half of blow out games.

      • rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

        This leak emerges immediately after Neon Deion blasts Jed. It’s so transparent it’s pathetic. Sing complained about a “rat”. Nolan complained about it. Methinks the guy with the long whiskers never left.

      • Nipper's avatar Nipper says:

        There’s always rats and leaks. Losing breeds this stuff. Dissatisfied people find a way to reveal they are unhappy. The owner must be very unhappy about now. It’s apparent to every dimwit this season is in the tank.

      • rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

        This was the funniest comment on the Glazer post:

        A source is a source
        of course of course
        and no one can talk to a source, of course
        that is of course the name of the source
        Is the famous Mr. Jed!

    If this comes to pass,RTF, then they are truly fucked.

    Jed will go down in flames with Baalke. Funny the naysayers around Cam Newton after a struggle last year and he’s 6-0 now.

    • rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

      Andrew Luck looks like shit. Peyton still looks good except his arm strength is gone and without the best D in football, the Broncs would be average. RW is a ref-aided 3-4. Brees looked horrible today at times and his Saints are very lucky to be 3-4. Rivers is toast. Romo and Rapist are out with serious injuries at later (but not last) points in their careers.

      It’s a changing of the guard year, but not at all how I expected. It’s a bit of a changing of the QB guard (how much so only time will tell). Winston looks good after an awful start – verrrry early results. My guys Carr and Bridgewater look great and look to be close to making the next level.

      Dalton looks fabulous (let’s see come playoff time). Only Brady and Rodgers of the old guard are still healthy and playing at top level. Matty Ice is right behind (again, let’s see at playoff time). Cam is right up there at the top right now.

      I don’t know how much more I can keep posting this season. I’m already at the “wait till the draft” stage. I expect Jed to make the worst possible decision unless Eddie can tie him up and slap him around a bit. But the owners, Mumsy and Daddy, would probably take their revenge on Eddie out on the team.

    Greg Hardy bitch-slapped one of his coaches on the sidelines and then went after Dez Bryant in a screaming match later in the game. Practicing for dinner at home?

    And Jim Iraay supposedly went after his GM Grigaon in the locker room after the Indy loss.

    We aren’t the only team in stupid-land. If this season is teaching us anything it’s that reeling off a few wins could get some ahitty team in.

    RT we’re better off tanking the season after the Seattle meltdown.
    Plainly obvious that Chryst/Kaep/Logan cannot keep Kaep in the Pocket and expect success.
    I’m beginning to think they’re protecting the ‘investment’ from an injury settlement.
    Regardless of the insurance clause, Kaep has no trade value if they bench him, ala RG III.

    What scares me, is the prospect that Jed has no idea what he’s doing and, would simply make changes for change sake with no clue how or what to do beyond that.

    I’d shut down Carlos until after the BYE, see what Hayne/Davis can accomplish over that period and go from there.

    As with the Suck for Luck campaign in Indy, Irsay put Grigson in charge, figuring ‘anyone’ could win with him.
    Irsay is another shining example of why Owners should STFU and let football people handle football business.
    Indy stepped in it with Peyton and figured lightning struck twice with Luck.
    Problem there is, you need a supporting cast as well as Coaches, to make it go.
    Baalke isn’t perfect but, by comparison, what Jed knows would fit on the head of a pin, leaving a lot of pin head uncovered.

    • NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

      Best way to beat the odds is to improve the Draft position at this point.
      Top 10 is good, Top 5 is better.
      Decide WHO will run the team, specifically the Offense, Draft accordingly.
      If we’re not a ZBS fit, retool as necessary with the proper fits.
      We aren’t utilizing Torrey or the TEs when the QB isn’t able to deliver the ball.
      Improve the OL, get something from the RBs, continue to work on Kaep’s route recognition development.
      No guarantees that a QB Drafted next year will do much for several years anyway.
      Fix the Lines.
      Go from there.
      Wouldn’t pass on a shutdown CB if someone shows that sort of potential impact either.
      Protect the QB/Sack the QB.
      Pretty simple….

      • rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

        We’re #9 now with TB, Da Bears and America’s Dysfunction confusing things at 2-4. Give those three teams time to play and lose another game and we’re down to #12. We need a serious losing streak.

      • 12th Man's avatar 12th Man says:

        Bullshit NJ. No coaching staff ever is tanking a season, ditto the players. They all want to stay employed and get paid. That’s fans fantasy shit.

  11. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    If Jed is masterminding this smear Kappy campaign, then we are truly fucked. Baalke has some kind of hold on Jed to keep his job after his fair to middling drafts, and the inability to address the glaring needs of the team this last offseason..

    New thread is up.
