Vernon Davis is Casualty # 1 in the bloodletting. The 49ers traded him to Denver for a 6th and 7th next year, and a 6th in 2017. Normally this would be good news, but when you look at trent Baalke’s track record, well, al these picks he’s had haven’t netted enough to keep the team competitive. Especially on the offensive side of things. VD takes his stone hands and amazing speed off to Denver, where I’m sure he’ll provide Payton Manning with enough 12-15 yard passes to keep him happy.
Speaking of Trent, my biggest recent problem is, of course, running back. the Niners had, at one point, Carlos Hyde, LMJ, Kendall Hunter, Reggie Bush, Jarryd Hayne, Mike Davis, and a couple low-level draft picks. Well, Hunter signed an injury release, LMJ was cut, Hayne was recently cut, and we went from a plethora of guys to a minimal number. Hyde was getting dinged up before they let Hayne go. Hunter could have been PUPped, but they chose to chuck him to the scrap heap rather than wait the 6 weeks for his recovery.
The problem? Well, your #1 backup RB is Reggie Bush. A 30 year old guy who isn’t exactly Ironman. He’s more like Crystal Todd (for you oldsters out there). To exacerbate the problem, you just cut your nominal punt returner in Jarryd Hayne. So, your backup RB is now your primary PR. Your primary PR, who was your 3rd strong RB, is now gone. Bush of course already hit the IR with a calf strain after his 2nd rush of the season. So, Mr Durable is now your starting RB as well as your PR. What could go wrong?
Exactly. Nice work Trent. or all the talk of Jed fucking the team over, one needs to scrutinize the job Trent Baalke has(n’t) done in recent drafts. I said the bullseye would be squarely on Trent’s forehead if the team cratered, but he seems to be doing a masterful job of deflecting everything wrong with the team to Harbaugh’s guy Colin Kaepernick.
Problem there is Jed believes him. Might as well start Gabby Gabbertson and let the hilarity reach an all-time high. As in Jimmy-Hat fun times. Troy Davis, anyone?
. . . sigh . . .
Frankly, this year will be interesting only in the fact that they don’t look to do much winning. I’d better start watching more Cal games. this team needs to draft a QB and 5 offensive linemen.
Forty Niners Forever 
Kilgore to start practicing after the bye, that is welcome news. Too late to help Gabbert against the Squawks.
ST gunner McCray meniscus tear, had surgery Tuesday. Starting CB Acker and TE Celek in concussion protocol.
These are major blows to an already injured team.
Boldin with his hammy and Hyde with his foot.
Pinion says he is OK.
Team could use some good player news for a change.
. You didn’t stop there after that Jed gave you Kaepernick who was the complete opposite type Quarterback that you should’ve been accustomed to given our great legacy we found wearing are colors was above, class, character and integrity to you.
Yup
Some valid points
Like this one
Well, thank God the punter is OK, 12th.
Jesus, this team is getting fucked over in every orifice.
Kinda like V in his basement.
Exactly.
12th I pulled something out of the spam filter of yours.
Thx Chuck.
Hey John, don’t be so hard on V. He’s comic relief if not anything else.
His escaped goats comment was an epic malapropism. he’s had a bunch of those.
Good shit.
Google and spell check are his best friends, they just can’t supply context, ergo his downfall.
V is an oxygen thief Chuck. An ignorant blow hard, so full of himself I have no idea why he hasn’t burst at the seams by now. Don’t know about John but I have no time for his bullshit.
Hey John, don’t be so hard on V. He’s comic relief if not anything else.
His escaped goats comment was an epic malapropism. he’s had a bunch of those.
Good shit. I should have collected a greatest hits of them…
Oh don;t worry. I’l ban his ass and then he’ll pop up in 2 months.
Hey man its your blog, I just post at your pleasure, not here to editorialize, just voicing an opinion.
Oh, I know. V has been a hemorrhoid on my ass for 9 years. O’ll give him a little more rope.
He’s merely a gnat right now, and at times a very funny one. His new Christian comments are a riot coming from him. Remember as bad as he seems now, he’s a serious pain when he’s banned. I can deal with his stuff at the current rate.
Niners are fucked……for years!
Lets see.
USA today has Tomsula at #3 on the coaching hot list:
http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/2015/11/03/coaches-hot-seat-jim-tomsula-chuck-pagano/75081596/
I doubt that.
Lurker John, Just one thing out of a million I can bring up. Anyone that looks up at the moon every night and knowing that it controls the earth’s tide and the fact that the Moon stabilizes our rotation and someone actually believes it just happened on it’s own is what’s really hard to believe.
Unca_chuck, The difference between these two men you mentioned is one did profess his love for the team and that’s why in a well calculated move he hired Walsh who had all the credentials one would ask for and that put the luck on Eddie’s side for success. Just promoting Singletary or a clown like Tomsula shows your egotistical and nothing more than a control freak who put’s his pampering pride above winning. Jerry Jones? He’s the same way that’s why Jimmy left because Jerry didn’t want to give him credit for anything. After that just like us no one but a puppet would ever coach there again. As far as where was I when this all went down? I was right here at least well aware of what was taking place, a huge difference compared to those who didn’t notice anything.
Damn whatever happened to Tim Tebow? I thought that was your handle! Come on V pick a name and stick with it. How about Tweety Bird? Or Biker V.
My vote is for Tweety Bird. lol
Is fulloshit taken?
See Nipper now that was funny!!!
Some sanity:

12th Man Look the difference between you and me other than me using simple common sense to assess every situation and you avoiding it like a plague is standing up and admitting you were wrong. See I have no problem admitting I was wrong because I’m a stand up guy with character and class. The rest of you when you end up being wrong come up with an excuse why you were wrong and that’s where the entire problem lies. This act of no credibility leads to turmoil because you just can’t admit you were wrong. When we call you out for being wrong you call us whiners. The rest of the reasoning you question our loyalty to the team is entire BS.
Where’s our old friend NJ?
12th the Corporate Web Nazis blocked Chucks’ site.
I still get to Skeebs so, at least I can get some 9er opinions out there.
I’m relegated to Read Only mode.
Bastards…..
No shit! Whip out your cell phone in a pinch. I use mine to that end often. Hence the auto correct bullshit. Beats getting opinion at the Skeebs.
I haven’t read anything there since last season and I can tell you right now what is being said and it’s the same shit lol.
Update: Sir Spit is a Raiders fan now. He just likes them. Of course Skeebers doesn’t like anything and Bakkenpoop-Bullit claim they’re separate people. They hate Jed York and Baalke and blame everything and probably even global warming on those two.
Water shortage too.
That’s how I posted now 12th.
Problem here is, they’ve put clamps on personal device use as well.
Life in The Corporate Concentration Camp
Making life miserable. 1 Shift at a time.
Bastards….
Such petty shit. Government job?
The real question that I can see is who really put us in this shithole. If Jed doesn’t act pretty soon and lets this clownshow continue then it looks like he’s the one. If that is the case we are in for a very long haul. But, if he gets off his ass and fires the guys that should go very soon, maybe, just maybe we can get out of this mess in a couple of years. All he has to do is act like he gives a shit and hire some real football people. The 49ers have a tradition that goes way beyond Mr. Jed and all he has to do is find the right guy to be GM and let him build the team back up.
Yup. Jed can tweet his days away from his lux box. But until he realizes that the team’s problems start with Baalke, there’s little to be done. Harbaugh and trent had their pissing match last year and Baalke won. Baalke should be on the plank. He has shifted all blame to Kaepernick, though.
The results this year speak for themselves. Granted, most GMs would have a problem filling the holes left from the aftermath of last year, but the biggest failure is to not get the offense going. Baalke has done little to upgrade the offense, and the coaching staff isn’t using the weapons obtained. Baalke also ignored the O line problems and we have the worst line in the league.
Good luck, Gabby.
I don’t think Gabby is gonna have very much fun this week. But maybe the blind squirrel theory will be put into play.
Winder, I liken it to a really bad poker player in a new town playing against new guys. He might get lucky or he might just win because the other players don’t know his tells or his bluffing patterns. It might work for a game. Atlanta’s D isn’t all that hot. But Atlanta with their O, Seattle and AZ?.
Naaaaah
The ships going down and changing deck chairs will not make up for the leaky lifeboats. The water is icy and the depths have no bottom. Even V has run out of names for this situation. The iceberg is cutting through and the rivets are popping off. Screams are heard but it will do no good. Fate is upon us.
Nipper, you’re on a roll keep it up!!!
new thread is up. rejoice. A new dawn is at hand.
