The Season is Here!

Carolina travels to Sherpaland to open the 2016 season! The talk is over. The miasma of uncertainty  stops, and the real shit begins. Of course, the Niners are saved for the last game. Monday night vs the Rams.

To me this is a very important game. Given the tough schedule, this would appear to be the most winnable of the first 5. The. A k end isn’t as tough as the beginning, but all may be lost by then.

Well, enough talk. Play ball!

    WTF is Davis doing? This screwball team is a never ending soap opera. And of the eve of the season opener. These rabble rousers need to jerk their heads out of their asses and concentrate on the job at hand: FOOTBALL!

      I’m willing to bet he came back to collect on the deal he walked out on last year Lurker John.
      Baalke likely said, earn it from TBrown.
      Didn’t happen, as we know and, I’d venture to speculate that Baalke said you’re an OG now, reduce your pay accordingly.

  2. NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

    Just can’t make sense of the complete 180-flip AD made days ahead of seeing his first potential action after a year away other than Baalke lobbing that sort of grenade into his lap perhaps?
    Can’t believe anything reported through the Press anymore with these drama Queens at 4949.

    • NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

      Especially with all the fodder associated with AD and the Tweets directed at Baalke and others while he was away last year.
      Baalke likely waited for his shot at redemption.
      Pay back is a B!tch as they say.

  3. NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

    There’s some sort of practice associated with Contracts being guaranteed after week 1.
    Let’s see if AD gets de-acted tonight as a potential maneuver around that Contract practice.

    NJ, you called it. The Patriots killed the Cards last night on parachute kicks. Special teams really gave them a leg up in their razor close win.

      The good teams play chess while the also-rans play checkers RT.
      When the League changes something, the Coaches look to adjust.
      Nothing for nothing in this game.

        I’m not sure about the sixth, but five kickoff returns didn’t make it back to the 25. One wound up at the 8. Arians mentioned getting awful field position in his presser.

      • NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

        That’s the name of the game.
        Make’m earn their yards.
        Belichick and Co have been around the NFL Block for awhile.
        They know what they’re doing and prepare better than most in this game.

    The so-called experts predict a Rams win. Niners better get it together for game day. Beat the Lambs! Show some pride! AD should either shut-up or quit. He’s a fool. Next he’ll be taking a knee at the anthem. BOO HOO!

    • NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

      I gotta believe this is money related Nipper.
      We’ll find out one way or another.
      Can’t do a 180 after stating you ‘offered’ to move to OG, only to balk.
      Betting Baalke put some heat on AD for sticking him last year after the Draft.

      • NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

        Baalke is probably enjoying his turn at the wheel so to speak.
        He’s watched his returning 1st RD OT losing out to a bargain rack 7th RD Pick making pennies on the dollar by comparison.
        Can’t see this backup role lasting too long with the existing Contract attached for AD.

    GO 49ERS!! LET’S TOUCH THIS FUCKER OFF!!

    Let us have a little ROASTED LAMB at mid-field!

  9. Nipper's avatar Nipper says:

    Rams announcer calls Levi game a “can’t lose” for the Lambs if they’re going to contend this season. Next week they’re having a big deal in LA against the Sea Hawks.

  10. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Pardon the expression, NJ, but that’s pure suppositional bullshit on your part. If it was about money for AD, he would have screamed it from the mountains that he was being short-shrifted.

  11. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    AD did the same thing last year, NJ, and it wasn’t about money then. He seems to have an overarching need to be talked about.

    All I ask is that Gabby throws 10+ yard passes and that Gurly comes down with the flu. And that maybe Hyde can make it through the whole game. That’s not too much to ask. Go Niners!!!!!!

    RG III put on IR. The Factory of Sadness marches on. I feel really sorry for Hue Jackson, who I like a lot. He’s gonna be so screwed.

  14. rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

    My favorite trivia of the day: Carson Wentz was the first rook to start opening day for the Iggles since 1939. 1939! My parents were in high school then.

  15. rtfirefly's avatar rtfirefly says:

    Second place: The Browns won on opening day. in 2004! The Factory of Sadness marches on.

  16. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    New thread is up. Yeah heard about RG III. That’s tough. Hard to revive your career in the mistake by the lake.

    Stop Gurley and you stop the Rams.
