GaME Day!! By the Time I Get to PHX . . .

Will this be the first win? AZ is usually a tough place to play, but we’ll see about this one. I think we can win this one but this is predicated on this defense getting pressure on Ichabod Palmer. I think AZ is well past their window of viability in being a strong contender in the playoffs, but we certainly aren’t there by any stretch.

Without David Johnson, AZ’s run game is not nearly the scary thing it was. And the worry in the air is of course Larry Fitzgerald. Which brings me back to the pressure, or lack thereof. If we don;t get pressure we don’t win.

    Doesn’t look good for the Niners!

    Was that the prevent defense in action there during that drive?

    Damn the Niners just can’t get a break! That was too close

    This is a joke. I love how there’s no replay of the PI.

  7. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    Wow, finding exciting new ways to lose.

  8. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Oh well. I guess we just have to live with the fact that the refs decide just about every game that is close.

    Rashard again.

  10. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Once again though way too many penalties and drops. But the refs took away 4 total TDs.

  11. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    Better than a tie. Still in the running for the Sam Darnold sweepstakes. The Niners left a ton of plays on the field today, not to mention 13 fucking penalties. Hoyer was awful. The receivers were awful. Shanny isn’t impressing so far, not like Sean McVay is. Way too many mistakes on both sides of the ball, suspect play calling.. The bright spot was the d-line.

  12. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    Maybe it’s time to give Beathard a look.

  13. The D line was dropping 2 guys into coverage until about the 50 (and still couldn’t cover the backs), they should have just kept bringing the heat on Palmer… I wouldn’t jump on the Rams bandwagon yet. They barely beat SF and needed help from the refs to do that.

      They played a good game today and dominated the second half on the road. They have flaws, but look to be tough.

    Saleh’s dominating Shanahan right now if that means much. They better go all in on offense next draft!

    • Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

      You have to be kidding. Big time need at CB and a consistent edge rusher. More depth at LB is also needed. Losing Borland was a killer. QB and OL for sure.

  15. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    Was Armstead injured? He was invisible all day. Thomas had his best game, Buckner was a beast and Ray-Ray had his best game. The line figures to keep improving and getting Foster back will be a boost. Those corners, though, fuck they suck.

  16. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    Kilgore smoked some serious pole today. When your center sucks it’s hard for the rest of the line to gel.

    A pass rush takes heat off the Secondary. Our efforts were respectable overall, just not successful when it mattered most.
    We’ve got to stop shooting ourselves in the face with stupid penalties and, of course, dropping the throws Hoyer does make.

    Might have to rescind my prediction of the NYJ Picking #1 next year.
    It’s looking like Cleveland hasn’t done much to release their grip on that position, while we attempt to give them a run for it.
    But…What’s the story of the NYG hanging onto the same Oh-Fer record after 4 games too?
    This League is just too damn ridiculous to predict anymore.

    • Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

      You’re right, but they had a pass rush today, especially in the second half, but the corners are so bad Saleh usually has them playing 8-10 yards off the ball. The pass rush isn’t going to get to the QB on every play. Sometimes the secondary has to make plays. Today they rarely did. Kat made a good point earlier. Robinson hardly ever turns on the ball. He’s always playing the man. That won’t work in the pros. Johnson may be a tick better, but not much. They have no business starting.

      • NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

        All good points Lurker John. We have yet to put it all together on either side of the ball.
        Hyde had his bacon saved on 2 fumbles today as well.
        A lot of our problems are self inflicted at the worst possible moments.
        Personnel isn’t perfect, which is to be expected with a new regime.
        Some pieces just have to do, until better options come into the fold.
        Can’t lose to Indy next week, or this thing might just tank completely.

  18. NJ49ER's avatar NJ49er says:

    I thought Shanny called a pretty good game today too.
    They just didn’t click well enough to make it effective.
    Too many self-inflicted wounds in big spots.
