The Niners are back on the road, looking for that elusive 2 game winning streak. Something not accomplished since the stagger down the stretch that was the Harbaugh exit back in 2014. That 7-4 mark was followed by a) Brady Hoke being fired from Michigan; and b) the 49ers losing their next 4 games to fall out of the playoff race. Coincidence? Who knows? And that is a whole other story.
The story now is the Jimmy Garoppolo era. And whether he can win 2 road games to kick off his 49ers career. No mean feat, as the Bears defense isn’t bad, and neither is Houston’s, although they have been hit with the injury bug as well. In a big way. DeShaun Watson was having a stellar offensive start to his career when he tore his ACL in practice leading up to game 5. Then J.J. Watt broke his leg in that week 5 against KC.But they do still have Jadaveon Clowney, so he’s always a threat. But their promising start was derailed and they are now relying on ex-porn star Tom Savage to salvage their season. 2-6 ain’t getting it done however.
That leaves Jimmy G and the slowly healthying up 49ers. Trent Brown is back, as well as Joe Staley and Eric Reid. The D line is gradually getting more and more pressure, and rattling Savage shouldn’t be too difficult. That leaves it to our offense getting into the end zone. 2 in a row!
If Yates in out there we should blitz every fucking play.
Hopkins is only 25 years old. Seems like he’s been around forever.
No doubt Niners are competitive just by adding Jimmy
He’s had someone in his face virtually every play and he still makes his throws. Imagine what he’ll do with a good line in front of him.
They can’t stop Yates. He’s picking them apart. Unbelievable.
Don’t do anything different. don’t change anything, just keep running fucking johnson out there all day long. All fucking day.
Need to have Witherspoon follow Hopkins wherever he lines up. Johnson getting easily beaten.
These two are unstoppable.
That’s just too easy on two straight drives.
Eject that bastard
Dontae need to be looking at a career change, maybe line cook at Denny’s.
Intentional helmet to helmet against the QB.
Clowney is abusing Zane Beadles. Another dude that needs to go bye bye.
To be fair to Beadles he is a C/G not a tackle going against one of the NFL’s best without help, tough task.
Another good drive by JG but they have to get in the EZ more, FG are not usually going to be enough.
Schlereth is just gushing over the Texans. He’s going to need a tissue to wipe off his chin with.
I had a feeling it was gonna be one of these kinds of game. Whoever makes the most mistakes will lose this one. I think by now everyone in the world knows we have to fix our Oline. No QB can live long behind this kind of crap.
Where’s the pressure? Beadles is horrible.
Johnson benched, Mabin replaced him, no surprise, Johnson sucked dick all day….See what I did there?
Take a shot deep to Goodwin.
Or Celek.
Brieda up the gut, again?
