Draft Implications Be Damned!

Run the table! With this improbable and fairly unlikely event that we have found our guy (thanks, New England), the 49ers have the chance to run the table under Jimmy Garoppolo and his cast of also-rans. No mean feat when you see that the original squad to start the year had more talent on both sides of the ball, and mustered a 1-10 record.

So, to hell with the draft spot and take no prisoners! A 5-0 run to close the season would be a nice feather in the cap of this new front office and brain trust. Especially seeing as 3 of the 5 are potential playoff teams.

    Even with Witherspoon’s potential, the Niners cornerback corps is in serious need of an upgrade. He was badly beaten on that last pass and gave up the one play he couldn’t allow in that situation. He’s been beat on other plays in this game. DJ continues to look like a Division II player, including in this game. The have to play him 8 yards off the wideouts just so he doesn’t get beat deep. Anyone other than Mannion beats him like a drum.

    It’s one of several positions that simply must be improved.

    Brock Coyle has played very well. He’s with the team next year in some capacity. Nifty return by Taylor. Love that kid.

    I thought he sailed the second throw, 12th. Not busting him out, he’s also made some great plays and had two drops by my count. We (I) just have to keep in mind that it’s still only his 7th career start.

      Could be John but with his receiver on the ground I can’t tell. Amazing how much courage he has to throw into those tight windows in as you say, his 7th start.

    Gotta catch a perfect pass George!

    Sorry to hear about Goodwin’s concussion. That’s a terrible injury caused by one idiot’s dirty play. Totally unnecessary.

      I was surprised he wasn’t tossed for it. Too bad, Quise might have got his yards for his 1,000 today.

    The dropsies have returned for this game.

    Sheldon May looks like a guy who could contribute moving forward, if only to add depth to the D-line.

    How did Mannion ever have the most career yards in Pac 12 history?
    This guys another Blaine Gabbert at best, probably worse..

    This color guy stinks. He just got done praising DJ for the number of tackles he’s made. Someone should remind him that a high number of tackles is usually a bad thing for a CB.

    Say what you will about Hyde, that’s his 8th TD of the year. Not too shabby.

  11. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    Breida and Hyde both having nice games, as is the Niner running attack overall.

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

    Its official, Niners O is the real thing.

  13. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 says:

    Can’t see a scenario where Hyde doesn’t comeback.
    He’s proved his worth this year, staying healthy, running hard,pass blocking well, catching out of the backfield.
    Brieda helps make this a good tandem, along with Jusy the FB making key blocks to spring them both. Also if Joe Williams can hold on to the ball, he could possibly be in the mix next year as well..

  14. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 says:

    Ruben Foster on the ground again. As much as I’m sure most of us love his energy and fire. will he ever hold up for a full season?

  15. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 says:

    Yeah Winder you might be right about Hyde and his salary.Would the same apply to Eric Reid?Wouldnt think they would want to lose some of these veterans presence going forward in their rebuilding, but who knows?

    Seattle comes all the way back to take the lead over Arizona. They have to win and Atlanta has to lose, but they have a 2-score lead with about 6 minutes left.

  17. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    Good win!

  18. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    Not looking good for Seattle. 2 TD lead for ATL. I love it.

    I like what Garoppolo said when asked about not facing the full Rams squad. “Its a faceless opponent”, meaning it makes no difference who is on the field, your job is to win.

    • Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

      I’m already ready for next season. Hopefully the Giants will rebound and make the off season go by more quickly.

    Cards have a FG. This will come down to the wire but in any event I thin its safe to say the Klink has become the Klunk, home field advantage not what it used to be there.

    • Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

      The team either. I can hear that window closing. Sherman and Chancellor likely gone. This’ll shut up the loudmouthed Seattle fans for a while.
