Game Night ! ! ! The Bird is the Word . . .

Sue me, I’m early with this.  Got a busy day at work (yes I have a real job), and I’m watching the World Series, and I’ll probably be on BART when the game starts, so here we go. Taking a look at the handy dandy results on the side of this place, and I see that we haven’t beat the Cards since 2014. The dregs of the the Harbaugh era. The garbage game at the end of that woebegone season.  IOW, a long fucking time.

But that was then, this is now.  Since no one was too keen on my idea of resting some of the starters, I guess we play and hope we come out of this game healthy.  As healthy as one can be after playing 2 games in 5 days. Richard Sherman was very outspoken about these Thursday night games, he blew out his Achilles on a Thursday night, and all the players certainly feel it, but here we are. Playing our 2nd division game. One of 3 in a row. AZ, Sea, AZ GOt to love the schedulers for this anomaly. At least we get Seattle at home.

Thing is, the Cards have the same schedule as the Niners. In other words, fodder.  Yet they are 3-4-1. They beat the Giants, the Falcons, and the Bengals. Seattle, the Ravens, the Saints, and the Panthers have beaten them. They are always tough at their house, and we seem to be cursed against them, but shit, we got this.

33-17 Niners.

    Fantastic read by Jimmy G on that one.

  2. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Saleh got lucky there. I HATE that defense when they drop guys 20 yards off the line. It doesn’t work.

    Just can’t seem to put this team away!!

  4. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    They need to score. TD here, none of this conservative run shit

  5. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    That screen woulda got 20. We run on 1st down 99% of the time.

  6. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 says:

    They sure have to cleanup these drops by the receivers and RB! Jimmy stats would be off the charts without them..

  7. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    I sure would like to see us go play action more on 1st down.

  8. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    D needs to come up with something here. We were too far off the line that last drive.

  9. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Someone on defense needs to put this game away.

  10. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Well that wasn’t it.

  11. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    See, this is why screens suck when you need to throw the ball down the field, now they cannot be conservative, go get the win!!!

  12. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    We are going to lose, quit fucking running the ball

  13. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Of course the receiver has to catch the ball

  14. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Good pass good catch

  15. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    They still need to score here

  16. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    We just need to run the clock out. they’d better not change this call.

  17. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Gutsy 3rd down run. Told my son they were gonna run. And they got it. Juuuuust enough.

  18. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Now go play action deep. Shanny needs to dial more that runs up the gut.

  19. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    If they don’t get a 1st down here there will be too much time on the clock, AZ last TB took less than 2 mins

  20. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Yikes false start

  21. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    8 and 0 a thing of beauty

  22. Grumpy Guy's avatar Grumpy Guy says:

    Smart play by Jimmy and Dwelley to finish it.

  23. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 says:

    They dont always have to look good but when you end up 8-0 that’s all that matters!
    Really a tremendous game for Jimmy G , showed a lot of pocket presence and delivered in the clutch!!!

  24. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Yeah, this one is on Jimmy for making the plays he needed to. Even with the drops that could have killed a couple drives. Hell of a game. Kyler Murray is gonna be a pain in the ass for a while.

    • Winder's avatar Winder says:

      Jimmy played his best game as a Niner tonight. Those timing passes were a thing of beauty. And the one to Deebo was perfect even though it was dropped. Jimmy showed some real touch.

  25. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Sanders is a godsend. He’s done so much in these 2 games.

  26. Winder's avatar Winder says:

    At least we finally beat those assholes. Saleh better hit the film room. We let a mediocre rb kill us tonight. They are gonna have to put someone to shadow murray in two weeks the guy is dangerous he is just too fast.

  27. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    The only stat I don’t like is AZ scored 11 points in the 4th Q, 49ers scored 0, not good!

  28. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Next 3 games ar home, let’s hope home field advantage is just that!!

  29. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Saleh had better figure out how to handle a scrambling QB, A Rodgers will be a handful
