Hello, Green Bay My Old Friend

No, the 49ers aren’t part of the charter members of the NFL, but their history does go back to 1950 with the dissolution of the All American Football Conference and the absorption of the Niners, the Browns, and the Colts into the NFL fold. So, we’ve played the Green Bay Packers 68 times, amassing a 31-36-1 record. Our playoff record is 3-4 as well, but most of the Niner wins haven been recent, as in two of Colin Kaepernick’s playoff wins in 2012 and 2013. 2013 being pretty epic as Kaepernick threw for 263 and rushed for 181, with Frank Gore adding 113 himself in the 41-35 beatdown. I don’t want to mention the 1990s, as those playoff losses were brutal.

Because, of course the recent matchup was as good a game as this very good team has played. Amid the talk all season of the 49ers not playing anyone of substance, the 8-2 Packers took on the 9-1 Niners. And ot was an absolute dismantling of the Packers. 37-8. A game that saw the dominant Niners put up a 23 point 1st half lead. One we didn’t squander like the Houstons did last weekend. It was Aaron Rodgers’ worst passing day as a pro. The Niner defense stuffed the run, stopped the pass, and hassled Rodgers every time he dropped back to pass. Jimmy G had an efficient 14-20/243 2 TD mistake free game. Frankly, I don’t see much in the way of things being much different this time around.

Our run defense has been stout, and the return of Kwon Alexander, Jaquiski Tartt, and Dee Ford put us back in our position as the fastest and most lethal defense in the NFL. I think for now the Ahkello Witherspoon experience is on the shelf for another game as Emmanuel Moseley has proven he’s equal to the task. Witherspoon is a mercurial talent, but he’s been off since his injury earlier this year.

Stop Adams and Jones, and the game is done. Adams had 7 catches for 43 yards, and Jones had 13 carries for 38 yards. Everything Rodgers threw was underneath as he had little time to wait for plays to develop, and he was sacked 5 times.

    Packers have no answer for the running game

    They are moving the ball now

  8. Winder's avatar Winder says:

    We are letting them back in

  9. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Okay, Kyle needs to go to the passing game, so he knows Jimmy can get the job done. If he sticks to the run and they go 3 and out it will not be good!

  10. Winder's avatar Winder says:

    I am so happy for this organization. What a great turnaround.

  11. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 says:

    Yeah damm right Winder!
    They had a vision and a plan when they brought in Shanhan&Lynch for 6 year deals and it’s paying off!
    Tip to a cap to Jed as well, sticking too it!!

    I can’t figure out what is more important- -49rs going to Super Bowl or a sighting of the infamous Sophrosyne (with cheese). And, she is STILL going to Bryn Mar!!
    Chuck, how did you do it? Are YOU the secret agent we all were suspecting. Twin would be pissed.

      Lol. I guess Soph isn’t that sweet 18 year old anymore. Twin didn’t have a whole lot of patience with some people.

      Anyway, Jimmy threw the ball 8 times last night. That is just fucking crazy. But it worked.

    Since both Soph&Crab face are obviously not fully developed in puberty and brain cells, it would be wise to live out your non existence lives in mommies basements drooling over your next meals of green frozen peas right from the box, washed down with prune juice..
