Zakk Wylde Card Weekend ! ! !

This is the 2nd season (3rd? I don’t know) of the new only-one-team-gets-a-bye-and-14-teams-get-into-the-playoffs format. The Niners definitely needed it last season as our 6th seed was sealed on the last day of the last game. We turned that into a near-Super Bowl (damn you, Jaquiski Tartt!) appearance.

This year after once again early struggles were followed by a 10 game winning streak. This garnered us the 2nd seed. Still and all, we play the first game of the SIX Wild Card Weekend slate of games. We even get a Monday Night game.

Here they are in all their glory. All times Pacific:

Saturday, Jan. 14

  • (7) Seahawks at (2) 49ers (-10), 1:30 p.m. (Fox) – We should walk all over Seattle.
  • (5) Chargers at (4) Jaguars (+1.5), 5:15 p.m. (NBC) – Chargers should easily take the Jags. Well, maybe not easily, but win.

Sunday, Jan. 15

  • (7) Dolphins at (2) Bills (-10), 10:00 am (CBS) – Bills over the Fins. Even with the spread.
  • (6) Giants at (3) Vikings (-3), 1:30 p.m. (Fox) – Giants get past the Vikings late.
  • (6) Ravens at (3) Bengals (-6.5), 5:15 p.m. (NBC) – Bengals take the Ravens

Monday, Jan. 16

  • (5) Cowboys at (4) Buccaneers (+3), 5:15 p.m. (ABC/ESPN) Bucs beat the Boys

    I don’t see the Chargers beating the Jaguars at all, they just lost one of their star WR’s Mike Crystal Williams for the game and that’s HUGE,because they’re idiot soon to be ex coach Brandon Staley decided to play him in a meaningless last season game with no affect on seeding and he now has a fracture in his back.Jags have been playing real well under Lawrence,Etienne,Kirk& the Defense along with Coach Pedersen doing a great on turning them around after the imbecile “Urban I’ll Lap Grind Weiner Man Meyer” made them the laughing stick of the NFL last year! Jags win 27-17..

    I saw that you guys covered this. I want to add. Jeff Beck was as good as any guitarist ever. He was 1 of 1. Probably the most difficult to copy of all time. Some have said they should rename the Whammy Bar, the jeff Beck Bar. Jimi Hendricks attributed him to learning to use feedback. Many great guitarists would say when he was in the room playing, they wanted to stop and watch because they were in awe. I saw his last performance. Here is a take from the show I was at. Johnny Depp came out for the last quarter or third of the show.

    One more. Jeff Beck is amazing. Nice jam with Stanley Clark on third song. Jeff even throws in a rift from ‘Third Stone from the Sun’, which was the first song I remember being my favorite song when I was a kid.

    Wow. Didn’t realize his last show was local. Yeah, he was a true original.

    Loved the Loud hailer album.

    Finally stopped raining in south bay. Hope field is OK and conditions dry enough for real football/non weather game.

    I love this version of Peter Gunn.

  10. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 says:

    Winder..Yeah great version of Peter Gunn !
    Damm Jeff Beck was so awesome 👏 and playing with Jimmy Page also was incredible!
    Nice pull a few threads back on Wishbone Ash Winder! King will Come, Blowin Free&Rock&Roll Widow just some of their fantastic work from a very underrated British Band from the 70’s till still now touring I believe? 2 Great guitarists in Andy Powell&Laurie M?? Saw them 1st time at Winterland in 75 with James Cotton Blues Band &Lynrd Skynrd such a great show by all !!

    Supposed to start raining around 2:30. So the Niners need to score a lot before the rain starts

  12. willedav's avatar willedav says:

    Still dry in south bay, dark and cloudy but no more rain.
    Kat Idk about Lawrence he doesn’t impress me as being very accurate. Couple bad misses last week–that one in left end zone was JG esque, the type that would blow up Unc’s blog. Herbert I don’t think cares who he has for wideouts, he can find them. Plus Ekeler is very effective. Coach is doofus though, agreed.

    Here we go

  14. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 says:

    Yeah that was sweet! Purdy to CMC TD!!
    Great drive CMC is such a great weapon to have!
    OL opening up holes, Defense firing on all cylinders LET’S Gooooo!!!! Keep the pressure on!!

  15. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    WTH is going on with the D

  16. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    That vaunted, historic defense is getting its ass kicked and it doesn’t look like they have any answers.

  17. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    And Carroll is gushing again. That’s rarely a good sign for the other team.

  18. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Is this game too big for Purdy? Some bad throws.

  19. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    And these announcers are definitely praising Seattle

  20. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    FG aren’t going to get a win

  21. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    Ward, what were you thinking

  22. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    Incredibly stupid play. What the fuck was he thinking.

  23. Irish Kevin's avatar Irish Kevin says:

    The Niners are giving Seattle confidence

  24. Lurker John's avatar Lurker John says:

    I have a bad feeling about this game.

  25. alleykat69's avatar alleykat69 says:

    Stupid ASS penalty on Ward hitting the QB late!
    Even more stupid was Shanahan calling for a squib kick with 9 seconds left WTF????
    Just bad clock management…
