Well, like I mused a couple weeks ago, the Jets fired Robert Saleh. Are we in panic mode yet with our defense? I think y’all know what I think. And that is a resounding YES!!! I think the players would be down with it as well. Those Saleh defenses were much more aggressive and much more disruptive than the lay back and wait for offense to get a rolling head start before trying to tackle anyone.
We may not be in dire straights yet, but a loss this Thursday would put us at 0-3, and in last place in the division. Or, we could be in 1st with a win. Yeah, it’s still early, but this defense isn’t getting better. It is just not in position on any given play. Yeah, Greenlaw being out has hurt. But our safety play has been awful. Too many TE drags and screens go for 15 yard chunks. The 3rd down success rate is through the roof. Our corners are doing OK but with little pressure, they can’t cover for 5-6 seconds on a given pass play.
We do so little blitzing that teams pick them up with ease. The 2 biggest plays were the 4th and 5 AZ faced down 23-21, and the 1st and 10 as the Niners were trying to get into FG (uhhhhhh) range after falling behind 24-23. We sent pressure, and Murray floated a duck out to the flat that Marvin Harrison caught for a 1st down, Purdy of course was pressured and got hit before he could get his pass off to kittle in the flat. Int. Game over.
I would make the switch NOW just to be able to adjust to the new defense faster. No sense waiting around.
Forty Niners Forever 
Just like the SF Giants this year our 49ers have some real issues with their FO. Injuries will decimate a team but we are losing games by not adjusting our play. Teams have just figured us out. I would love to get Saleh back more because on his enthusiasm. I remember he also played a soft defense at times and it was pretty infuriating but I still think he’s better that what we have now.
Only been in Florida for 3 weeks and already have had 2 fucking hurricanes coming our way. As of now this one is supposed to miss us like the last one but until it hits land nothing is for certain. This Milton is a big bad one. We are only 4 miles from the Alabama border and from what I hear is most people think this part of Florida is really Alabama.
Holy shit, Winder. Hope all goes well. Got a friend in Asheville NC, and he escaped major damage, but a 30′ tree did slowly tip over and lean against his house. It took him 2 hours to chainsaw a path to his street as so many trees came down. He got his power back on yesterday after running on generator for 2 weeks.
He said it looks like a bomb went off in town. He says that everyone is totally pitching in to clean things up and that everyone is super helpful.
Thanks, looks like we are going to get lucky once again. Feel terrible for all the people who will be impacted but am truly grateful it probably won’t be us.
My grandkids are in the Tampa area and went over to Melbourne to get away from the projected path.
Melbourne will still feel the effects but on the Eastern side.
Be safe Winder. Mother nature don’t mess around.
Boston Pitcher Luis Tiant passed way, 83 years old, he was fun to watch
Looks like ARod is catching some justifiable flak.

All the best for you and your family members Winder, Damm these hurricanes keep popping up in Florida is insane and deadly.Hurricane Milton? how do they come up with these names? It reminds me of and old cartoon show from the 60’s called “Milton the Monster” where a kooky lab dude and his assistant created him and the first thing he said was I’m Milton your brand new son while smoke popped out of his head..🤯
Hey Niners should take a flyer on LB Devin White still only 26 released by Eagles? A top 5 pick in draft seems crazy he’s a F/A now..With Greenlaw still out for who knows longer why not?
How very odd. I just watched the intro to Milton the Monster yesterday. Milton on the brain I guess.
Yeah, I’d do it. Just for the fact we need bodies that aren’t broken.
Exactly the point Woody. Addition by subtraction works for morons.
