A Win is a Win is a . . . Maybe It’s Me

Man, I guess I need to lower my standards. Glad the Niners won, but what looked like a cakewalk once the offense decided to get going after 30 minutes of frustration turned into a nail-biter as the offense sputtered its way for 3 quarters, and the defense decided the game was over after the conclusion of the 3rd quarter.

Par usual, every phase was good and bad. Well, special teams gets a solid B as they didn’t allow any big returns, despite Carlson not being able to reach the end zone. Carlson hit all his FG and XP attempts, but Wishnowski is not on his game. The guy we had in preseason should be looked at. He was booming kicks.

Purdy looked very skittish to start another game. Missing guys all over the place, and basically not hitting guys in stride. He settled down in the 3rd quarter and engineered 3 solid TD drives in the 3rd quarter, with the help of George Kittle. Deebo played and had a phenomenal 65 yrds TD called back due to offensive holding, and then got hurt.

Then Yertle the Turtle showed up and the offense went back into its shell. And Mr. Softy defense decided that we should go back to prevent and let Cee Dee Lamb simply catch everything thrown his way. Very key, and this reared up in the LA NFCCG game a few years back. 2nd and 1 from our own 30 and Kyle gets too conservative with the offense. Run up the middle stuffed, and the ubiquitous roll out that NEVER works as we still can’t figure out how to block a DE on a rollout to the right. Bell was guarded by 2 guys like Dallas knew it was coming and, punt.

From that point on, Shanny fucked up the play calling till near the end of the game, and the defense was just atrocious. Sorensen’s fear of blitzing is patently obvious, and colors the way these guys get burned in these obvious passing downs.

Yeah, we are 4-4 and gonna get healthier soon. And this bye week is desperately needed, but come on, guys. Pressure is the name of the game, and a better team would have completed this comeback.

Shanahan’s abject inability to put teams away is simply a problem that won’t go away. After scoring 3 TDs and forcing a punt, Guerendo gets 9 yards. 2nd and 1? Go with the QB sneak. No one has stopped that play, except for Shanahan. Later in the game, after the defense had given up 2 touchdowns (the 2nd one took all of 0:58 seconds) to close the game to a 6 point lead, on 2nd and 3, with Guerendo running amok and the Niners on the edge of FG range, Shanny calls some kind of rollout pass play that results in a 7 yard loss and of course on the next play, we get 5 yards back and punt.

Fucking STUPID! You are trying to run out the clock and you call for a pass play. This is shades of how Shanahan fucked up the Super Bowl with NE all those years ago. Shanny needs to pull his head out of his ass.

    I agree with you chuck we are not good enough to beat the good teams. I thought defense was gonna be our strength this year but I have never seen our defense give up such wide open TD’s as they did to Lamb. Totally unacceptable.

    But for Pearsall making an attempt for Puka 2.0 recognition we stumbled and bumbled our way to an ugly W. Timing on edges was atrocious with numerous holding calls as well.

    Goal line early 2nd quarter was a flaming joke. Nobody over the nose? WTF? Let EzE walk in why don’t we.

    Happy to piss on Jerry anyday but we’re taking on water and this ship is damn near rudderless with Shanny at the helm.

    Happy to hear of the security barrier incident prior to the game too. 1 for the ages 😁

    πŸ–• you Cowboys and πŸ–•you Bosa with the post game maga bullshit. Hope the league charges you ad rates when the fine is handed down.

      Yeah, sorry he did that. Lost all respect. Maybe when it gets cold he’ll wear a North Korean ear flap hat.

        Guess fascism is attractive to him Winder. I can’t understand how oblivious you can be to the grifting and corruption as adequate qualifications for POTUS.

        Yeah, I guess some Americans love for one man justifies the abuse and harm it will cause millions of Americans and Europeans. They should feel proud.

        You can throw in many people south of the border also.

      Let’s not forget the irony of Kaepernick getting blackballed for peaceful protest also.

      Add blatant racism to the list. What am I missing? The commander in chief decides who to serve?

    Heard that about C Ward. Tragic. That is just unbelievably painful.

    Fucking Bosa is a tool. I’d say prolly 1/4 of the NFL supports Trump. And about 90% of the owners. I saw him point at his hat as he walked by, but couldn’t read it.

    Should the Niners talk to the Colts about DeForest Buckner

  6. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Sure. They need interior run D and he’s the best. Fuck the draft picks. We waste them like toilet paper.

  7. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    Like I said most owners support Trump so the silence will be loud.
