Good news for the 49ers at least is that CMC looks to have his practice window open tomorrow and for him to be ready for the Tampa game. Jauan Jennings as well. Will that help the red zone difficulties? Yeah, it should.
Will it help this team close a fucking game? One would hope. The galling thing about this team IS its inability to close games out. Seattle and Dallas, our last 2 wins, saw a 20 point AND 17 lead nearly vanish after the earlier leads blown against the Rams and Cards. Something that has been a thorn in Shanny’s side since that Falcon Super Bowl years back.
But shit, Philly had a 22 point halftime lead against the awful, now 2-7, Jags and were on the hook to lose after screwing the pooch the entire 2nd half, but for a really stupid throw by Trevor (amIoverrated?) Lawrence. The 6-2 Texans couldn’t handle the 2-6 Jets. The Ravens look like the best team in the NFL, but lose to the Raiders and Browns? Come on, man!
I mean, it looks like the best team in the NFL, and to me it looks like a landslide, it the Deetroit Lions. KC is solid, if not very consistent offensively. Balt can just lay a turd at any moment. Minnesota? Shit, I just watched Darnold throw a terrible pick and see one dropped earlier as they struggle with the 4-4 Colts and the geriatric Joe Flucco.
All I seem to see this year is too many games with a fucking shit ton of pre-snap flags, false starts, illegal formations, wildly inconsistent play, and awful coaching. Going for it on 4th down is now the stupid idea of the season. Sure, there’s a time and place. But coaches don’t seem toi understand that if you THINK you are in a position where you are gonna go for it, that should dictate your decisions on 2nd and 3rd down not just think, hey, I’ll run it up the middle! That’ll fool them!
If you think you can run for it, ONE of those 3 plays should be a pass. Better 2nd than 3rd, the obvious passing down. Too many times I see 3 runs up the middle for nothing. Or the obligatory 3rd down pass that ends up with a throw-away or a blitz sack. Then the 4th and 1 stuff.
San Francisco 49ers Forever 
I needed a by week just as much as the Niners did. All I did yesterday was glance at some scores. No stress or anguish. Did go to the final Blue Angels show of the year Saturday in Pensacola. Since it’s the home base for the Blue Angels it is a really big deal here. There w.ere thousands of people there and they turned almost just as many people away because there was no room to park. The Thunderbirds were here also so it was a really good show. I has seen both years ago so it wasn’t new to me and I used to go to Moffet field when they came to town or just go out to our street to watch em fly over. But my favorite was the old P36 hawk.
Mather AFB in Sacto still has a great airshow in early September. When I lived in Roseville I went to a bunch of them.
Yeah, it was a nice break from all the election bullshit. If I was way younger I would be an activist but as it is all I got is one vote.
New thread.
