49ers Gameday Thread: Week 4: 49ers at Eagles - Page 4

Frank The Tank.

Also, I anticipate the defense blows the next possession and offense can't score to win with a minute left or so.

Ness · 10-02-2011, 03:14 PM

Wouldn't it be fitting for that stupid rookie kicker to make a 50 yard field goal against the 49ers?

Ness · 10-02-2011, 03:14 PM

Or I could see Jackson burning the 49ers for a TD.

Madirishman · 10-02-2011, 03:20 PM

Justin Smith with a HUUUUUUGGGGGEEEEE hustle play, getting the fumble from behind on Maclin. What an amazing play for a 3/4 DE. He is the most underrated DE in the league by far. So consistent.

Niners have the lead and the ball with 2:00 left. Can they step on the Eagles throat?

Borat · 10-02-2011, 03:20 PM

Or Maclin could fumble.

Borat · 10-02-2011, 03:23 PM

Come on. Please hold the lead. I want a win IN Philly so damn badly.

Brent · 10-02-2011, 03:27 PM

I am soooooooo pumped.

Rabscuttle · 10-02-2011, 03:27 PM

I've said it before, Only Ngata is a better 3-4 end than Smith. Nobody that size hustles game in game out like he does either.

Did not expect the W, did you guys see that stat? First back to back road wins since '06... Under Walsh we had at least one season where we were 8-0 on the road.

Borat · 10-02-2011, 03:27 PM

Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss s!

Borat · 10-02-2011, 03:30 PM

**** you Philly. Go play with your snowballs.

hawkeye123 · 10-02-2011, 03:30 PM

Feels awesome to finally get a win vs a legit team and not a moral win.

Borat · 10-02-2011, 03:33 PM

We should be 4-0 :(

Borat · 10-02-2011, 03:33 PM

Ness, you want me to delete your post from earlier lol

Funny when I said that, they got back on track. I should go off every week. I think they got the message. It's about time we saw this kind of performance. It's been way too long.

I was thinking the same exact thing. The game changed about 30 seconds after you wrote that.

Edit: I feel your frustration though. We just gotta keep putting up with the crap and wait for the good times to come back to us.

That sums it up. I spent the last 3 minutes of the game talking myself into another moral victory/crushing loss. I can't wait for 49ers.com to post Jim Harbaugh's post game locker room speech. Loved that SF forced 3 turnovers.

Brent · 10-02-2011, 03:42 PM

It was a complete 180 in playcalling

Exactly. When given opportunity the offense has had halves like this, but it is always because they are backed into letting Alex win it that this happens. Playing not to lose just puts mileage on Frank and frown lines on our faces. If they really want to see if Alex has it or not they have to take the governor off and let him prove it or disprove it. This not knowing is just wasting time.

And bench Davis for a game. Reward Boone for working his ass off and let Davis have a different vantage point for the next game.

You should never talk yourself into accepting a moral victory or loss.

Ness · 10-02-2011, 03:58 PM

We have the Buccaneers next. I hope we get pressure on Josh Freeman. I think we'll bottle up Blount. That guy is strictly a north/south runner like Benson. Bowman has been a megastar this season. Our secondary has to play better though. We're giving up way too many pass yards.

When you have been a 49ers and (I'll throw in) Golden State Warriors fan for so long it becomes a bad habit.

This is the offense I've been waiting for.

VAfy-ya · 10-02-2011, 04:01 PM

LOL@all those saying Gore was done. All Gore needed was a few rushing lanes and the playbook to be opened up a little. Over 8 yards a carry.....and on a bum ankle no less

Madirishman · 10-02-2011, 04:05 PM

Hopefully, this gives Harbaugh more confidence to dig deeper into his playbook. They don't need to be super aggressive with Alex; just more aggressive at times, picking their spots and being much less predictable, opening up the run game.

They're 3-1 but they've squeaked out wins. On the right track but still a lot to prove.
