San Fran is not a bad team. They had the Falcons beat until Nate Clements fumbled an INT return when he should have taken a knee and the game would have been over. They have been done in by poor late game execution and bad coaching (Singletary is not ready to be an NFL coach).

Keep in mind probably the only reason we won was because David Carr was under center.

Every game on every Sunday has a situation like that, where something is out of the oridinary. You can't say that's the ONLY reason we won. For all we know next Sunday, Sam Bradford could have a bad day, or their defense or we could just play even better. Or we might suck.

There is no ideal, consistent game week after week. That was one of the inconsistencies. We could also say the only reason we didn't BLOW OUT the 49'ers is because our run game has yet to take off. I mean there is like a million combinations. Every week, a win is attributed to multiple factors for or against a team. That was one of them that worked out in our favor.

In the end, when all is said and done, we played good enough to win. In the end that's what matters.

You could also look at it from this perspective - we passed up a sure 3 by going for it on 4th down (The Gettis miss), then held them to get the ball back and score the tieing TD (which would have been a go ahead score if we had kicked the 3 earlier).

you can go crazy with all the what ifs and maybe's.

This is not the BCS, a win by 3, 30 or 1, all count the same - I am more happy for an interesting game to watch for a change. I'm happy we won, but more happy that we didn't roll over and mail it in.

David Carr being just prevented them from passing for a single first down for almost an entire half.

Yeah, stuff like that happens all the time.

Bottom line, our defense looked meh, and our offense looked like it is improving but is still very much meh.

Great we won, but we're not yet to the competitive level. Complain about the truth if you want, but the same people on here that are getting pumped about this win are the same one's that will cry in utter disbelief when most of the rest of our schedule shows how pathetic our offense really is.

How much football do you watch? It happens each and EVERY week we've had our backup play along with about 15 other teams it happens. No one cares if your backup is good enough to complete passes ask any cowgirls fans. Or steelers or Lions down to there third string or arizona or bears etc. Thats an exscuse no one cares who is playing qb the are paid to do their job like everyone else. poo they werent saying oh we beat the panthers and Jimmy C because he couldnt move the ball it was simply we beat the Panthers end of story.

The rest of our schedule is actually against lessers defenses than we have seen? What are you talking about the only defensive test are B.more and Pitt. wow the mighty ATL d or the rams what about NO who Jimmy could have beat or Az man please it gets easier for our offense not harder. Oh yeah the browns 24th in the league our O may have been pathetic but we are on track might not be fixed but we are leaps and bounds ahead of where we were and with a few weak defenses the next few weeks we should be good to go.

      The running back situation....

      By strato · Posted

      okay I found this and it sounds like my hopes for the first surgery being not such a great job seems like it could be actual reality.  I only hoped because that would give a better chance for recovery and ia a possible scenario so I just thought it could be possible. Had no real evidence of it. But I’ll be damned.    This is a detailed report of Brooks’ surgery and the condition of his knee after the failed repair.     https://x.com/jmthrivept/status/2055743129408704806?s= Sparked by some very good questions by @CoachspeakIndex, here’s some info on Jonathon Brooks: 1. Speculation that the first graft/ACLR by Dr. Cooper didn’t “take” or at least was too lax, leading to failure and re-tear. Brooks dealt with issues cutting, progressing in his rehab into the early stages of 2024 and then re-tore it late 2024, requiring a second ACLR in January 2025 (essentially revision). Notably, CAR prolonged Brooks’ rehab process through Sept-Oct due to issues progressing into the next stages of rehab. 2. Second surgery performed by Dr. Neal ElAttrache, who has extensive experience with revisions. He did a double bundle technique, harvesting graft from Brooks’ left patellar tendon and a strip of his right IT Band (his right patellar tendon had been utilized for the prior graft in 2023. The double bundle technique significantly increases rotational stability of the knee, leading to a stronger and more secure graft/reconstruction. Also to note, Brooks’ surgery wasn’t significantly delayed, meaning that the tunnels from his prior ACLR were in good shape and they didn’t need to perform bone grafts to fill in (would have delayed 2nd surgery by 5-6 months). Essentially, reading the tea leaves tells me that everything else except for the graft itself was still in good quality within his knee. Good sign for future.  3. Typically, you see a performance increase anywhere from 16-20 months post-revision. Brooks will be ~21 months out from his second surgery by the time Week 1 hits. His knee should be more stable and stronger this time around, with adequate time for healing and return to all movement patterns. I’m not viewing this situation as a typical “Player __ had TWO ACL tears, he’s cooked” situation. Rather, I’m viewing it as the first procedure failed, but the second procedure is significantly stronger and should allow him to return to form this time around. I don’t know why it posted as a link but there it is.

      How can you say they aren’t trying to win now with all the moves made in free agency? Or is trading first round picks the only way to be win now? I’d be fine never trading another first round pick again, win now be damned.
