Well, sort of... :sosp:

Per Michael Silver, the idea for the final play to Vernon Davis came from Niners QB coach - and former Panthers staff member - Geep Chryst.

How did Chryst come up with the idea? By thinking back to his days of facing the Saints while working for the Panthers :D

Pertinent excerpt:

For all the credit that Harbaugh has deservedly received for the Niners’ dramatic turnaround, his assistants have also played a key role. In fact, a conversation early last week between offensive coordinator Greg Roman and quarterbacks coach Geep Chryst lay the foundation for Davis’ dramatic catch. “I’ve got to give our quarterbacks coach a lot of credit,” Roman said Sunday night while taking a break from studying film on the Giants. “He called me into his office and said he had an idea for a red-zone play against them, and he was just so emphatic about it. He previously worked for the Panthers and was very familiar with their defense, and he came up with something he thought would work. And when I saw it, I got excited, too.

And something worth remembering for the future.

The play, “Vernon Post,” is predicated on the theory that the Saints are adept at covering the whole end zone in that situation, rather than leaving the back exposed. “They do a better job than most teams of defending the entire depth,” Roman explained. “Their safeties sit right inside the goal line and are really flat-footed – and if you go vertical on [Harper], he starts to pedal softly backwards. So there’s a hole for the tight end, and it’s got to be thrown with perfect timing and rhythm.”

We should have taken Carlos Rogers last off season.. :sad:

no no no no no! rogers is one of those evil outside free agents!

why in the world would we pay $2.13 million for a pro bowl CB when he's from a -gasp- different team

much better to reward our own guys, like giving $72 million for a DE to get 9 sacks or $43 million for a RB to get 9 carries a game

duh man, JR and hurney know what they're doing!

MUUUUAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

As if it wasn't satisfying enough watching the Saints lose while Roman Harper rolled around on the turf like a little b*tch, now we find out our former TE coach drew up the play to expose a specific weakness in the Saints defense that he learned while he was on our payroll.

If this is true then my hat's off to Geep Chryst.

      Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.

      Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
