what 49er fans are saying

Arizona's defense is constantly put in short field positions because Palmer turns the ball over more than just about anyone in the NFL. You can't go by points or total yards when your offense puts you on the field a ton and puts you in bad positions.

You have to look deeper at the stats to get an accurate picture. The Cardinals are tied for the 6th best defense (tied with Carolina) in the league in yards per play. Seattle #2. Texans #3.

We have 2 common opponents, you got beat by both of them, we are 1-1.

And you use excuses for missed opportunities to explain your loss to Arizona, and I could do the same with Seattle. We left so many points on the field it was ridiculous. And you're hanging your hat on a loss at home. Try going to Seattle and playing. You're 7 points in the hole when you walk in the door there.

If its and buts were candy and nuts we'd all have a Merry Christmas.

I'm not hanging my hat on anything but what we are.....the best D you will face this season.

Yeah, the Tampa Bay Sucks just played out there....they did a LOT better than your mighty 9ers.

You aren't this juggernaut some paint. And AZ has only 3 more turnovers than Seattle for the record

You couldn't even score a TD against a team we killed.

 

Seattle's defense is better than yours.

 

You're right TB did better than us and everyone else that's played out there. So? They played Seattle better than you guys did too.

 

And who says we're a juggernaut? Some 21 year old keyboard jockey who never played football on a 49ers messageboard? If you've read any of teh rational 49ers fans posts, you'll know we're all nervous about this game. And rightly so.

Yeah, like our first drive where he stopped a wide open 5 yard TD pass to Smitty? That isn't a great D shutting us down......we shot yourselves in the foot repeatedly early and late. Sometimes teams don't bring there A game.....we didn't. AZ wasn't shutting is down if you watched it. From the first possession we were our own worst nightmare. It happens.

Seattle's D isn't better....it isn't supported in fact. There back 4 is better than our back 4......that's it.

Also Arizona and stomped them. They got a couple cheap scores late but we waxed them, and they stomped you guys. It goes both ways.

stomped?  we were in it until late, like within the last 5 mins.  we outgained them yardage-wise over 400 yards, but had too many miscues.  the game was far from a stomping, but since it was by far our worst game of the season, i guess it makes it feel that way.  i know i am going to use that terrible word "if" but two terrible drops wide open by Smith and Lafell early in the game would have netted us 14 points instead of 3, and the game is a different story.  our team is executing at a much higher level now but still has room to improve.  been looking forward to this game since the schedule came out, and it is not a do-or-die situation for either team.  and i will be rooting like hell for the Niners in a couple weeks when you guys play the saints.

According to you who ranks by yards per game, they are better than you. They are also better in YPP.

I know how a few drops/muscues can kill you. And just like your game against ARI, our game against Seattle was the same way. The score wasn;t indicative of the game itself.

 

We have also improved immensely since then.

    • I honestly can’t believe this team’s turnaround this season. It’s surreal. Figured healthy we’d be fringe playoffs and with another lottery pick could finally turn the corner, but we don’t even need that. This group is ready. We haven’t played remotely well the last 5 games and yet still blew out 5 bad teams by 16+ each game like it was casual practice. We had a few solid teams with Kemba and Big Al but this is easily our best group since the original Hornets moved to NO. Man, what a shift in culture this new ownership group and front office has brought. So damn happy to see it after years of suffering and consistently meaningless games in this stretch of previous seasons.   Only 2.5 games out of the 6 seed, although Miami, Atlanta and Orlando have been playing well too. Gonna be a fun final stretch, hopefully we can get a top 8 seed at the very least. Celtics tomorrow will be a good test. Would be huge to keep the road winning streak up against a very hot top team on the 2nd half of a back to back. We’ve played Boston pretty well the last few years with much of this same group despite sucking so I do feel pretty good about it. Kon is due for a huge game coming off a few cold shooting games (although despite the poor shooting he’s been contributing well with defense, assists and rebounds).
    • It amazes me how underrated Horn has become after he finally was able to stay on the field. Sure last year wasn’t perfect but he was still a huge reason for our rebound defensively and I’d say he’s easily a top 10 corner. You don’t want to see Mike Jackson as our top corner. Any player is available for the right price but I’d be extremely hesitant to move Horn even for a big haul from LA.
