Week 10 Defense vs Playoff Defense


Recommended Posts

Nobody mentions this but the 49ers have a bit of an advantage as they are a playoff hardened team.  This is the third year in a row that a vast majority of this team has won in the playoffs, so they know what it takes, and have the confidence of a team who has already been there.  Now not to say carolina will be pissing down their leg, but that the 49ers are just more seasoned and preparead for this situation.  Doesnt mean carolina wont play tough though, as the 49ers in their first playoffs in nearly a decade went to the NFCC.   But, this could make a real difference, the mentality of the 49ers. 

 

The 49ers have also lost post season games the past 2 years, so yall are hardly the patriots of the Early 2000's or the 90's Cowboys.

A homer fan? Because i think having playoff experience vs a team who doesnt being an advantage, that makes me a homer?  There is nothing soft about a team who has 'been there' playing a team who hasnt.  I didnt say it would influence the outcome of the game.  It's as much as an advantage for the 49ers as carolina playing at home is for them.   Neither of those two factors will probably end up influencing who wins, but both clearly offer advantages in given situations.   Most noteably because the playoffs are a whole other animal compared to the regular season, and the 49ers have a bunch of guys who already know.  That's all that is, and that offers an advantage, whether you agree or not.  If NFL players are saying it, i will go with them over what you say on here.

 

Your right, you have playoff experience at losing and that will def help you understand defeat come Monday.

I'll add this point. I week 10 you didn't have to deal with Crabtree and Davis (through 2/3 of the game). When that happened you doubled Boldin and did one on one coverage with Kyle Williams (scrub) and V. McDonald (back up tight end). That allowed your defense to pin their ears back with seven in the box and blitz and clog up the running lanes. This time there are formidable receivers that you have to contend with and I like the coverage match ups against you secondary. You will need to adress the passing game more in this game which will hinder your opportunity to crowd the box.

 

 

Still it is on the road and this would be their third road game in a row against quality opponents the question is do the 49ers have enough gas in the tank.

    • Jack Roslovic: Only 2 other UFA, right-handed centers age 28 or under had more points (39) than him- Sam Bennett (51) and Pius Suter (46). There were 4 other centers age 33 and older who scored more: Gireaux (37), Marchand (37), Tavares (34), Granlund (33).  Unless the Canes go old, if they let Jack walk, they won't get a center who scored more.  Thoughts? 
    • nope     This is why we come back every year.  Hope springs eternal
    • It's important to differentiate criticism and hate. I can't speak for that individual you quoted. But most people who have been critical of the Tepper's have been so because both of them have made it a point to put themselves front and center and in the middle of team operations and we have been largely horrific more often than not as a result. If people are making derogatory remarks about her that should be met with an appropriate response but if people are being defensive just because she's being criticized all I can say is people should get used to it. Both her and David would have been getting absolutely skewered by the media and the fans if this were a big market franchise. The Lakers are finally being sold off after years and years of public criticism of Jeannie Buss and even though I'm the furthest you could go from being a Lakers fan just about anyone you could meet who is familiar with the NBA would say the criticism was certainly valid.
