Everyone stop crying about the refs

Yeah the 49ers got 90% of the close calls but the Panthers just flat out did not play well enough to win. A perfectly officiated game and we still lose. Panthers had plenty of opportunities to make plays and they just didn't make it happen. 49ers deserved the W today, I'm not going to whine about a couple calls, that crap is embarrassing.

In any event this year was a great step for the organization. Rivera did a complete 180 as a HC. Gettleman infused the D with a ton of talent and built the #2 defense in just one offseason. I'm looking forward to seeing him revamp the offense in a similar fashion this offseason. Go Panthers

You have no basis for saying that. All of the 49ers points came off of bad calls either on the play or earlier in the drive. It very well could have been a shut out with "a perfectly officiated game."

At the end of the first half I'd have told you to go fug yourself. That was disgustingly lopsided to the point that the announcers were pointing poo out. The refs flat out kept the 49ers in the game.

 

We poo the bed in the second half and got blown the fug up. No excuses there.

I got over the calls in the 2nd half because I thought the 49ers were a better team. The difference in this game was the 49ers Defense outplayed Carolina's Defense when it mattered most (i.e turnovers, sacks, 3rd down and 4th down conversions). Our defense was not able to get the 49ers offense off the field on 3rd down.

The refs were an abortion, no way around it regardless of what you say. It was as bad as replacement refs. The offense has to be focused on this offseason and hopefully cam will get some weapons, but lets not act like gettleman did it all in 1 offseason. He was left with pieces like CJ, Hardy, Kuechly, and Thomas Davis which were the foundation of this defense.

    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it. 
    • If you plug Bryce onto the Pro Bowl roster you might have a chance to compete for a SB. If he's surrounded by top tier talent with a top tier defense on the other side, a field flipping punter, and a kicker good from 60+ you might have a chance. But that means you basically have to recreate Saban's Bama in the NFL and that's impossible... and Bryce couldn't win a championship in that environment either. What the Panthers didn't realize when they got so obsessed with his "PG mentality" was that what they were looking st was a "barely checks the box PG". The basketball equivalent of Bryce would be an undersized PG with marginal athleticism who can make the basic plays but adds nothing to the team in terms of elevating the overall team. Not a great shooter, not a great defender, not a great driver. Just a guy who can basically get you into the offense and be a matador on defense. Basically a placeholder while you look to upgrade the PG position.
