  2. Man, those Lions. Had the game in the bag for their first win...

    ReplyDelete
  3. But good on the Lions! Managed a 2-minute drill comeback win, to sink the Vikings. That one helps out the 49ers!

    1. Zimmer didn't bring pressure on Goff. Dumb.

    2. The 49ers have been swept by a team that DOESN'T EVEN KNOW HOW TO DRAFT, two seasons in a row! That's pathetic!

      Delete
    3. Jimmy's in his EIGHTH season, and he still can't read underneath coverage!

      What's up with that, Razor?

    4. This is exactly why I wasn't prepared to go another season with a seriously flawed NFL QB!

    1. Is it just me or does it feel like opponents are running trick plays against the 49ers a fair bit in recent weeks? And generally having success.

      Delete
    2. Obviously teams feel the 49ers can be fooled... and so far are correct.

  7. This is what often happens when one "sticks to the run game". Two runs to nowhere and 3 and 10 from the their 15 yard line. Three and out.

    1. That's pretty short sighted imo. You'll have those type of drives every now and then. The aim should be over the course of the game that if you stick with it you will wear the defense down.

      Delete
  8. Can you say DJ?! Two big plays by Jones, then 49ers take advanatage of the Seahawks DJ letting Kittle run free.

    DJ Jones has been the 49ers best DT this year.

    1. His game-to-game consistency has definitely improved this season. He'll be re-signed.

  9. Norman's teaching the kids how to take away the toys...

    ReplyDelete
  10. That sure negates the Hawks momentum. Nice pass and catch.

    ReplyDelete
  11. Nice. The now patented early-game-Jimmy-G-high-throw reeled in my Kittle.

    ReplyDelete
  12. Razor was right about the AD fumble!

    ReplyDelete
  13. And that is why you stick with the run. Good grief JG.

    Another one razor called - JG not seeing the Seahawks LBs.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Niners settle down and if you do you got this game.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Jimmy, you got bailed out by Bosa and the D. Don't screw up again.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Good things happen when they commit to the run.

    1. They are a running team and yes good things happen.

  17. Al-Shaair covers every inch of the football field. What a ILB this kid has turned into.

    ReplyDelete
  18. That drive highlighted why you stick with the run. Defense starting to tire, drop off tackles. Penalties cruelled the drive i the end, but that drive bodes well for the 49ers offense.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Man, teams are clearly seeing a weakness against trick plays atm.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Seattle offense is so bad right now they need trick plays to get anything.

      Delete
  20. Glad to see the DB's hang with Locket in years past that would have. been a touchdown

    ReplyDelete
  21. Kittle is such an amazing athlete for his size. Incredible balance there.

    Great block by Jennings too.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Man, STs have been awful in both games against the Sahawks this year.

    ReplyDelete

    1. And more again. Penalties creeping back into the game on D, giving away cheap yards.

      Delete
  24. Just a total lack of defensive discipline. Absolutely embarrassing!

    1. Way to let a team right back in the game right before halftime.

      Delete
  25. Starts again with special teams giving up big return yardage and followed by penalties...

    ReplyDelete
  26. And Robbie Gould has turned into the most overpaid kicker in the league.

    ReplyDelete
  27. OK, now that I got that off my chest .... the good news is the Niners do have a lead and they receive the kickoff. Let's GO NINERS! Keep feeding Mitchell & Kittle, and let's get Aiyuk involved in the 2nd half.

    1. Yep. Seahawks are having some success targeting Lenoir.

      Delete
    2. It sure is but it's not the reason for the score being so close.

      Delete
  29. Nothing like a game against the Niners to get Wilson going.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Looks like Seattle wants this game more than us. Boneheaded mistakes all around. :(

    The first drive after the half from niners is going to be critical. Long 10-play drive with a TD would be nice! Go Get'Em guys!

  32. Honestly, f the 49ers STs units. Disgraceful.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Wow crazy just crazy thank goodness

  34. Massive stroke of luck. That should have been a TD.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Hah! Will have Russ thinking of the Super Bowl!

  36. Nice impersonation of a speed bump by Compton there.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Terrible decision making by Jimmy G

    ReplyDelete
  38. This is problem with running the ball into the teeth of the defense which is selling out to stop the run, especially on the edge. Niners are averagi8ng 8.2 yards to go on the third down which sets up obvious passing downs with a weak O line on the right.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Running from inside the 5 is hardly unusual.

      Delete
    2. The 8.2 to go on third is for the entire game. Of course, playing from one's 5 yard line restricts options mostly to the run. But the box has been 8-men for most of the game.

      Delete
    3. Yet when they commit to the run they also score points. While when they try and go pass heavy they give the ball away. We've seen this all before.

      Delete
  39. Kyle will have to cook up plays to loosen the box -- can't continue to have these third and longs. Some screens or other short passes.

    ReplyDelete
  40. That is why we run the ball. Damn JG

    ReplyDelete
  41. So they go pass heavy... and that happens. Seriously, JG simply is not good enough to run a pass heavy offense. His decision making lets him down too often.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Well, play calling does assume competent QB play. Can't design a game plan based on avoiding silly mistakes.

      Delete
    2. Mood, I get why you believe taking advanatge of a team trying to stop the run is to switch to passing. Why Shanahan believes this. It 100% makes sense.

      But the problem is you need to have a QB that is able to lead such an offense. We've seen time and again JG can't do it consistently. That is why it is a mistake to try, and a mistake to go away from the run.

      Delete
    3. If Kyle has to assume that his QB can't complete passes to the middle of the field (the staple area for throwing in Kyle's scheme) without throwing interceptions, then he has two choices:

      1. Go 3 and out by running the ball against a D that will stack 8-9 in the box. Then lose TOP by 1 to 2, tire the defense and lose by 2-3 scores.

      2. Switch QBs.

      Delete
    4. 3. Keep the defense honest defending the run, but also mix in passes on 1st and 2nd down here and there, and trust JG to convert 3rd downs.

      I'm not saying they need to go 2:1 run vs pass. But they can't go pass heavy.

      Delete
    5. Well, then you and are in agreement about passing the ball to allow runs to be successful.

      Delete
    6. Yes. That hasn't been something I have argued against.

      But what is abundantly clear is that while teams are showing 8-9 in the box they are also trying to egg Shanahan into passing. They are playing the passing game aggressively too. The 49ers need to commit to the run to make teams not only bring extra men in the box, but also loosen up passing opportunities and take the pressure off JG to be making good decisions consistently.

    7. This is where we disagree. We will discuss later.

  42. Kyle's PISSED, and he should be!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. But we knew this version of Jimmy was ready to rear his head at anytime, because he's an INCONSISTENT QB by nature! Has been his entire 49ers career, and that's if he can even stay healthy!

      Delete
    2. Yah, and I think the biggest problem today is the Seattle doesn't view Jimmy as a threat to beat them deep, therefore they just cram stack the box on every down!

      Delete
    3. Outcoached by the 2021 version of Pete Carrol? OUCH!

      4 straight for Pete over Kyle, who just can't find a way to get the Ferrari out of the garage!

  43. Niners beating themselves in all three phases

    ReplyDelete
  44. Seriously, what was that play call? Good thing Mack's sweaty hands stopped that.

    ReplyDelete
  45. There are so many reasons why the Niners are losing this game...maybe too many to list.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I just don't understand why Trey can't run a few Wild cat / Zone read hybrid plays?

    How is Kyle a genius?


    That's like calling someone who can't even get his Ferrari out of the garage - Mario Andretti

  47. Aiyuk seems to commits mistakes when he tries hard.

    ReplyDelete
  48. Hate to say it but this game is over

    ReplyDelete
  49. Niners still gasping -- thanks to Kittle.

  50. I CALL IT THE BIG TEASE! The GIF sums up my feels of the 9ers (as Charlie Brown), with JG (as Lucy) the 9ers QB!
    Just when you begin to believe, the ball is pulled away!

  52. 96 yards. 3 short. Typical Niners Hawks outcome.

    It’s too bad Niners couldn’t put the final nail in the Seahawks coffin. But likely Wilson is gone from Seattle next season. Niners will have a new QB, the rivalry gets restarted from scratch.

    ReplyDelete
  53. BTW, Sherfield was mugged on that 3rd and goal. /Zimmer

    ReplyDelete
  54. Squawks sweep Niners two seasons in a row. We just can't beat a RW quarterbacked team. Get him out of the division already.

    ReplyDelete
  55. After watching this game, I understand why Sherfield was not playing.

    ReplyDelete
  56. Kyle's mismanagement of the CB's is probably Kyle's biggest sin, but his inability to move on from a QB whom he knew wasn't quite good enough, was the final straw that broke the 49ers back in 2021!

    ReplyDelete
  57. Including Trey Lance, this is the most talented .500 team I've ever seen.
