    Kyle Shanahan & Trey Lance

    Trey's defense and special teams, as well as his surrounding offensive players should help him weather the inevitable bad QB days this upcoming season.

    Niners are going to the Super Bowl

    I agree, I think the 49ers win this comfortably. They are a more complete team on both sides of the ball, and specially on defense and the pass rush. KC's has a habit of falling behind and the 49ers have a habit of getting an early lead. I don't see either of those trends breaking. :mrgreen...

    Who do you like, 49ers or Packers?

    Agree. :irishdrinkers:

    NFC Final Playoff Picture

    Wilson is a dangerous player, and I for one am glad he's not coming to the Stick. As you said, he's one of the few players that give this franchise fits. The other was Lawrence Taylor.

    Well, 9ers are in the Super Bowl

    I can see it being a shoot out, but our defense can stall their offense enough to get a lead in the 4th Qtr, I think. :mrgreen:

    Marvin/Niner fans about Green Bay

    I thought that sack and first turnover on Aaron on the first play of the game set the tone of the game. Aaron was under a ton of pressure and the 49er offense was scoring at will. My advice is (as everyone said) pass rush and coverage against Green Bay, they can't really run the ball well for...

    Jimmy G can play

    Yup, this is the REAL stat that matters, in my opinion.

    This Week's Enemy Fan Forums: The San Francisco 49ers

    Agree, I'll just add that NFL franchise team value just kept going up and up during the '80's and '90's When the free agency money exploded - teams with small markets and poorer ownership were disadvantaged by richer market teams with richer owner who could pay more bonuses to a desired elite...

    Seahawks at Niners 11/11...

    I"m pretty sure Russell is going to put up at least as many points as Kyler did against the 49er defense, if not more, because Seattle's offense is so much more talented. I just hope the 49er offense can match Wilson - drive for drive and score for score.

    Seahawks at Niners 11/11...

    49ers have the number 1 rushing attack against a Seahawk defense that's ranked somewhere in the middle in rush defense. So, while Kittle looks like he isn't going to play, that rushing attack still has to be respected by the Seahawk defense. If that's the case, the Seattle pass defense becomes...

    This Week's Enemy Fan Forums: The San Francisco 49ers

    I think you are taking it a bit out of context. That's ok. But FYI the 49ers are one of the older franchises in the NFL. I think their first draft was somewhere just a year or two after the end of WWII. That means that there is a big base of fans of all colors, sizes and ages all across the...

    Seahawks at Niners 11/11...

    Well, from what I understand - it's not a season ending or career ending injury, thank god. :D He could be back in a week or possibly more, but hopefully he'll be ready and healthy if we make the playoffs.

    Seahawks at Niners 11/11...

    My understanding about Kocurek was that he gave Kyle a whole bunch of problems with his offense when he played against a Kocurek coached defense -- with (I think) the Lions and possibly the Dolphins. Because of that he was a fan of Kocurek's philosophy which isn't that far removed from Monte...

    Seahawks at Niners 11/11...

    Agree. I think the decision was made by Kyle this season to stop the pass first - hence the wide 9. Also agree that they might change the wide 9 to defend the run better in this particular game - specifically Russell getting out of the pocket and running bootlegs and read options. But any...

    This Week's Enemy Fan Forums: The San Francisco 49ers

    Regarding *old franchise* - keep in mind the 49ers and the Seahawks share a lot of connections. Without Walsh training Holmgren, I don't know where you guys would be during the Seattle Holmgren years, and without Seifert teaching Pete Carroll the 49er defense and how to develop and coach...

    Seahawks at Niners 11/11...

    This matchup reminds me of the old Joe Montana vs Steve Bartowski days (SF vs Atlanta - back when Atlanta was in the NFC west). Back then Joe would be Russel and Bartowski would be Jimmy from a mobility standpoint. :mrgreen: Having said that, I think being at home, the 49ers are going to...

    Seahawks at Niners 11/11...

    Kwon's loss is definitely a negative on the 49er defense. How big? Definitely on the pass coverage and pass defense side - it's a big loss. But I think Greenlaw will be adequate. Pete and Shottenheimer will scheme and attack Dre in coverage, I guarantee it. I can see them calling play...

    Seahawks at Niners 11/11...

    I agree if the 49ers fall behind. Kwon's loss will be a big liability on defense because the 'Hawks will start to run and start to strangle the 49er defense with the run game. However, if the 49er offense successfully controls the ball, and successfully plays keep away and maintains a good...

    Emmanuel Sanders traded to the 49ers

    I agree with both of you, and it is my hope that Sanders can mentor him to be a better WR. There is some comparison between Sanders and Pettis, and Sanders being a veteran with great playoff experience can mentor the young 49er WR's to play much better in the playoffs and in the coming years...

    Niners at Cards

    For the game as a whole, I think it was more of a function of the Niners not being able to run it and control the ball via the run. The cardinals had a great run defense that took the 49ers out of ball control runs. When the offense controls the ball, the defense will have great defensive...
