Steve has a thing against Pete I think. He was entirely dismissive of us in the week 1 pregame against the Broncos and has yet to guve up his position entirely that we're just a nice story that's bound to end before the season does.
As to posts that say the 9ers are obviously better? They may have been better in week 2 but I certainly don't see that now. And I certainly don't think they have a better qb than we do. Running game? We are solid. Defense? The last 3 weeks, we've been as good as anyone in the league.
And remember that in that week 2 contest, our defense was still getting acclimated, we had yet to run the ball effectively, and the score could gave EASILY been 13 - 7 at one point had we just played it straight instead of letting our 2nd string RB attempt a pass that should have never been taken out ofnthe hands of our MVP qb. We also had a huge play to DK called back on a BS penalty. Both plays could have changed the complexion of that game entirely.
But you live and you learn.
The 9ers under Garapolo don't scare me. If anything, they should be afraid of the hype train the Hawks will be riding over them when they come into town. We were embarrassed by them when we went down there. Our D in particular will be eager to set the record straight. That game will without a doubt bring with it the intensity of our old rivalry. And this time, we will be ready.
As to Steve Young, dude was a great QB, he's pretty smart, but he's a bit of a wiener if you ask me. Never had the class of the guy he replaced in SF.
Steve Young can kick rocks. Will be great to watch him try to save face after the Hawks pound his former team into submission.
