kaepernick was 1-5 for 4 yards yesterday.

thats not a misprint.

got benched in the 4th qtr.

he carved up our defense the week before.

we need to run the ball and control time of possession, keep our D off the field as much as possible.

I'm no Kaep fan, but the dude was playing in a blizzard.
 
I take every game as different. I used to do this sort if thing but quit. There are so many factors to consider on a week to week basis and different matchups from team to team. Unless it's the Patriots or a few others I literally don't believe in team A is good, team B is not team A should blow out team B. Too many things we can't quantify in most cases.

Example maybe Kap and Kelly prepared better for us. We'll never know.

Our defense seems to get tired just by running out into the field. Mark my words, no less than 5 new starters on defense next year

Ozzy rules!!
 
Maybe but 5 defensive starters is a lot to replace in one year.
 
Look, the 49'ers game did warn us ... it warned everyone ... our defense is threadbare at LB and scheming to protect the loss of Reshad Jones and Xavien Howard in the secondary. It would be nice of Mario Williams from earlier this decade showed up, but methinks that bear has hibernated already.

So, Kaepernick has shown that you don't need to throw against us if you have a running QB, because our LB's are that bad. Just avoid Kiko and you're good. Flacco showed us that those same poor LB's (Hewitt, Paysinger, Jenkins, Hull) cannot cover either. Look, many of us knew that since before the season began ... and knew it's been obvious to opponents since before Phillip Wheeler set the brown-standard so low it could not be limbo'ed under. Nothing has changed ... Misi and Jenkins are still injured. The atrocious NY Giants defense didn't even want special teamer Spencer Paysinger ... yet he's starting now. It doesn't take a marine biologist to spot a 25' great white shark surfacing near the boat. Those jaws are rather obvious ... and scary. Our LB's are even scarier.
 
49ers? We barely got by the Chargers...who love to give away games...which they did. And then the Rams with a rookie QB pretty much owned the game; except for the last 5 minutes.

People like to say a W is a W...but you can also look at how you played to get those W's...and it wasn't pretty.

True it wasn't pretty but we clawed and fought our way to wins which is something decidedly new. The playoff talk was definitely premature especially with the extremely difficult 5 game finish. In order to keep winning we definitely would need to get most if not all the bounces. Sunday was evidence of that not happening and a glimpse of what is likely to come.

If it wasn't for that block in the back 15 yards behind the play taking away the first down the Rams most likely win easily.

And the 49ers were bizarrely milking clock like they were up by 10 instead of down by 10. Chip Kelly, the guy thats broken all the NFL records for speed of play decides to use the entire playclock down by ten in the fourth quarter. If it made any sense for any of the parties involved I would think they were trying to lose the game on purpose.

He is. He wants DWatson or Kizer.

I thought the Rams against were trying to lose on purpose based on their play calling against us in that 4th quarter. #JustFisherThings

How many top coaching staffs did Miami face in the 6 wins? Not to downplay Gase - the team is clearly better in a number of areas than fans have seen in years, but he was taken to school on game-planning by BALT.

Chip Kelly has been ridiculed all through out his NFL career for his misuse of time management. One for the offense not using enough clock during the game that puts his defense at a disadvantage and two for misusing and wasting it in the final moments when it's needed most.

If not for just simply being a fan, I wish we would win more often to keep from having to read such BS.
