We got it together as the game went on... You can't sit and tell me we looked great. Those overthrown balls, bad calls, (play calling by us), etc won't cut it when playoffs happen. Everything is in place, just need to mold more. We see slight glimpses of it.

Let's get it against the Texans next week. I'm in Houston and idk if I can handle being bashed the way the Texans bash the Cowboys here. Seriously, Texans fans are worse than Cowboys fans.

Man! First shut out sinc october 30 last year when we beat the Raiders.

* Carl Granderson my hat is off to you! Terrific game. He is growing into a complete player doing great work both against the pass and run.

* I love how bothe Jordan and CG does the jump rush to the outside. if executed correctly it is a b*tch to block because it creates a whole new angle than what you expected.

* Michael Thomas is still doing great work on those tough catches.

* Olave can do better than this game.

* Davis still a heavy hitter. The play he made on the 3rd and short was a thing of beauty.

* I really like our interior DL. We got a solid group there.

* O-line looked better than before but still a lot of room for improvement.

* Kendre Miller, the play where he VIOLENTLY chip-blocked and then caught a short pass and took it 33 yds, just loved it.

*Rushing average needs to improve. A lots of times it lookes like the holes are there but our RBs just don't hit 'em really hard.

* Our D is getting opportunistic. This is a very good thing.

Not to be a wet blanket but I need to see MUCH more from the coaches before I get excited again.

We routed a terrible Raiders team last year then promptly lost the next 4 of 5 games.

I'll provide an example.

PENALTIES & FALSE STARTS. At the PRE SNAP. 5 WEEKS into the season, it's still happening.

That's discipline. Coaching.

Sorry but Allen and Carmichael aren't off the hook with me beating a non contender on yesterday. Clean up that pre snap stuff immediately.

Beating the more difficult teams/contenders won't be this easy with those bone headed penalties.

Interestingly enough, the Saints have only three more total accepted penalties than does the 49er's after five games (36 - 33). Both teams have the same number of pre-snap penalties after the same five games with 11.

The Eagles have one more pre-snap penalty than does the Saints and the 49er's with 12 for the season. Dallas is sitting at 16 pre-snap penalties to date for 2023.

This makes sense since all of the teams that involve a lot of motion in their offenses are getting a greater number of pre-snap penalties. It comes with the territory.

	W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground.
