the forecast is high 50's and sunny all week, so a wet field would be a little suspect, huh?

I think we played them in Mon or Sun nite game last year. Anyone remember the conditions? I know we were up and let them come back

Truth be known, this was the team I did not want to play, young, hungry, and really a good team. We moved the ball on a good D at will tonight the entire game. Their O is good also, they have racked up a lot of yards all year. The 1st half our D played fairly well considering how long they were on the field {2 turnovers} the 2nd half our D seemed to do better and got 2 turnovers for us. If I graded the D tonight B-......

Still some challenges to come next week. Gore is a man and Vernon Davis is as dynamic a TE threat as they come. We seem to be fairly stout vs the run though so I will want to see if Alex Smith can do it with his arm. I think our D can hold their own.

Offensively they may be able to negate our run game but Drew and the passing attack is still too much. They have some nice edge rushers but our weapons outnumber them.

Same next week as it has been in weeks prior: Keep Brees clean and I like our chances.

What I'm wondering is if their defense is si good how did they give up 24 points to the rams?yeah I know we lost to the rams but just saying that I'm not as scared of that defense as most are

I said this elsewhere before...the 49ers defense is really good, one of the better ones, but it's only like a lock that "safecracker Drew" has to pick...he surveys it from a distance, creeps into town, puts his ear up to the vault, licks his palms, concentrates, he twiddles and turns the knobs, and it will open up...he has cracked open tough defenses before and it will be a rather stressful game because cracking a defense takes time, but he will turn the dials and get it right!

When all is said and done we won the game and I'll take our D over a couch potato anyday. You couldn't tackle the waterboy, so why should your opinion matter? Just because you have one? I trust our defense and have a lot of respect for the job they get done. It isn't a cake walk. They are amazing human beings, if you ask me. Far more than some of the fans. Merely an opinion.

Wow, what a jerk.

Is your ass jealous of what comes out of your mouth?

To paraphrase your post, we have an amazing defense and the only one entitled to a opinion here is you

"Amazing" is not a relative term, it is a comparative. So, our defense's ability to tackle better than me, but worse than Balt, Pitt, and San Fran does not make them amazing.

as for my opinion, I believe the 1st amendment gives me that entitlement
