Ur ignoring my point

The 49ers have a legit defense

You can point at individual performances but it doesn't tell what went on the entire season

If drew throws for 400+ yards will we lose? Probly not...will drew throw for 400+ yards? Probly not

Drew has a weird way of making defenses look mediocre; I'll reserve my rebuttal until after the game...

back off topic again

Er Mitch. I think you need to simplify the question

And te Steelers got Tebowed

I agree that Brees should shred the 49ers defense. My analysis was based upon the claims that the 49ers defense was "elite". Well, it appears to be elite only when playing against less than elite running offenses. The Saints are a well balanced team and much of our passing game is based upon play action. So, if the 49ers can't slow down the three headed monster running from our backfield their secondary will be in for a long afternoon. The Lion's got a good dose on that on Saturday.

Romo = 345 yards

Stafford = 293 yards
Manning = 311 yards
Roethlisburger = 330 yards
against the 49ers defense

and I know that Drew is better than all of those, with the better O-Line than the previous examples...

All of those except Romo were losses. And the cowboys won in OT.

you missed the whole emphasis of this thread;

the OP was just showing that other teams moved the ball on your D. I took it a step further and showed that lesser QB's put 300+ passing yards on your D. And if you think that if Drew throws for 416 and you still win, you're delusional...

I think he is delusional even if Drew doesn't.

Come on. We definitely win this game.

I can say this: San Fran has got 60 minutes to figure out how to stop an offense that is the best in football. I can say this also: Aint' no way, Saints by15
