Not in Frisco, man! When the lights go out at Candlestick, they go out every 20 minutes, all throughout the freaking game! The lights may well go out on Saturday, and Drew will still have plenty of time left to win! Who knows, they may even flip the switch on us, just to try and slow our offense down, LOL

Houston gave up 17 ppg

49ers only gave up 14 ppg

Here is another good "stupid" quote.

"if stupid was fatal we'd be stepping over bodies all day long."

So you're calling the Houston defense (#4 in the NFL) little girls compared to the 49er (#2 in the NFL)?

Wow, whats number 6, embryos?

That reminds me of the bit by the late great George Carlin.
Be warned Carlin uses many of his "seven words"

I was referring to total defense and i believe we had something to do with the points average going up on the Texans.

Have you watched the 49ers play? They didn't give up a rushing td for 3/4 of the season

They held the steelers to 3 points

They Have the best redzone defense in the league

Ppl say we give up yards but don't give up TDs

Well the 49ers are the best in the league at preventing Tds
