What I find funny is that to many people have to much time oh their hand and wonder why the economy is the way it is.

You can use all and any stats you want to to make a point or use for an argument but when the day is done and the lights go out at the stadiums all that matter is the final score. That is really the only stat that matters.

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

stats are great-----
Here's an opinion: they have the best defense we've faced this year, except for maybe Houston, who we shredded for 40

Houston's defense looks like little girls compared to the 49ers defense

You guys are underrating the 49ers...they went 13-3 and earned home field.

Well Houston's defense is ranked higher than the niners. I'm not saying the niners defense isn't good but I think we can move the ball and score on them.

Houston gave up 17 ppg

49ers only gave up 14 ppg

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?

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

Most would consider the NYG defense one of the best in the NFL this year. Especially rushing the passer. Saints scored 49 on that defense at mid-season. Statistically, the Giants are ranked ahead of the 49ers in yards allowed, as are three other teams.

So who is your money on ---
1) A team with an offense considered to be one of the best of all time, and a 24th-ranked defense, playing away from home on grass or...
2) A team with, not the best but one of the better defenses in the league this year, and a 24th-ranked offense?

I know who my money's on.
