Re: Six and Two!
Chris Ivory SHREDDED us. That's a little funny. We still have Ingram, who had a career day at 19 yards. Hamstring looked better than Ingram's toe.
We sat Robinson to play Ingram? That right there screams that we don't really need this game. #5 beats HIMSELF. Again. And somehow we'll hold on to this clown because he has a career best as well. He needs to start a car dealership or something. Ben Watson, anyone? Calling BEN Watson... I don't know, maybe take a little heat off Graham? Jimmy Graham needs coaching, not contracting. I tend to think he's luckier than he is good. It's 50/50, like his ability to catch. Overall, a miserable day. We are not a Super Bowl team, but I'd be happy to eat that. Alaska |
HERE WE COME, TA GE' CHU!!!!

We've lost to two AFC teams and the 'hawks have lost to one, which equals 2 losses to 1. If we end in a tie with some team and have a better NFC record than them, then it's ok. But with losses like these, it's not likely we'll see a tie. |

What if they lose to the Bucs today? 21-7 at the half? Too much football left to be getting pissed, especially when you can't change any of it |

Our 2 losses have come to out of conference AFC teams, which you'd rather do than lose to teams in the NFC. If you lose conference games and division games early, you're constantly playing catchup trying to get back in line for the playoff hunt. How you finish in your conference deems where you fall in the playoffs. So it is a ranking per se. It's definitely a math equation and we're still doing fine in line to the playoffs, and we have the ability to correct problems and still have shot at home field advantage in the playoffs. So much football left to play, so much will happen between now and then. |

Re: Six and Two!
Halo, I hear what you're saying but it's all relative. We're mathematically fine as of now but the way this team has played is not a good sign especially considering the meat of our schedule is on the horizon.

maybe the seahawks do lose today. and maybe WE lose to the Bucs later on, considering we almost did the first time. We have to play better. The 49ers seem to be hitting their stride whereas the Saints and Seahawks seem to be regressing. |

I don't think there's any doubt about it. |

Re: Six and Two!
Actually if the Seahawks lose against the Bucs today, making them 7-2 with a loss to a NFC/AFC team we'll be tied for the NFC lead at 6-2 with 2 losses to the AFC
