A win is a win, but...

I am not super-excited to see White as the no. 2 corner but he seems better prepared for it than anybody else we got.

I think Corey will play good, plus with two 6ft Corners who can play press coverage I wouldn't be surprised to see RR dial up the blitz's more.

Not "buts". San Francisco is a very good team, particularly their defense. No shame in this win...AT ALL.

I get frustrated with our very sloppy play and almost handing the game away.
But in the end, flubs, bad calls, penalties..........all that is part of the game.
We pulled this one out fair and square. The 49ers had the ball and failed miserably to move it.

We won. I'll take it.

BTW - that cross hook, neck collar swing at Drew was 100% the right call. The dude is a thug and swung at his neck. He really needed to be ejected and didn't need to do that at all. Just, again, whiners playin dirty.

Agreed, that was absolutely the right call ... the instant replay showed Drew's helmet/head almost being taken off. Had that been Suh, it would of been two-games/$50k and a trip to the Commissioner's Office ... SFran got off light, IMO,

We handed that team every single point they got. This should have been a blowout. The positive is that stupid mistakes can be corrected. There are also a ton of positives that came out of this game. IMO the O line did a near fantastic job protecting Drew and creating holes for most of the game against a VERY stout defense.
They are going to need to play like this for the rest of the season because Seattle and Carolina have very similar defenses. It was a good test and I was encouraged by it.
We are going to be going up against some pretty damn good defenses from here on out, even the Bucs are starting to hit pretty damn hard on that side of the ball.

The fact is that the 49ers are a very physical and dangerous team. They seem to have our number most times but not today.

I thought the boys slugged it out with 'em pretty well ... better than the two previous meetings anyway,

Defense dominated the 4th quarter. This is their win.

Did I see them flash a 4rthQtr offensive stat, Saints-114yds/Niners-2yds? I thought I may have not read it right, but if that was the case, it's certainly a testimony to the defense,

Impressive whatever it was. II am not finding the actual figures but I reckon for the full 4th quarter it may have been Saints 172 yds, 49ers 8 yds.
By any standard, incredible.
