Re: A win is a win, but...
 

Pierre deserves some huge props for his play today. He is an amazing football player. I was not impressed with Moore today. That dropped return was F'd up. He needs to practice that sh*t and lose the mo.

We almost beat ourselves today with all the TOs and penalties. Dayum.....but good win against a good team. I was surprised how well our offense played against that D.

I thought the officiating was equally biased.

Re: A win is a win, but...
 

I think they do more than that, while it has gotten them many wins because of it, I believe they teach techniques of tackling that is most prone to cause injury to.

Re: A win is a win, but...
 

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.

Harbaugh is one of those "find a way to get the deed done within the rules/always living in the grey area" kind of coaches ... just sayin'. Is there any other coach in the NFL that tries to influence the refs from the sidelines more? :neutral:

Re: A win is a win, but...
 

Anything can occur in a game. Excellent, Good, So-so, Bad, Goddamn awful. No matter how much skill and endeavour, the opposition is there o upset that. It is what it is.
The outcome is everything. A win is a Win. That means all is good.

Oh. And how was Hartley.

Re: A win is a win, but...
 

I hate this team more than Atlanta and that's saying a lot. Prima Frigging donna's and that coach has to top the list. Game shouldn't have been close like that. Hartley surprised me glad he kept it together. Some of those calls and stupidity almost did us in. I was so happy they sent the Whinner's back to that sucky town with a loss.

Re: A win is a win, but...
 

the niners make you pay for any miscue. you need perfect football to soundly beat them if you can.

saints got lucky but they also proved that they can over come screw ups on both sides of the ball and they also are in the class of a team that you need to play solid near perfect football to beat them.

this was in book a typical niners and saints game. smash mouth all the way.

Re: A win is a win, but...
 

So many more questions than answers after this game... But so glad we pulled it out.

- rob..... Phenomenal called game except for one play.... I think he called and all out blitz on the play where gore was ..........WIDE......... open but couldn't catch the ball if he catches that game over.... But otherwise well called game.

- what do we do about Greer. I'm certain his season is over....I'm so sorry for him but it looked horrible. I like white as the two, but beyond Lewis, and white we gotta get some outside help.

- o line...... You do realize that drew cant keep this gettin pummeled thing up right.

- miscues..... I have no doubt these are the first thing to get rectified..... Lance and sproles have both dropped punts this year..., any more drops back on punts and I'll think bush was back in the backfield......

Re: A win is a win, but...
 

Jenkins got burned biting on play action on the Davis TD otherwise D was excellent.
Need to run the ball more, Drew was nailed on a 3rd and 2, why are we looking for a big play when 2 yards is all you need?
Lance was thrown in at last minute due to Sproles being shaken up on the punt return. Can see when not practicing catching punts in the dome pregame can effect you with the lights. Big difference from practice field to inside the dome but he is a pro.
