Whiners vs Saints looms larger...

NFL will NOT flex 49ers vs. Saints game to primetime

Niners vs Ravens on Sunday should be "can't miss" tv.

Lamar, Ingram & company are impressive right now.

If the Ravens can beat the 49ers and then we beat the 49ers, we'll be in the driver seat for the 1 seed. We'll have a de facto 2 game lead over the 49ers. I know it's still very early, but I like where we are right now. GB doesn't really impress me, I expect them to lose more games.

Very real possibility.. but we just need to take care of business this week.

Post of the day. Post of the week. Probably the post of the season. We've seen the product of HFA in '09. It would be great if we could win the rest of the games but we aren't the same team and we have injuries on both sides of the ball and our return man is out. We've got to turn up the intensity and Payton has to be very creative with only one receiver and 3/5 of an O-line.
