I thought we made this clear last year? Well we are going to have to state our case again. Teams league wide obssesed with us even outside the division and conference. Crying shame. Let's go!
Patrick Willis? That you?
No bro I'm just hyped and ready to go. You obviously are as well but you're just trying to be a polite visitor. We are just trying to be devoid of hospitality. Make y'all feel unwelcome. Now football aside come in but Niners vs ... step off!
Fair enough. Don't expect the same SOFT Packers defense. Expect the same soft offense if we cant get Lacy going though.

back then, farve was having all its fun when he played against the niners for several years. now its CK turn to have fun when he plays against the greenbay packers for the next several years its PAYBACK TIME!!!
Clay better enjoy this year. hgh testing could very well make him a mediocre player. he was a known juicer in college. lets hope his roid rage doesn't get the best of him and hurt kap with an illegal hit.

A bunch of Cheatin Peteys boys were juicing it up Cushing and Mays are prime examples

Packers fan here, I come in peace.
I honestly think some of you are vastly underestimating the Packers here, which is understandable, you guys have a good team and you guys beat us twice last year. Just want to point out some things that may change the outcome this year.
1. Yes we studied the read option, but I think a lot of people are mistaken and thinking we went to study it for defensive only purposes. I believe it is because they plan on running a form of it with Cobb as well.
2. Last year's playoff game, our defense was spent. We had a super thin rotation of backup quality DL/LB playing the majority of the game. Even more pronounced when Pickett went out multiple times in the playoff game. Time of possession at half was 22/8
3. We had Walden at LB who played probably the worst game I have ever seen a LB play. He is not with us anymore.
4. Tramon Williams was eaten alive by Crabtree. I can't stress this enough because I don't think you have a receiver on your team that will do that again. If you watch the playoff game again, watch how many targets Crabtree gets and how many he was successful on. He was the majority of CK's targets.
5. We had 2 HUGE TO's that cost a huge swing from 14-7 us to 21-14 you. Ill call one since we had the CK INT as well. Even with the piss poor half we had, we were still only losing by 3 at half. 24-21. With us having the ball for 8 minutes. I won't get into the second half because I believe our defense basically gave up and even then we were still in the game at the end of the 3rd Q.
6. You guys had 1 sack against Rodgers in the playoff game and that was when our starting RG went out, a new C came in and our starting C shifted to RG. Not to take away your guys DL, its very good, but by no means did you dominate us there with a line which is worse than what we are putting out there this year. I hope our rook at LT can keep up and by all accounts so far, he can. Buluga wasnt there last year when we played in the playoffs, so I think thats a moot point. And the rook beat out the guy who held his own against Smith, so I am not worried in that regard.
7. You guys say we can't rush against you guys, I disagree. We actually had decent success in the playoff game but the score and the momentum dictated that we pass more. And that was with a scrub UDFA who averaged 4.8 against your line.
I could go on a bit more but ill go onto this upcoming game. Our DL and LB are much improved from last year. We have a deep deep core of GOOD players, some of which might actually surprise you. We have Nick Perry back opposite Clay which will be a huge boon, if he even is a little better than Walden was at sealing the edge (which I cant imagine he could be worse), CK doesnt get the huge runs. Goldson gone also might play big into this game as he had a great playoff game last year and stopped several drives along with kept the middle of the field pretty empty. I think the biggest reason the 49ers lose this game is no Crabtree to be honest. Vernon Davis was held pretty much in check the last game and we are tossing out much more athletic LB this time, along with a much deeper secondary.
I think on offense a lot will be decided by how Lacy runs. Not in terms of huge runs, but if we can control the clock better this game. Your defense struggles much more against the big backs, ala Jackson, Lynch then they do against smaller guys like Harris. TOP was a huge disadvantage last game and that played right into your hands. MM also was an idiot in the 2nd Q last year by running NH when it was obvious our defense needed a break. I think this game will be a fun one to watch and it could honestly go either way. I just expect the Packers to be much much improved on defense this year, have a much better running game and be more balanced. Ill go 35-24 Packers.
Look here Packersfan, did you see how Justin Smith blew up the oline of Minn in preseason and single-handily picked up Toby Gerhert and slammed him to the ground for about a five yrd loss? That's what we're going to do to you if you ever come in this forum again!
No, Im just kidding! But seriously, check it out. Its a great highlight to show how locked in and loaded our D is. And you guys get all the offseason gameplanning from Harbaugh! You Packers should feel special.
I put Aaron Rodgers at #1 in my list of best qbs in the game. Hes going to do his part. But your team doesn't have the depth in the trenches to keep up for 60 minutes. And coming to SF too. I think also we have too many skill players for you guys to keep up with on our O. Especially when Kaep is going to elevate receivers to become weapons in our passing game. That is going to happen. Our receivers are going to get the ball.
its PAYBACK TIME!!!
