⛏ SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS vs DETROIT LIONS 🦁 GAMEDAY THREAD - 2018 Season Week 2

Foster is back!
Its funny how the same fans who say "We are what our record says we are" when criticizing the team are the same fans who say "We should really be 0-2".

Last year it was "doesn't matter we're losing all these games by 3 or less points. We're finding ways to LOSE."

Now it's "we're not winning by enough. We almost lost!"

Which one do you want?

A lot of those sacks were coverage sacks. You can't just hold the football forever, no OL is going to hold up indefinitely. Those go on the QB. If nobody is open you've just got to get rid of it, or pull it down and run.

Agree with PHX...but the first three were on Najee, who let his man walk right around him. After 3 of those, Person came in and any sacks after that were on Jimmy....he looks like he lost his g spot. I think he has put too much pressure on himself and can't get back to the old jimmy we saw last yr. I think the money convinced him he IS the franchise and can't make mistakes....was overthinking and not the same gunner we saw last 5 game of 2017.
This isn't a win, this is more of a wake up call for the 49ers. Go over what they did wrong and fill in the hole. Chiefs isn't gonna be an easy win .

6 Sacks Plus 8 Hits...that's on the Oline.

I think its more because last year he was winging it and this year they have him playing within the structure of the offense and he's still figuring things out. Matt Ryan in 2015 was a good example of that.

So we get a win, AND the team is motivated to get better?

Sounds like a double win tbh

Thats assuming expectations for the 2 seasons are identical. Id say they're higher given the hype

Didn't get to see most of the game. I had my own football games to coach. I caught the game a few games before Jimmy G's would-be pick 6. I hear Matt Breida had a nice game. I'm wondering how the WR's played.

0 separation
Brenda was great
Jimmy is taking sacks
Spoon was BAD
Tatt was BAD and got hurt
Mental errors again

Absolutley. TArtt, Spoon, even Adrian stunk up the joint. Someone please teach them at this late hour how to cover a receiver. They just looked like Spoon who gave up 2 TDs last week. This week one TD and uncountable first downs. Cripes.n
There is work to be done but we won by a slim margin rather that lost by one. Super sweet imo.

Arrow is still pointing up.

I wonder if Garap is overcompensating for last weeks picks by holding the ball that long though.

If the QB runs right into a sack, is that on the OL? If the QB doesn't throw it and just stands there until a pass rusher finally works their way to him, is that on the OL? At least 3 of those and likely 4 were coverage sacks. Garoppolo has to get better about getting rid of the football if there is nothing there.

6 Sacks Plus 8 Hits...
A sack counts as a hit so I'm not sure why you are adding the two together.

WE need the old jimmy. JimmyG spot. Where did he go? How do we get him back? Beca use this jimmy is aftraid of throwing an INT, is afraid if he doesn't make the play we lose. HE has suddenly taken on a mantle of responsibility that he didn't have last yr. Somehow he has to get back to that. And taking his money away....Nah, that wouldn't do it. How we do this...is anybody's guess. Buti it has to happen soon. No question the recever drops bother him. but he has to keep going and hope guys start catching balls. I think it wigs him out when a WR drops a pass.

  • responsible for 14 points, IMO
  • responsible for 7 points

I was thinking similar thoughts about Jimmy. His holding the ball beyond 2 seconds,
will only result in more of the same, of which we saw today … more SACKS

It's a win. At 2 games into the season, every team
is a work in progress.

That ship has sailed. He may never play another down for anyone though.
