If we're 3-3 at the bye-week, I'll be stoked! | Page 4

We've got a legit chance at finishing with a winning record for the first time in forever! I have to believe that this team is only going to get better. Sure week 1 looked pretty vanilla. Despite the loss in week 2, you have to admit that the O was a little more exciting(with our 3 top receivers out, Braylon, Crabtree and Vernon kept in to help block). You guys have to remember that this team has had essentially about a month and a half with the coaches and were getting ready to start week 3 of the season. This team will progress as the season goes on, the offense will get more exciting and HOPEFULLY Spencer comes back. Those 3 things(time, cohesion and Spencer) WILL happen! We are better then last years team. GO 9ERS!

What is wrong with Spencer? When is he expected back? Same with Goldson, what is his timetable?

extreme cases of vaginitis

no he wanted to play since game 1

the coaches just feel (since he didnt play in TC or preseason) they just want him to learn the system before going into the game

learn the system?

You mean the get beat deep multiple times per game? hardly ever blitz, still play 5-8 yards off teh receiver?

Doesn't seem very hard to learn.

Yeah, I think 3-3 is a bit optimistic. This team has historically been total s**t on the road. We just need a win this week against the Bengals. If we play well, then it should be no problem.

IF we are 3-3 at the bye and our play makers are healthy, then I will go out on a limb and say we will win the west and go to the playoffs.

Yeah, +1

We should get Braylon back after the bye week. If we can just stay about even, I see improvement all around the rest of the way and playoffs ahead.

Whenever you are proven wrong, and people call you out, will you respond this time?

He never has before, why would he start now?

Lots of hurdles ahead. Philly may not be as much of a challenge as Detroit, and neither will be a pushover.

Somethings got to improve in the run game. Gore's gotta step it up, or Hunter's got to get some playing time. Something.

When and if the run game gets better established, I would expect Harbaugh to play less conservatively. Hard to open up the offense when you're always behind the chains, playing up hill.

Yes, a 3-3 record at the break would be fantastic.

If we can get to 4-2 then i'm pretty sure we'll lock this division down

I think thats to early to have it "locked up".. I think if we are 6-2 at the half way mark we should cruise.. if not, then it shows we are still inconsistent and ARI might still be in the race..

We are consistent O-Line play away from being a legit playoff team... not just a "Yeah okay, you can win the NFC West LOL" playoff team.
