Aldon Smith is ready, ARE YOU? Please post all the game day happenings here. ALL reactions and observations from the game go here. However, if you have something like an end of quarter analysis thread you would like to post go ahead and make it it's own thread. Please make sure someone didn't beat you to it before you post it. All threads that are posted out of the game day thread will be deleted and the user may be warned. In the cases where it is appropriate to merge threads (like if an injury happens and everyone reports it at the same time) we will do so. If you want a more interactive experience please check the live chat:http://49erswebzone.com/chat.shtml INFO: Where: New England When : Sunday, December 16, 2012 Time: 5:20 PM

We will be favored by 3pts with G-Ro play calling-- Harbaugh endorsed. Explosive.

NE favored by 3 (essentially covering home field advantage). At a neutral field it would be a push.

I can see Ginn having some decent punt returns, maybe even taking one to the house. Our running game will be a lot for NE to handle, LMJ might even break one for a TD. Kaepernick will have more time in the pocket and will have a good game.

their passing D blows, their running D is pretty good. We better attack that weakness.

Tom Brady releases the ball against 5+ pass rushers an avg of 2.63 seconds after the snap, the fastest of any starting QB in the NFL

Our boys are going to come to play against the Patriots. You all can say what you want, but I can sense that Colin is starting to get it. It may not be showing up on the stat sheet, but this guy is only going to get better. Just watch. It amazes me how little faith a lot of you have in our team. We are an elite team and can beat anyone in the league. None of you know how this game is going to go. Just root for our boys and watch them go out there and ball. As a collective unit, we are far better then the Patriots. Go Niners!!!

It also means his guys are getting open that much quicker for him also. Someone please post this to Brown and Rogers twitter

Please ask Hitner and Da Hawk to blow them up when they try to catch it.

Last Thanksgiving?

way to put a damper on things

Crap I just realized that lol!! -I wanted to forget about that game so much it's almost been removed from my mind ala "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" style.

Blitz Brady up the middle. Take away Welker's drag route. Remain stout against the run (Ridley's a stud). Meanwhile, win the TOP battle by grinding out our first downs with our own running game. I see field position being key in this one, with Akers being called upon for a couple clutch kicks.

What should we look for in tonight's game? I think the Texans are a pretty similar to us, so it should be good scouting.
