Will the Niners beat Seattle in week 3?

The game last year against the Seahawks is probably the best game of Gabbert's NFL career. It's his second highest passer rating in any game he's thrown for at least 200 yards (behind the game against the Lions last year). I wouldn't count on him replicating that this year let alone improving on it.

If we get an average game from Gabbert and force some turnovers, we may have a chance, because the Seahawks' offense stinks this year. I'd be shocked if we get a consistent running game going against them.

Kaepernick starts and it's an automatic loss. That's why Gabbert is starting. Otherwise Chip Kelly would be starting Kap but he sucks so there it is.

Gabbert is no top 15 QB either, but I'm going to watch the game and hope for a win. You?
Niners 17
Hawks 13

f**k the seachickens!!!

I hope the middle of the 9ers defensive line can cause big time pressure on Wilson right up the gut and the OLBs keep him from squirting out the sides (that might be easier if his ankle still bothers him much), then ILBs and safeties keep any quick dumpoffs Wilson might get off to short yardage with little to no RAC. I think the defense will be very solid against rushes. It wouldn't surprise me to see the defense produce at least a couple of turnovers. They will also probably get burned at least once on a long gainer-touchdown.

With the 9ers offense I think as long as the players execute reasonably well that it's going to come down to Kelly vs. Carroll . It could develop into a real chess match.

The 9ers offense isn't likely to put up a lot of points but the 9ers defense may be able to throttle the Hawks offense down to 14 points or less. It seems like it could be a low scoring game (neither team getting more than 20 points). The offense has got to put up probably at least 13 to 17 points to win and it will take every person on the offense doing what they are supposed to do get those points. And no turnovers.

That's not all too much to ask for is it?

Sneaking suspicion that the Hawks will "wake up" against the 9ers. They're tired of hearing all the questions and we traditionally $uck playing in Seattle the last several years.

35-17 Seahawks.

Pretty close.......

according to PFF, YES! Congrats fellas, things are looking up. Make room in the trophy case!
Out of curiousity, if there are us and them on this board...do we get uniforms? I want number 74 and I prefer a full face mask with a tinted visor. Where do I get my ankles wrapped? Multiple ankle injuries in the past make that a must!
