Honest opinion on Seattle as a Niner fan this is Deja Vu

They are Ballers and it kills me! They draft all the players that are too small (Wilson), too tall for a CB (Sherman), too big and slow for a Safety (Chancellor), and too slow WR (Baldwin).

Niners are a mess!

Yup the niners are a mess with better players than the Seahawks. What do we have 4 more pro bowlers than any team the last 4 years. Injuries were the main reason the niners were a mess as well as an inept OC and HC that tried to change kap from a Wilson type qb to a pocket passer. If we get a halfway decent play caller we will be top 15 offense and we know when healthy or not healthy on d top 5. That's primed for another sb run

I don't believe in luck. Seattle has earned this but I am not going to buy into the whole "dynasty" talk because I don't really think they exist in today's NFL quite the same way anymore. What Seattle will continue to be is a very serious threat to win the Lombardi trophy each season just like the Patriots have been.

It doesn't mean they're guaranteed to win it every year, but they have a championship stability that many franchises lack or are on the verge of grasping as well.
The parity that exists in today's game makes things more fun in the sense that teams rise and fall and it gives all fans equal opporunity to have hope.
In my humble opinion I think the 49ers are 1 or 2 years of good decision making (and on-field play) away from being just as stable as Seattle. What I mean by that is we must hire the right coaches for the long term, create a system where coaches can learn and grow, come up with a solid scheme for offense, re-sign and sign the right players to fit our team for the next 5 years, draft smart not stylish, remain positive and be honest with ourselves.

Wilson will be in HOF. Kaepernick has sweet abs.

This game is undeniable proof that the 49ers is WAY BETTER than Seattle but is disappointed by bad coaching. This also proves that Wilson is overated and his D and Lynch bails him out time and time again. KAEP is better than Wilson by a mile but Kaep is misguided and is not being groomed properly to be elite.

If 49ers and Seattle plays 10 games. 49ers win 7 out of 10.

Hmmm. Considering the 49ers have lost 3 straight to them, youre saying the 49ers win the next 7 straight? cool story

Injuries much. Niners would of beat Seattle at Seattle this year like they were dominating them without all pro players but once gore and Hyde went down, who were owning that suspect run defense......too much to overcome. Also the ref gift td to that rest draft pick wr Richardson was pretty entertaining too.
Hell even the rams without a backup qb that threw 2 ints to give Seattle points may of win it had they had Bradford. Easy wins against backup players.

If Seattle is out lynch and Sherman and earl Thomas like we were out Manu pro bowlers and good players and the niners win, I WILL NOT say we are the better team, just fortunate we didn't have to play a good team that could of beaten us had they had their great players healthy.

Seattle does a good job of playing to their offensive players strengths whereas the Niners try to force their players to do whatever it is they suck at ie sending slow receivers deep and forcing Kap to stay in the pocket.

We've had every chance we needed to win 2 or 3 SBs but we always figure out a way to lose in the end. I've gone from hating Seattle to being very disappointed with our own team. We had all the chances in the world and punked each and every last one of them away.

The Seahawks are a better team than just luck, but at the same time, they'd be fulling themselves if they didn't admit A LOT of breaks have gone their way over the last 2 seasons.

Great coaching was the difference yesterday. Mike McCarthy did what Harbaugh and our coaching staff had done on countless occasions. They did enough to give them a chance to win, then they retracted into their shell and hoped to hang on. Jim Rome is an a$$ but just said it perfectly. MM is a good coach, but he's not a super bowl coach. SB coaches don't demolish a good team at the most hostile stadium in the NFL for one half and then go scared conservative. MM will eventually get blown out as coach.
How many of us knew that seattle would make adjustments at the half and eventually wake up? As much as I hate to admit it, Carroll is a friggin genius.

Seahawks are good, no doubt. But they get the most lucky breaks of any team I have ever watched. I have NFL sunday ticket and I watched a lot of their games this year and in each game they seem to get lucky breaks and lucky bounces that just make me shake my head like "damn that would never happen for the Niners." I know I am biased somewhat and I'm sure the Niners get lucky breaks too, but it sure seems like the Niners get screwed far more often than they get lucky.

Think about just how much stuff had to line up perfectly and go right for seattle yesterday. Trailing by 12 with under 5 minutes to play after just throwing an INT:

1. Had to get the ball back quickly which they did
2. Had to score fairly quickly, which they did
3. Had to get an onside kick, which usually isn't successful. But hey luck was on their side since the moron on the "hands" team decided to try to catch the ball with his face
4. Had to score again, quickly, which they did
5. Had to get a 2 pt conversion which isn't usually too successful but yet again luck came through on what looked like a desperate throw that had no chance of being completed and the safety had all day to get in position to make a play.

So all these things just happened to bounce in favor of seattle as usual. Then they win the coin toss of course and from there the packers may as well have just went home. Makes me sick watching a hated team get every lucky break imaginable

wont be able to hold up the lombardi


so we have that going for us, which is nice

Pats need to bludgeon that arm on Sherman , can't believe packers & Rodgers did not attack Sherman after that injury

I was wondering the same thing...in the beginning of the game before he got hurt they decided they wanted to throw his way and he made them pay for it. Then after he was CLEARLY favoring his gimpy arm essentially playin with 1 arm they decide hey lets not bother throwing near him anymore. Wtf man they could have done something to force Sherman to try and make a play and see just how injured he really was. I think they let him off the hook.

Jordy Nelson shoulda said hey guys Sherman is playin with 1 arm lets attack him. Notice how Sherman looked like he was crying on the sideline during the game like a little bi*ch and after the game he had no arrogant comments to make bcuz he knows he got lucky they didn't exploit him

I can't stand the hoodie but any football fan knows that belicheat will use any advantage he can get. If he has an advantage he will exploit it over and over again until the other side adjusts. If sherman isn't healthy brady and co. will abuse the hell out of him.

These were the only two situations that you can deem "lucky", imo. With the 2 pt conversion, the Hawks made a play and executed, and who's to say, if they didn't convert, that the same sequence of events would have unfolded leading to the GB game tying FG. If anything, Seattle's defense would have played MUCH MUCH differently knowing a fg could lose the game for them.
