This is the biggest game we've had since 2006 when we were 5-5 and in the playoff hunt. We traveled to St. Louis and lost in a hard-fought game (thanks to gutless Nolan).
Anyway, if we win this game, I think we'll make the playoffs because we have a soft schedule. If not, I think 4-6 is too big a hole to climb out of. It won't totally cripple us, but with a home game against Arizona and a road game against Philadelphia still on the schedule, it's going to be extremely difficult.
This would be a huge upset and win if we could somehow pull it off.

Here's all I need from the 49ers in for the packers game:
1)Continued Improvement of his mechanics & football mental. In the 4 games this season...He shown his arm strength, improved pocket presence, better decisions with the ball & improvisation when the play breaks down. However...he hasn't show these in a consistency that will curb doubt of his abilities as OUR QB. Alex just needs to continue work & grow.
2)Solid O-Line play - It's starts with the QB but it doesn't end there. The O-line has got to buy the QB 3-5 sec consistency for him to make a decision. Plus open up holes for Frank Gore. They do these things...offense as a whole will move chains.
3)Our young/rookie WRs...Josh Morgan & Michael Crabtree. Get more work in with Alex Smith. As much as I hold (Josh Morgan) responsible for Alex Smith's turnovers (as much as Alex) in that Titans game. I take a step back & look at why that happened....we have to remember that Josh Morgan timing has been worked out with Shaun Hill....stemming from 2008. So get our timing worked out - continue working. As for Crabtree....he's a rookie so mistakes will happen. Plus he wasn't a training camp at all & his work with Alex has shown promise
I look at Jason Hill...He & Alex have their timing down & it showed in that Titans' game. If Alex gets that chemistry Morgan & Crabtree as well....It would be beautiful
4)Jimmy Raye & play-calling....He & Sing envisioned a Smash-mouth, Power running team with Frank Gore....Our talent however doesn't fit that. He has to develop gameplans that will FULLY utilizes our players skills. I understand that Jimmy now has Alex Smith at QB & not Shaun Hill & that Jimmy is now only working with Smith for 4 games. Learning what Alex brings to are team. However going conservative & calling the same plays won't score points. If your trying to "protect" Alex then DON'T you do a disservice to Alex & us.
5)Plain & simple...No Missed tackles/assignments. Chris Johnson burned us for 2TDs. Pressure their QB...Yes Jay Cutler got picked off like a million times on Thursday...but he also got 300+ yards.
FINAL, ABOVE ALL ELSE....NO MORE MENTAL MISTAKES....
I know I posted this somewhere else...but I typed so much....
^^Like This^^
It is a lot to ask for in one game but if all of this stuff happens I dont see how we can lose a game, pretty much addresses every problem we have on our team in its current form. Good to see someone else who actually knows football.

Now, to my question: when was the last time we won a game in Lambeau?

Does anyone remember the last time the niners beat the packers at lambeau, b/c honestly I have no idea.
November 4th 1990 (24-20), but not only that, we haven't beaten them in a regular season game PERIOD since 1990! -The only win we boast against their franchise since then is our 1998 'The Catch II' playoff win.
If there was ever a statement game for this franchise, next week would be 'it'.
Yup, Frozen Tundra, Mid-November, 49ers/Packers. I would LOVE to see us come home with a win against a Favre-less Packer team. ASmith had better have a chip for MMCarthy as well, who left him under the bus along with Nolan and Turner. I just wish someone in this organization had the vision to treat ASmith like the #1 overall pick in the draft that he was. ASmith may just get to poke both MMCarthy and ARodgers in the eye Sunday...

Yup, I'll take a 3-0 or a 30-27. We just need to get out of there with a win somehow.
