I did. Call me a homer, and I know I am, but we held them to 18! "If the niners hold a team down to 17, they should win." Isn't that what everyone says? There was no excuse to lose this, and now everyone is high on moral victories like it's 2005 again.

Yea but we lack QB had a 50% completion percentage not gonna get it done with Indy and we were still in the game proud of the team. We need a QB!

Alex Smith did his job when he got the chance. It's hard when half your passes are from 3rd and 8... after we ran 2 running plays.

Singletary was a nice story but its starting to look like a lot of smoke and mirrors. Bash me if you want but the NFL today is about teams that can throw the football.

I agree with you. Singletary and Raye (Raye especially) just aren't intelligent people. They may have been around the game alot, but they just don't understand the game today. They consistently misuse timeouts, take too long to get the play called, and run a conservative/predictable game plan... Singletary was perfect for the role of assistant HC, as a motivator. He just doesn't have the mental capacity to win in this league, and his image/philosophy for the team is grossly outdated... Raye was Singleraty's hiring as he fits the Singletary image. If Raye needs to go, then so does Singletary.

This is simply an ignorant post.
No stop freaking out Singletary is the right coach...the defense played hard today and most of that is because of Singletary. Peyton didnt even have one touchdown today..not one..who would have believed that a week ago

what bothers me with Sing is that he doesnt get more frusturated when the offense isnt working...you cant be clapping when we go 3 & out...you gotta step on Jimmy Raye to get that offense rolling...you have to play like you wanna score every possesion and Raye and Sing are just being WAY too conservative

Put Alex in shotgun...spread the ball around to Crab, Morgan, VD and throw the ball down field...throw it to Gore on screens more cuz hes got great hands and is great in open space

If the offense was more aggresive we would have won that game....lets move on and beat up Tennessee at home

Uh, Alex was getting it done today. He was last week too. QB play was not the problem today. It was the play calling plain and simple.

He had 4 bad throws that he really should have made - missing Bruce on the last drive was really bad - he has to get better this is his 2nd game back in the saddle against a good team - hopefully he continues to get better.

We have to Win this Chicago game and the TEN game for that matter - we do that we are in good shape.

Once we get the OL situated and get a rushing OLB we'll be in the playoffs. Alex looked good and should continue to get better. That bodes well for the future as we can concentrate on other things in the draft.

Of course we CAN win some games... but why settle for inferior coaching. Singletary (and his stupid conservative philosophy) belongs with a top 5 defense. It's much easier to change a coach than an entire team.

They passed the ball nearly three time more than they ran the ball!!!!

Dude a 50% completion rate is getting it done? Against Indy? You got no chance of winning and that is a fact. I blame this on the players I saw alot of drops, overthrows, turnovers, etc.

The future could have and should have been today. Are we turning into Browns fans or something?

We're a RT and a pass rushing OLB away from being contenders. Considering where we've been, I don't think that's too bad. Just a few tweeks here and there and we'll get there, but this season will be a season to see where we're at and then go full boar ahead after that.

I'm not saying we don't have those problems, but those were not the reasons why we lost today.

But, it is the reason why we lost. If we have the OL situated Alex has time and drives the team down for a winning touchdown. If the defense has an OLB that can put pressure on the ball Manning doesn't convert those 3rd downs and we get the ball ball. That's how I look at it. Still we're a good team that played an undefeated Manning led team at home tight. I'm personally, very excited about this team. As far as the playoffs, that time will come.

4 bad throws didn't determine the game. Bruce missed two easy ones as well. Alex also moved the chains and scored when was given the chance. It's plays like handing the ball off to moran on 2nd and 7 that killed us.

If Singletary fails to realize that his team is suited towards the complete opposite of what he wants to impose, then I agree.

How in any way is this ignorant?
Give us a break man.

Dude we lost by 4 points and had the lead 3/4 of the game. Singletary and Raye were just so gunho about pounding the ball when we had the lead that we let it slip away. Passing was working when we didn't have to. When they expected us too AFTER we fell behind, was when it all fell apart. This should have been a win today without a doubt.

Smith didn't lose us this game. Raye never put him in position to make plays. He waited until they got down to let him throw. That makes the offense predictable, since the opponent knows they must throw. Raye needs to be less predictable.

Dude we passes nearly 3 times more than we ran you excuse is not good. He completed 50% of his passes that is not getting it done especially against Indy!

Why are you blaming Singletary when Jimmy Raye is calling the Offensive Plays?

Singletary knows nothing about running an offense and what I blame him for is for selecting an Offensive coordinator who is basically a running coach. What they need is an Offensive coach who can work with Alex Smith and all the fine receivers that he now has.

With Bruce, Crabtree, Davis at his disposal, he should be able to utilize what Alex does best (which is the Shotgun spread offense) and work with it.
