do we still deserved to be picked?? lol

ESPN still favoring us BIG over DAA Raiiiderrrsss..

I would think after 0-5, and dissapointing week in week out they would just start to pick against us.. I guess its NOT just the team and the fans that expect us to turn it around and they KNOW we are better than how we are playing..

Interesting.. your thoughts

Pretty simple, I think. We stank against the two teams we were supposed to beat, but hung tight against the three teams that were supposed to beat us. On paper, we should beat the Raiders. We simply have more talent and each game should make us more desperate.

is that a trick or do they really think the raiders are going to go back to sucking after a win?

The Raiders kind of sucked in both of their wins. We're a MUCH better team. They are going to have to luck into multiple fluke-like turnovers like they did against San Diego on Sunday to beat the 49ers.

Ewwwwww

You march yourself into the bathroom right this minute and wash your mouth out with a bar of Lava soap right this second young man.

I would have you wash your brain out for putting the jinx on us, but mouth is gonna have to do.

We are -10 over the last 5 games.Do not tempt the Football gods if you know what's good for our team.

~Ceadder

they win by other team's mistakes

we make a lot of mistakes

please football gods, just let us stop the bleeding, please

If we do win the west with 7 wins, and after season the league creates a rule that if you win your division with a losing record, you don't make the playoffs, instead another team with a better record takes another wild card spot. It would be forever called the "Niner Rule" unofficially.

so, you like to jinx us, eh?

just for that, that's what's gonna happen.

now we're all screwed
Well, the Raiders.

Then again, the 49ers as of now...


So all I can say about this game is that anything is possible. It'll either come down to the last second, or it'll be a blowout. Nothing in between.

If you were an objective, non-emotional analyzer, you can see that we are not that bad. Our opponents combined record is 15 wins and 8 losses. So we were playing better than average opponents. Our passing yards are 11th in the league, and our total offensive yards are 19th. Our defense is worse, being 20th on defensive yards allowed, and 24th on defensive passing yards. We really suck on turnover ratio - dead last, and that, my friends, is the main reason for our plight. Fumbles and INTs on Offense, and lack thereof on defense.

Exactly. Those turnovers contributed to AT LEAST two of our loses, three if you count the Seahawks game as well. Last year our defense excelled in the turnover ratio, what happened this year?

turn overs can hold a strong case for all of our loses
Don't mean to state the obvious, but take away the turnovers and we're probably 3-2. Three of our losses are by 8 points total. We're that close. I think we'll beat the Raiders easily IF we take care of the ball.
It's been a while since I have read a thread that didn't bash Alex and was generally positive...so maybe the team will finally get their act together. And except for the fact that the Raiders are not in our division, it couldn't happen against a better opponent!

GO NINERS!
if a team is deprived of talent it's easier to call it. when they're just shooting their feet like us it's harder to gauge when they'll finally turn and play up to expectations. kinda like "any day now..."
