we don't try to win either. Singletary learned from Nolan, you don't play to win the game, you play to not lose it! Hence the damn Punt on the 30 something yard line.

thats not what singletary has planned. if we create turnovers, then it puts our team in a position to score and the more turnovers we have, the more we can score. we need to keep the score close, so turnovers are not a solution, they are the problem. this thinking is what makes singletary a genious.

I have run out of words to describe my hatred toward these factual sentences. My disgust with this team, the way it runs and the way it performs has left me relatively dumbfounded.

WTF is the problem with our defense? It seems like every single year our defense simply can not create turn overs while any team we play just gets luck and the ball magically ends up in their hands like a gift on Christmas. Honestly when was the last time our defense had a turnover? I think it has been a few games. Seriously, how hard is it to create a damn turnover! Give me an INT or create a damn fumble for once!
No pressure + Niner secondary = Zero turnovers.
The only guy to even get his hand on the ball (Mays) is now sitting on the bench. The only OLB to actually get pressure (Lawson) is pulled on all passing downs.

While I was waiting in a doctors office for an appointment I was thinking about the lack of defense we have and the reason came to me. Look at how conservative Singletary has the offense. Play tight and don't turn the ball over. Do not take chances no matter what because it is to risky!
I think Singletary has the defense playing the same coward football that he wants the offense to play under. Don't take chances because you might give up the big play. Just give them the underneath crap and pray we learned to tackle.
Does Singletary really think that playing football scared is a way to win? Well there you have it folks, that is the reason that I came up with for the lack of attack from our defense and the lack of turn overs. You can't create turn overs if you never take a chance. The ball isn't going to just fall in your lap, you have to go after it. Take a chance damn it! Get the ball back into the hands of the offense so they can put points up on the board.
