Thank you.

I am a bit concerned about the defensive secondary. This is the third game in which there seems to be some miscommunication or missed assignments. Part of it today was Peyton Manning. While he didn't seem to have the same zip on the ball he had two years ago, he still knows where to look and when to get it there. The steam may be gone but the accuracy is still there. Rodgers will be a good test. Hopefully Aldon and Brooks can bring some heat that has been sorely missed this PS.


No pass rush might be the issue here. Last year many QBs found it hard to set their feet after a few hits. Aldon and Bowman out, vanilla D...not worried yet.

I know this is the preseason and we don't wanna show the top secret plays and stay vanilla blah blah blah. The fact is this offense is offensive to watch running over and over out bunch formations especially the closer we get to the end zone. Don't understand why this team so afraid air it even in a meaningless preseason game. They do they s**t against green bay and we gonna murdered, you can't always expect your defense to be superior. I don't know if they don't have faith in the qbs or just don't know how to use a passing game but watching this offense is brutal.

As long as Alex is the QB, this passing attack will be decent to okay with minimum mistakes.
As long as we are winning Im OK with that. I support Alex Smith but he will never be a passer like Brees or Brady...

Elite QBs dont just fall in our lap. They are hard to come by.
But its not like we have had a chance at an elite QB in the last 8 years....

haha nice one, but Alex sitting behind farve for 4 years an staying in one system could win a superbowl, an rodgers could have been the one with 2 blow shoulders and 2 fired coachs. We were a s**tty team, Either way aaron wouldn't have stayed upright or healthy, and we be making the same excuses for rodgers that we do alex.
I saw the thread title... thought "what noob posted this kind of thread" and then was not surprised when I saw who the OP was.

Im not really gonna get into that. Because it's been exhausted to death.

But just looking at the tendencies of each QB....Alex is just a lot more conservative and careful by nature.
He tends to look shorter for recievers than exploit match ups in one-on-one coverage unless its vernon.

I think Rodgers up to this point definitely has had more weapons than Alex...

Its probably gonna take at least mid-way through the season for Alex to get comfortable with his receivers and trust them. You see the results of trust with vernon.
But does he have the balls to attack?

So true why do people ignore these observations? Both guys are products of their environment.

You accidentally made some good observations though. lol I get ya though and maybe I was being a little facetious as well.

BTW at the guy who shopped that pic of Rodgers and Smith that is some nice photoshop work there..... true talk.

It wasn't just the offense. Did you see the defense out there?! Pathetic. Peyton Manning picked apart the defense. Gore looks like he's out of gas too.

LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

of course the line has nothing to do with him getting stuffed

Samething was said last year and it ended up being a field goal fest season for Akers. I guess we can expect more of the same this year.

Same thing was said last year and we ended up a bad call away from the superbowl.
That was last year, can't expect D & ST to save the day game in & game out offense needs to step up

Man, don't you ever have anything positive to say about the 49ers? You are always looking for negative things to say about the team. Are you just trolling to get people irritated? If so, you are probably somewhat successful. Personally, I prefer to ignore your anti-49er ravings.
