SAN FRANCISCO 49ERS VS. NEW ORLEANS SAINTS GAMEDAY THREAD (Week 10)

Amazing, isn't it ? Of all the points to discuss (great game, turnovers, OT, pass from Kap to save Niners season, etc), they spent the entire segment on flop-gate.

Skip is such a douchebag....meanwhile, he spent a good half hour celebrating the Cowboys monstrous victory over the lowly Jags. He's just awful.

1. Defense played lights out. Borland is playing unreal and it will be tough to see him on the bench when Willis/Bowman return.
2. Offense sputtered in 2nd half, but we all knew Saints would make a come back. Keap stats would be a lot better if it wasnt for MULTIPLE WR DROPS.

Palmer is out for season. Its just too bad AZ and SEA both won this week.

I wonder why Saints fans never get the credit as the 12th man does. That stadium is loud as f**k and coming into yesterday they had won 11 straight home games and 20 straight under Sean Payton. But yet all you here is the 12th man this and the 12th man that and how impossible it is to win in Seattle

San Francisco 49ers – Performances of Note

Colin Kaepernick, QB: +4.3

Breakdown: This was a fine game from Kaepernick based on his passing, with just a smattering of run plays and improvisation thrown in. Could have put up even better numbers but for some big drops by his receivers.

Signature Play: Q4, 1:39. In a play that came all too close to summing up this game, Kapernick delivers a strike on 3rd-and-10 only for Michael Crabtree to drop a tough catch along the sideline.

Chris Borland, LB: +5.9

Breakdown: The NFL had Borland down for 17 combined takles, and while the actual number is more like 15, that's still a heck of a total for a player who was always around the football in this game.

Signature Stat: Was thrown at nine times in this game and though that resulted in seven catches, those catches went for a total of 41 yards and were often defensive stops.

Anquan Boldin, WR: -0.4

Breakdown: It's not often a WR can drop four passes and still escape with a grade hovering around average. Boldin caught six passes for 95 yards and a score, but this was a game of what was left out there for a usually sure-handed receiver.

Signature: Boldin's four drops are twice as many as we have ever recorded from him before and only the fifth multiple-drop game from him since 2007.

Pretty incredible.

Just had a chance to watched the game. Defense played out of their mind in the first half. Got some early turnovers against Brees and generally giving a down team some spark on offense. Offense did its jobe capitalizing on them.

Second half offense wa just too much f**ked up execution to sustain any scoring drive. Missed assignment on blitz pick up on a convertible 3rd&4. Kaep having all day to throw the ball but ended take a sack on another drive. Dropped passes.

Great needed team win on the road with some game saving plays by the defense and offense. But the offense couldn't do s**t on the second half until a last gasp 4th down throw by Kaep to Crabtree.

WTF is this idiot trying to say?

Symbiote and NO to LV are names of people on their forum.

"You 2 specific people don't seem to understand basic physics"

LOL, I thought he was drunk and making up names for certain people on the board... I met a few people from New Orleans and they can be down right hilarious without trying to be funny

Sorry if it's been asked already. Is this game gonna be on nfl replay?

Probably. It was the best game of the weekend. Both teams played hard, and above all, pretty good officiating. No ticky tack calls so the game never died

I can't see how this won't be on NFL replay. The only other game this weekend even comparable in quality was Miami vs. Detroit, and that one only had about half as many huge momentum swings as this game did.

Judging the trajectory of how his body is gonna land his body position, there's a good chance landing on his left knee caused his body to spring forward. Thus making it look like it's touched down at the same time, but it reality the knee probably hit before crossed the goal line

You are under the assuption that he is going head first into the endzone and his knee is on the field of play.

In reality, his knee is in the endzone and he is heading back into the field of play. If what you say is true, then he would be even MORE inside the endzone than he already is.

Field of play is on the left of the line, Endzone is on the right (Notice the red lettering in the top right of the image)

I don't see it on the schedule for NFL Rewind. Am I missing something ?
