Bottom line: every team in the NFL has lost games this year. Our first loss happened to come when we were without our 2 best play makers in the passing game, with 2 rusty O-lineman coming back from injury after 4 weeks and 7 weeks off, 2 rookies starting at linebacker, and a kicker signed from the street late last week.
The sky is not falling in San Francisco.
I don't think anyone who follows the team and is objective at all (lot of Niner fan love misery) thinks the sky is falling, but you can't play this sloppy in a big game against a good team and expect to win.
-2 fumbles by Jimmy, one for a defensive TD and the other setting up a short field for a TD. Both plays, he had the opportunity to secure the ball and take the sack. The first one was a killer as the 49ers led 10-0 and had a chance to add some points before the half. Turned the game around IMO
-Jimmy throwing way to many picks and near picks. He got bailed out by a D holding on the first one and then Wright and Wagner dropped easy picks. Funny that the one pick was not his fault on the Bourne drop, but he should have had multiple INTs and that can't happen in a big game.
-Receivers need to catch the friggin ball. 6 drops at least and none of them were tough catches. Big chunk plays too. Ball goes through Bourne's hands and instead of a 25 yard gain, it's a pick and Seattle ball inside the 20.
Also:
-Staley looked so slow last night. I expected him to be a little rusty after missing that much time, but he looked like he fell off a cliff. Hopefully, not the case but is definitely a concern.
-Looks like Blair has an ACL. Huge loss moving forward. Great depth and has really become a good, all around player. The tackle he got hurt on was a great play. You don't see many lineman take down Wilson one on one.
-Sucks that in the 10 or so plays that Richburg was out, Garland screws up and contributes to a sack, fumble, TD.
But hey, team needs to have a short memory and get on to the next game. As a fan, I am really looking forward to the games coming up. A lot of tough games, but way more fun to watch.
