[Andy Hicks]

This thread will be pinned once we're under way.

If you see something happening, please describe the play instead of eg "WOW".

Please describe more of what you see, things that will help other fantasy owners eg Player X is seeing loads of targets, Player Y is running the ball with authority today etc

Remember, not all of us are watching your game.

Niners actually match up well with the Bengals. Historically, the Bengals are the Niners dog, but that means nothing today.

Matchup that looks good on paper + Alex Smith = 40-13 Bengal Win

 

[5Rings]

Dalton's arm strength looks better than advertised.

eta--this kid is shredding the D right now. making all hte right reads. really impressive. 3 steps and the ball is out of his hand on the throws to caldwell (3), lee, and aj green.

surprised Cinci didn't try and take advantage of the AJ Green/Tarell Brown mismatch on 3rd down. Brown has been terrible this year. giving Finley a carry on 2nd and goal from the 2 was stupid after Benson just picked up 4.

ray mcdonald continues to be our best passrusher from DT in the 4-3 alignment, just a disrupter.

I thought benson was suspended!?? Started Scott in my league...

 

[5Rings]

nope, Benson is playing. 5 carries already.

someday in a far off Galaxy, that sob Alex Smith will learn to throw the ball away instead of taking a sack. killed us last week vs Dallas. damn.

 

[finito]

Caldwell getting a lot of targets early.

 

[5Rings]

morgan should eat clements for lunch today. nice to see VD involved early.

tivo on, heading to the beach. enjoy the game

 

[footballnerd]

Alice still looking good as usual out there

 

[sirfumblesalot]

How does Green look?

The suspension starts next week

 

[Ministry of Pain]

The good news is it's already the 3rd quarter

You might think about an FBG subscription.

 

[two_dollars]

49ers offense is brutal

Michael Crabtree-OOF

lolStupid blackout. Well maybe I should be thankful based on what I have caught on streams and RZC.

 

[Raidersfan18]

Gore is worthless. Ugh.

 

[Andy Hicks]

Michael Crabtree-OOF

What Happened?

 

[bbuster]

1st and goal at the 6...let's have the great A. Smith throw it every down.

Yep, and not to Gore in the flat either.. that would be too smart..

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Michael Crabtree-OOF

What Happened?

Sorry Andy, he missed one right in the break basket.

Looked like he might have gotten hosed on that illegal touching though.

 

[Dr. Awesome]

BS call on Crabtree. He had a touchdown but the refs said he went out of bounds. Upon replay it looks like he was close but stayed in bounds.

 

[RhymesMcJuice]

Where's Gore?

 

[Dr. Awesome]

Where's Gore?

On the sidelines. Doesn't appear he's hurt - or if he is it's nothing major and they haven't talked about it. Seems like it may be a punishment for the fumble. If it's not that then

 

[RhymesMcJuice]

Is A.J. Green being covered that well? He's MIA.

 

[Dr. Awesome]

SF is doing a solid job of getting into the backfield quickly. The Bengals have been consistently beating the rush with quick passes but Green hasn't been open immediately. Just hasn't really had time to let him get open as they're going for short gains over the middle.

 

[two_dollars]

all Hunter since Gore's fumble?

 

[5Rings]

all Hunter since Gore's fumble?

Yup. I'm a huge Gore fan, but Hunter looks much better today.As for AJ--I'm shocked Cinci did not try and go uptop with him more w/Brown on him. It was a huge mismatch in their favor. Two ugly teams, but for D fans, there was some wood brought.
