Lions at 49ers (1 Viewer)

[drummer]

Do Niners fans give Singletary any credit for putting the defense together or no? I'm curious. Harbaugh was a QB, how is the defense the backbone of the team?

Nolan brought in the 3-4. It starts there.

 

[MSULions]

i hope you all started your 9er receivers. Smith is about to have a career night.

Spoken like a true Sparty.

you saw the part about both starting DBs and our only good S being out right? I'm as die hard a Lions fan as they come - I watched every minute of all 16 losses in 2008 - but just being realistic about tonight. Harbaugh is a ##### and he'll pour it on if he gets a chance to. the Front 7 is going to have to win this game for Detroit - but i don't think they can without help from the secondary.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Nice stop on 3rd and 1 against the jumbo package

 

[MSULions]

what the hell was that?

 

[drummer]

I knew that pick was gonna happen.

 

[lod01]

what was that?

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

:X

 

[Freedonia]

Wow. Dominating D. They are always at the ball. It's amazing.

I agree. Not only do they seemingly never miss a tackle but they dont even let the people they tackle fall forward.

 

[mr roboto]

Butterfingers.

 

[jurb26]

what was that?

 

[BobbyLayne]

That was a Sanchez like throw

HFS

 

[jurb26]

Butterfingers.

Yeah, looked like it slipped out while he threw it.

Anyone know how they seem to have everything/everyone covered? Is it scheme, superior athleticism...

 

[THE SNOWMAN]

oofduh

 

[R Dizzle]

This SF D intimidates me.

Athleticism of their front 7. Particularly, A. Smith, Willis and Bowman though not limited to them.

 

[renesauz]

That's a terrific play by Smith

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

Very nice play by smith there

 

[drummer]

Whew! Averted disaster there.

As I understand it, they're the only team that practices 18 yard overthrows - that's how they finish every practice.Friggin' boy scouts - always prepared.

 

[jurb26]

A. Smith just saved those points. The guy is vrey underrated.

My original post was before that homer.

[MSULions]

nice flop

 

[drummer]

Wow DET made a bad penalty there.

 

[Prince Myshkin]

Very nice play by smith there

did that throw get past the line of scrimmage? looked a couple yards short to me. is that challengeable???

 

[MSULions]

not PI and no play since the clock hit zeros.

love me some replacement refs!

 

[Hipple Long Ware & Peete]

These refs watching the clock?????

 

[jurb26]

These refs are as bad with clock management as the ones in my flag football league. Simple atrocious.

 

[Biabreakable]

Cliff Avril almost blocked off the field from combined block from Vernon Davis and their FB.

 

[renesauz]

nice flop

penalty all day

 

[jonessed]

Yeah, this set of referees is really bad

 

[BobbyLayne]

that's twice the clock ran out and the replacements missed it? once on the play clock (1st TD) and there on the P.I.

Aw well, everybody is getting screwed - Flacco is right, ruining the integrity of the league

Can the Lions challenge whether the Niners got the play off?

 

[Biabreakable]

Pretty sure time had expired there. Pass interference on Moss leads to 1st and one from the goal.

This is too easy. Practice free throws.

It wasn't even close. It well past the clock.

going back and looking at it, it wasn't even close. the rule is that the qb must get the ball past the line of scrimmage right???

Yes. It was pretty clear they blew that one too.

 

[MSULions]

i remain intrigued by Joique Bell.

No way they call that. He threw it 20+ yards downfield across his body and OOB. Regular refs woulda never called it either

 

[THE SNOWMAN]

Why even bother running the ball against this SF defense...

 

[Prince Myshkin]

man there is just nowhere to run against sf

 

[BobbyLayne]

i remain intrigued by Joique Bell.

26? What happened after WSU?

 

[MSULions]

dammit stafford...hit him in stride and Megatron may still be running.

 

[R Dizzle]

I don't see how there is any way the Lions win this game.

Possibly, but if you watch the play it's pretty clear it went out before the line of scrimmage.

 

[PACKER 7]

looks like Smith is just the 3rd down back tonight. Bell seems to be carrying a load to the line. Interesting.

 

[renesauz]

I'm still trying to figure out what people continually see in Stafford. He's OK I guess, but certainly nothing special.

i've seen that called many times...i think that was a case of the replacement refs getting caught watching like a fan and a pretty easy call to make.

 

[FreeBaGeL]

I don't see how there is any way the Lions win this game.

Stafford could start throwing the ball within 5 yards of his WRs, for one.
