Away from home and the NFL hates its fans, so couldn't catch the Seattle game. Looks like I didn't miss much.

I did at least get to watch the Niners lose which was fun. Big Bust Brock out there proving you blew that 262nd pick...

Well, in Whoville they say - that his tiny hands grew three sizes that day.

Purdy looked rattled today and it definitely didn't help that the Browns defensive line was in the backfield all game.

Go ahead and allow everyone to get their hits in, cuz they feel sooo vindicated.

And exactly Brock still manage to get to the winning field.

edit: mostly twitter they are having a field day. Interesting how alot of them are Eagle fans.

I wasn't expecting the usual supernatural efficiency what with the opponent and the weather and on the road and all that but I was expecting the team to still look like they know how to play football. It's been a minute since I've seen this team look so out of sorts and I have to say: I prefer the other way they'd been doing things.

Brock stunk today and fair is fair so I will accept a week of "Brock Turdy" with grace but I'm not really concerned, a young QB will sometimes be bad against a top defense in bad weather. My cope of choice is that I'm glad his first real bad game was mostly erratic throws when he's generally very accurate, instead of freaking out and making a million terrible decisions.

Mine is that the game might damage Watson’s stock. The loss was frustrating but if it helps push him out of the league I’ll take it. If this isn’t realistic don’t tell me la la la I can’t hear you

The guy who moderated the Inside the 49ers blog for the Santa Ross Press Democrat was fired yesterday because it came to light that he groomed a 17 year old student 18 years ago (he was 31 at the time) when he was a teacher. Sadly predictably a bunch of posters on there are calling this woke nonsense/virtue signalling. This was the blog where Grant Cohn got his start so sadly I'm not surprised by the quality of people that frequent it.

I was a bit nervous about that one, for the first quarter and change looked like they were playing it down. But they gutted it out, nice play from Kupp and Stafford and the defense really did it.

Niners I'm still a bit aggro about, the refs really did a lot in that game. Also friendship broken with Jeff Moody. I know that's not his name but Jeff fits him better if he's gonna be a shank artist like that. Really should have made that one

Kicker salary is an interesting math problem to me. Do you pay a veteran 4M a year, or a rookie 1.3M a year? How badly do you want to make those kicks, and will the experienced guy outperform the rookie most of the time? Really hard to say since any given kick, can go any given way. And are those few millions better spent on the rest of the squad? I don't know, it's just starkly revealed in clinch games when the kicker shanks it. Maybe the coaches should drive for a touchdown if they don't have complete confidence in the kicking team, I dunno.

McVay should not be pissing me off, but he is. How in the hell does he think not running the ball in the first half was a good idea?

Thank goodness he adjusted in the second half, because he's not prone to doing that too often.

Who knows. Maybe he adjusted simply because Stafford was not on today from what I saw.

I really appreciate how realistic Gannon is making the tank look, really selling the falling apart after putting together decent first halves. Certainly can’t be the case he’s a coach that can’t adjust at halftime and go beyond the scripted start. All an act, clearly.

Dallas was just too lovely to lose to, I guess.

I will never be mad at the Cardinals for beating the cowboys. Either Gannon is a bad coach (it's this) or he's a multidimensional chess master (impossible, he voluntarily took the Cardinals HC job)

I was busy so I only got to see the niners game which I recorded and that was not a fun game to watch. Especially hate injuries to key players.

It looked to me like maybe brock purdy had literally never handled a wet football. His accuracy was way down, and there was a lot of poor ball handling.

Also gently caress the refs. CJ totally fumbled that ball that was not a forward pass, they were ticky tacky with pass interference until they weren't, they were kinda trash in both directions until they literally decided the outcome of the game with bad calls on the last few plays. Just a real embarrassing showing for that squad.

the niners have $40m in unused cap space this year so while your analysis is interesting from a broader perspective, there's just no excuse for letting Gould go. Maybe you worry about saving less than $3m a year if you're hard up against the cap.

That 40 million freed up late. Before the boss signing and other restructurings, they were over the cap.

I believe they’re planning to carry that over to next year, so it does have team building implications not just owner money

Leperflesh
May 17, 2007

I think less than $3M is easy money to secure one of the best kickers in the league when your QB is gonna be cheap as poo poo for the next few years, but I'll concede that might have been a slightly harder decision this summer than it seems like today.

Like after the QB, the kicker is the next most important position on the team for scoring points and you gotta score points to win games. Adding $3M a year to win one more game a season is a discount. And here we have a perfect example where a better kicker probably wins us a game we instead lost.

They never even made Gould an offer. There was no attempt to restructure his contract. He's still a free agent!

Gould has no range. If Moody pans out, he is better than Gould.

Goulds main selling point is he never missed in the playoffs. That's a great thing. He's also old as gently caress.
