vel Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 The playcalling of the 49ers right now is just plaing AWFUL. 6 plays, 5 runs. I understand trying to establish the run early but not against a team like the Saints, who is always going to put you in a shoot out. This is pitiful and will probably be an early night if things don't turn around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see they are moving the ball now that a few passes have shown up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlazerHarvard Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 The playcalling is fine. The 49ers are a running football team---make no mistake about it. Gore is their best player and they drafted two O-Lineman in the first round to further establish their identity as a hard-nosed, run-it-down-your-throat football team. It may not be the offensive philosophy YOU prefer given the passing culture of the league nowadays, but it is their identity. Also, the Saints do allow yards on the ground. They ranked 21st in rushing yards allowed last season. As I was typing this, Gore broke off a 20 yarder, by the way. LOL71 rushing yards in the first half. If it weren't for that fumble by Walker, the 49ers would've been going into the half with a 10-9 or 14-9 lead. Barring the bonehead mistakes (bad snap that led to a safety and a fumble near the end of the half), the 49ers have done exactly what its needed to do on both sides of the ball.

lookout Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 these are not your fathers 49ers....this is more of a smashmouth team, just like its coach!Who keep shooting themselves in the foot and turning the ball over. They have had a GREAT chance to beat them tonight and I want to break something watching them screw it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red falcon Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 You have to think about the wind as well, it's having a huge effect on the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But they'll probably throw an interception or something, or fumble on this kick off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
