Just watched Channel 2 News ..

Agree. Forget about that stout defense the Steelers had back then, Ben had Bettis, Ward, Plax and also a very good o-line.

Mason has the line of vets but our skill positions of QB, RB and starting WR's are all in the league 3 years or less with a new o-line coach and second-year OC who most likely is also starting his own game plan 100% today as well without Ben overriding things. That is YOUTH and not much experience at all. AB and/or Bell from 3 years ago sure would be nice right about now.

We all have to set our ambitions and expectations. The niners are a good squad with a good foundation under them. I'm only hoping to see realistic growth. 1) He stays healthy 2) minimizes turnovers 3)throws at least one TD 4) Stays calm and steady despite the circumstances 5) Shows command 6) Makes a few big splash plays 7) Brings something new and exciting that we haven't seen before.

I want him to be different than Ben, not a clone. Hopefully with as much or more success.

 

WATT!!!!!!! That’s what I’m talking about. Bring in Fitzpatrick and get picks.

 

Gonna need more yards per attempt

 

Don’t like the 3rd down play

 

First lead of the season!

 

Yes Butler should have been relieved of his duties last season I will give you that. But there are players that are just not giving a 60 minute effort. Good thing they traded for Fitzpatrick he looks everything they gave up for him. This defense is just average. When push comes to shove they fold like a cheap suit. Coaching is a big part but so is scouting and getting players to fit the mold. I feel the mold is warped. This has to do with coaching and players as well. It's a total meltdown. Definitely a new approach is needed ala a differnet defensive coordinator. But i'm sorry the players have to take some heat.

 

you effen morons, at least 65% OF you were happy to see this tool get in the game, good luck with that, he stinks.
