hondo in seattle Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 The niners right now are 31st in run defense. Let's not over think this: heavy sets with 6 OL, Felton lead blocking and Shady pounding the rock. I kept hearing we used the pistol yesterday too. Has anyone done a writeup? I miss the ones Quinn used to do. I think Roman had a tendency to overthink things. Lynn has shown the same propensity. Lynn seems to like the obvious: do what you're good at; attack where they're weak.

Lynn seems to like the obvious: do what you're good at; attack where they're weak. I think there's a contradiction in there But yeah, Lynn went "they are missing 3 DL starters and have a bad linebacker group? Let's let Felton and Shady smash it up the middle."

dulles Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 (edited) Mike Rodak Rex Ryan on 49ers next Sunday: "We don't know who their QB will be. It might be John Brodie." Makes reference to 49ers quarterback of 1960s. Rex has an incredible historical knowledge of the NFL. It really shows that despite the bumbling blowhard image some get from his shtick, he really is an intelligent fellow. [edited to remove picture, etc.] Edited October 10, 2016 by dulles

I kept hearing we used the pistol yesterday too. Has anyone done a writeup? I miss the ones Quinn used to do. I believe overthinking this is exactly what you're doing here. Their run defense is lousy, which i think means our normal great running attack should do very well. No need to go with your suggested lineup. Still need to keep our passing options open.
NorthBuffaloKid Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 Every time I read this statement I think it's kind of a loser mentality. You practice to be a winner, you play to be a winner but with the mentality that you still have to go out there and perform. You don't build a winner mentality by preferring the underdog tag.Both are true. A playoff team wins the ones they should - even the ugly ones like yesterday's. They are favored this week, as they should be. As they accumulate wins, they will be favored more often. They need to win this one like the last 3 - one play at a time.

[edited to remove picture, etc.] The real buffoons are the fans and media who consistently misinterpret Rex's personality as a sign he lacks intelligence.
dulles Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 I've heard buzz that Kaep is starting. Give him the Brisset treatment ? We've gotten pretty good at playing defense against one dimensional teams - Brisset, Keenum, etc. Did you hear Robey-Coleman's postgame interview? He said they knew they wouldn't throw deep. He said they were just waiting on all the quick outs. Rex was crowding the box, forcing them to go away from Gurley - the only true threat to the Bills. I think Buffalo should be in good shape against the '49ers.

[edited to remove picture, etc.] John Brodie was the QB for the 49ers in 1972 when the Bills beat a pre-merger NFL team for the first time. I was at that game, played in War Memorial Stadium.

The Frankish Reich Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 (edited) John Brodie was the QB for the 49ers in 1972 when the Bills beat a pre-merger NFL team for the first time. I was at that game, played in War Memorial Stadium. John Brodie was my favorite QB when I was a little kid. Those Niner teams deserved better: Gene Washington (great WR), Brodie, Ted Kwalick (TE), great old Charlie Kruger on the D line (the last D lineman not to wear at least a half face mask if I remember correctly). Glad to hear Rex remembers too. EDIT: 26 Corner Blitz, you beat me to it. Edited October 10, 2016 by The Frankish Reich
26CornerBlitz Posted October 10, 2016 Author Posted October 10, 2016 @AdamSchefter Chip Kelly told KNBR the 49ers staff will meet today to discuss whether Blaine Gabbert or Colin Kaepernick will start Sunday at Buffalo.
zow2 Posted October 10, 2016 Posted October 10, 2016 Don't love being heavy favorites here. The turnovers have been going in our favor this year and they gotta be diligent of that vs the 49ers. If SF leaves the game + in turnovers i bet they have a good chance to win. It's the NFL, anyone can beat anyone. One thing the Bills can control...play ferocious defense. Don't let SF get any momentum offensively.

Real QB's kneel with 2 minutes left in the 4th quarter.
26CornerBlitz Posted October 10, 2016 Author Posted October 10, 2016 Chip Kelly: 'I don't send messages through the media'Coach Chip Kelly has assured his players that if he makes a change at quarterback he'll share the decision with them first. 49ers 'hopeful' that DT DeForest Buckner will return this weekDeForest Buckner, a key part of the Niners' defense who missed Thursday's game, should benefit from the extra rest and be good to go, says Chip Kelly.
