I was really impressed with the O-line play last night.

Let's hope they have a similar performance in them against a very stout 49ers D next week.

 

[Simpleton]

They moved him to off-ball every now and again to lighten up his load, hope they continue doing that situationally just to give him a bit of a breather.

 

[Texas Ace]

He was outstanding last night.

He didn't get a sack, but that was an all around great performance from him.

On top of all the pressure, he made stops in the run game and broke up 3 passes, 2 of which were very close to being picks.

That dude has a chance to be an all time great.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Micah was incredible.

The 49ers defense is a better version of the Bucs, so this week should definitely have prepared them. Both teams are really aggressive downhill, each team arguably has a top 2 LB group and each has really good safety play but exploitable CB's.

The biggest difference is that SF has an elite edge rusher in Bosa while Tampa has much more size on the interior with guys like Vea, Hicks and so forth.

SF got Kinlaw back now so they've added a bit of size but for the most part their interior guys are only about 290-300 lbs like ours, yet their run defense is the best in the league. If we can manage to scratch out somewhere around 3.5-4 YPC we'll be in good shape against them because you can pop a few plays on their secondary.

He was credited with a sack.

Oh awesome.

I thought they were gonna give that one to Dorance Armstrong.

 

[Simpleton]

I said after the Skins game that it could be a really good thing because these jokers only respond when they're getting shit on. It's immature but their motivation seems to come and go based on what's happening externally, so of course there's a very good chance that they lay an egg next week after likely being praised all week after this win.

On the flip side the playoff loss last year obviously really motivated this group and had them locked in last night, and now we're of course playing the team that beat us last year with a chance to return the favor. Will that win out in terms of keeping these guys locked in vs. the inevitable avalanche of praise and accolades they're about to get over the next few days?

Will be very interesting to see.

 

[Texas Ace]

How fucking satisfying was it to see Brady throwing tantrums like a little bitch?

He was over there bitching at his receivers when it was him throwing the ball way short because he was getting rid of the ball early because he didn't want to get hit.

God that was great seeing him like that.

Cry more, bitch!

Any word on Jayron Kearse?

 

[Cotton]

I told y'all the defense was gonna eat.

 

[Texas Ace]

Dude has been a total stud.

We need to keep him and Jayron together for as long as we can.

 

[Simpleton]

Any word on Jayron Kearse?

He was walking around the field by himself after the game and led the post-game huddle in the locker room so I'd imagine he's fine.

 

[shoop]

Even if we don’t go all the way this year you don’t replace him. The defense is finally good and I would like to see what Mike could do with his version of the offense. What he did with the backup QB and offensive line means something. If we don’t make it next week you draft another stud Oline and come back next year mauling everyone. The only reason we are in this boat is because Jerry screwed the WR room.

The fact that Peter’s went down mid game and we were able to plug and play other players in is another thing that has sunk us in the past.

 

[Cotton]

 

[dpf1123]

What about Peters? I don't think he ever came back in the game after exiting in the first half.

 

[Genghis Khan]

Any word on Jayron Kearse?

Supposedly he told one of the reporters he's fine.

 

[Cotton]

God, this one feels so good.

 

[Texas Ace]

God, this one feels so good.

Yes, it does.
