The big thing here is you just cannot draw parallels on year one for QBs and decide what a guy is going to be. Just look at the history. But somehow the "experts" do just that year after year after year.

It's why I can give a F what any of them think.

Gurley doesn't endorse this nickname.

No? Its too soon anyway. But i'm willing to bet its better than anything anyone else comes up with.

Much appreciated man. Thanks!

The Defense will come around.

Austin Blythe will fill in for a week or two and do a decent job.

I would trade NONE of our current elephants for any elephant of recent years.

Another team's verbal commitment not to use a tag is irrelevant.

Well there's no way in heck that it's just a "verbal commitment".
I wouldn't be surprised if the franchise clause on a rookie contract didn't take up 5 pages of legalese.
Double spaced and initialed line by line.
I also don't think it has a whole lot to do with whether Watkins "wants" to be franchised.
That would be the team's decision as they worked out in the new players agreement contract.

Anywho...it's an interesting subject and may be that we'll get a definitive poster that knows for sure.

Because after that game last week I sure as hell would like to have him around for a couple years.

As you and others point out, though, that damage can come from things other than football...maybe not drug use, but street fights or other sports activity (boxing, MMA, heck soccer). This guy clearly ran with a rough crowd, one has to wonder how many fights he got in how many times he had his bell rung?

What about College, Highschool, middle school these guys have been playing the sport most of their lives definitely more than 3 seasons

Best??
Hmmm
I'll sign up for "top 5" and best RB in LA

Kudos' to Austin Blythe for stepping in at C and doing a very good job. Goffense never missed a beat. Rams OL play is a huge reason Rams are better. Goff is having time in a clean pocket and Gurley is not competing with a defensive player for the handoff.

His balls are fine. Now don't get teste with me.

No offense taken. We're on the same side, brother!

You're right though, it's a different time. Sometimes it's better to work smarter instead of harder

Yes...same side for sure. Thanks for dropping the note!

To be fair, fuck the bleacher report

I don't hate Tavon.. the dude has some serious wheels.

But yeah.. I have accepted that he just isn't that great a player.. definitely not a top 10 pick.

But it happens. He still has some value.

Click to expand...

I used to think that if he were drafted by an offensive head coach he'd be a superstar. But now I just think he needs to be in a read-option type scheme where they aren't so focused on precision routes and depth. An offense where they're willing to run a bunch of bubble screens (which is his ideal usage IMO), jet sweeps and reverses like maybe Chip Kelly's offense would be ideal for him idk.

Either way I just hope we get something for him. The dude can't be happy being buried on our depth chart. And while there's some value to a guy like that in limited snaps, when it's looked at on the business side it just doesn't wash. So IMO just eat some of his salary and move him to the AFC, somewhere like Buffalo where he'd get more looks per game. Dude is just not gonna get that here.

Niners might well win this game. But even if they do they still suck.

I just stole this and will properly torment Niner fans with it......

It'll be fine when the D clicks .. we will be up 48 -0 .. spend the second half punting on first down

Higbee's drop near the goal line could have been one of the plays that ultimately left points on the board and resulted in a loss. Luckily for him, the Rams came out of the game dodging disaster.

49er defender knocked the ball out of Higbee's hand.McVay likes Higbee, nuff said.

Great video 24/7! As many of the guys said, the girlfriend seems very sweet. What the heck is she doing with you?! Jk

I remember seeing you live on tv Thursday. They keyed in on your Marshall photo. I thought that was you!

:cheers:

MODS: if you need to take this down due to being repetitive I completely understand.

I know this topic has been posted several times but with some new services coming available I was hoping to gain some insight from those of you who have used them. I am not a tech geek, but literate. I have never used streaming services and am not interested in downloading several pop up blockers and/or getting viruses from unsafe sites. Help?

Specifically, has anyone tried Fubo?

Thanks guys!

Last night all Rob Quinn managed to do as our starting weak-side edge rusher is No sacks No Tackles just 1 assisted tack!

Click to expand...

On the last play of the game...Quinn was near Aaron Donalds sack...He was on one knee...and was...I guess in a position that he basically was....I'd call it submission...kinda letting the O-lineman know, hey the play is over...then Donald almost slams Hoyer into the back of their legs...His head was down...He just seems like a shell of himself....

Back injuries are no joke.

Im most worried about Joyner and Sullivan. Those can be nagging injuries. Oh and also kwebb.

I have no real concerns with LJ. LJ might have been the best playing DB before his hammy took him out. Lucky for Wade that he has Cody Davis, Blake Countess & John Johnson behind LJ. If a worn down Garcon can beat out Trumaine Johnson wonder what a Cowboy named Dez Bryant will do to him.

Blythe did a very good job in playing for Sullivan. Sully's gromet may be broke but better than his back. I was wondering how long Sully would last before a injury would come along.

Our OL opened up holes for much of the game using zone concepts. It's not surprising that the 49ers were able to make a stand when it became power vs. power. We've got a big OL, but they aren't the most powerful unit in the NFL.

Great analysis.
