Records: 49ers (2-3) Eagles (2-3)
Bodoglife.com Spread: 49ers +5; Over/Under 42.5; Money Line: 49ers +175, Eagles -210 - I'll go 49ers and the under.

Week 6 Prediction Games - If you forgot to pick any of the games, you can always just predict the later ones to get any points you can. If you miss all of today's you can just pick MNF if you want.
Injuries
49ers: Probable - SS Michael Lewis; Questionable - LB Roderick Green; Doubtful - LB Manny Lawson; Out - CB Shawntae Spencer, OT Jonas Jennings
Eagles: Probable - DE Victor Abiamiri, S Quintin Demps, DE Darren Howard, RB Dan Klecko, QB Donovan McNabb, TE L.J. Smith; Questionable - WR Kevin Curtis, DE Juqua Parker; Out - G Shawn Andrews, S J.R. Reed, RB Brian Westbrook, WR Reggie Brown
Inactives

And so we reach another important game for the 49ers. It doesn't get any easier in the coming weeks, so holding serve at home would be huge. Who cares if it ends up an ugly win...just get a win.

3-2
I hope there’s absolutely no more scoring in the Detroit – Minnesota game. A 3-2 finish would be really awesome.

I am an idiot
In my non-NN fantasy league I have Peyton and Cutler. Peyton has sucked so far. Cutler has been good. On ESPN they have fantasy rankings each week. Everyone said that Cutler was a better play than Manning. Manning has 3 TD passes already. I benched him.

manning
In one of my non-NN leagues I have Manning and Garrard. Sometimes I’m tempted by Garrard but Manning is just too capable of blowing up. Of course I’m 2-3 thanks to his less than stellar performances to date.

I wish Alex Smith was still the QB
But, it’s for selfish reasons. I live in Utah, and during his tenure as QB they showed almost every Niners game on TV here. Now, I have to watch “good” teams play. I’m sorry, but a bad Niners game is still more fun than a good Cowboys one.

Two questions:

2.) Isn’t a cup of coffee a better investment than Wall Street these days? You get a cup of coffee and then you get a cup to beg with.

Last year
the cover story was that the defense was getting worn out because the offense was so bad.
This year I think Nolan’s defense, both strategy and personnel decisions, is being exposed. They come out on the field playing prevent. The big sub is just a reflection of Nolan’s conservative coaching style. And if you’re going to call a conservative game, you can’t make stupid mistakes. Nolan blew the game management once again this first half, between challenging and not challenging plays, and his timeout use was terrible.
