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
49ers: QB Jamie Martin, CB Reggie Smith, CB Shawntae Spencer, LB Roderick Green, LB Ahmad Brooks, C Cody Wallace, T Jonas Jennings, LB Manny Lawson.

Eagles: QB A.J. Feeley, S J.R. Reed, RB Brian Westbrook, DE Bryan Smith, G Shawn Andrews, G Mike McGlynn, WR Kevin Curtis, WR Reggie Brown.

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 dunno

I’m not sure it can even work that way. I guess you would be betting 1001 after I bet 1000 if you think everyone else was under… at least in terms of the point differential. Or something. I don’t know, we both picked the same point total.

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.

but then again, it’d be nice to see what Manusky’s philosophy of defense is. Also, either Franklin needs longer cleats to keep him from being pushed back every play, or someone should admit he’s a bust.

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.

And some guy that goes by “AP” is aiite as well.

but yeah, one of the 3 best backs in the league.

That was a touchdown…but too much pressure when he tried the throwback.

I thought that was catchable. With the tivo it looks like it was a bit tougher than I thought at first, but still shoulda been caught

VD’s matched his season total in yards and receptions today so i’ll give him a mulligan for that one

by 49erLou on Oct 12, 2008 3:24 PM PDT reply actions   0 recs

VD has been horrible in the receiving game since he was drafted up until today. I’m not giving him any Mulligans. This should be the kind of game we should expect from VD on a regular basis.

by sam23 on Oct 12, 2008 3:27 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

horrible?

I realize he hasn’t been great, but 52 receptions last season isn’t exactly horrible. I realize he should be better, but to say horrible seems a bit extreme.

And that's why you take the extra points

If they’d gone for 2 and missed it’d be an 8 point game right now, instead of a 2-possession 9 points game.

but Smith, Bruce, and Rossum have been very good too. Good FA spending this offseason.

How perfect

is Takeo next to PWilly? If we could get a legit pass rushing OLB to throw into the mix with Lawson and Haralson we’d have the best LB group in the league.

Justin made that play by reading the screen perfectly

and forcing McNabb to look to the middle and the resulting TS Int.

I noticed him sliding over to cover the running back…good call

by Fooch on Oct 12, 2008 3:33 PM PDT up reply actions   0 recs

actually, it wasn't a screen

And I don’t think McNabb was looking that way, anyway.
But Smith did drop back to take that option away.

because...

a touchdown a yard inside the endzone doesn’t count for as much as a touchdown in the back of the endzone. Obviously.

Now the question is whether the Niners can drive the field for a TD.
