San Francisco 49ers @ Dallas Cowboys Second Half Thread

49ers_logo_medium  @  Th_cowboys_icon_medium

Good call by foosball4949.  As bad as that second quarter was, the 49ers aren't completely out of this thing yet.  This is the kind of half where Mike Singletary can earn that full head coaching position and remove the interim title.  So, we're gonna roll with the new thread and hopefully mix up that momentum.

And let's hope Nate Clements knocks "the smile" off of TO.  Or maybe Patrick Willis on a pass play over the middle.

GO NINERS!

God this sucks.

They don’t even have to try. At all. “Oh we need redzone? here TO, just trot over there casually, pay no heed to the tiny cornerback with tiny legs that cant keep up when you’re not even at full speed. i’ll throw it right there with all the time in the world”

I refuse

To call this game. I know we can do it, they know they can do it, and we don’t have any other options but to fight. Forget wins and losses, have some respect and just play your asses off- i think you’ll be surprised how close we can get when we put our heads down and battle through it

FACE IT.

The niners are a BAD TEAM with bad players, and bad free agents (clements, smith done ANYTHING today???). couple that with an overrated offensive coordinator trying to run an offense that is way over their heads and a defense with no pass rush and we have the team we have today, a bad one.

Bill Cowher and Matt Cassell?

Shaun Hill is fine, but not the future. Maybe Cassell can be?

And I think the Niners should go after Cowher hard in the off-season. Singletary may have a future but he is not ready to be a head coach. We should offer Cowher GM powers and the head coach position…maybe he’d be excited about the chance to bring the storied Niners organization back to respectability in the league?

Wow, stellar argument

Just opening the conversation. Obviously a lost cause.

Just trying to start an actual conversation about the future of the team

And he returns with “screw you.” I guess I should know better than to raise an actual discussion.

My STOP was to him…I just didn’t want you calling him an idiot in return. I appreciate the discussion raised.

Fair enough

Sorry Fooch…the niners make me ornery these days.

Peaceful discussion from here on out.

Based on what?

Not disagreeing that its possible, but what are you seeing that I’m not?

the Niners are a completely different team since he took over

not much to go on yet, he’s only coached what? 3 games now? – but just saying lots of potential here

I can agree with that

I think they are definitely improved. But that doesn’t mean he’s ready. They’ve continued to make some pretty terrible play calls at key times. I wouldn’t dump Singletary unless we can land a great coach.

i think we should go for a rookie

I don’t think we should waste our money that should be going for dbs, ol, and dl, on a qb. we should grab a rookie in the draft, we should let him sit a year behind shaun hill and develop and then we should spend our money on dbs, ol, and dl. ok???? Good enought

by renke81 on Nov 23, 2008 1:06 PM PST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I agree that those are all problem areas

And I think Shaun Hill is decent, just not sure if he is the kind of guy that can lead a team for an entire season. I also think our biggest problem area over the last few years has been coaching staff and I don’t think Singletary is ready.

Curious: Who do you see as a possible rookie QB for us to target?

man i have no idea

I’m always worried about picking someone that doesn’t pan out. I like Stafford from Georgia, but he might be gone by the time our pick comes in the draft, you never know

by renke81 on Nov 23, 2008 1:14 PM PST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Yeah, I agree on Stafford

He is legit. And the Oklahoma QB (blanking on the name).

If we can land the right guy, I would be in favor of holding on to Hill for another year.

We sort of beat ourselves in this one – 5 times in the redzone, only 2 TDs to show for it. Peace guys.

Those two early drives inside the five yardline stalling

that made a big difference. And the second quarter meltdown.

I’m not sure if it was close or it just looked that way at the end. It sure didn’t feel close in the second half.

Shaun Hill

Is still my choice. I don’t think Donovan McNabb could have come back from that momentum shift on the road. Coach Sing is falling into a lot of the same situations Nolan found himself in- the only difference I want to see is how he responds. I hated Nolan’s response, and now we have to see what Sing will do when he gets kicked in the junk like he did today.

I haven't given up on Singletary.

I haven’t seen all that much except that I think the team plays harder, whatever they say on FOX.

The problem is that Singletary is stuck with Nolan’s coaching staff (mostly; Warthog is gone), so coming in in the middle of the year you don’t get a good grasp of how Singletary would have done if he’d started head coaching last December. You don’t know who he’d put on his staff, what he’d do for quarterback, even what his overall coaching philosophy would be.

In short, while I’m glad Nolan is gone, I don’t know if Singletary is or isn’t the guy. I don’t think that Cowher wants to come out here, but if he did I’d take him. I’d still love to see an offensive mind as head coach myself, and I think we’ve seen the limits of the greatest show on turf so Martz isn’t the guy. I’m not sure if there is a good offensive candidate available. I dunno.

As for QBs, S. Hill didn’t have a great game but the fail today seemed pretty systematic, not just on him. Gore was stuff consistently, and that pretty much reduces your offense to pass. It’s nice to see someone cool under pressure and there were a number of times he slithered out of the grasp to make a play or throw it away.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with discussing possibilities for next year, especially after a game like today. I’d just remind everyone that all the information isn’t in on this season. If the Niners turn things around we’ve got something to build on. If they don’t we’ve got something to tear apart and start over.

coaching staff

You make a good point about the coaching staff. You mention nothing wrong with discussing next year’s possibilities and it’s got me thinking of a post for tomorrow. I’m thinking of something opening discussion about up the kind of coaches Singletary could use next year (if he were to return as head coach).

OOPS

boy, i do wish I was wrong. But I wasn’t, so there. All you people who questioned my fandom can now just see it for what it is: realism. I saw this coming a mile away when we were supposed to be up 14-0 and only had 6 points.
