Week 14 Prediction Contest - Remember that if you don't get predictions in for the morning games you can still enter predictions for later games and get credit.  You get credit for any predictions entered by kickoff of the given game.  So, if you forget today, you can still predict the MNF game.

Injuries
49ers: Probable - WR Arnaz Battle (foot), S Dashon Goldson (knee), S Michael Lewis (abdomen), WR Josh Morgan (groin); Questionable - CB Nate Clements (thumb); Doubtful - CB Allen Rossum (ankle)

Jets: Probable - WR Jerrico Cotchery (shoulder), DL Shaun Ellis (back), LB Jason Trusnik (knee); Questionable - DB Ahmad Carroll (foot), WR Laveranues Coles (thigh), LB David Harris (groin), S Eric Smith (head)

Ïnactives
49ers: Jamie Martin (third QB), KR/PR Allen Rossum, CB Nate Clements, S Dashon Goldson, LB Ahmad Brooks, C Cody Wallace, T Jacob Bender and WR Josh Morgan.

Jets: Brett Ratliff (third QB), K Mike Nugent, WR David Clowney, RB Marcus Mason, S Eric Smith, CB  David Barrett, LB Jason Trusnik and TE Bubba Franks.

EDITOR'S NOTE 12:15PM: Nate Clements is OUT.  According to MM, Strickland will start at corner and in nickel situations, Strickland will move to the slot and Tarell Brown will be at the corner.

Not much really needs to be said about this game.  The Jets need a win to continue their playoff push and the 49ers need to build on the momentum of last week's win at Buffalo.  There are multiple game-time decisions including Clements, Goldson and Morgan for the 49ers and David Harris for the Jets.  Let's hope for a 49ers upset.

GO NINERS!

yeah, but sometimes that's a negative

The biggest knock on Gore, I think, is his footwork.

Sometimes when he runs that low, he causes himself to stumble through open holes. It’s almost like he’s always charging into something…and if there’s nothing in front of him, then he just tumbles forward.

question: in this god-awful brett favre jeans commercial,

by foosball4949 on Dec 7, 2008 1:47 PM PST reply actions  

while it's on topic, and before I forget...

there was a bit on espn last week that was talking about the Vikings D-line, and the loss of their DTs to the drug suspensions. In that bit, they listed the top 5 defenses in ypc average on runs up the middle…and San Francisco was number two, with something like 3.3 yards per attempt.

Maybe Franklin’s not so awful afterall? I mean the NT isn’t supposed to be a personal glory position, right?

“I have spent the past 15 years nursing my blind hatred for Brett Favre. I’ve brought up my hate. Raised it. Fed it. Nurtured it. Taught it valuable lessons. I’ve watched it grow into full blossom. If my hate were a child (and I do think of my hate that way), he’d be off to Hate College in just a couple years. He’d probably major in Death Threats. Why, he’d be driving by now! He’d be driving his little Hate Car over burning effigies of Favre I would lay out on the driveway. I’ve put a lot of hard work into this hate. My hate and I, we don’t even need to use words to communicate anymore. We can just give each other a subtle glance and know exactly what kind of horrible fate we’d like Favre to experience.”

helmets might have collided

but he led with his shoulder, and that was obvious…

Not a dirty hit in any way, shape, or form.

Nope

but he plays on the west coast, and you know what that means.

Willis didn’t project himself, he just lowered his shoulder and Smith came into him it looked like

Although on the 49ers touchdown (or maybe another successful 49ers play) he yelled out a Yes.

Telling us that the Raiders beat this team actually takes a little bit of the juice out of this win.

I think Hill's the starter coming in

We may draft someone, but there’s enough of a foundation here that we shouldn’t have to throw a rookie into the fire.

And I don’t see us chasing down a Derek Anderson or Kurt Warner

by shlecko on Dec 7, 2008 3:55 PM PST up reply actions  

WHAT THE HELL

when are people like you going to give Shaun Hill the credit he deserves already?

by bondslegend on Dec 7, 2008 3:56 PM PST up reply actions  

Looking back, how big was taking Singletary to be the HC over Martz.

by fwoty oz on Dec 7, 2008 3:54 PM PST reply actions  

and I mean no disrespect to Martz, I’ve just never seen a team turn around so quickly with a coaching change

Sort of a downer,

but how huge is that non-win over the cards now? We’re pretty close to the playoffs if that’s a victory like it should have been.
