Golden Nuggets: No Bruce? hm....

by James Brady on Nov 27, 2009 3:00 AM PST in 49ers Links

Morning folks, James here. First off, here's to hoping your Thanksgiving went well, mine was a bit up and down but it recovered well! I hope all of you had a good time eating and watching football, and I'm hoping that LondonNiner didn't go too hungry without all that turkey! I'll have you all know our loveable Londoner wished us all a happy Thanksgiving without even a little bit of resentment, so he gets a shoutout in the Nuggets. (Lame prize I know, sorry.) Anyway.. we've got a game on Sunday, the Jaguars are coming to Candlestick and I'm hoping the 49ers have a good win coming their way. I know that last time I was told that if I exhausted my voice during the game we would win, well I couldn't talk for a day and I plan on doing it again as I'll be once again attending said game. I don't know how many links I have for you, but deal with it you ungrateful lot! Just kidding.. here's your links, folks.

49ers offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye is urging the fans to give Alex Smith a chance. (SacBee.com)

Smith seems to have 100% of Raye's backing. Hm.. (PressDemocrat.com)

He says that his play has "tilted towards outstanding." Now I know we are watching different quarterbacks. Smith hasn't been outstanding since college. (PressDemocrat.com)

WR Isaac Bruce won't be active for the game on Sunday. I suppose he's done then, huh? More room for Jason Hill, I guess. (MercuryNews.com)

CB Dre Bly will be starting in place of Tarell Brown, who hasn't been playing up to par. Am I the only one who strongly dislikes Bly? Oh well, I guess. (PressDemocrat.com)

The move was made because, obviously, the 49ers passing defense hasn't played very well. (MercuryNews.com)

Here's a 49ers team report, a bit of an update on where the team stands at this point in the season. (Yahoo.com)

When a OC is lobbying...

For his second starting QB in the season after Turkey Day , he should be fired.

Well, we're waiting....

Because..

I think Raye should be fired. =)

Makes perfect sense now.

I don’t think the 49ers will win until they get a QB. Both of our QB’s are backups at best. We need someone with a few years in the league, but still has some shelf life on him. Some one like a Matt Ryan, or Aaron Rogers. I know these 2 are out of the question, but someone in that nature.

I agree...

but I also think they should give Smith a chance with a real offensive line and a consistent OC…and this is only Matt Ryans second year, and this is only Aaron Rodgers second year starting, not good examples lol :)

New Coach

when you get a new coach you are going to see changes. Right now coach is doing two things. Getting into the playoffs and seeing which players fit his system. Expect major changes this offseason on offense and defense.

Let's get the division!
