49ers 26, Rams 0: San Francisco Says 'We Don't Need No Stinkin' Red Zone,' Win NFC West

That was a rather ugly game for a good portion of the time. It was one of those games in which the 49ers offense looked brilliant at times and stagnant at others. When the team hit the redzone, it was truly a time of head scratching, but touchdowns of 52 yards and 56 yards to Michael Crabtree and Kyle Williams respectively said adamantly, "We don't need no stinkin' redzone!"

Had Vernon Davis not dropped a beautiful 40-yard touchdown pass from Alex Smith, it would have put an exclamation point on the fact that, while the 49ers struggled in the redzone, they cut their teeth without it. It's like entering a presidential race but skipping the initial smaller primaries. Who needs those small-time delegates?

Either way, the 49ers defense played strong, they were able to stop Steven Jackson from having a 100 yard game and did not allow a rushing touchdown once again.

Alex Smith gave way to Colin Kaepernick at 7:20 in the game, after going 17 for 23 for 274 yards and two touchdowns. Should have been three touchdowns, but either way, he finished with a 142.3 QB rating, a career high. Kaepernick's game was so-so, but then again, the 49ers offense was extremely basic at that point (some would say it was for large portions of the game), and there was a lot of running.

After the jump, I've got some more bullet points, but until then, how about a ... WHO'S GOT IT BETTER THAN US? NOOOOOBODY! The 49ers secure the NFC West division, and now will solely be looking at playoff seeding going forward.

Star-divide

  • Seriously folks: Bruce Miller. I cannot stress enough how good this guy has been lately. His blocking assignments aren't always covered - as in there's still mental mistakes, but the guy is intense. Wildly intense. What you don't see on TV: Miller colliding with opposing players with ridiculous force on every single play.
  • Adam Snyder played very well, at least in the run-blocking department. I'll need to evaluate him on the sacks given up, but I know that RT Anthony Davis was absolutely shredded by Chris Long. Thankfully, Aldon Smith made Adam Goldberg look like Kwame Harris at one point, with a big third down sack.
  • I still think Alex Smith stayed in the game too long.
  • Frank Gore moved into first place in the 49ers franchise history for rushing yardage. He deserves it, and I'm very proud to have him leading the way. David Akers broke the 49ers franchise record for field goals in a single season, which is both good and bad.
  • Mike Iupati did not have a strong game. He was called for holding more than once, surrendered at least one sack, and all-in-all, looked off of his game. There was one play when he was to disengage, and move out to the right to pass block for Smith, and he just about walked to his assignment. It's not like he's suddenly regressing, but it was unquestionably a bad game for him.
  • Aldon Smith wrecks people's souls. Seriously, that man is a wrecking machine. He picked up a couple sacks in the game, and had a hilarious "celebration", in which he sprinted off the field, slapped a couple hands, sat on the bench and took off his helmet. No "excessive demonstration" there.
  • Dashon Goldson really loves to jump routes. He's getting confident, and it secured him an interception in this game, but he did give up a reception early by mis-timing his jump. Just a minor note.

My only problem with Davis this year is the fumbles.

Seems like every time he fights for yardage, his ball security is lacking. When you’re a big athletic tight end, you have to understand that the defense will swarm you to take you down, protect the ball!

Wait, that's not true

His catch rate is 75%, which is the highest of any TE in the league.

Catch rate is an official statistic which does not measure drops. It only measures how many times you threw at a guy and how many times he caught the ball.

I’m not sure which way it really goes, but all catch rate tells you about drops is the maximum number of drops.

My seniments precisely

I can’t overlook all the good thing he does, but he seems off at times. In the ravens game before the half in our 2 minute drill he refuses to step out of bounds just took show his shakin ability for 2 more yards. The clock keeps ticking. In the words of he great Gazoo “Dumb Dumb”. Then whe he should stay in bounds he tip toes out. Even Pat Willis notces he’s soft when he told him, “Smash em” lower your shoulder, make them safties think about tackling you.T hen he leaps over the top of a CB for a TD. Just run the guy over VD. All that jumpin is unecessary. Dropped a few TDs too. He may be loosing focus with D.Walker getting more looks. His demeanor on the side lines seem to indicate that. “GET ME THE BALL”. I heard it a few times. It would be a shame if in our winning chemistry, he’s unhappy

Actually a pretty safe call

Spread out the defense, run it straight up the gut where the defense is spread thin. It would have been more risky to go in with a 22 set.

They’re going to hold tiebreakers against us, so they’d have to lose this and two more (assuming we win out which is not a given). But we want them working for it.

but he would have gotten a first if he held one.

what amazes me is that this team can play better than it did today. typically, it’s the offense that fouls things up and leaves plays and points on the field with poor play calling and execution, and today was no different. Really, the Tampa game was the only where I don’t think the entire team could have played better. Given their record, including wins against good teams, it’s heartening.

It's really too bad that Von Miller was drafted in the same rookie class.

Both are going to be ballers. Patrick Peterson not looking too shabby either. Once his defense comes around he could be the next Charles Woodson type player (with the return skills to go with it).

2011 was a good defensive rookie class. Possibly good all around.

I think 2012 will be the opposite… good offensive draft class and an okay defensive class.

I don't understand the negativity.

Braylon is clearly capable of plays that very few NFL receivers are capable of.

He’s also clearly – unambiguously – been hurt this year. There is not question of a work ethic issue or maybe of him dogging it. He got hurt and tried to play through it.

I totally fail to see why people are down on him.

He’s dropped passes throughout his career. He bounced back last year with the Jets but it seems that he returned to his old ways in not hanging on. You can’t blame bad knees or whatever on drops that hit you in the hands.

It stemmed from me saying I don't think we should bring him back.

I think he is taking a spot from a rookie we could get in rounds 1-3 that could really be a star possibly. I would not categorize Edwards as “star or elite” at any point in his career (with exception to maybe 2007).

That's on the coaches, not him.

All you can ask a player is to give his best.

If the coaches feel that his best is better than the next guy on the depth chart, you can’t blame him for that.

You’re making the same mistake Nolan made when Alex sucked trying to play through a separated shoulder. You want a guy willing to give his all to his team. If he can’t get it done because of his injury, don’t put him in the game.

by Ronaldinho on Dec 4, 2011 6:39 PM PST up reply actions  

Some of it is yes

But it isn’t all on the coaches…as Harbaugh always says, he’s not in the guy’s body…It is on Braylon to realize when his injury is hurting the team. That is a tough thing for any professional player, they all want to play.

Hell, Willis probably wanted to go back out there today.

How is it counter productive when there are guys on the team who have EARNED the playing time?

I just don’t think he is a Niner is all… whenever you hear him talk he is always like “they” or “them”… instead of “we” .

He can go and won’t be missed. I think that is pretty obvious at this point.

Rookies likely to be available to us with more potential than Braylon?

Are you kidding? He was the third overall pick – our first pick will be in the 20s.

We’re almost certainly going to be drafting OL or DB in the first and second round.

When a player is hurt, you don’t look at what he did “this year.” All he did this year was try to play through injuries. If you’ve watched him play over the years you know he’s very, very good. Hard not to notice the negative impact his departure has had on the Jets offense, too.

There’s more to the game than “what have you done for me lately” especially when a player is injured. I mean, heck, we might as well cut Patrick Willis – what did he do for us today?

I can't agree with the watching him over the years thing.

With exception to 2007, he’s been a pretty big disappointment…. go poll Browns fans or Jets fans… they’ll tell you the same thing. I was high on him and his potential at the beginning of the year, and injuries or not, he has been a pretty big dissapointment.

He's been hurt since our second game!

He had three catches in the first game – best among our WRs (and remember that’s a game when our o-line was terrible and we were having trouble finding time for Alex to throw the ball deep).

He broke a big play in the second game and then was hurt.

He’s been healthy for a game and couple of plays this year. That’s it.

by brundylop on Dec 4, 2011 6:50 PM PST up reply actions  

Exactly

Ginn, Crabtree and Williams on the field today was a tough matchup. Add in Morgan next year, not sure if Braylon is essential.

It all depends on his interest and price too, he hasn’t earned a big contract from anyone, so maybe he’s back just on that. I won’t be upset if he goes elsewhere or we don’t show huge interest in him, that is all I was saying.

But Williams is a speed guy, primarily. He doesn’t have Braylon’s size. Braylon (healthy) is much better in run support and much more dangerous near the goal line, when size and strength matter as much as (if not more than) speed.

I don’t think it’s a coincidence that we lose our receiver who’s (when healthy) probably our most dangerous red-zone weapon and find ourselves really struggling in the red zone.

After hearing AleX's presser tonite ...

… even though he had a great Qb rating , ( 142 ) ….

We had our struggles in the red zone," "The game shouldn’t even have been close at halftime. We can always get better on third down. We let them hang around too long." Smith sounds like his coach…!!.

I'm your " Huckelberry "...it's just my game ..( .AleX ) was asked , what do you think about all the game manager talk ... AleX i guess i just managed myself a VIctory ... Extend the Man ...!!

And when we win, we want to dominate. We want to take guys out. We want to hurt guys. We want to win. We just want to dominate, hit them in the mouth. - Rathman

If we play the Packers

They better call those push-offs too, but I know they won’t.

Culliver was saying Calvin Johnson pushed off him all the time

one time CJ was hollering for a penalty and Culliver yelled back something like “shut up! you do it all the time”

Shutup you are too big to complain

perusing the PoD blog

they are really really blaming this on the refs. I guess every fan base feels that way.

Some of these on Burleson are a bit ticky tack, but it certainly isn’t the reason they are losing.
