    I'm definitely not taking anything away from Wilson. I think he's a tremendous player, it was just tlong's "much better" crap that made me laugh. My biggest fear about Kap is injuries. He's so tall and thin. Running QBs always seem to suffer a major injury at some point. I love that he can move, but I think he needs to use his arm and his brain more than his legs.

    Definitely agree. Kaep will get flattened by a hit during a game in career when he tries to run. After that happens he will change things up. If he continues to work on being a pocket passer while still having his athleticism and speed, Kaep could be the best qb in the league.

    The dude has an insane arm. I read one story that he broke one of Randy Moss' fingers with a simple toss during a game. 97 mph fastball.... just crazy.

    You know what, I was in a much worse mood when they were getting blown out. After they mounted the comeback, which obviously fell short, I was okay with it. I was disappointed that they lost, and I had hoped for better, but they proved that they belonged there. Damn near pulled off the biggest comeback in NFL SB history. We've got a good shot at getting back there.

    Have you looked at our free agent list?

    yeah, nobody irreplaceable

    next year looks good, but we need eddie d to cash out a couple big free agents, like the good old days :lol:

    and yeah, i was morose after the 2nd half kickoff, and when they came back it was amazing, but to get so close....its tough

    That's kind of how I felt when the Seahawks played the Falcolns. At least seeing your team fight back and nearly win gives you some admiration for your team.

    I thought Gore was going to score on that long run at the end. I think I was mostly disappointed with the final play calling on the last four plays.

    LMJ's fumble cost SF the game? What, because the Ravens then drove 75 yards on the 'vaunted' 49er defense to make it 14-3 after that turnover?

    What cost the 49ers the game was dumb coaching on 1st and Goal late in the game, where neither Gore nor Kaepernick even attempted to run the ball into the end zone by design, and not a single pass was set up to go into the end zone.

    Exactly. Obviously LMJ's fumble didn't help the cause, but there were many mistakes that could be pointed to, and like you said, that final possession was just horrible. Not one well designed play. It's like JH was too worried about giving the ball back with too much time on the clock, rather than being worried about scoring the damn ball.

    Wilson IS better than Kaepernick. No question about it.

    I know who I would prefer and it is RW. Better deep ball and smart runner. His work ethic can not be questioned. He has proven that his height is not an obstacle.

    What stats are those? They certainly aren't the stats I've read.

    Has anyone seen anything as to why Cary Williams wasn't ejected? Just curious. I mean, it's actually a rule that any intentional contact with the ref in that nature is an automatic ejection (at least according to a few articles I've read). So I'm just curious if anything further has come out about it.
