The next team the Niners face will figure out how to stop Kuperrnickk and if not the next team the team after that. In other words, game films and a good defensive plan will show this really good quarter back's record performance to be an anomaly

Then Gore will run for 200 yards against them.....when you have the Niners' offensive line, stopping anyone is easier said than done.

Manziel, at 6’ 1’’ is borderline in terms of size for the NFL, Kaepernick is 6’ 5”.

Kaepernick had five wins, two losses and one tie this year. He had over 10,000 yards passing and 4,000 yards running in college.

He has been getting better every week, and is making fewer mistakes lately.

Wilson has also improved with each week, that’s what makes a Seattle-Niners rematch so intriguing. Both are fun to watch.

Brees is 6’ 0”. Since many NFL teams are supposedly uninterested in Manziel despite the Heisman, it might be interesting to see if the Saints pick him up when he finally goes pro.

Yes, maybe Seattle did have a slight advantage at home against SF. But they kicked ass big time. And if Seattle wins tomorrow, going back to the West Coast to play next week will seem like another home game to them. And I’m not counting my chickens. I’m just rooting for my pocketbook. LOL

Brees isn’t considered a running quarterback.

What bugs me about tomorrow is that prediction from that libtard Nate (Mr. “I predicted Obama’s election wins...twice!”) Silver which said Seattle was going all the way and win the Super Bowl. Can you say “kiss of death”? I knew you could.

The Niners built their team the right way....you start and end with the offensive line....if I have the best offensive line in the league, I am guaranteed to win at least 8 games, no matter who I have at quarterback and the other “skilled” positions.


The O line is important. Rodgers had the crap beat out of him this season. I’m surprised he hasn’t had a career ending injury. But they need a defense badly. They had no defense whatsoever tonight, even with the vaunted returns of Clay Matthews and Charles Woodson. If I were Rodgers, I would try to get out of GB. The rest of his career will go nowhere as long as he stays with them.

I picked Seattle a few weeks ago, thinking I was pretty much alone, now they’ve become the “sexy” pick.

He's such a wonderful young man, too.
Read about him here.

As a fourth grader, Kaepernick wrote himself a letter predicting that he will be 6 feet 4 and "then go to the pros and play on the Niners or Packers even if they aren't good in seven years."

Exactly. I just hope the players tomorrow don’t go into this thinking it’s in the bag. Remember the old adage, “On Any Sunday”....

Funny how Rodgers grew up wanting to play for the Niners, and Kaepernick wanted to be a Packer.

Brees was considered too short to be a good pocket quarterback in the NFL.

SF's going to have to have a much better game plan to beat Seattle than they did here against GB. All this broken-pass-play, QB scrambling for 181 yards against GB's lousy rush defense isn't going to work against Seattle's tough defense.

SF has a less-than-medicore passing offense, but the 5th best rush offense in the NFL. To beat Seattle, they must mostly run and have a ball-control offense, which in turn can open up the passing game (especially short passes). These stupid hail-Mary, on-a-wing-and-a-prayer pass plays and throws into double coverage will kill SF.
