ANTHONY!!! -- As your unofficial JG Case for the Defense Argument Counter, I'm obliged to point out that you forgot to mention that this year's league MVP, Rich Gannon, hasn't thrown a pass longer than 20 yards all season long and you don't hear anyone bitching about his lack of arm strength. Because, of course, it's a canard. If your offense is properly designed, you simply don't need a cannon behind center.
Trev - I thought that article by Kriedler was one of the worst analyses of the 49ers I've seen this year. Because you can't have it both ways: you can't run around arguing that SF needs to get the ball to Owens 12 times a game and then turn the fact that Garcia has been looking to do just that into a point of criticism.
Hires and Fires: George Stewart, he's the receivers coach, right? He's the one coach who needs to be fired before anyone else. If there's one area of our offense that has dragged down everything else, including Garcia's performance and our rushing attack, it's the unreliability of the passing game, especially on first down. Why? I think it's because our receivers have been doing an awful job running routes, even Owens, and I think that has to be down to the coaching they're getting.
Knapp I'd consider canning too. But Mora and DeHaven have done sterling jobs with units that have been plagued by injuries and both deserve to stay.
Looking to Sunday, it was imperative that we get Bronson back on the field, especially with the likelihood that Rumph will have to do duty for Webster.
The absence of Winborn worries me much less. Our current linebacking rotation is probably the most solid unit on the entire team.
As to how we beat the G-Men. Well, we have the most dominant offensive player in the playoff field and we have a QB who's thrown him almost 50 TDs over the past four years. We also have a fast, powerful second-year running back named Kevan Barlow who's hungry for NFL glory, and I predict he's going to be the difference maker.
Defensively, we should blitz and blitz and blitz again. Balls out, no quarter, get to Collins. If he beats us once or twice, it's all right. The important thing is to pressure him. Let me rephrase that: the important thing is to knock him silly.
I'm I scared of what might happen on Sunday? Yeah, but I'm not going to let you guys see it.
