Wait, who's the better QB again?


  • These referees are awful. 
  • These referees are awful. Obvious bad call on PI leads to GB's first TD. 
  • These referees are awful. I will never complain about the regular guys again. 
  • Interesting that every compliment this "top" announcing crew (especially Aikman) gives the 49ers sounds like it came through firmly clenched teeth. 
  • 63-yard kick from David Akers..are you kidding me?
  • These referees are awful.
  • 3rd downs- 2/6, with 2 others converted on penalties..blah. It was good to see them converting a lot on earlier downs.
  • Aaron Rodgers looked like he had no idea what to do against a real defense. He's good, but maybe people need to look at their schedule last year again before they go crazy. 
  • Judging by the Rams' utter collapse, and the hilarious slapfight that was Cards/Seahawks, in the early going I'm not at all worried about the rest of the NFC West. 
  • These referees are awful. Clear block in the back leads to 2nd GB touchdown. 
  • Aaron Rodgers takes a huge crap on the field, leading to the TD that is the ultimate difference in the game. Perfect demonstration of the theory that relying completely on offense is a bad idea. 
  • My neighbors hate me after that Gore TD. What a great play to stay in bounds.  
Whew, that 4th quarter was intense. Once again, this team demonstrates what makes them different from when the Mikes were running the show- if, by some miracle, a Mike-coached 49ers team had been in contention, that punt return would have KILLED them. There's no chance they recover from that. This team is different. They be realllll, son.

The 49ers thoroughly dominated this game, it was not as close as the final score. In so doing they sure seemed to prove that last year was not, in fact, a fluke. If they played this well on the road against a team this good, they can beat any one, any week. Expecting another 13 win season might be a bit much, but at the same time it's not ridiculous. This team is insanely good.
