So Beautimous

     That's much more like it re: the offense. In this first half they looked a lot more like the guys we saw when Kap took over last year. Not perfect by any means, but the QB running is working again (I wonder if his injury is better, or if the Titans didn't get the memo on how to stop that?), and that's opening everything else up. Kap is being extremely efficient with his passing, even with the complete lack of acceptable targets. They're running the FULLBACK out wide for god's sake. Crabtree and Manningham cannot get back soon enough. This team needs some NFL wide receivers.


     May seem like a little thing, but the defense clamped down there at the end of the half. 2 timeouts + a 2 minute warning against a team that's really good at scoring late. Usually the 49ers love to give away those free points at the end of a half, I loved the way they looked. Titans couldn't even use their timeouts because they were thoroughly controlled. The Special teams are kicking tail too. This team looks like the one I was expecting to see for most of the first 6 games.


     Also, the Rams are the worst kind of fake-tough. They wish they were Seattle or the 49ers. They are not. They want to be with the big boys by cheap-shotting and trash talking, but they can't back it up. And Jeff Fisher is overrated.
