THIS. OFFENSE. SUCKS.

Anyone believe me now? When your owner feels the (stupid and misguided) need to publicly apologize after a humiliating loss, I think it's probably time to admit you have a problem. Either Colin Kaepernick is not a professional quarterback or Greg Roman doesn't know how to use him. There are no excuses left for this offense- the O line is good enough and the skill positions are stacked with talent. It's the QB or it's the coaching, there's nothing else left. That was a pathetic, unprofessional showing. Can't use the excuse of a short week- you were at home 2 weeks in a row. If there's any way to be ready for a short week, the 49ers had it. That was nonsense.

I stopped watching after 1 quarter because I knew exactly how this game was going to go. Kaepernick is either really injured in a way that we haven't heard about, or the league has adjusted to his one move and he can't get past it. The offense is broken in a way that obviously is not fixable, because it's been a good 3 or 4 straight weeks of this. I almost hope they don't make the playoffs so at least the dull ache won't turn into crushing disappointment. Screw this team.

This Offense Sucks

      Kaepernick is not getting better. He's the same disjointed, uncomfortable0looking athlete posing as a QB that he's always bee...oh wait sorry that's exactly what I wrote last week. And lookie there! It's still true! 

What I liked about this game: 

  • The defense (again)
  • Carlos Hyde (probably time to Kevin Barlow the bull Gore, as much as I love him)
  • Anquan Boldin, because how on earth is he still walking after that hit
What I hated about this game:

  • Literally everything else about the offense
     I didn't watch all or even most of this game, because, really, why? This team is horrible to watch this season. Here's what I know, though: the. Redskins. suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. They are like the mid 2000s 49ers but without the solid QB play (har har). No self-respecting playoff team should need a late 4th quarter touchdown drive to beat this team!!!!!!!!!!!!! (MORE EXCLAMATIONS!!!!!!!!). I'm happy they at least were able to do it, though. That broke the streak of keeping the crappy team in the game, losing the lead, and then collapsing on offense. The suck was too strong with the Redskins, but it won't be with literally any other team that's not from Jacksonville. 

     7-4 is all that really matters (and now only 2 games behind the soon to be 9-7 Cardinals), but good god. I think I get to complain a little about losing to a complete disaster of a team who was playing on the road and whose QB is Peyton Manning but without the smarts, accuracy, or mobility. 

     The only comfort comes from knowing Seattle is not much better, and at least the short week game is at home and coming after a home game. They're going to lose it, though. God what a pathetic performance that was.

This offense sucks

     Kaepernick is not getting better. He's the same disjointed, uncomfortable0looking athlete posing as a QB that he's always been, only now defenses have wised up and his athleticism has largely been negated. I mean really, though- your defense gives you FIVE TURNOVERS against a 3-6 team and you score 16 points? And we're supposed to think this is a good team? No, no sir. This was a joke of a game against a crap opponent and they barely scraped out a win. Anyone who thought the Saints win was a major milestone should go ahead and check out the Saints' performance today. Let's just say they are not the 2009 version.

      The good news? The Cardinals are a smokescreen and the Seahawks are imminently beatable, as is pretty much every other team in the NFC. The 49ers own and will always own the Packers, the South sucks, and the east is LOL.

     Just kidding, the good news is actually the defense because GOOD GOD THAT DEFENSE YOU GUYS. It's the kind of defense that can get 5 turnovers, and then when the offense refuses to do anything with them because the offense is incompetent, they just go ahead and win the game themselves. I love how the front office is just like "yeah, we'll take this fifth round white guy and replace PATRICK WILLIS with him, and there will be next to no drop off." "Oh yeah, and that guy we're paying $7 million a year to rush the passer? We have a rookie making nothing who's actually better than him". It looks like Aldon Smith really is a magic talisman of some sort. The defense was RIDICULOUS. I know it's Eli, but the defense ain't looked that good against nobody this year. That was some old school Jim Harbaugh goodness.

     Still pretty sure this team is not going to win a Super Bowl, but equally sure the Cardinals will not win the division. The 49ers have 5 very likely wins in their last 6 games, the Cardinals have 5 very likely losses in their next 6. I look forward to them going a very uninspiring 10-6 and missing the playoffs. Again. Because that is their fate and what they deserve as a franchise because screw the Cardinals.
