I'm actually quite amazed that the Jest couldn't win in SF. SF has a a lot of weapons on offense - and have started executing since they benched that INT machine in favor of the highly efficient Hill.

But SF's defense just plain sucks. I would have expected Farve and Co. to kill them, but they didn't. So I gotta think that the Jest are in a late season tail spin. That the wear and tear of the season is breaking down the old man, that Mangini can't coach when it matters, that playing rookies in the secondary has finally caught up.

But I'm a little worried about this weeks game. Like we did, SF held Buffalo to 3 two weeks ago. And I'm not sure that Singletary hasn't added an element of toughness to that team. He was very well thought of as a LB coach, and I can imagine that his first order of business once the idiot coaching the team before him got canned was probably getting the defense straitened out.

I'm afraid if we have one trap game left in the season, its this one.

I do not know much about SF defense but if you are right we should be able to score enough points to win the game and we are at home so thats an advantage right there.

I say our defense comes up big with joey porter adding 3 sacks to his team leading 16.5.

Their leading rusher frank gore had a sprained ankle last week. That should slow their running game. I trust our rushing defense enough to nearly blank them especially without gore. Even if he plays it wont be the same. He was in serious pain yesterday. Reminded me of smiley when he was coming off the field.

I was impressed the way our rushing defense held the bills to about 45 yards running the ball. They should be even better this week against the lowly 49ers.

BTW the bills have one of the tallest and heavies offensive lines in football. OUR D line did a terrific job yesterday against the run.

We are not the jets. Point and case. We must protect our house and the jets falling to the 49ers plays in our favor cause we have something to focus on. They beat the bills and the jets so we dont want to be next. This is no longer a trap game.

Mike Martz's offense is scary but we can take em!

I think that will be the case again next sunday, especially with Gore being hampered by a sprained ankle. If we shut down their run game, we'll be able to get after Hill and the D should have another big day. The only thing that scares me is when we rush the qb, we leave open lanes for the qb to take off as we saw yesterday again Losman. A smart qb will exploit that and hurt us especially on third downs.

I think the Jets went into a bit of a tailspin. You could tell from the first play when SF tried the onside that they were going to play loose and free, and with intensity, and you could tell by the Jets punting 4 plays later that they were just playing not to lose.

SF is the only team to win coming east, and going west is almost as bad. I'm glad we get the home field this weekend. I think the big difference between this year and last is that we're winning close games and I think we'll carry through this weekend.

we're gonna win this one. Jets suck.

San Francisco is playing much better under Singletary. This won't be an easy win.

I know the phin players are smelling playoffs. San fran has nothing to play for. But you are right, this won't be an easy victory. They seem to be playing well for singletary.

I'm confident sparano won't let his players take this game lightly.
We are at home and the players and crowd will be pumped!!!!!!
