To me.......that says the 49ers don't have the firepower to match the Saints. They can't covert short drives into TD's and thats why Akers set the FG record during the regular season. No matter how good the 49ers D is.............you can't keep giving Drew Brees chances.
the niners d made adjustments at half and are now dropping more guys to stop the pass .......... the saints should be running the ball more ......... that's what the niners are giving now
Niners offense anent done jack squat sice taking a 17-0 lead...I feel they're going to let this game slip away.
I don't think Alex Smith should be the long-term answer...........he's not the QB that match yard to yard with a Drew Brees. I would seriously make a play for Peyton Manning if he's cleared.
i like how the niners handled that 3rd quarter .............. they uglied up the game, which is what they needed or the saints were going to run away with this game ............. and brees is killing his team right now ........... he is locking on receivers and not finding the open guys .........
god, brees is playing like crap ........ he's not sensing pressure properly, he's locking on receivers, he's not seeing the field to find the open guy .......... in addition, i still say the saints need to be running more ............ the niners are just teeing off because it's pass almost every snap
