I don't know about better. Nobody is better at running the read option than Griff--Kaep probably could have ran for 150 yards based on what I saw last night, he handed the ball to gore too many times when he could have taken the edge.
He is smarter though, RGIII takes a lot of risks to get the extra 1st down.
I hope Kaep continues to improve though. I don't like how long he takes to deliver the ball--guys make their breaks and he hits team way too late sometimes, but he's basically a rook right now so I love his potential.
Dominic Rhodes?
Refs were as shit as usual, meaning they were fine.
The one thing I did not like was how they did not throw out that Ravens player who was punching a Niners after the INT. I think that criminal even shoved a ref and yet still did not get tossed.
Would not have any effect on the outcome, but I just like to see justice done and Ravens punished for their stupidity.

Been saying that since 2006!
Kaep was definitely a little scared last night. Not especially surprising considering how green he is. You could really seem him shitting his pants on almost every pass after that horrible INT.
Not a good time to shit your pants though. Might be a long time before the Niners get back there.

Haha, I've never been one of those "Brady is only good because of the system" guys but Bill is definitely good at maximizing the potential of his QB's (and all of his players, for that matter).
Of course, once Tannehill gets some receivers it won't really matter who's playing QB for the Pats.

Once the Pats get a defense it wont matter what receivers the Dolphins have.
Hey, Darkest, is there a way to transfer information between SD cards for the 3DS? Can I just buy a newer card and c/p everything over to it from a PC? Layton and Fire Emblem are too big for the card that came with it, but I had no fucking idea what a "block" was so I didn't know that til I tried to download it last night.

As long as Jim can't call timeouts or throw challenges, I guess he's ok.
Larry Bird is not coming through that door. The defense is gone and dead.
Also, you need a quarterback as well.
Time to trade Brady to the Jets and hit the reset button.

Apparently it's as simple as dragging and dropping to and from a PC:

Brady is more durable than the Rapist.
Awesome, thanks. How are you liking it so far?
Thats because he has the best line in football and is such a pussy he goes down when pressure comes instead of standing up and delivering the ball (that is when he is not going cleats out and trying to take out homeless guys' knees).

I'm too old to have started playing it last night and I'm stuck at work for now... but let's just say I have my evening planned out.

Lol what happened to the Niners fans?

Can't watch but I assume the vid is a montage of losing to Eli twice.

Niners radio was a lot of fun this morning. The hosts wanted to talk about anything but the refs, but every caller ONLY wanted to talk about the refs. They were shedding callers like crazy.
Also, Gata, you were wrong. We did win. FACE!

So Dolphins age is Jeff Ireland fired yet? Do we even have draft picks???

I was wondering this as well. Felt like if it was another game you'd have a double ejection on both sides.
Scab refs just lost control.

We'll get revenge next year.
Thought I read somewhere that they are in great shape capwise and don't have many FA's.
They do some voodoo shit there.

Ireland has basically set the team to do big things this offseason. 5 picks in the first 3 rounds and $40 million + in cap room means they could look very different (and hopefully better) by the start of next season.
Ireland hasn't been great but he has improved over the past few years (especially since Parcells left). This will be his make or break year, I'd say.
Isaac and Delanie are UFA, so is that fraud Goldson but he sucks anyway. Losing Isaac would be a big loss for that D.
Ben gets hit like that 8 times a game. So do Rodgers and Vick.
Pats fans don't realize that a lot of qbs are actually allowed to be hit and don't get a flag when they start crying.
We play the fucking Ravens (one of the dirtiest and hard hitting teams in football) twice a year and every year they try to hurt all of our players, especially Ben.

Can't wait until the Pats get to abuse Ben in new England next season.
Yup, he's really the only player they need to keep so I imagine they will. I don't think the NT franchise tag is very high. Ngata is getting $8.5 so I'm guessing he will command something similar, but even if they are up against it cap wise they will dump Alex Smith which saves some money.

My brother is in the "I'm going to Disneyworld commercial"
He signed a waiver, and they were going to film it before the blackout, with them pretending something great happened. The blackout happened, the Niners came back and the film crew didn't. But in the end, they did film them, just reacting to the game, instead of acting. He's the idiot with a purple headband right in the front of the shot next to some classy dude with a painted face and purple pimp hat and cape.

I'm here, pissed, depressed, just a range of emotions.

Columnist for WEEI FM wrote a pretty critical piece on Simms' flip-flop analyses from yesterday.

I barely heard the commentary during the game because the bar was loud as hell.

Like they did the last time we played?
It will be fun seeing Ben convert 90% of his passes to wide open receivers and tight ends for 3 straight hours again.

He'll get the $20 million per year deal he wanted probably. Which means that Rodgers is going to get a monster deal.
Thanks Flacco
Rodgers is grossly underpaid. What, $9.5 million/year? All credit to him for not crowing about it at all.He'll get the $20 million per year deal he wanted probably. Which means that Rodgers is going to get a monster deal.
Thanks Flacco
He is going to be either the highest paid qb in the league or at worst in the top 3 in salary.
Ravens have no choice but to pay the man. They would have saved probably 30-40 million dollars if they paid him last year.
:lol

lol That was the first time they beat Brady in years.And the Pats almost came back and won.

I hope we can draw some marquee free agents (at wide receiver) and fill in some slots in the cornerback and O-line to support Tanny. If Ireland makes the right moves I'll start to kinda warm up to him being the GM for a while
I still hate his guts though
You have shitty perception.
The Steelers curb stomped the Pats in that game. They had no chance. A Carson Palmer garbage time stat padding fest means nothing.
BaltimoreLarry

You should be happy, here's why:
Ravens Free Agents:
Ed Reed
Dannell Ellerbe
Maake Kemoeatu
Paul Kruger
Carey Williams
Bryant McKinnie
Matt Birk and Ray Lewis retiring. All of them starters.
RFAs that matter: Dennis Pitta, Ed Dickson, and Arthur Jones.
Going to be real hard to fill those holes.
Oh well, SUPERBOWL CHAMPIONS!!!!
