The Niners are .500 since Singletary took over, starting to look like a decent team

[jflip2002]

The 9ers may head to mediocrity if they spend their #5 overall pick on a OT.

[Danny]

They need to draft a damn QB.

Or maybe a wideout.

They could trade for a wideout though.

[jflip2002]

You see Danny, SF hasnt figured this out yet. But theres a way to win football.... Its from the inside out. No QB is good without a line. A bad QB can look average with time. A good QB looks like crap with a bad line. And you can have the best defense in the world, besides your DL. If you dont get pressure on the QB, and cont stop the run, you will fail. Thats why Phi and NE draft DL and OL every year for the most part.

Good coaching makes a world of difference too

I respectfully disagree, I think a good QB is the essence to winning a football game.

Just like if you have the greatest car in the world, but have a blind man driving, you won't win any races.

Although I do see your point.

[jflip2002]

Well, thats where philosophies differ. Im an Eagles fan, youre a niners fan. My team drafts linemen. Your team drafts skilled positions. My team wins, yours does not. =\

Cant compare a football team to a Race car. Its almost like going out to war, with the biggest, baddest weapons... but not having any shelter or protection.

[Danny]

I guess because I used to play quarterback my opinion differs from yours because I'm used to having a bad O-line and having to improvise despite lack of protection and making things work. I have just always viewed the QB as the cornerstone of a good offense.

I dunno, all I know is Singletary better do something smart.

I dunno, maybe deangelo williams and jonathan stewart are the cornerstone of a good offense. they ran all over the bucs. the two awesomest plays i saw:

jonathan stewart stiff arms Ronde Barber turning the corner

3rd best offense? I find that hard to believe. There are 4 teams in the NFC East with a better offense.

And I would have predicted philly to beat the piece of shit Giants. Eli is our bitch. 37 passing yards in the first 3 quarters, ftl.

Cool. Go look it up.

The texans had 550 total yards against green bay this sunday.

[Optimator]

HOU. 23rd in scoring.

[nineohfour]

well, the jaguars are horrible. go gators!

If games were won by yardage gained, then thatd be awesome. Unfortunately its not...

HOU. 23rd in scoring.

And scoring is what matters. So in all reality, they have the 23rd best offense.

Hey remember this?

haaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhahaha! the jags will OWN you this year along with the rest of our division (read: strongest division in NFL). we are a juggernaut this year, biaaaach. i mean have you seen our off season moves? btw dallas is still the class of their division. oh and the chargers beatin NO is a horrible superbowl pick.

Nice to see you shutting your mouth. Troy Williamson and Jerry Porter were some HUGE pick ups, lol. Dont you look stupid.... Gotta love those jumping off their teams bandwagon when they suck.

I didn't say we had the 3rd best record or were 3rd in scoring. I said 3rd best offense - which means total yards. If we didn't turn the ball over so much we'd be a top team.
