The Fat Man Has Sung
Whatever playoff hopes we so mistakenly entertained are now squashed like my wife on our wedding night. As I sit here watching the Cheatriots lose to the Whiners with the help of one Brandon Lloyd, and we hear of other former rams making plays for their new teams, I can only dream of what our team would be like if we had some playmakers of our own. Although today's game was lost on both sides of the ball, the way this year has shaped up is a definite result of the tremendous lack of proven talent at the WR position. We see the Whiners winning because they stuck with Alex Smith and they stuck with Michael Crabtree and they have developed their players to keep them, not let that development help someone else just when these guys are ready to roll. I truly hope that we do not let any of our young guys escape after this year, and that we add at least one accomplished veteran to lead them.

NFL WORST
Martz pointed out that the Rams are the worst in the NFL on 3rd and short. Unbelievable that with SJ39 and D-Rich slammin' holes we are so stinkin' bad.
We cannot win the division unless that issue is resolved. Doesn't mean we will win if it is resolved, but definitely can't without it.
We need more concentration out of timeouts and quarter changes too, our execution has been horrible in those situations too.

Its a Dead Horse
And I'm beatin the hell out of it! Last week I discussed the horrible officiating and now once again the regular, "good" officials have stunk up the joint so badly that my hatred of Roger Goddell is quickly waning.
What in the world happened Sunday? There are seven, SEVEN highly paid line judges who straight blew the time clock in the first half and it directly impacted how that half ended, whether giving the 49ers a better chance to try for the TD or giving the Rams a better chance to score before going into the locker room. Then the worst of it all, with 30 seconds left and the Rams going to kill the clock the officials respotted the ball with the clock still running, costing them about 10 seconds that would have been huge to have at the very end.
I know, I know, we shot ourselves in the foot with 13 penalties and Bradford should have thrown the ball away on that last sack which would also have saved us precious time but still, those clock issues, calls and non-calls were brutal. For a group of zebras who just two months ago had the sympathy of an entire nation they sure are crapping on our affections.
I'm almost with Goddell - if this is the way it's gonna be then by all means fire these idiots and go with the much cheaper replacements and make them the standard so we at least expect to be screwed every game. This is a travesty and needs to stop. I'm the farthest thing from a 49ers fans but I'm also a fan of fairness and equality and if this tie comes back to haunt either of us when it comes to a playoff spot or seeding then it will truly be awful.
Next week we play the Jets and I expect us to get the short end once again, for the NFL wants them to win so badly that any chance the refs get to make that happen will not go unfulfilled. We need to play much smarter, continuing to give SJ39 the ball and riding his back instead of allowing the officials to matter. With a full team we should destroy the stupid Jets, moving one step closer to competing for a playoff spot in this horrible unsettled NFC.
