    Moss should definitely be the measuring stick for how college kids get treated. Notre Dame, and Florida State, both saw what type of model student they were dealing with.

    49ers gonna be the new Raiders without Harbaugh lol.

    lol @ held back though. The f--- were you held back from?

    You made 3 straight NFC Title Games and a Super Bowl lol

    The f--- type of logic is that? You act like you were getting bounced in the first round of the playoffs, or hovering at an 8-8 record.

    This year, you guys s----d because of injuries, suspensions and Kaepernick's regression. Harbaugh was the LAST thing that held you back.

    Harbaugh not getting along with his players?

    Every time I watched them play, he always looked happy even throwing the football to them, also always seem him and kaepernick getting along, especially when doing something right. Shows how little I know, lol.

    Interesting stat I heard today.

    Ravens WR's are the NFL's best when it comes to drawing pass interference calls.

    Wonder if this is going to have an impact, especially when considering Brandon Browner.

    I wouldn't worry if I were you... The Ravens are coached by a Harbaugh... Which according to @johnny bravo's friends are terrible coaches who barely make it to their Conference title game each and every year they coach.

    Well, if that's the case, we're really in trouble, because Belichick has brought the Pats to 8 AFC Title Games.

    So much s-----y coaching in one game, IDK who wins now.

    Idk if they stoop all the way down to the Raiders, simply because they still have Vic Fangio and despite all the injuries and what not last year, he still had that defense playing at a high level. They were ranked 10th this year in points allowed per game. I can see them having a similar season next year though, 8-8/9-7 and missing out on the playoffs.

    I mean, sure Harbaugh helped them have a good regular season record, but when you can't get your team to the next level and win the big games then there's no reason for the coach to remain on that team. Having a winning record at the end of the season isn't impressive unless you come up with a good coaching strategy to win a few games in the playoffs. You guys say what you want, I still don't miss Harbaugh. No one around here does lol. And obviously the players currently on the team won't talk bad about him to the media. Wait until some of them leave the 49ers. Harbaugh knew he wasn't welcomed by the team and the majority of fans anymore.

    Lions are still reporting that they expect to sign Jarryd Hayne (The rugby guy) as a RB/KR/PR once problems with his visa get cleared up.

    Yea calls get blown
    Of course no one around you "misses him," you guys are biased and he's not coming back. Too bad your s-----y front office ran him out. Bad coaches don't have top level teams ( both college and pro) begging them to take their head coaching job, while they already have an NFL head coaching job. He obviously had a huge hand in completely turning that franchise around, developing the talent they had. He won coach of the year his first year and brought you guys to the Super Bowl in his second, like... what the f--- are you even talking about?

    You do realize you were a play away from winning the Super Bowl with him in his 2nd year as a head coach, right? h---, you guys might of even made it to back to back Super Bowls had Kyle Williams not been an idiot and fumbled on two punt returns. Like, what do you mean he could win the big games? Lol every time you guys got into the playoffs you won at least 1 playoff game lol. You seriously sound so stupid.

    It's going to be a decade before they have to worry about winning play off games again.

    The NFC West is the most competitive division in football and it will be more competitive when the Rams move to LA.

    I hope this Green Bay-Dallas game is cold as f--- on Sunday. I love watching brutally cold games from my warm comfy couch. I wanna see these millionaires on the verge of frost bite.

    wtf there's like 8 pages of talk about my niners and not a f---ing mention? Let me see if I hit on everything I just quickly read through

    Not all 49ers fans hate the raiders, just Bay Area niner fans I think. I don't have a problem with the raiders, I respect their history and list of great players.

    The Super Bowl count argument is f---ing old man, we haven't won s--- since Young got the monkey off his back beating down the Chargers in Super Bowl 29. While I'm proud of the 5, I envy the success of the Broncos, Pats, Steelers, Giants, Packers, and Ravens, the teams that have enjoyed multiple Super Bowl wins since SF won its last Lombardi in 1995. I saw that game vs SD in 95 when I was in 2nd grade. I was a fan but barely knew the rules, understood football, or appreciated the game like I do now so I don't really know the real feeling of joy you get from a championship win like that.

    The 49ers were s--- for years before Harbaugh because of s-----y coaches. The Yorks ran Steve Mariucci out and hired a college coach in Dennis Erickson and put s-----y players around him with terrible drafts. Mike Rumph and Rashaun Woods come to mind. Followed that up by hiring Mike Nolan who impressed the Yorks because he presented a power point slide show at his interview and played the card about his dad coaching SF in the 60s and 70s. While Nolan was a great talent evaluator, he was a bad HC. He drafted guys like Gore, Staley, Davis, Willis, brought Justin Smith over from Cincy in FA. His biggest miss was and most important one, was taking Smith instead of Rodgers in 2005. And then there's Mike Singletary, lol that was Jed rushing to a quick decision on that one and not looking at Pete Carroll.

    As far as SF becoming the Raiders, lol. They'll be fine. People look at the record Harbaugh had and the 3 NFC championships only. Fact is Harbaugh was supposed to be an offensive genius and really wasn't. Offense never improved until Kaep took over in 2012 and surprised teams with the pistol and read option. Vic Fangio is more deserving of the credit for SFs success tbh. Top 10 defense every single year he's been here. Top 5 this year without Bowman, Willis, Smith, Dorsey. Harbaugh didn't want to fire Greg Roman and bring in a different OC for whatever reason. Fine then Harbaugh can go with him. While I don't agree with a lot that Bravo said. I do agree Harbaugh had to go.

    Now who they bring in is the question, As long as Fangio stays I'll be content.

    You guys went from the 24th ranked offense in 2010 in terms of points per game to 9th in 2011 when Harbaugh came in. That was with Alex Smith at QB as I'm sure you remeber. Harbaugh did a lot more than 49er fans give credit for, he jelled that team together.

    Again Fangio had alot to with that too. That defense was creating TOs every which way and giving the team plenty of opportunities. They just asked Alex not to f--- it up. Now to his credit, he didnt. He led the team to a historic TO ratio. And lead the team down the field twice vs the saints in that divisional round game. Ted Ginn had one of his best statistical years returning kicks also that season and David Akers had his best season in 2011. Defensive and ST points also count towards PPG. Akers was the league leader in scoring that season. SF had one of the worst RZ offenses in the league.

    I loved Jim, dont get me wrong. But it was time to move on. Oh and to edit my previous post. Fangios defense has been ranked in top 5 all 4 seasons. Not top 10 like I had stated.

    Edit. Forgot to mention too. 2010 SF had Jimmy Raye as a OC lol. Jimmy f---ing Raye. Until he was fired and replaced mid season by QB coach Mike Johnson who was fired the day Harbaugh took over. Now hes a coach at a High School team in California and Jimmy Raye is an offensive consultant for the Bucs. Ask Bucs fans how they feel about Jimmy Raye. Lol so comparing 2011 to 2010 isn't all that fair man.
