Revenge is a Dish Best Served GOLD: The Official 2012 SF 49ers Season Thread

We're 6-2 and he's not getting the ball because the opportunities ain't there, but when they are he can still make pays, I feel like down the stretch he's gonna show up a lot more

Are you high?

The opportunities HAVE been there.

Brehs we need to lock up Goldson. Wasn't it PFT or Grant Cohn that said he was the weakest link last year?

A lot of folks even on here said he was over-rated

I always said DG is a must have player on this team, he's a top 5 at his position and I wish we paid him last year because his markets only going up and he fukking wanted to be here long term

watching this offensive run line block is like watching poetry in motion

goldson is playing better this year but Im still skeptical on his coverage. hes a deadly hitter but hes not the most intuitive guy when it comes to coverage

on other hand I dont see many young safeties besides earl thomas who are good in coverage so itll be tough to find one like that...

im for resigning him, but not if it means no bowman. id take 'vorro over dashon long term

Where were you the last 3 weeks?

Oh it`ll come, it`ll be about how he missed that one pass out of 19 or how he took too many sacks.

After 8 gakes, dudes 4th in the league in QB rating at 102.1.

I`m just happy as fukk they stopped the dumb in and out shyt with Kaepernick. I still feel that had a lot to do with the fukkery of the NYG debacle this year

I don't get why are some of you so defensive about Alex. He is what he is and we will win most games if he doesn't makes mistakes but god forbid someone talks about his limitations

Brehs we need to lock up Goldson. Wasn't it PFT or Grant Cohn that said he was the weakest link last year?

Navorro is the priority. Then we'll probably have to choose between Hawk and Crabs.

Thing is after last year, and obvious improved play this year, why do we highlight these limitations?

Why are they seen as limitations still? It's almost like people are dead set on the thought that he can't possibly get better and improve.

yeah but in fairness it seems like you are dead set on the thought that his obvious flaws aren't worth discussing. Most likely Alex is gonna be the player who determines how far we go so his play is going to be the most scrutinized. Basically the reason his limitations are highlighted is because they very well could be the cause for our season ending before February. Nah meeeeean?

That said, Alex is my QB. Dont mean Im not gonna go ape shyt the next time he has a horrible game complete with half-assed scrambles that amount to nothing and Sanchez-esque 5 yard checkdowns on 3rd & 15.

Does one average year earn him the right to be criticized less? Its not like we're here complaining about Patrick Willis or nitpicking on some elite player. Its Alex fukking Smith.

It's the point that why are they "limitations"?

You close the book on the player by calling them limitations. Flaws are one thing, he definitely has flaws, but limitations is silly.

Make the dude sound like he's a handicapped guy out there.

And to me there is no need to discuss what he was doing in 2006 because what does that have to do with now? You can't erase them from the book, but ever since Harbuagh's been here he has been a completely different player

Actually, I think his overall coverage has improved considerably this year, he deserves some credit for why we have some of the best pass coverage in the L. He's learned to pick his spots to ballhawk.
