Turkey Day game

Did you guys see Borland with the soccer move flipping the ball up into his hands from behind his back?

 

Interesting to see a ILB actually square up in the gap.

Yes

The only thing keeping Kapernick from being a great quarterback is......the fact that he can't throw a football accurately. Is that a problem?

Not if you're VaJayJay. 

Kaepernick looks the part of a top notch NFL QB right up to the point where he throws the ball.

Borland would look really good in a Packer uniform I bet.

Green and Gold Lego piece

 

Big stop.

It really sucks seeing Borland dominate with the Niners after they've had WIllis/Bowman's play for years and we're here in year 9 of AJ Hawk.

I imagine the Bears and Vikings feel the same way about Rodgers.

Though it's always fun watching Kaep continue to regress and get worse and worse as a QB

I know next to nothing about being an NFL QB, but it sure seems to me that Kaepernick doesn't really go through progressions. I can't believe he doesn't throw more picks, because it seems to me he's always locked onto his first read.

Kaepernick is pulling an RGIII and Cam Newton

One year wonder

Chris Borland is no one year wonder.  Damn the LB rich Niners just get richer.   We get AJ and BJ!!!

I think RGIII is in his own category for being a one year wonder.

 

There's still hope for the other two.

Really?  

The irony is the QB that everyone said was too short to play is 10 times better than the stud athletes like RGIII and Cam and Kaep.  

Money ball in the NFL who would have guessed

(Half-time piece on Wilson)

 

I hate Seattle.

 

I hate Pete Carroll.

 

I'm thrilled for Russell Wilson that he won a Super Bowl---he's just good people.

Borland is better than Hawk. I get that. 

 

But Borland couldn't scrub Bowmans jock. Seattle is rolling up yards tonight. Bowman is a Seattle killer. Does anyone here think Willis would rather have Borland next to him ahead of Bowman? 

 

And there's probably 7 ILBs in the 2015 draft that are better than Borland. That's Ted knowing his board. The best rookie LB in SF is Lynch. That's a poor mans Clay Matthews. 

 

 

 

 

Really? You think TT wouldn't have drafted Borland because he knows there's 7 ILBs better in the next draft? Seems a bit far fetched to me.

 

Hell, if he would have drafted Borland, and he became a starter for us this year, I'd argue that ILB would still be a need going into 2015. Of course this is all hindsight, but if he could have traded up into the third round and gotten this guy instead of Khyri Thornton, that would have been great.

 

Then again, maybe he would have traded away the pick he used to get Linsley in that hypothetical trade. 

Well, the Loins managed to pull out a big win today; but at least I got to see Collie Kaeperdink stink it up.

Stupid speculation. TT drafts Borland & we don't have Davante. If he trades up in the 3rd we don't have Linsley.

WR & C are WAY higher value positions than ILB.

Stooopid!!

I think SF jumped GB for Borland. I think Ted might have taken Borland at his spot. I think Ted stood down and didn't bite on the next ILB on the board knowing the 2015 ILBS class and went best player on his board. 

 

Borland isn't the next great MLB. He just isn't. 

 

 

Anyone wearing number 50 that can make a tackle looks like a dream from heaven

Yep, pretty much agree with all of that. I don't know if SF moved up specifically to get ahead of GB, but I think TT would have taken Borland if he fell to us in the 3rd.

 

He may not be the next great MLB, but he's a hell of a lot better than what we have now. Can't have HOF like talent at every position.

Or maybe we don't have Carl Bradford.

 

Like you said though...it's all just a bunch of worthless speculation.

Borland is better at MLB than Matthews? Think about it

I was referring to our true ILBs. Maybe having a guy like Borland means there's less need to move Clay there to slow down the freeway that is the middle of our defense.

Borland is better than what GB has today. But Denzel Perryman or Eric Kendriks is better than Borland next year and so is making the playoffs this year as a 1 or 2 seed with a chance to improve with Denzel Perryman or Eric Kkendricks next year. 

 

The benefit of picking AR can't ever be underestimated. It's served Ted well. 

I still wish we woulda taken Ogletree over Datone Jones

Lacy steamrolling Georgia LBs and DBs at Alabama did Ogletree in 

Datone is still great but Alec woulda been cool too...no matter, I feel we are headed to the Big Dance!!

We are getting closer to brass tacks. Seattle - Green Bay. 

Tough to say that players who haven't played a down in the NFL are better than a guy that is proving it week after week - playing behind maybe the best LBs in football (Willis and Bowman)

By the way, I am not sure the two players mentioned were better than Borland last season at Wisconsin either.

We all know the Packers could use better ILBs and personally I could care less where they come from.   I just think they are so close defensively and will come up short eventually because they don't have a guy like Borland and that is frustrating.   Hopefully TT can address it once and for all next season.

I wish they took Clay Matthews in stead of Raji in 2009.

 

Damn ewe ROTTT!!!!!

Romo looked terrible.  So bad that I wonder if there is some health issue affecting his throws.  He was absolutely awful.

Almost like he has broken bones in his back

Doesn't LambeauSouth live in the Dallas area and also have back problems? Maybe they use the same chiropractor and LS can get some inside info on Romo?

Or maybe no one gives two ****s?

I wouldn't count Arizona out just yet nor the Eagles. What about Detroit?

 

1 game at a time...focus on the Patriots

I think Dallas may have been a legitimate threat that seems to be no more, thanks to an injured QB that looked to me like he threw like a QB with a noodle for an arm.
