Outside of teams that are just historically bad at coverage (the Raiders), MVS has regressed. I think that it would be hard for anyone to say Geronimo hasn't been a disappointment. Our weapons in the receiving game have been pretty horrendous. Lazard had some sparks, but watching Emmanuel Sanders play for the 49ers makes me pretty sad we didn't make a play for another proven talent.


I think it's obvious that Lazard is clearly better than the other options at WR right now (sans Davante). MVS can only do one thing well, and that's run fast in a straight line. Other than that, he's entirely useless. Kumerow and Allison are basically the same guy -- bottom of the roster WR's that aren't particularly good.

RB was such a glaring need for us a couple of years ago, and thank god Thompson actually hit on both Jones and Williams. Gute needs to do the same thing this offseason with the WR position.

Everyone knew they were going to flex it as of like 2 weeks ago.

Good, now if Aaron Rodgers gets piledrived into the turf with no flag we don't have to listen to Troy Aikman tell us what a great non-call it was. Then accuse the Packers of "taking a shot" at Jimmy G because someone sneezed on him. Aikman was annoying at an all-time level last Sunday.

You wouldn't have had to listen to that anyways. Buck/Aikman weren't going to be calling this game on FOX.

Yeah I luckily got the 2pm to account for this possibility.

Low of 44 still sucks. Stupid SF.

If you don't like Aikman and Buck's [perceived] bias against your [every] team, you should try to listen to Dick Stockton and whatever **** he has next to him not even know who caught the ball on a play or that a timeout was called or something.

For me, Aikman often just goes off on rants and won't let things go. That obsession with the dubious roughing call was an example and that went on for more than the long drive involved. We notice the anti-Packer stuff more, of course, but he does that elsewhere too. Obviously, he knows his stuff, but sometimes he really needs to stop talking - period.

Buck gets annoying fast, especially whenever the temp drops below 50*. That guy must live in Death Valley in his downtime.

Sure people dislike Aikman calling our games (I dont really get it but whatever) but are people actually happy going from Aikman to Collinsworth? Seriously?

South Bay, different climate than San Francisco. Less wind and fog and more variation in temperature. Like 70s during the day and 40s at night around this time of year. SF is actually pretty nice this time of year.

This isn't going Buck/Aikman to Michaels/Collinsworth. This is going Stockton/Schlereth or Myers/Johnston to Michaels/Collinsworth. It's an obvious upgrade, not only in announcers but production quality going from the FOX C or D team to the Sunday Night game.

There is no upgrading to Collinsworth. That's a mythical statement

I don't think Aikman is biased. I just think he isn't very good. He seems to get worse each season.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.
