CARDS AT 49ERS POST GAME THREAD

[I_am_1z]

The only trouble I have with the staff right now is the playcalling on offense and the personnel decisions on who to start. Purcell and Armstead had to wait for injuries before they played. Celek had to wait for Vernon to be traded. Tiller who hasn't been a world beater, has been a sizable upgrade over Devey. Even Blaine Gabbert coming in was quite the difference maker! It just makes me wonder if we're really trying to tank the season... If that's the plan behind closed doors—impossible to know—then I really don't see any reason to get frustrated. KNOWLEDGEABLE fans can see there's hope on this team. What's missing most is a right tackle, center, and an inside linebacker; TWO of the positions we lost during the offseason due to unexpected retirements.

Don't forget pass rusher. Brooks is getting old and will have a big salary. Lemonier is all but a bust, and Eli Harold is unrpoven. I would rank pass rusher as priority No. 1

True and that's another position we lost unexpectedly.

If the pass rush that was on display last week continues, we may not even be on the market for one (Unless Bosa)

Officiating crew from Sunday's game reassigned from coming prime time game. I guess the NFL didn't want such incompetant refs being displayed on a prime time game.

Well, based on Baalke's history, it seems like he always likes to nab a pass rushing OLB at some point in the draft. In 2012 it was Darius Fleming and Cam Johnson, in 2013 it was Lemonier. Neither of those 3 panned out, although Johnson being a 7th rounder wont make me too upset and I believe Fleming was Baalke's annual ACL special . Lemonier is the one I am sour about, although I thought he played well vs Cardinals on Sunday. In 2014 we hit a homerun in the 5th with Aaron Lynch, and this year we took Harold. So based on that, and with Brooks aging along with a big salary, Harold raw, and Lemonier ineffective, time for a top notch pass rusher to replace Aldon Smith.
