Am I reading cowboyszone.com right? Alex Smith completed ONE single pass downfield to a wide receiver against the stellar Seattle secondary? ONE????

The Niners had barely 200 yards offense and were 1 for 12 on third down.


If we lose to this trash team................wow

They've got some good players, but this is one of the teams we have no business losing to. They may make it a game and some members will have a coronary if we don't win by 17. Harbaugh might not have much of a choice but to tell Alex to just chunk it downtown and hope for the best.

Thanks for all the replies.

The 49ers offense last week struggled and it was expected. Every week we should continue to get better. Luckily for us we have a top 10 defense to help the offense along.

I think this weekend against Dallas Harbaugh is going to open it up a little and be more aggressive. Last week the playcalling was very vanilla, especially in the 2nd half seeing how it was a 3 score game.

I have a feeling my 9ers are going to win this game at home.

Can't wait for tomorrow!

Look for the Dallas STs coverage units to include more starters.

Hopefully, we take away his kickoff return chances.

Wow... The highest passing total week in NFL history for the league as a whole, and Alex Smith throws for 120 yards against the putrid Seahawks...

And some Niners fans think they have a good team and can't wait to play us.

Just wow.

1-0 blinders are more powerful than 0-1 blinders.

Give that team a decent QB and they'll hang with anyone. All it takes is a good game from Smith and they can beat us. Their D is pretty good and they have more then enough weapons on offense to be a headache for anyone specially us with what we're fielding as a secondary this week. Thankfully their QB is Smith or we'd be at serious risk of going 0-2 again this year

Two things:

1. 9ers may get better but it will take years not game to game
2. That feeling you have is gas

5 matchups to watch: 5. Carlos Rogers vs. Miles Austin
Posted on September 17, 2011 by Grant Cohn
Carlos Rogers: 6’0”, 192 lbs., 30 years old.
Miles Austin: 6’2”, 215 lbs., 27 years old.

If Dez Bryant doesn’t play on Sunday, and it doesn’t look like he will, expect Carlos Rogers to cover Miles Austin for the majority of the game. Whether the Cowboys line up Austin out to the left or the right or in the slot, Rogers should follow him.

Kevin Ogletree, who’s never started a game in the NFL, will start in place of Bryant if Bryant can’t go. Tarell Brown should be able to hang with the 6’1” Ogletree just fine, leaving Rogers to handle Austin.

Austin has been a Pro Bowler the last two seasons. Rogers has never been a Pro Bowler. But Rogers thinks Romo has a lot to do with Austin’s high standing in the NFL. “You didn’t hear about (Austin) his first two years,” Rogers explained this past Wednesday. “Romo started getting hot, and boom. He just expanded and blew up.”

If Rogers can hold Austin in check this Sunday, his name will blow up around the league as well.

Matchup advantage: Push

Thoughts?

5 matchups to watch: 4. Donte Whitner vs. Jason Witten
Posted on September 17, 2011 by Grant Cohn
Donte Whitner: 5’10”, 208 lbs., 26 years old.
Jason Witten: 6’6”, 265 lbs., 29 years old.

Right away, the height disparity between these two players stands out. Witten is a full eight inches taller than Whitner. How can Whitner be expected to match up effectively with such a tall target?

Whitner told Eric Branch that he covered the 6’5” Zach Miller one-one-one fifteen times last Sunday, and only allowed Miller to catch one pass for six yards when they were matched up.

But can Whitner take all the credit for shutting down Miller? No. The Niners’ defensive line gets a lot of the credit for giving Tarvaris Jackson very little time to throw. Also, Tarvaris Jackson gets some credit for Miller’s miniscule production, since he’s such a poor quarterback.

Tony Romo is a very good quarterback, and you can bet he will throw Witten’s way more than twice on Sunday. Witten’s been to seven straight Pro Bowls, and he should be the Coyboys’ primary weapon in the passing game against the Niners. Dez Bryant probably won’t play, and Miles Ausin has a sore knee and a tough matchup against Carlos Rogers.

Whitner has his hands full. If he can’t keep up with Witten by himself, the Niners may have to double team Dallas’ big tight end.

Matchup advantage: Cowboys

More.

Thoughts?

The Cowboys have gone against Rogers for years, he doesn't scare us one bit unless he gets safety help Austin will beat him like a rented mule. Rogers on Austin is a match up that favors us.

No idea what the expect from Ogletree some people are very high on him, i'm not. All we've really seen out of him other then preseason is some bubble screens and slants . He is very fast and can get down the field in a hurry

Whitner can't handle Witten, zone doesn't really work against him either he's made a carer out of finding soft spots in zone.

So you think the best TE in the league will not get a reception based on coverage that D. Whitner had on Z. Miller?

Do you know when was last time Witten ended up zero reception in a game?



never

Wait? When did I say that? That's right...never did.

Wait? When did I say that? That's right...never did.

Jason Garrett likes to pass, he's a Norv Turner disciple but he realizes he has a nimble quarterback who can get out of the pocket and his inner quarterback likes to air it out.

However if Dez Bryant is absent expect more conservative game plan, Felix Jones is an injury prone version of Tony Dorsett, when he's healthy he's nearly the same dynamic player, Murray is a rookie that handles screens well, Tashard Choice is a reserve back with talent that appears to be in the coaches dog house because his favor has fallen and playing time accordingly.

Ogeltree is in his "show me" year, he sometimes has been impressive and sometimes a scrub, if he starts he best show something, now's his chance.

Witten is probably a Hall of Fame tight end, before his 30 birthday he will have the most catches in Cowboy history, surpassing Michael Irvin, and very likely have more catches than any other tight end in NFL history, he's on pace.

The offensive line is starting two rookies and one second year guy with two starts under his belt, definitely a raw unit.
