Are you witnessing the swagger being displayed by the Niners today?

Swagger means nothing without talent. The Niners have it, we don't.

8-8 teams are in no position to talk.

This is true for the most part but...if we had a few "smarter" players(coaches)or players (head coach)that did smarter things we would have been 11-5.

It really was that close and that really was why.

Maybe I'm missing something but RKG doesn't have anything to do with swagger or yapping on the field.

The fact that people can't seem to understand that is mind boggling to me. The 49ers have talent and guys who, for the most part, don't appear to be the wrong kind of guys off the field either.


but their QB does wear headphones and his hat backwards when interviewed. Imagine the uproar if Romo did that?

I really really abhor the terms 'swagger'/'swag'. There's absolutely no correlation with having a bunch of trashtalkers and a winning football team; you could win or lose either way. The similarity I see between the top 4 teams (yes, this includes the broncos and patriots) is the unwavering confidence those teams have in what they are doing. Specifically, with regards to seattle and SF, they have confidence oozing at every position on the field. Part of that comes with just great players, part of it comes with having the confidence in their HC and gameplan to succeed.

These teams have a coaching braintrust that knows exactly what it takes to beat a specific team; they are always the ruthless aggressors. They're never caught on their heels, and they always go for the throat.

Now, part of that may manifest itself in trying to intimidate their opponents i.e. trashtalking and I'm totally fine with that. It's the defeatist attitude and the total lack of self confidence this cowboy team and its coaching staff has that I'm not okay with. There isn't even a pulse to win.

Seems the four team left are all reflective of their HC's personality. They are teams that have been molded by their coaches, coaches that know what in the hell they are doing and are allowed to do it. The Cowboys on the other hand, are not allowed to be molded by a coach, they are molded by an owner who thinks he is a coach and they reflect that. They have the same personality as JJ, it doesn't matter about what happens on the field, as long as they look pretty doing it and the fans keep paying.

agreed

our HC is less than average and our team is average
so, in a sense, they are overachieving :)

Maybe RKG just means you suck.

lol...I guess that could mean that. I don't know.

I'm guessing that guys like Darryl Johnston, Darren Woodson, Jay, Aikman, and Smith were all RKG people from the ninties teams. I'd assume that guys like Witten, Smith, Ware, Lee, Romo, are all the RKG type of people he's talking about and I personally don't think any of those guys suck.

*Shrugs* To each their own.
