You’re wrong on everything you said .
SF secondary isn’t

you’re wrong on every subjective attempt you made .

Do you watch football ?

SF secondary isn’t a weakness it’s just not as good as Philly or as equal to their LB core.

Chase & Brown - look em up.

Dak doesn’t enough around him talent wise .
You wish I was wrong.

On the Niners weakness: https://www.si.com/nfl/49ers/news/one-weakness-on-the-49ers-defense-that-is-concerning https://www.canalstreetchronicles.c...and-whats-their-biggest-weakness-and-strength

On watching football: Yes, I do. I even saw Dak's picks before he did. :laugh:

On Chase Brown: Glad to see you used punctuation the second go round. ;)

On Dak doesn't have enough talent: He had enough to win Sunday but lost the game for Dallas. All he had to do is not throw picks. Now the narrative is he needs more talent around him. He's had enough talent.
He has played with all pro lines consisting of Martin, Smith and Frederick and still couldn't get it done.
He had Dez Bryant and Witten and a dynamic Zeke his first year. Still couldn't advance past the divisional round.
Heck, the way you all talk, he's going to need Erik Williams, Larry Allen, Travis Frederick Zack Martin and Tyron Smith, Adrian Peterson, Jerry Rice, Randy Moss and Tony Gonzales and then he'll have enough talent to advance this team to the Super Bowl.
Yeah, get him that much talent, and he'll get it done.

The talent argument is as ridiculous as the scenario I proposed.
He doesn't have enough talent. :laugh:

I just don't think this is true. Dak is not one of the best QBs, we had a backup QB for 5 games, yet finished the regular season as a top 5 offense. By what objective measure can you say we were lacking weapons?

  • A 1B gets 1,000 yards for the season, not 1,359 with 9 TD's.
  • Shultz is above average as a TE who just crapped the bed against the 49ers
  • Pollard was dynamite in the run game all season, unfortunately, go injured against 49ers
  • Zeke was a good role-playing no.2 picking up short-yardage over-used all season
  • We had a good 3rd running back we just didn't put on the field in the final game
  • Ferguson is an above-average receiving threat as a no.2, and Hendershot who missed the final game was a viable option
  • TY Hilton showed he was clearly a threat from the moment he arrived, and inexplicably not targeted against the 49ers we had the weapons.
  • Brown proved more than capable as a no.4 receiver this season and was 4/4 targets in the playoffs
  • We had a good (not great) O-line that worked through a lot of adversity
The only challenge Dak faced for most of the year was the decline in Gallup coming off his ACL. It was totally understandable and to be honest, I didn't understand giving him the contract we did or why he retained his role despite playing like *** all season.
Not to mention having a stellar defense is a HUGE weapon for Dak. Many competent QBs could win with a defense like we had this season.

He only had to surpass 13 points (minus HIS picks) to win Sunday. He completely failed.

Pollard got hurt buddy. With ZEke only there is definitely not enough weapons.
Literally, what I wrote in the post you quoted and we basically didn't even give Davis a chance to run the ball instead of Zeke. That's on the play calling.

They actually did try Davis on one play and he either whiffed on the block or missed the handoff. That was it for him.

Could win what exactly? Beat the Niners in a playoff game in SF?

The problem is that the Niners had a better defense. Purdy have EVERY advantage in the game from Oline, to skill players, to defense to coaching to home field advantage. We lost by a TD.

Not such a big deal.

We should look at Arkansas backup RB Felix Jones in the first round.

He could be that “wow player” that puts this team over top.

Member dem daze? Same Jerry garbage, different decade. By two.

Mannix said all this in late August...Dak makes NOBODY better, so I'm not sure what Booger and Chuckles were thinking.
That they have lifetime positions and jerseys to sell.

Yep, in fact not even that because Joseph gifted him 3 points and a free swing in the RedZone. Dak was just so bad that Cooper Rush would have been better and probably would have won us that game.

This is what hapoens when you way overvalue your players. They thought schultz, cd, pollard, zeke, cd, was enough. But it wasnt so they brought in ty.

BEcause of how they use the TE position its just a dumpoff option and not always a real weapon. Zeke is not a weapon. 3 receivers on the team, tokbert, simi, turbin are not weapons and they didnt use hilton much. They thought gallup would be back to his old self and that was a gross miscalculation.

Well, he didn’t actually say that it when it comes down to after Pollard and cd lamb, we have nothing.

Brian baldinger on Dallas ,
CD Lamb was moved around like a 1 - he has stats like a 1 .
He’s not a 1
He’s no chase brown etc
They asked a LOT of him.
He’s a 1B tops - not enough.

After that DALLAS has no weapons after pollard got hurt.

They are in major need of Speed and weapons .

Dak not enough around him .

Horrific early int - he threw that same pick earlier in the year . He didn’t even look just threw it .
Micah Parsons was unbelievable- he blew up their all pro tackle - played the middle v Deebo v kittle - kittle couldn’t block him.
Then played the outside .

But the Dallas D is more Quinn than talent.
If Quinn leaves it’s a disaster .

SF have no weakness anywhere - and Dallas had a legit chance.

SF D zone is unbelievable and completely befuddled Dak.

Tyron Smith handled Bosa - he’s not done .

Hosts wondered about keeping Smith and letting Steele leave - save $10 million .

Philly best secondary in football

SF best LB’s

Philly best in trenches

To restate he really really emphasized that losing Dan Quinn is a disaster
Yes, losing Cooper for a 5th round pick was a front office and on field disaster.

This is pretty common knowledge for rational football fans. RG3 just tweeted a similar post about the importance of having multiple weapons in todays NfL and how the remaining teams are stacked.

Lamb is a 1 for me though.

Yeah, just how Dak made CeeDee a 1,100+ yards receiver during CeeDee's 2nd year and a 1,300+ yards receiver and Pro Bowler in CeeDee's 3rd year, just like Dak made Michael Gallup an 1,100+ yard receiver and Pro Bowler in Gallup's 2nd year.

Just be quiet! SMH :facepalm:

They didn't lose him, they got rid of him.. there's a difference. Only one team was willing to take on the contract. The bigger disaster would've been keeping him.

How would keeping him be a disaster ?
He had his warts, but was a good player.
We had Lamb and a bunch of jags at WR.
It's not like we used Coopers salary to sign any big name free agents....

Zero targets for Ferguson . Gallup targets were either incomplete or intercepted . I hear people say when Davis was in briefly didn’t go well . When was he handed the ball or thrown a swing pass ?

I think it’s on the OC that when your Gainwell type back in Pollard is injured your Boston Scott off the bench in Davis gets zero touches.

I don’t think it’s accurate that after Lamb & Pollard the weapons in Dallas is threat level zero .
