Most of those were a flag happy referee group, and the younger players trying to make plays...using bad technique. They'll learn, and there will be an up-in-arms if the referees throw as many flags when the opening whistles blow for real.

I'm talking about last year.

I'm talking about last year.

Last year, I thought the corners were pretty solid. Outside of Kiffin deciding to try out Carr as a shut down corner against Garcon and Megatron and Scandrick getting isolated on Jeffrey in cover 3, they were pretty effective. Even Claiborne did well against the Giants and others when he wasn't leaving the field for the training room.

Most of the issues were Carter getting handled deep, Heath not being able to compete on completions in his zone, and Lawrence and Sims being complete unable to understand much less execute their assignments.

QBs had the middle of the field wide open from game 5 when Sims started playing regularly all they way though to the last two weeks of the season when Wilber had emerged and Holloman finally got healthy.

The defense of the last week against Philly, which while not great was able to get off the field at a decent rate, is what i use as the starting point for my expectations for the defense this year. They weren't good enough to overcome turnovers, but at least you had 7 guys in coverage who at least understood their assignments.

Probably, but Goodell will still let this play out. It will take some time before any suspensions are handed out. The Rice incident occurred in February and it took months before the league suspended him.

Wonder if the 49ers will be proactive and hand out there own discipline prior to game 1? Hoping so.

Another plus for us when we play them ... their minds won't be right.
Man, if we don't win this game, I'm going to be highly upset at some Cowboys.

You and me both. I'll be doing some slapping in the lockeroom after the game if we manage to lose. JK.

Everything is looking promising. We just need to deliver on Sunday!!

I'm surprised his teammates didn't drag him out of there before the police arrived.

When I was younger, my buddies would always drag me out of bars after I got into a fight and before the cops arrived.

I never will condone a grown man, especially a guy who's damn near 300 lbs and over 6ft tall, putting his hands on a woman... This disgusts me and the fact that she's with child makes me even angrier.

There is something to be said about learning to walk away, try it once.....wow just walking away really works wonders.

Hard to believe he is just as much of a lame duck HC as Garrett.

harbaugh might be a lame duck but his future as a head coach is 100 times better then garrett. he would have no problem getting another job with any nfl team that being said garrett would not even be able to get a college job next year if jones does not resign him next year. also maybe the reason why harbaugh has not resigned with niners is maybe he is waiting for a top college job again. I would hope that jerry jones would be able to get him as our head coach next year. I think that harbaugh is the kind of coach that could turn this team in contender even with the lack of talent on defense.
