| Shaun "King of the" Hill Leads the 49ers to Victory | | Shaun Hill in relief of Trent Dilfer, who was in relief of Alex Smith looked good for a third string QB with very limited playing time. The important thing is Hill took care of the ball and when you look at him you see a QB. In the postgame interview, he carried himself like a confident veteran QB.Let's see how he does the final two games of the season. | |
| | 49ers Forced to Start Shaun Hill At QB | | The 49ers, already without Alex Smith, may be without Trent Dilfer for their next game, because of a concussion suffered by Dilfer in the last game. Shaun Hill a veteran QB with little experience will get the nod if Dilfer can't go.He can't do any worse. The offense has been pathetic this year. | |

| Alex Smitih Vs. Mike Nolan Trouble Brewing | | Alex Smith is reportedly upset with Coach Mike Nolan for suggesting that Smith is using his shoulder injury, which will now end his season, as a reason for his poor performance. The guys in the locker room are now questioning Smith's toughness.This has been a dismal year for Alex Smith and the 49ers offense.Lets hope after surgery he will resemble a top draft pick. | |
| | From 2-0 to O No The Small Rise & Big Fall of the SF 49ers | | I'm a San Francisco 49ers fan, and was almost swept up in the hype at the beginning of the season.We jumped out to 2-0 and sat atop the NFC West, and then... the season continued, but unfortunately the wins did not. I can't even take comfort in knowing we'll get a high draft pick, because we traded that to he Patriots.Well, things could be worse I could be a Dolphins fan. | |
|
| What Do 49ers Have to Do To Turn It Around | | There has been talk that the 49ers are looking for a GM something they don't currently have. I guess Nolan sort of is, but they need someone who can focus on just that.I'm not sure about Alex Smith, I hoped he would have looked better and more sure by now. It doesn't help they had to change offensive coordinators and he has different receivers each year. I hope the rest of the season they let him play and he shows some improvement. They need to use Vernon Davis more now that he's healthy.We spent a lot of money in the offseason and that should equal to more then 3 wins. | |
| | Is it Time for the 49ers to Give Up on Alex Smith? | | I'm a 49ers fan and I wanted to believe in Alex Smith, but to say he's been a disappointment is an understatement.I watch for signs that he'll turn it around, but as of now I haven't seen it. It's clear he misses Norv Turner, my hope is San Diego will fire Turner and he'll come back home and be the 49ers offensive cordinator. | |
|
| Who should the 49ers hire as their offensive coordinator? | | Should Mike Nolan hire someone from within like wide receivers coach Jerry Sullivan or should he tap a resource outside of the organization? It will be hard for Nolan to get someone from outside the organization because of how late in the offseason it is, but if he can either bring in someone who has had success outside and runs a similar offense, then that should be the choice. I like Sullivan as the coordinator now, cause he's familiar with the system and the personnel that the team has. | |

| | NFL Predictions: The Return of The Raiders | | There is a changing of the guard in the NFL in 2009. Some of the perennial contenders will fall short and some of the also rans and patsies will start to find their way.The biggest change will be the San Francisco 49ers coached by Hall of Famer Mike Singletary. Singletary is being the same edge to coaching that he did as middle linebacker for the Super Bowl Champion 1985 Chicago Bears. We predict they will win the FNC west division at 12 and 4. Arizona will finish 9 and 7 and out of the playoffs. The venerable Kurt Warner will lead a heroic battle but they will fall short.
The NFC East will be a slugfest. The Giants, The Eagles, the Cowboys and Redskins will almost battle to a draw. Surprise guess who will win, the Redskins at 9 and 7 tied but mathematically ahead of the Giants. This could change if the Eagles have to turnto Michael Vick if McNabbs injury to his ribs does not heal properly. Michael Vick is a game changer who now has a chip on his shoulders.The Oakland Raiders will make a big change and make the playoffs this year. Jamarkus Russell is becoming a NFL quarterback and leader and they have always had the talent.It will be good to see the Silver and black... | |
