Come on DB. If Crabtree is healthy, Crabtree -Boldin-Davis is as good as 90% of the league. Hell, Boldin-Davis with check downs to Gore or Hunter is still better than most. It is better than Nelson-Jones-Boykin, Smith-Lafell-Olsen, Dobson-Thompkins-Vereen or Tate-Baldwin-Miller (Good God, why doesn’t Seattle get a receiver).[/quote]
Also, Gore is done. Each year the last few years people keep saying, “Oh, this is it for Gore, he’s definitely on the way down.” I think this is the first year that those people will actually be right. He just looked slow and without the same burst after contact that he’s had the last couple years, and truth be told, everyone who has been saying that the Niners had a great run game hadn’t been watching the last 5-6 games they played. Gore didn’t do much at all.
Hunter hasn’t looked anything like his old self since his Achilles injury last year. They’re better off shitcanning him and using LaMichael James and Anthony Dixon as their 3rd and 4th backs since they can both play special teams well.
Marcus Lattimore is the make-or-break guy for the Niners next year. I expect there to be some significant upgrades across the board on offense next year, but if they can keep Gore fresh by spelling him with a legit 5 YPC type of back in Lattimore, they’re going to be a nightmare for defenses next year. One of the things that really hampered their offense this year is the fact that they simply did not run the ball efficiently at all this year, outside of Kaepernick. There were long stretches where they couldn’t get anything going on the ground at all early in the game and just abandoned the whole thing entirely. They’d do that for two games and then when they finally decided, hey we better stick with the run longer and get better at it earlier, they’d have some fucking creampuff like Jacksonville on the schedule, go apeshit for like 185 total rushing yards and everyone would think they had a dominant running game. But they weren’t dominant against anyone of any real stature.[/quote]
I agree with you about Gore, he is going down but I still think he is in the upper half of the league as far as starting backs. The biggest problem with Gore is he has always seemed to be a back that required a few carries to get in the groove and was actually better between his 10th and 20th carry than his first 10, and now that he is getting a little age on him his body is letting him down during what used to be his sweet spot.
And to Davis, with the state of TE’s in the league this year, it is fairly easy to make the case that he was a top 5 TE. You’ve got Graham and Thomas ahead of him and after that you could argue that he should be 3rd. I cant really think of one that would be ahead of him. [/quote]
The problem with Gore is that he is a MORON. He can run like hell, but he is stupid as mule shit. I will be excited to watch Lattimore play even though he is a 49er. He was amazing with the Gamecocks, I have no doubt he will excel in the NFL. The frightening thing is now SF will have a dominant running back who is not a moron. [/quote]
Obviously you don’t know anything about Frank Gore other than what his Wonderlic score 10 years ago was. Gore is probably the smartest non-QB in the division, in terms of football intelligence. I have NEVER heard anyone say that a play that Gore made was stupid. But I have heard MANY, MANY people who have played with and against him say that he is the smartest football player they’ve ever played with/against.
Nice try at trolling, though. Unfortunately, you made yourself look like a bitter Falcons fan once again.
