Chris Culliver arrested.

[RoboticDreams]

It's not quite the same thing. And not just because I never went on the radio and said I hate jellyfish and they are not welcome in the oceans in which I swim.

But again, whether you agree or disagree that his statements SHOULD HAVE made national news, they DID make national news. As such, introducing Culliver based on that is completely fair. It's the thing he is best known for.

Parasites love blood. I give them credit for being what they are.

By the way, isn't it great that the one position on the team who's gonna lose some playing time this year is a CB.

Darrelle Revis where art thou?

There's always the draft!

 

[Jikkle]

Well good thing we have those draft picks.

The reality though is I wasn't expecting Cully to really be much of a factor this season anyways since it seems DBs take two years too get back to form from those injuries anyways.

 

[Crimsoncrew]

2014 is looking more and more like a throw-away season as time goes on.

You're joking, right?

 

[NinerSickness]

There's always the draft!

It's asking a lot to think rookie CB(s) is / are going to make up the difference between this defense and Seattle's defense.

Not to mention Arizona's defense. It's looking pretty nasty too. And the Rams' D isn't exactly the Cowboys.

That post was dripping in sarcasm. I'm not at all happy with what's been going on, as opposed to what our competition has been doing. Idle hands...

 

[Robotech]

Damn, I wish we could've have gotten Alterraun Verner. Cut Cully. He's obviously a few cards short of a deck. We don't need players this dumb. And then the brass knuckles part of this. Holy shit. Obviously, he has rights and due process will play itself out, but that doesn't mean the Niners can't make a business decision to cut him loose now.

I think the idle hands issue has to do with Baalke wanting to go the slow, long-term building route rather than loading up short-term & trying to slam through the tight SB window at all costs:



Obviously the former strategy is a lot safer & helps in the job-security department, but it still pisses me off.

Our defense doesn't have to be as good as Seattle's. Our team has to be. And the better team doesn't always win. Ee were better than Baltimore in 2012 and still lost to them.

It's not like Culliver isn't going to play this season. He'll kick this down the road a ways, probably settle it for misdemeanors, and likely deal with a suspension in 2015 if at all. I don't see how this affects our 2014 season much at all. We still have a slew of high draft picks, and two highly regarded players who will basically be rookies. Our team is extremely strong across the board. Really our only weakness is at CB, where our FO has been pretty good at plugging in talent. It's a little early to be jumping ship.

Well considering they have a much better QB, they could possibly have Percy Harvin healthy, they could easily have a great OL (when it's healthy) and a great running game, that's gonna be really hard to accomplish unless the Niners' defense improves from last year. Significantly.

 

[NinerSickness]

No way! This is not the time to sell; it's the time to buy! Buy low & sell high.

Sign him up to a 4-year deal like it was reported they were trying to do in the first place. Only cheaper!

And without a healthy Bowman.

And without a healthy Bowman.

Wilhoite is much better than advertised.

 

[RoboticDreams]

Wilhoite is much better than advertised.

True, but he's no Bowman. Bowman is a difference maker, Wilhoite is a stop-gap. Not really a comparison.

yep, more importantly than our defense, we all know it is about how well our offense can score TD's?

IMO Culliver IS a factor on our D, and IF he doesn't play even part of the season, does affect those missed games. so too bad for this negative news.

Lol classic

 

[whysies]

I don't think Sick has ever seen Russell Wilson play

Or maybe he's just a really big Bruno Mars fan

 

[bvanthielriceyoung]

Wow. Thank God this happened BEFORE the Niners signed him to a long-term contract (as it was reported the Niners were trying to do). Now he'll come dirt cheap!

Exactly. Agree with everything except the he'll come cheap now(maybe this was said as a joke, hard to tell exactly with just text) I definitely wouldnt sign him and would just say fuck it. Time to move on. He has off field problems/character concerns, an injury history, and quite frankly, just not that good of a player.

 

[bvanthielriceyoung]

oh some what related side note too, has there every been a person who shaves those lines or line into their eyebrows and has not been a piece of shit? Between that and neck tattoos.....
