Game Week Thread (week 16): FALCONS vs. 49ERS

[SY8goat]

Michael Crabtree - WR - 49ers

Michael Crabtree (ankle, wrist) is listed as probable for Week 16.

Crabtree was a full participant in practice all week and hasn't missed any games since returning from his Achilles' injury. He's a low-end WR2 for Monday night's matchup with the Falcons.

Dec 21 - 6:23 PM

I need Crabtree to have a huge game.

10 Rec.
200 yards
2 TD or 4 TD

Looks like Chris Berman pulled rank on Stuart Scott and is out with the boys on the set at Candlestick.

I'm okay with that.....I'm up 70 and if I don't get Crabs tonight I'm $500+ better off.

Under your scenario, that only gets him in the 50s in my league. In fact, if I get beat tonight, we'll be witnessing NFL history and likely the best fantasy game ever.

I've already played Peyton when he had 7TDs (L) and J. Charles when he went 60+ (W) so nothing would surprise me this FFB season.

ESPN is showing some great things right now

Manningham inactive, Patton takes his spot. No big deal. Patton can come up with a zero catch line just as easily as Manningham could.

I had to give Toby a +1 for that one.

Matt Barrows:

Mike Iupati not warming up with practice-squad/reserve o linemen before game. Might be a sign he is playing.

Officially active.

 

[TobyTyler]

Damn, that tackle by Eric Wright on Drew Pearson would have been a horse collar in today's game.

 

[RoboticDreams]

It's so cool watching the "Catch" again. I wish I could have been there.

 

[ChrisPozz]

Atlanta's inactives:

LB Sean Weatherspoon, WR Darius Johnson, RB Josh Vaughan, S Zeke Motta, OL Terren Jones, OL Sean Locklear, DL Travian Robertson.

That's what I was thinking.

 

[TobyTyler]

It still puts a big shit-eating grin on my face when I see that "catch".

 

[RoboticDreams]

My dad is a Cowboy fan so it put's a HUGE smile on my face. I was a little kid but I remember him screaming at Danny White.

I recorded "The Catch" game a while ago. I've also watched a lot of the classic games on NFL Network. I have a question for some of the older posters in here. In watching these old games, I've noticed that the offensive linemen would all drop down in unison before the snap. What was that all about? I don't believe I see that in today's game.

I was an adult, but I sure acted like a kid when Clark caught that. Still to this day I'm not sure I buy Montana's story that he was not trying to throw that ball away. It seemed like Clark came out of nowhere.

I don't either but it helped my dad sleep at night. He could at least tell himself it was luck.

Catch 2 was great to see again. That whole drive was crazy. almost fumble by rice, almost Int by Young, and then a stumble by Young and a laser to TO in traffic who gets hit hard and holds on to the ball for a TD.

It was a fumble by Rice. The refs just didn't call it, and instant replay wasn't back yet.

Ha ha!
