Niners - Bengals

[poewelch84]

Same problem the Niners have. Can't remember the last time we made a touchdown from within the red zone.

Week 17 last year they had three TD's in the red zone.

Ford happy with 49ers' win, but expects more from D-line

So do I. The pass rush seemed uncoordinated and scattershot even though they did get a couple of sacks. Seemed like they weren't working as a unit.

Fun fact....I believe the only other time the Bengals and Niners played each other in Week 2 of a season was 1987 - the year Sam Wyche tried to run out the clock on 4th down deep inside his own territory....failed to get it and gave SF the ball on the Bengals 25 yard line with one play left, down 26-20.

Montana to Rice. Extra Point. 27-26.

I think that was the game where they caught Walsh skipping off the field at the end, lol

Just glad you don't have any of those guys anymore. Your current teams seems manageable. lol The 80's team was ridiculous. I couldn't wait for Montana and Rice to retire, and then we had to deal with Young and Owens! Damn it. Just continue to be normal for a little bit!

Not the same owner, not the same results.

Bosa sits out 49ers practice due to right ankle soreness

Bosa again. Geez

He is quite injury prone, why he opted not to play his final year even though he was available for several weeks with the Bucks. He is one hell of a player when healthy, but you will seem to find he is healthy as often as he is dinged up.

How 49ers' defense is changing Jimmy G's sideline habits

Let's not get carried away here: "turnover heavy defense"? Its one game against a turnover machine like Jameis Winston.

Vegas has Cincinnati by 2.5. Surprised, I guess home field?

Home teams usually get 3 points I think.

If they make fewer mistakes this week they should win

Bosa practiced today. He is listed as Questionable. I am not sure exactly what that means anymore because they took away the Probable designation

that is usually the case, the team with fewer mistakes win. the worse mistake by far is turnovers, so no fumbles please on offense nor ST's.

not expecting JG to get big stats, but his first priority is don't throw an INT. If you have to continue throwing shorter, do it. Next, the team needs to cut penalties in half, at least half. Granted penalties is reflection of the quality of your team, but 11 is still too many.

From what I'm hearing, he is supposedly ready to play but teams lie all the time about availability of players. Even if he's not going to play, the 49ers would not say that since the Bengals would then not have to prepare for him.

No, I meant fewer mistakes than they made last week.

Oh ok.

For me they need to play much better than last week, not just 'fewer mistakes'? 11 penalties is way too much, a "fewer' penalties is still way too much.

Just three fewer penalties last week and they win 48 -17

3 and out. Good start

Touchdown. Garopollo to Goodwin
