    Terrble throw by Stafford. One of the few 1-on-1s for Megatron down the field and you throw it out of bounds. Let him have a chance to make a play. CJ has like 4 inches on his DB.

    Stafford has been throwing some ugly ass balls today in general. He still has a lot of room to grow.

    EDIT: Damn Harbaugh letting Smith throw now. Damn miss Ginn right there.

    Is all the credit for the niners success going to the Defense and none to harbaugh?

    As I recall, Harbaugh is getting a ton of love, as he should. Nobody in their right minds though the 49ers would be where they are at today. And we all knew they have a pretty good defense.

    I don't agree with benching Grossman...even if he has 6 int. He has been your starting Qb and helping you lead to a good start this season. By benching him, you **** with his confidence for next week for a guy you didn't have confidence in from the start. Let him play through it. Unless of course, this is a perfect opportunity to Suck For Luck which seems like was their primary goal by even having these QB's on your roster...

    Umm...He's been beyond god awful. And this game is still salvageable for the Redskins. Grossman doesn't have a great track record for you to give him a long leash, after making so many mistakes vs a mediocre defense (so far this year).

    And it's not like he's been great this year.

    Shanahan knows he has to win or prove they have the potential this year. And he's not playing around. If I was him, I pull Grossman already.

    Rex Grossman was our backup QB at one point, LULZ.

    Some fat guy with a nice one handed pick on Newton.

    Is he? I admit i haven't watched a full game outside of the Texans this year, but when i watch Nfl Network, espn, etc. I never hear him mentioned other than praise for their beastly D.

    I want to sex Willis.

    I remember back when the Texans had their first season. I was still a Niner fan as i had been from my early childhood, but all my friends forced me to choose only 1 team that i could truly root for. I gave in to the hometown as i knew i could at least watch them live, watch them every weekend since i couldn't afford to get all the games. Does that make me a p***y fan? How sad after all these ****ty years and more expected ****ty years, they start their season better than the Texans ever have. :(

    When you have Beck as your second option, i'd rather just stick it out with what you've had while winning so far this year. This Eagles entire team has been underachieving big time obviously so i would see no reason to panic when you are losing to them.

    Trust me, Harbaugh is getting a lot of love, and he should. All the radio shows here in Cali give him props when they talk about the 49ers. I know a lot of 49ers fans and they know Harbaugh has changed the culture there. He's going to be a great coach.

    The 49ers still have a great fanbase here in Socal where I'm from. When they were winning in the mid-90s, you can see every student wear a Young/Rice jersey to school. I rocked my Irvin jersey though :p

    But Alex Smith just threw another high pass again. Does he expect his receiver to be Megatron?


    You are aware that most thought Beck would start initially during the pre-season right. Neither actually separated themselves during the preseason games. I think Shanahan chose Grossman b/c he had more experience. But neither guys have a track record where you give them a "long leash" for them to fall back on. Believe it or not, the REdskins fanbase wants to win now.

    Grossman a bad first half a few games back, but he came back in the 2nd half. However, he sucked all day today.

    Lions in the redzone. Megatron watch. Needs a TD to continue his TD pace.

    EDIT: that's a complete catch by Burleson no? 2 feet down with the ball before going out of bounds.

    Lions screwed by that stupid ****ing "process of completing the catch" rule.

    What did you call me out on?

    Anyways, great that the refs overturned that. Sucks CJ missed another opportunity to get his TD though.

    Cam Newton is finally making a lot of rookie mistakes. The Panthers always seem to fall apart late. Sucks though, but this team has potential.

    Indy is going to be 0-6. Manning should just stay out completely.

    Great ending in NY right now b/t Giants v. Buffalo.

    Why didn't the Redskins go for a 2 point conversion?

    They can tie with a TD and an extra point.

    You need to read up on Rex Grossman's history a bit. If Shanahan wants to completely lose the respect of all his players, he should keep Bad Rex in the game no matter how pathetic he is.
