Nice seeing the Broncos sweat a little bit playing a non-cupcake. Broncos fans around here have been pretty cocky.

great catch

this game should prove that defense in the NFL is dead

romo over 500 yards 5 tds.

manning over 400 with at least 4 td's

losing team scores 48

only 1 int in the game

Romo was the only reason that game was close, defense has far more culpability.

Real culprit is Bill Callahan for sending a RB out with Romo on the last two drives for no reason. He scored 14 points with empty backfield with ZERO pressure. With back in to protect, they sent five and put pressure on Romo. Dumb calls to go away from what was working.

You want a QB who is killing his team, its Schaub performing a hit on the Texans.

The no-audible thing was not really a surprise, but his terrible play is not consistent with previous seasons of work. Its like he thinks its the playoffs.


BTW, the no audible thing probably has an impact on 4th Qtr comebacks. QBs who cannot audible are sometimes hamstrung early in the game. When they get desperate in the 4th, having the QB call his own plays is like springing a new coach into the game plan.

Al Michaels just said that Dashon Goldson was expendable because the 49ers were going to draft Eric Reid. I rewound on the DVR to confirm.

Think about that.

Schaub with 2 int's is god awful. They aren't going to go anywhere with him at QB.

Think about that.

They certainly were in a position to trade up because of the extra picks they had. Of course, Goldson was expendable because he was going to be very expensive to sign. They will have some expensive contracts coming up in the near future (Kaepernick, Aldon Smith) and they can't keep every body. Their reasons for letting Goldson go were probably similar to the reasons the Packers didn't sign Jennings.

Missing my point - The way Al Michaels said it, the 49ers let Goldson go because they knew they were going to get Reid. How could they? Goldson was signed in March, Draft was in April.

Schaub with another int.

He is playing awfully, looks like he has no poise or confidence. He's done like dinner.

To backup DL... He's still on the sidelines with his helmet on, watching the backup play.

Schaub might be broken.

Quick question on the last HOU fumble. Was forward progress stopped, should the play been whistled dead before the strip/fumble?
