49ers-Packers one-liners

Posted by Josh Alper on November 23, 2009 12:51 PM ET

The 49ers dug themselves a 23-3 halftime hole and couldn't do enough in the final 30 minutes to avoid a 30-24 loss to the Packers.

Mark Purdy of the San Jose Mercury News points to 49ers QB Alex Smith's five yards passing in the first half as part of his argument that he isn't the team's answer at quarterback.

49ers WR Michael Crabtree caught his first NFL touchdown and said that the team should go to the spread offense full-time.

49ers coach Mike Singletary challenged his defensive backs during the week leading up to Sunday's game, but they failed to answer the bell.

The 49ers haven't found a consistent replacement for Allen Rossum on kick returns.

Serious injuries to LB Aaron Kampman and CB Al Harris helped the Packers blow a big portion of their halftime lead.

Packers QB Aaron Rodgers threw for 274 yards and two touchdowns in the first half, and finished with 344 total passing yards.

DT B.J. Raji's first NFL sack was part of a stout effort by the Packers defensive line.

Packers TE Jermichael Finley made a successful return to the lineup with seven catches, including three on third downs.

Special teams have been a problem for the Packers this season, but they came through with a good performance on Sunday.

No. Having Frank Gore on the team is Alex Smith's strength. 🙂

Well it's simpler and easier to understand which helps Smith, Crabtree, their TE Davis and maybe more....

This isn't college. And like Wade said, having Gore is his main strength. If he can actually stay healthy.

It's nice that Crabtree loves it, but you don't do that when you're a smashmouth team. It's like saying that we should become a running team. Abandon the pass, mostly. Go with a 30% pass, 70% run offense.

This isn't college... but if it works then keep doing it... how many teams have guys that can match up on Crabtree and Davis while stopping a crafty Vet like Bruce? ... it's not the easiest thing to do.

I say they should do it if the running game fails... but they should stay with running game because it works and controls the clock...

So your saying don't cater to one guy like Crabtree but yet suppose to cater to Gore even though the spread is better for your qb, te and your wrs. The spread offense doesn't mean you pass the ball all the time just means you spread your players out. The Pats run the spread pretty much and have been running the ball. It might actually help Gore.

Just Imagine this for the next 6-9 years. What a ride it will be 🙂 (PS, Zero should charge for this)
