Starting QBs - Brady, Keenum, Bortles, Foles.

I know most of you morons on here think football is a one-on-one sport and QB is the only position that matters but clearly that is not the case. Defense still is very important. Always has been that way and always will be. You can have the GOAT QB but w a trash defense the odds of winning the SB are slim to none.

Even the Pats have the #5 defense as far as ppg and pretty much all their SB winning teams had a top defense. Anyone who minimizes the importance of a good defense doesn't understand football.

That Jax-pit defensive struggle was for the ages.

Are you agreeing with me or what? Because that's exactly the point I'm trying to make.

Up by 7. Bortles throws a underthrown bomb to his wr, that the wr had to stop, and turn around just to grab it and then gets immediately tackled. Complete 50:50 ball that was 40 yards. Bortles then throws a check down, to yeldon, and yeldon breaks it for a 45 yard gain. One shit underthrown ball that cp said was Bortles, having a killer instinct. Then his check down to yeldon, cp claimed was a thing of beauty because he went through his progressions and then checked it down, he’s a master cp said. 2 shit plays for half his yardage of the game. Also his one td pass came from a play action pass, that fooled the entire defense because fournette was making the d his bitch all day long, so it was a wide open td pass.

There was not one thing “clutch” about Bortles” performance, nor anything about his 80 yard passing performance the week before that. I’f you can’t see that, then you are just as reeruned as the cp poster who after Big Ben lateraled in the same game past the line of scrimmage posts in the game day thread “ there should be a flag, he was past the line of scrimmage”

Up 7 in the 4th quarter Alex doesn't even attempt that 40 yard bomb and he isn't likely to hit Yeldon in stride with such a beautiful pass.

Smith's career playoffs: 61%, QB rating 97, 2.1 TD's per game, 0.3 INT's per game, 278 yards per game

Flacco's career playoffs: 56%, QB rating 89, 1.6 TD's per game, .66 INT's per game, 215 yards per game



Facts. Not Fiction.

Individual stats can suck my fat cock, ****tard.

Alex Smith can't put up points in the playoffs.

What's why he's a ****ING LOSER.

And he's going to prove it next season on whatever team he goes to.

[TigeRRUppeRRcut]

Pretty sure you spent all last season harping about how Smith couldn't score TD's or put up 4000 yards.

Funny how the narrative changes when he achieves it and gets the TOP QB rating in the league, most deep ball TD's, etc.

You lost the bet and you're butt hurt. Please keep embarrassing yourself, I beg you.

After a brilliant season (13-3), the 49ers historic defense could not get the job done when it counted the most - Read the 2011/2012 S.F. 49ers Defense Review at the bottom of the post:

2011/2012 NFC Championship NY Giants vs. SF 49ers

The 2011 NFL 49ers defense is one of the toughest defenses I have ever seen.

Vic Fangio’s defense consisted of 'four Pro Bowlers (Aldon Smith, Patrick Willis, Dashon Goldson, and Carlos Rogers) and three All-Pros (Willis, Smith, and NaVorro Bowman).' As a result, the unit played to historic heights tying and breaking records not only in franchise history but also NFL history.

2011/2012 NFC Championship Giants vs. 49ers is ranked as one of the top 25 NFL games of all time. In addition, Eli Manning is ranked as one of the toughest quarterbacks in the NFL.

Facing one of the toughest defenses, Eli was hit 20, knocked down 12, sacked 6, somehow avoiding injury.

A great funny article saved: QB Lead New York Giants to Superbowl XLVI

In the waning minutes of regulation in the NFC Championship game between the Giants and the 49ers, Eli Manning surfaced from a freshly made crater on the surface of Candlestick field.

Credit the power-bombing exploits of one Aldon Smith, rookie defensive end out of Missouri, for the cringe-worthy replay.

But it was what Manning experienced as he plunged through the basal layers of our planet's surface that really matters.

It was then that Eli Manning would have his most significant moment as an NFL quarterback. Yes, I am saying that Eli Manning came face-to-face with God.

What seemed like seconds to us and the tens of thousands at Candlestick must have stretched out like years to Manning.

Perhaps there were cascading bright lights in a million different colors. Maybe he was greeted by God, Sammy Davis, Jr. and Jim Morrison in a vast, windless desert. Perhaps God closely resembles Ed Hochuli and delved into a 45-minute diatribe on quality gating systems and why Heaven's gates are in fact, pearly.

Only Eli knows.

As Eli stood after returning from his extra-dimensional journey, many of us wondered, not so subtly:

How the #$&^% is that guy still alive?!?


To say Eli looked bad is like saying that Billy Cundiff could probably botch a train wreck. What was once a uniform now sat in glorious disarray on Eli's wobbly, confused visage. It's a wonder that he still retained enough of his motor functions to signal for a timeout.

Upon making it back to the sideline to embrace a frantic Tom Coughlin, the two engaged in a conversation that I imagine went something like this:

Coughlin: Eli! My God! Are you OK??

Eli: Coach... I saw God. He. Was. Glorious.

Coughlin: You... you WHAT? Eli, get it together. We need to finish out this drive. Can you go?

Eli: I saw the Punic Wars, Charlemagne's coronation, Woodstock... (babbles on incomprehensibly).

Coughlin: (yells for the trainer) Eli, I'm pulling the plug, we're checking you for concus...

Eli: No, God said we would win! I'm staying in!

Coughlin: OK, ok, you can stay in. Just manage the clock and get us in field-goal range.

Eli: Hey, Coach...

Coughlin: What, Eli?

Eli: My hair was nicer than his.

Whether by divine intervention or solid game management, Eli Manning was able to lead the G-men to an overtime victory over the the 49ers.

Let's be clear about one thing: Eli Manning is a tough guy. You have to be to be able to quarterback in the NFC East where guys like Brian Orakpo, DeMarcus Ware and Ryan Kerrigan make a living off inflicting indescribable amounts of pain on opposing players.

Aldon Smith is no different. What he did to Eli was just downright bullish and I know I had a hard time watching Eli stumble around like a drunken vagrant as a direct result of Smith's eight-button combo.

No doubt, Eli's near-death experience was the difference in that game, as close to the wire as it was. A lesser man wouldn't have remained on the field and would have folded up like a cheap beach chair.

Not Eli Manning.

With a second wind that no doubt came from the flapping of angel's wings, Eli managed to stay poised and delivered several text book passes down field to a host of talented New York wide receivers.

For the Giants and their fans, it's Superbowl XLVI. For Eli Manning, it's providence.

Same thing, really.

Credit the 49ers for giving the Giants a run for their money, especially the 49ers defense who tormented Eli in the backfield all night long. As disruptive as they were, however, it still was not enough to keep Eli Manning from leading the Giants to an overtime victory and a trip to Indianapolis.

Patriots fans, take note. It takes a lot more than a 290-pound defensive end executing a thunderous pile-drive to stop the force that is Eli Manning. Be warned.

The power of Eli compels you.

You're right, I did. Why? Because his lack of passing success held the team back. And it proved to be our undoing in the postseason.

Funny how the narrative changes when he achieves it and gets the TOP QB rating in the league, most deep ball TD's, etc.

The narrative never changed you butt ****ING moron. It was always "be good enough to win playoff games."

Smith put up pretty numbers and got this team to 9-7, completely ****ing failing in the second half of that playoff game to live up to the big sexy stats you stroked off to all year.

So what ****ing good are they?

They're as useless as the 4,000 yards and 28 TDs Elvis Grbac put up in 2000.

We've lived this shit before. You still don't get it.

But at least we're finally getting what we want:

A CHIEFS FOOTBALL TEAM NOT QUARTERBACKED BY YOUR ****ING CUCK

So, for what will surely not be the last time: PLEASE **** OFF.

[Dylan]

I am sure members do not remember the 2011/2012 NFC Championship NY Giants vs. SF 49ers.

In the first quarter, first drive, second play, Alex Smith threw a beautiful 73-yard TD pass to Vernon Davis, TD. Smith is capable of throwing a long ball, however, most of the time it stops from there.

Here are Smith's passing stats for the NFC Championship game vs. NY Giants in 2012.

San Francisco Passing
A. Smith, 12-26, 196 YDS, 2 TD, 0 INT, 3-18 SACKS

San Francisco Rushing
F. Gore, 16 CAR, 74 YDS, 0 TD
A. Smith, 6 CAR, 42 YDS, 0 TD
K. Hunter, 4 CAR, 31 YDS, 0 TD
B. Dixon, 2 CAR, 3 YDS, 0 TD

TEAM 28 CAR, 150 YDS, 0 TD


San Francisco Receiving
V. Davis, 3 REC, 112 YDS, 2 TD
F.Gore, 6 REC, 45 YDS, 0 TD
D. Walker, 2 REC, 36 YDS, 0 TD
M. Crabtree, 1 REC, 3 YDS, 0 TD

TEAM 12 REC, 196 YDS, 2 TD

San Francisco Fumbles 4


I am glad to see the Chiefs drafted a mobile gunslinger quarterback. They are fun to watch.

Impressive to see Mahomes take command and move the ball down the field for his first career winning drive. Not an easy task for a rookie quarterback.

[chiefzilla1501]

The titans had the 28th ranked yards defense and the 17th ranked points defense.

What does it say when 4 of the 7 teams that played those top 10 defenses outscored the Chiefs? And that's being generous considering those 7 teams included Foles. Defense may win championships but it's the offenses that are winning playoff games so far for the most part. Other than buffalo and Foles' eagles, the Chiefs are the only team not to get 21+ points at least once. Which is stunning considering the Chiefs and pats are the only 2 teams to not face a single top 10 defense.

[chiefzilla1501]

The Chiefs have 4 playoff appearances.
In all 4 losses, our offense completely shit their pants in the second half. In our only win, we didn't have to show up in the 2nd half
In 3 of those losses, we had a maddeningly bad 4th quarter and closing drive (some would argue 4, but I'm not counting the colts loss).

Theres a common theme. The Chiefs are 0 for 4 when it comes to second halves and 4th quarters in the playoffs. You aren't beating anybody with that.

Keenum, Brees, bortles, big Ben all had outstanding 4th quarters. That was the X Factor in those playoff games. That was the X Factor for big Ben, Eli, Flacco, Russell Wilson when they made their playoff runs. That is the X Factor we have not had with Alex Smith in the playoffs to date.

Lol at the Alex Smith haters. First it is 'team wins games not QBs' now it is 'QBs win and lose games by themselves.'

You guys contradict yourselves in your own arguments. Idiots.
