A Glimpse of Hope From 20 years Ago

Jan 4, 1987

49ers vs. NYG NFC divisional playoffs

Joe Montana- 8 for 15 no tds 2 ints qb rating of 34.2

-- 49ers lose 49-3

Jan 9, 1988

Minnesota Vikings vs. 49ers NFC divisional playoffs

Joe Montana- 12 for 26 no tds 1 int qb rating of 42.0

--Montana benched at halftime 49ers lose 24-36

So what did the 49ers do after 1988? They could of just sat Joe for future HOF Steve Young and gone on. But no, they stuck with Joe and went on to win 2 consecutive superbowls in 1989 and 1990.

I am not trying to compare Jake to Joe, but if those days can happen to Joe, they can happen to anyone.

Keep your head up Jake.

Seriously for the people saying that we can't blame this loss on just one person please come out of your state of denial. This loss was Jake's fault, plain and simple. You can't win a game with SIX turnovers from one player. He didn't give the team a chance to win, which he admitted, so most of the blame goes on Jake.

In most losses it is difficult to pick out one person who is largely at fault for the loss, but in this game it is completely obvious. For our other four losses this season you can't pick out one person who single-handedly lost us the game, but that is not the case this time. Six turnovers from one player = game over.

Jake Delhomme isn't Joe Montana. Comparing them is just silly. We need the running game to return and the defense to be restructured to be champions next season.

thank you for being a realist. lets just face the facts folks...we got our arses handed to us in our own building...BY THE F'N CARDINALS! are you kidding me AHHHHH!

got someone else we forget about

Brett Favre and the Green Bay Packers went into the divisional round against the Rams. Favre threw SIX interceptions, three of which were returned for touchdowns. It happens to the best of quarterbacks.

it wasent our year Plain and simple.

Folks just need to get over it and reflect on the good stuff from 08.

I read a post from you this week saying the exact opposite.

-- Not trying to call you out, but the point is a lot of people thought it was our year(including you) and thats why last night is a tad bit hard to get over.

    • Fans are fed up with this organization's endless string of failures. And, while Morgan's less than a year into his current position, everything he's done is barreling down the same path shat out by his predecessor. If we're just pointing out this alarming lack of discrepancy between the performances of two GMs, it's really not hating. He's just proving to not be a good hire. And, hey, it's alright, because whoever Tepper hires next will, at best, only suck a little bit less. I don't mind people who are optimistic and hope Morgan turns out to be better than he's been thus far. That'd be great. None of us are rooting for him to fail. However, the embarrassing pattern of decisions persists. And it's not a good look.
    • You have to view everything that was done in 2024 through the ‘eliminate excuses for Bryce Young’ lens IMO. It only makes sense that way.     If you allow for that, you will see that Diontae fulfilled his purpose.  
    • The Panthers' beat writer called the Johnson trade return "a warm bottle of RC Cola." If you're quick to discount every bit of news that disagrees with your view, maybe your view is the problem. Morgan deals himself a bad hand and he deserves every bit of criticism for it. Fitterer was the worst GM ever, but Morgan is a very similar brand of awful. Certainly when it comes to trades since 2021, Morgan's body of work makes him at best, only one of the worst negotiators in the history of North American professional sports. That's simply pointing out the numerous shortcomings he's put on display. If I point at a guy who shot someone and say "he murdered a guy," I'm not hating on him -- I'm pointing out what he did. If Morgan wants to not be labeled an incompetent clown who makes 31 other franchises better, simply stop being an incompetent clown who makes 31 other franchises better. Or, wait until Tepper makes him the fall guy after Evero.
