Buzzkill Edition

Posted on January 10, 2019 by Skeebers

We’re a week and a half into the offseason, and no 49er player has yet been arrested. Super Bowl here we come! There seems to be a ground swell of optimism forming for the 2019 season, unlike any season in,…

Buccaneers 27, 49ers 9

Posted on November 26, 2018 by Skeebers

The 49ers responded to HC Kyle Shanahan‘s BYE week exhortations and threats by laying a turd Sunday in Tampa Bay. There were some bright spots littered within the fecal display. Rookie WR Dante Pettis got some playing time and caught 4 passes…

Packers 33, 49ers 30

Posted on October 16, 2018 by Skeebers

The 49ers redeemed themselves as a legitimate NFL entity before a national audience Monday night in Green Bay, even though the game oozed away from them in the final four minutes. Fans who enjoy good defense saw nothing much of…

Vikings 24, 49ers 16

Posted on September 9, 2018 by Skeebers

Jimmy Garoppolo is human after all. His NFL unbeaten record came to a crashing halt Sunday in Minnesota, as the Vikings handed Jimmy his first taste of professional defeat after seven consecutive wins. Minnesota QB Kirk Cousins played the kind…

And Away We Go

Posted on August 6, 2018 by Skeebers

So, Thursday night, 49ers against the Cowboys. Two franchises in search of their former glory. Best guess is that neither team will be reaching the Super Bowl this year, but one or both might make the playoffs. Or neither. The…

Bills 45, 49ers 16

Posted on October 17, 2016 by Skeebers

Noooooope! Neeeeeeeeeeext! The 49ers’ washed up, overpaid backup QB led the team to a 45-16 walloping in Buffalo Sunday, completing 45% of his passes, getting sacked three times, fumbling once, producing the lowest point total of the year, and generally…

And the Least Shall Be Last

Posted on October 6, 2016 by Skeebers

The 49ers and Cardinals meet tonight in a battle for the basement in the NFC West. That the Niners are engaged in this sort of tawdry affair is no surprise, but Arizona has been a surprise disappointment thus far in…

Cowboys 24, 49ers 17

Posted on October 3, 2016 by Skeebers

For one shining quarter, the Chip Kelly offense lived up to its hype. The 49ers roared out to a 14-0 lead, scoring their second TD one minute into the second quarter. From there on out, it was Cowboys 24 and…

Seahawks 37, 49ers 18

Posted on September 26, 2016 by Skeebers

The Seahawks hadn’t scored a touchdown in their first two games of the season, but it only took three plays and 43 seconds to remedy that ailment against the inept 49ers Sunday in Seattle. They added three more, tossed in…

Texans 24, 49ers 13

Posted on August 15, 2016 by Skeebers

The San Francisco 49ers trampled the Houston Texans in the first half of Sunday night’s exhibition game in Santa Clara, but two costly fumbles — one on the Houston two yard line that prevented a score and one Houston returned…

Let the Games Begin

Posted on August 9, 2016 by Skeebers

Less than a week until we get our first look at the 2016 49ers. Hopefully, it won’t dissuade us from continuing to watch them as the season unfolds. There hasn’t been any viewing competition in the Bay Area for the…

Lowered Expectorations

Posted on July 26, 2016 by Skeebers

As we prepare to absorb another season of 49er football, it’s good to keep in mind that big, red, rectangle area at the 50 yard line that became known last year as the “Red Hole.” Those are the very expensive…

Up the Down Staircase

Posted on June 27, 2016 by Skeebers

The 49ers currently have 39 players on the squad that were selected from the 2013 – 2016 drafts. NaVorro Bowman is the only guy left from the 2010 draft. Nobody left from 2008, 2009, and 2012. Only Colin Kaepernick, Daniel…

Long Odds

Posted on June 5, 2016 by Skeebers

Your faithful scribe has been offline for a couple of weeks. In my absence, the 49ers have apparently been flying under the radar also, content to remain inconspicuous while the Warriors, Sharks, and Giants capture the attention of the Bay…

2016 Draft

Posted on April 30, 2016 by Skeebers

GM Trent Baalke departed from form on Thursday’s first round by actually drafting players the 49ers need, instead of his usual BPA blather. Zounds! That was in the first round. Two guys (DeForest Buckner, Joshua Garnett) who must be starters…
