Suh gets ejected in a close game, will most likely serve at least a 1 game suspension. The collapse of the Detroit Lions starts now.

Well 49ers lost their 2nd game of the season. Hard to feel too bad about this loss though. The Ravens are a very good team, possibly the best in the AFC. The deck was pretty stacked against the 49ers. Had to travel to the East coast on a short week. Would love to see these teams meet in a Superbowl. Congrats to John on winning this HarBowl. Looks like the 49ers are headed for a 2 seed. Not much chance of the Packers losing 3 games to give up the 1 seed. Pretty confident the 49ers can win out to finish 14-2. Looking forward to the playoffs.

Oh I'm definitely disappointed. Just trying to move past it, and look forward to the rest of the season. Chilo Rachel sucks. The O line looked terrible after Snyder went out. It sucks that our offense couldn't put up more than 6 points. The Ravens are really good at home, and this is the 1st road loss for the 49ers this season. As much as I hated the loss, I still feel really good about this season.
Oh another thing to keep in mind, is that Bruce Miller was out due to his concussion from Sunday. Miller has been so much better than Moran Norris. Looking forward to getting Miller back, and hope Snyder can be ready to go before the next game.

The poor baby couldn't take the fact that he got absolutely destroyed on that play.
Somebody needs to stop the Lions on Thanksgiving tradition though. I don't want to watch any Lions' games ever again.
I think it has a lot to do with the Coach. Like how Schwartz lost his cool on the handshake? Suh lost his cool after a critical stop, and while didn't cost his team the game, helped thrust the dagger into the gut of their confidence.
I just see the Lions as a team that isn't mentally prepared for the final stretch.

A ticky tacky chop block call took away a TD that could have changed the game.
There were a lot of bad calls that game.

Agreed on that call. That one really hurt.

Hard to put up points with 9 sacks. Those are drive killers. I thought the 9'ers would have one of the better lines in the league after spending high picks on Staley, Rachal, Davis and Iupati. Looks like they'll need to draft O-line again this year. That, and their secondary is still way too vulnerable. Smith IS a game manager. He can't win games like other top QB's. If Kaepernick isn't the answer for next season, SF better sign a decent FA QB and give up this Smith experiment. I know there were no better alternatives given the strike and the dregs of this past FA crop. But with an improving team and with Harbaugh's reputation, there will bound to be a few who want to play for SF next season.
I wondered how long it would take someone to crawl out and do this. I just figured it would be Hobo.
They're still 9-2.
I'm still waiting for the "I told you so" posts.

Tebow: 5-1 as a starter with just two turnovers in those games, both in the Lions loss. Love this kid. At Minnesota next week. Tough one because it's on the road indoors but the Denver defense has been playing amazing and hopefully will confuse the hell out of the rookie Ponder.

I'm actually finding this offense pretty entertaining. It's hilarious how folks know exactly what the Broncos are going to run, and yet they still manage to get positive yards. It's hilarious to watch the critics eat it. It's awesome watching teams jackpot around to only be jimmered by Tebow late in the 4th/OT.
I've never seen a QB in the NFL run the option and deliver blows to typically overconfident safeties/linebackers.
True, it might not score as many points as Aaron Rogers launching the ball all over the place. True, this offense might be blown up by a dominate run stopping team (like the Ravens or 49ers. I wonder how many hits Tebow could absorb before breaking against Ray Lewis). But this is incredible to watch. I personally never thought an NFL QB could run and survive against the NFL's defenses.
Major props for Denver completely revamping their offense. In fact, I doubt many pro guys even know how to coach this offense! And what's funny, is that they're still learning this offense (coaches and players). The playcalling could be greatly expanded, to run more now passes, WR screens, trick plays, triple options, fly sweeps, bootlegs, and quick slants. Props for them installing this offense. However, I do wish they'd expand this thing. Go all out! If they did that, they actually might present a pretty good offense.
All of you must bow before Tebow. If KOC had a brain, he'd hurry up and sign this kid. Everything he touches turns to gold. If the Jazz had him running the point, we'd be champs for sure. He might not have great vision or incredible passing, but he'd kick *** (especially Kobe's) and he'd somehow will us to the Ws that AND1 and duron could never get us.
Either that, or we could just fire Corbin and hire Urban. Everything he touches turns to gold too...

If Tebow ever learns to become a better passer and Bronco's continue to play suprisingly good D, Denver should easily make the playoffs.
Well the Steelers won on the road so I can't complain. 8-3 and now host the Bungles at home next week. IF Polomalu indeed got another concussion (And it looks like it) that hurts as he will not play next week. The guy needs to quit dropping his head and diving for legs... a knee to the noggin is no fun.

Tebow > Bear Grylls.
