I'll have to agree. Rivers needs to break out early in the season with some downfield plays or LT is not gonna see much daylight. Larry Johnson would definitely be my first pick in any fantasy league...the guys a beast.

Agreed on 6-10 being a playoff year.
Oh, how the might have fallen!

Yeah, they fell really hard. Their dynasty ended the moment Steve Young laid unconscious after that blow from Aneas Williams. Jeff Garcia gave us 2 good years, but he clearly wasn't going to take them to the Super Bowl without a lot more help. I really wanted Braylon Edwards or Ronnie Brown since I thought Smith was largely a product of Urban Meyer's system. Me thinks the 49ers don't get back to the top unless there are some drastic changes in ownership and front office. John York seems to concerned with getting "character guys" instead of guys who know football and can play the game. I'm not saying character is not important, but you need talent in order to win. They've had too many first round busts because they chose guys with character over guys with talent.

On the plus side, at least our vision is good enough to enjoy looking at her hooters

Ill take LT, more recieving yards out of the backfield. Plus, Rivers has Gates as a safety route everytime, so you know Rivers wont be awful like Smith was. Smith didnt have anything except Branden Lloyds amazing catches.

Remember Jim Druckenmiller??? haha always a classic name along with a classic bust.

**jmh80** · 07-07-2006, 06:50 PM

Yeah - what Niner fan could forget him.

I was intimately familiar with him being a huge Cane fan - KNEW that was a bad idea....

BUT - we are not worse than the Jets or Giants (or Colts for that matter - Trev Alberts??? At least Druk was #16...)

Rivers should do good. He has LT, Gates, solid and underrated receivers, a killer defense, and a better O-Line. he also has one more year under his belt then Smith.

Breakout Player: Frank Gore, Chris Simms, Cedric Benson, Phillip Rivers.

BTW, I know Alex Smith didn't look good, but how many 21 year old rookie QB's come in and and make a 2-14 franchise into a Super Bowl contender overnight ? They may be even worse this year with the losses of Andre Carter, Ahmed Plummer, and Julian Peterson. They filled those spots with rookies or special teams players for crying out loud. Manny Lawson replacing Andre Carter is the only spot where they seemed to have taken a calculated risk but the others are pretty pathetic. They should have also traded Eric Johnson, he has decent trade value and is now a backup because they drafted Vernon Davis. If they were actually doing their homework they could have traded Johnson and another draft pick for Deuce McAllister or Javon Walker.

hahah I actually typed Drunkenmiller but then looked at it and thought it was drucken, otherwise I know I would have to mention him a lot more. With a name like Drunkenmiller how would you not be a star.

How could I forget about the Ponys

They'll do good in the AFC West for sure. Shannahan seems to have everyone's number in that division. The Chargers are gonna be taking a few steps back with the loss of Brees, the Raiders. . . we'll they're the Raiders

, the Chiefs are your biggest threat but they lack the killer instinct (and talent) on defense and I'm not sold on their receivers. God help the Chiefs if either Johnson or Gonzalez get hurt. Your Ponys shouldn't need more then 11 wins to wrap up the division crown. When they run into Indy or Pitt then the ride may be over.

BTW, what's up with Ashly Lelie ? I think the 49ers and Broncos would benefit each other with a straight trade of Eric Johnson for Ashly Lelie. You guys need a tight end and need a receiver. What do you think about that possibility ?

wildman536 · 07-08-2006, 01:36 PM

yall are crazy!!! Pittsburgh still has the best team in the AFC. ---Tampa all the WAY!!

ironwolf727 · 07-08-2006, 03:29 PM

skins all the way

You can have Lelie. Wants to be a #1 receiver, has the great Rod Smith to learn under, yet doesn't want to earn it, he just wants it given to him. We need a tight end, our receiving core is just fine with the addition of Javon Walker and the much improved Darius Watts.

wildman536 · 07-08-2006, 04:57 PM

all this football talk is depressing me!! LETS GET TO THE KICKOFF!!

oswizzle · 07-08-2006, 05:08 PM

Lelie sucks....he's nothing more then an Average deep threat Wideout.....Eric Johnson is Mr Injury Prone so I dont see the Broncos ****in with him.....Chiefs will own that Divison this year....my Boy Larry Johnson is gonna break ****erson's record this year
