Come on Shaz, get with the hate program! Hee hee ...
9ers are a division rival, they are now the gold standard for the division and looked upon as one of the top teams in the NFL. Our guys need to see cracks in the foundation.
I would give both QBs another season before deeming them the truth. The interception yesterday by Kaep was a hiccup, but he seemed to have kept his cool pretty well. And I am not sure whether a TD took 2 to 3 plays or 18 makes a big difference. Shows more that you can make the big play consistently. Sure, if you score 31 and have milked most of the clock, maybe Brady cannot do the 28 pt comeback but who would turn down the scores?
I like our guy, seems the 9ers like theirs. Also looks like Harbaugh navigated a potential landmine with his decision to go to Kaep. Just makes his fans that much more confident in his leadership.

Seahawks are cocky after putting up 50 against the Cardinals and Bills.
49ers defense isn't kidding around. Wilson needs to have the game of his life to beat the niners.
And oh, its not like your last game against the rams is a walk in the park either. They will be looking to knock you out of the playoffs. So are we

Wilson leads the entire league in total QBR since week 6. Yep that's right, he has a better qbr than Brady, Manning, and Rodgers.
You'll never hear me touting QBR (such a contrived stat mess).
Its about wins and losses. If Kap throws for 150 and wins, I don't care.-

I agree with you there but it think it is a stretch to say Kaep is winning you games. He is helping but your defense is still the shining star.
Whereas for the Hawks, excluding the Cards game, Wilson has been taking over games lately. Our defense has actually let him down in two of our losses. He won the Chicago game pretty much by himself. He completely took over the game yesterday.-

He doesn't scare me as he once did. That sounds odd considering how he played last night, but, its my gut on him. We'll see...
So you are finally listening to the sense I have been making? Good.
Kaep is a sham. His success is predicated on max protect with two targets to choose between. He will pull it off for a while, there are some good weapons there, but his game is built on the same strong arm punchers chance Cutler has, and his physical skills are miles ahead of his comprehension.
I think time will expose some diva in the young man too.
I doubt it about the diva thing. He's one of those Youth Group attending Christian fanatics, hell bent on trying to live like Jesus.-

The beautiful part of it is this:
Every week, Russell has anewgame of his life. He has improved every.single.week. Every week! Of course, a time will come when hr DOESN'T get better the next week, but until I see it, I will continue to be confident that no matter how good he looked last week, next week is gonna be even better!- Dismas

You don't even want to know what Wilson would be doing to opposing defenses if he had the best O-line in the NFL to stand behind. It'd certainly be a lot more than what Tattoo McSleeves has done thus far.

Oh come on. The Niners Oline is not the best in the league. Probably the best at run blocking but definitely not at pass blocking. They are like one of the worst at sacks allowed and holding calls.
If Kap outperforms RW this week, will you give credit where credit is due? I will if RW outperforms Kap. Actually, I am pretty excited that these two guys get to play each other twice a year for the foreseeable future. Should really help the budding rivalry-

I will.
What is you definition of "outperforms"?
How are we going to measure it?
Here's an idea.... let's add the traditional QB Passer rating and QBR together and then divide by 2. Both stats have their shortcomings but let's use both as a measuring stick in this game.
Since the Passer Rating has a max. of 158.3 and QBR has a max. of 100, we need to normalize one to the other in order to give equal credit to each rating.
Therefore, I suggest that we normalize the QBR to the Passer Rating by multiplying the QBR by 1.583 and adding that total to the Passer Rating before we divide by 2 to get the (normalized) average.
Whichever QB ends up with the higher number will be jointly recognized as the QB that outperformed the other.

I honestly don't believe that will be a problem for the 49ers. They made a successful adjustment on the snap for the end of the NE game. Things like this rarely repeat immediately because they focus on it in practice. It may come up again after the shame wears off though.- 49fansince70

I actually hope it's wet & rainy for our game. I want to see how both QBs react. Will DangeRuss still be cool, calm, and collected, with no fumbles; or will he cough a couple up? Can Kaepernick get his slick hands under control, or have another large lot of fumbles in the rain?
I imagine Niners fans wouldn't mind seeing that answered, too.

They're both as dangerous as I expected. It should be fun seeing these two go head to head as they evolve and grow. The NFC Best will be just that because of these two guys. Instead having a pissing contest, both fanbases should be excited to see these young guys battle for the division year after year, no offense to Sam Bradford(well maybe a little).-

I agree. The 49ers O-Line is not all that good at protecting the QB. It is why I laugh a those on other boards who say " their QB has so much time" Its far from true. The 49ers had a very tough time against the Giants and Seahawks because of Alex. Kaepernick changes everything.

So here's the numbers...
Russell's numbers for tonight were 115.3 Passer Rating and 97.6 QBR. His normalized averge for this game is 134.9.
And Kaep's normalized average for tonight was a dismal 41.8. Russell outperformed Kaep by 93.1 points. (Kaep's Passer Rating was 39.6 and his QBR rating was 27.8.)
Russell Wilson is officially and now jointly recognized by both Hawks and 9-ers fans (well, it's at least NorCal) as the QB that outperformed the other today.Superbowl XLVIII Champions..."Can't keep everyone."-

Sorry I haven't been on sooner, Christmas and all. RW definitely looked good and Kap had a bad game for sure. That place was rocking that the Hawks took it to the Niners. Kudos to them. I look forward to the many years of a great rivalry. Obviously, playing at the Clink in primetime is something I hope doesn't happen too often, lol.
Good luck in the playoffs. I do expect the Niners to win this week so any rematch in playoffs will be at the Stick (and NFC Championship as pretty much only possibility).
But, I wanted to make sure I came on here to take my lumps, the Niners got their ***es kicked, and on national TV no less. RW looks like the real deal, he is calm.
Congratulations, and now we get to see how the Hawks and RW do on the road in the playoffs. When is the last road playoff win the Hawks have had? (had to end with a backhanded compliment
)-
