    I can watch now! 3 points?!?!

    Congrats Hawks fans. You beat my 49ers fair and square. Stopped us cold like no other team has. No excuses. My 49ers were beat in just about every phase of the game. Good luck in the playoffs. I do not think the 49ers will see you again until next season rolls around.

    Aros’ Fearless Prediction Thread (@ 9ers)

    Nope. I did not say that. I said "Sam Darnold will see Sam Things." As in ghosts. He does tend to react that way in the really big games. BUT, his last big game against the Rams, Sam shook off the ghosts and had one of the best finishes I've ever witnessed. That does make me a tad worried. He...

    Aros’ Fearless Prediction Thread (@ 9ers)

    49ers: 42 Seahawks: 38 Difference: Sam Darnold will see "Sam Things" and cough up a pick or two, one of which will be returned for a TD. The 49ers have played a lot of very good defenses down the stretch, but it has not stopped Brock Purdy. Both the offensive line and the running game are...

    Aros’ Fearless Prediction Thread (vs 49ers)

    Outplayed all day? I would not say that. Not at all. Your defense shut the offense down pretty much all game long. That last TD was a stroke of luck. I really believed, and still believe, that the Seahawks would have torched the rebuilt defense. Which has been rebuilt with youth. We had rookies...

    49ers taking over Lumen

    I would not say it's the 49er house, but I will say the 49ers travel well. So will the Seahawks, when they become consistent winners again. I don't think the 49ers looked all that great to be brutally honest. They were good enough, just good enough, to beat Seattle. But just barely. I don't...

    49ers taking over Lumen

    Interesting. Because there is ad on the top of the 49ers Webzone that says (and I quote): "49ers vs Seahawks tickets available!" Now, clicking on that link does not take me directly to a site that is actually selling tickets to the game this weekend. It's a season-ticket kind of website. The...

    Cooper Kupp signed

    If he can stay healthy, it's a great move. The key question is: Can Cooper stay healthy. If he can, he's poised to have a great year with Darnold tossing that rock.

    Sam Darnold To Sign With The Seahawks

    As a 49er fan, I feel sick about this. I think it's a good move by the Seahawks. Geno Smith was never going to take your team anywhere. You had seen the best he had to offer. The 49er defense collapsed last season, yet it still took a last second luck play from Geno to beat a pretty bad SF team...

    Mike and his Run D

    Been there. Know that feeling. Know it all too well. Been rooting for the 49ers for a very long time. I have lived through "the bad years." Seattle isn't bad. They're not great. Not yet. They could be. But they're not quite there yet. Hang in there. Season is young. I know this hurts. But...

    Question for the Geno apologists

    To be honest? Brutally honest? I don't think Geno is the answer either. I think he's just good enough to get the Seahawks beat. Great QB's, however, do not grow on trees. Replacing a winner like Wilson at QB, who single-handedly made my life miserable for darn near a full decade, is not easy...

    Mike and his Run D

    If Seattle had done that, put more guys in the box as you mention, Purdy would have sliced your defense up like a Thanksgiving turkey. Period. End of story. Purdy has been doing that since he entered the starting lineup. Blitz the guy and he will positively torch you. That said? The 49ers...

    Question for the Geno apologists

    I know the general feeling is to throw Geno under the bus for this one, but he's not the reason that the Seahawks lost. The Seahawks lost because they allowed the 49ers to march up and down the field and score points at a frightening pace. What else is Geno going to do? Hand the ball off to...

    Does Defense still win championships?

    Good point. Not just beat them, but beat them like a drum and physically beat up on the Huskies.

    Carroll Out As Head Coach

    You may be correct about the rivalry-speak statement. You are also correct with the thinking that, as a 49er fan, I vastly enjoyed the way Kyle Shanahan just stuck it to the Seahawks over the past two seasons. 5-0. Smells great, baby. At the same time, AROS, I think you would be the first to...
