Colts V. 49ers

[SpursFanFirst]

Rough start to this game!

-Injury less than :20 into the game
-sun is is bright, the players can't see the ball.
-there have been 2 or 3 fumbles recovered

[kamikazi_player]

LOL niners

[symple19]

Yeah, Joe Staley going down is a killer for the Niners...Their line is already weak and can't afford for him to be out long

[symple19]

Frank Gore Baby!

[symple19]

If the Niners have any semblance of a passing game then Frank can actually be effective. Great run!

curious, but what's your story behind being both a Cowboys fan and a Colts fan?

[SpursFanFirst]

curious, but what's your story behind being both a Cowboys fan and a Colts fan?

I was raised in TX (San Antonio), so I grew up a Cowboys fan. That's also where my love of the Spurs comes from.

Now, I'm living in Indy. I've been here 7 years.
Living here, it's tough not to get caught up in the Colts.

[symple19]

Niners are going to have to eat some clock or it's just a matter of time before Peyton gets it going

[SpursFanFirst]

another player down. good grief

[symple19]

Niners have problems with screens. Great way to attack a fast defense that over-pursues

[SpursFanFirst]

Colts are close now!

[symple19]

another player down. good grief

yeah, let's hope we don't see any more of that

Garcon is back in, good

[SpursFanFirst]

For those who may be curious, Baltimore leads the Broncos 3-0

[SpursFanFirst]

ouch Reggie...so close

[symple19]

man, great TD saving play by Spencer

[symple19]

Good job by the Niner D to force the FG...Now the Niner offense needs to string together some first downs

[SpursFanFirst]

man, great TD saving play by Spencer

definitely.

Not a bad start for the 9ers

[dirk4mvp]

Peyton is not on, and Addai sucks so much. Put Brown in brah.

[SpursFanFirst]

are you a 9er fan, symple?

[IronMexican]

Peyton is not on, and Addai sucks so much. Put Brown in brah.

Addai's a beast.

[SpursFanFirst]

nice play by Silva

[dirk4mvp]

Addai's a beast.

He's better than any Raider rb, so at least there's that.

[SpursFanFirst]

Addai's a beast.

Not so much this season, unfortunately.

[symple19]

still no Staley....Man, I hope he's not injured badly.

[symple19]

are you a 9er fan, symple?

Big time

[SpursFanFirst]

still no Staley....Man, I hope he's not injured badly.

no kidding.

[SpursFanFirst]

wooooo! sanders! :clap

[symple19]

Smith is making good reads and getting through his progressions well. Be interesting to see who he likes to throw to...

Never mind, I just jinxed him.

Bob Sanders at 50% is better than almost any other DB at 110%

Dammit!

[SpursFanFirst]

The giants are down 16-0. they've been exposed. :(
There goes my Manning/Manning SB

[SpursFanFirst]

Is it my imagination, or is Manning overshooting this game?

[symple19]

it's fun listening/watching Peyton and his antics at the line.

All week the niners have been talking about how Manning always (or most of the time) snaps the ball at around the same time in the play clock. They're going to try to move around and disguise their defense until he's about to snap it, and then get into their formation in order to try to confuse Peyton a bit.

Look for the Niners to blitz a lot all day too

[symple19]

Great, now that Smith threw an int, Jimmy Raye (niner OC) isn't going to throw it as much

[symple19]

3 and out...just a matter of time before the dam breaks

[symple19]

Nice D!

Now let's go offense!!!!!!!

He may snap the ball at the same time, but the real confusion for other teams comes with his play call.
He goes out with 3 options, reads the defense, and then changes his calls. He does this all the time.

[symple19]

another fumble...do they butter the balls up in Indy? lol

[symple19]

I know, it's been a major focus for the niners. They're trying to flip the script on him and not pay attention to his histrionics and instead make him worry about them. Doing a good job so far.

I'm a big Peyton fan. He's the best in football, IMHO

[LnGrrrR]

Really rooting for the 49ers today...

[symple19]

aaaaaaaaarghhh, needed that first.

that's a BS call

[symple19]

Jimmy Raye pisses me off sometimes. When you run up the middle on 2/20, you're giving up on the series

[symple19]

Niner punter is saving them so far.

Defense really came to play, but you just can't keep going 3/out and expect Manning and co not to break it open at some point.

[symple19]

You know what sucks? Me having to watch the Raider game this afternoon since they're on the road so it won't be blacked out...Otherwise I'd be watching the Viking/Pack game...yuck

[SpursFanFirst]

another fumble...do they butter the balls up in Indy? lol

;) maybe.

[symple19]

Niners are playing well in the secondary... Not letting Peyton get much over the top.

Sweet, a sack!!

Props to the Colt line for only giving up 3 all year. Says a lot about Peyton getting the ball out as well

[SpursFanFirst]

You know what sucks? Me having to watch the Raider game this afternoon since they're on the road so it won't be blacked out...Otherwise I'd be watching the Viking/Pack game...yuck

Obviously, we get the other games blacked out here as well.
Yes, I'd watch the Colts anyway, BUT...it would at least, be nice to be able to flip back and forth and keep an eye on other games.

[SpursFanFirst]

This game is turning out much better than I thought it would be.

[SpursFanFirst]

arnez battle is on the 9ers?

[symple19]

Obviously, we get the other games blacked out here as well.
Yes, I'd watch the Colts anyway, BUT...it would at least, be nice to be able to flip back and forth and keep an eye on other games.

it's worse here in the Bay area because there are two teams. The Raiders get blacked out at home cuz they never sell out, so if they were playing the Chargers at home then I would see the Packers game. Niners always sell out, so their games are always on.(which is great, of course) NFL makes sure the two teams play at different times. (raiders are the late game today)

I'll just find a stream to watch the Vikes/Pack game

[symple19]

arnez battle is on the 9ers?

yep, and has been for years...excellent special teams player

[SpursFanFirst]

yep, and has been for years...excellent special teams player

I didn't know he was there. I enjoyed watching him play in college -Former Notre Dame player.

[symple19]

Pat Willis baby!

[symple19]

I didn't know he was there. I enjoyed watching him play in college -Former Notre Dame player.

he was very good in college.

With the Niners he's made some circus catches, but his route running has always left something to be desired. It's the reason why he hasn't been able to break into the starting lineup.

But you'll hear his name often on spec teams. He's very good in kick coverage, and is a smart player

[symple19]

I keep beating this drum, but the Niners need to score some more and run some clock. Just a matter of time...just a matter of time

[SpursFanFirst]

ouch. I can't look!

[SpursFanFirst]

This game is wearing me out...get to the half, stat!

[symple19]

Smith is very comfortable in the shotgun...

[SpursFanFirst]

Peyton is going to "open a can" at the half. After all, he can't continue to break records if they keep playing like this! lol

[symple19]

NICE!!!!!!!

Needed that, should put them in FG range.

[symple19]

Maybe a TD?

plenty of time

[symple19]

Peyton is going to "open a can" at the half. After all, he can't continue to break records if they keep playing like this! lol

I keep thinking that as well

[SpursFanFirst]

ugh. OK. with that, I need to get ready for work.
I'll be back for the 2nd half...or at least part of it.

[symple19]

Vernon Davis!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[symple19]

lol, 33 seconds is too long to give Peyton

[SpursFanFirst]

I'm back. How many times has your team scored now? lol

[symple19]

I'm back. How many times has your team scored now? lol

never be enough against the Colts man...Peyton drove it down with 33 secs left to end the half...he's too good

[SpursFanFirst]

Oh man! I thought for sure that was going to be int!

[SpursFanFirst]

never be enough against the Colts man...Peyton drove it down with 33 secs left to end the half...he's too good

I see the fg now. I didn't notice that before.

[symple19]

Now Nate Clements is out....this is really getting costly for the Niners. Two of their best players...

[SpursFanFirst]

haha I was wondering who was saying that

[symple19]

dammit, what happened to Nate, I missed it

[SpursFanFirst]

Peyton must've gone Popovich at the half. Sweeeet!

[SpursFanFirst]

dang it! that's overthrown ball number what for manning today?

[symple19]

gotta keep hitting Peyton, try to throw him off his rhythm

[symple19]

dang it! that's overthrown ball number what for manning today?

been a lot, for sure

3 sacks!

[SpursFanFirst]

man alive! That's the 3rd sack today...that's more than he's had all season!

[symple19]

Niners are definitely playing with fire

Stover is on.

[SpursFanFirst]

stover is making me nervous with those kicks.

If we're going to win this game, we're, apparently, gonna have to do it with fgs.

[symple19]

Peyton must've gone Popovich at the half. Sweeeet!

announcers were saying that he has the chalkboard in the locker room at halftime in order to make adjustments. Amazing that he is given that authority/responsibility. Dude is smart

[symple19]

Niners need to run more shotgun for smith, even run out of it some in order to keep the Colts D honest.

But I'm guessing more, "3 yards and a cloud of dust" from Jimmy Raye

[SpursFanFirst]

announcers were saying that he has the chalkboard in the locker room at halftime in order to make adjustments. Amazing that he is given that authority/responsibility. Dude is smart

Oh yeah...and he makes all of his own calls as well. Tom Moore is just his "arm candy." :lol

[symple19]

That movie Avatar looks sick (they just showed the preview during commercials)

[symple19]

Tom Moore is just his "arm candy." :lol

:lol Peyton will end up being a coach for sure

[SpursFanFirst]

Bronco/Ravens update: baltimore 16, broncos 7

[symple19]

Frank is doing well in the open field...need to get him in space more often

[SpursFanFirst]

:lol Peyton will end up being a coach for sure

I'd love to see that!
If he does end up coaching, I would love to see him here in Indy.

[SpursFanFirst]

get out!!!! Yay! We did something. woooooooo

[symple19]

OMG --- WTF --- Not a fumble

[SpursFanFirst]

replay please

[symple19]

I'd love to see that!
If he does end up coaching, I would love to see him here in Indy.

my guess is there in Indy or in New Orleans where he's from... He'd probably be an OC first though

[symple19]

replay please

he looked like he was down in the replay...but is it conclusive?

[symple19]

Not good...Rookie mistake by Crab not to tuck the ball. Good call by the refs

[SpursFanFirst]

my guess is there in Indy or in New Orleans where he's from... He'd probably be an OC first though

I can't imagine Indy not throwing everything they have to keep him.
Obviously, he is much beloved here, and he has the work ethic to back it up.
I understand the NO tie, but hopefully,

DAMN IT, PEYTON!!!!

he'll be loyal to Indy.

[symple19]

wow, looked like it might have been interference

[SpursFanFirst]

and yeah, I was waiting for a call there as well. wth

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Damnit...

[symple19]

Niner D holds again...

Props to the SF defense, really playing well

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Mcafee has really punted the ball well today

[symple19]

Mcafee has really punted the ball well today

both punters have been great

[symple19]

Okay Jimmy Raye...Maybe a pass on first for a change? or some shotgun?

[symple19]

fantastic, a run on second by the fullback.,....

[symple19]

cursing in 3...2...1... FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!!! Shitty series SF!!

Can't keep giving the damn ball back to Peyton like this

[symple19]

there's the brilliance of Peyton to catch the defense off guard

[SpursFanFirst]

huh. when did we get within 2?

[SpursFanFirst]

oh look. another injury. :(

[symple19]

either a cramp, or a smart play to slow down the offense

[symple19]

Colts fans think it was a ploy, I might agree

[SpursFanFirst]

seriously? booing? c'mon now.

[SpursFanFirst]

Colts fans think it was a ploy, I might agree

I guess. but still.
TN did that to us a lot a couple of season ago.

[symple19]

Niners better adjust to this no-huddle...or else

[SpursFanFirst]

Niners better adjust to this no-huddle...or else

yeah. this is where manning usually turns it on.

[symple19]

OMG, stupid penalty

[SpursFanFirst]

nice.
Diem gets a reprieve.

[SpursFanFirst]

yay addai! nice one, bud. Maybe I can't pull my addai jersey out. lol

[symple19]

you're seeing the difference between a good offense and a bad one...Peyton identifies something that works, and goes with it.

The Niners find something that works, and then goes back to doing stuff that doesn't work...

Infuriating

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Hell YEAH!!! Nice hahaha

[SpursFanFirst]

:wow it wasn't overthrown!!!!

[symple19]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargggggggggghhhhhhhh

nice play by the colts

[SpursFanFirst]

i don't like it when teams go for 2. it rarely works and it always feels wasted

[symple19]

Fucking Niners better start opening up the playbook on this next drive

[SpursFanFirst]

what just happened?

[symple19]

i don't like it when teams go for 2. it rarely works and it always feels wasted

it's the right call here...nothing to lose

[SpursFanFirst]

haha this umpire is cracking me up

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

i don't like it when teams go for 2. it rarely works and it always feels wasted


I don't really understand the call TBH. Either way the 49ers need a TD to win....

[SpursFanFirst]

dammit manning! see? that's what i mean. take the extra point!!!!

[symple19]

Let's go Niners!!!! C'mon baby, let's get a TD!!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Aside from the Gore TD run the Colts D has done a pretty solid job. Let's keep it up Indy,

[symple19]

I don't really understand the call TBH. Either way the 49ers need a TD to win....

well, it's a TD the niners need either way. If you make the 2 then you force the niners to make the extra point to take the lead, plus you set yourself up to retake the lead with a FG instead of a TD in the event the Niners score

[symple19]

Get ready for some more inept offense?

[symple19]

dammit Bruce, catch that ball

[symple19]

nice catch Crab...

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Come on Indy.... :(

[symple19]

Wow, they're moving the ball

[SpursFanFirst]

freakin' brett favre crap. Can't we get through ONE game without talk of him?

[symple19]

eventually the Niners will figure out that the pass sets up the run, not vice versa

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Shit.... 49ers marching

[SpursFanFirst]

whoa! almost int

[symple19]

holy shit, that was dangerous

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

freakin' brett favre crap. Can't we get through ONE game without talk of him?


Maybe after this week? :depressed

[symple19]

c'mon, let's get the first

[SpursFanFirst]

c'mon DDDDDD

[symple19]

OMFG --- terrible, drive killing stuff right there

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Ouch Delay of game.... Can't let those happen

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Come on D

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Robert Mathis :D :D :D

[SpursFanFirst]

Hm. I'm not going to be able to watch the whole 4th.

And it's about damn time we sacked him!

[symple19]

gotta punt....damn

[symple19]

Robert Mathis :D :D :D

your DEs are sick

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

What a huge sack!!!!! That spin was niiiiice

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

your DEs are sick


Yeah, Mathis and Freeney are lethal when they know it is going to be a pass. If only the D-line could stop the run :(

[symple19]

wow, eagles are crushing the Giants

[SpursFanFirst]

What a huge sack!!!!! That spin was niiiiice

Usually, that's freeney's move

[symple19]

Niner D has to step up

[SpursFanFirst]

wow, eagles are crushing the Giants

Yeah, they are...and that's putting it mildly.
And the Broncos are still losing. yay.

[dirk4mvp]

wtf, justin.tv can be pretty unreliable.

[SpursFanFirst]

Oh man!!! sweet pass and catch.

What are all those records going to look like when Manning's playing career is done? :wow

[symple19]

geez...like I said, eventually the dam would burst

[symple19]

wtf, justin.tv can be pretty unreliable.

that's an understatement

[SpursFanFirst]

wtf, justin.tv can be pretty unreliable.

yeah. I have a co-worker who's a huge packer fan. Living in Indy, he can't see very many games. He's tried justin, but the games don't show up.

[dirk4mvp]

that's an understatement

lol i finally got a link working after missing the last quarter

[Spursfan092120]

I got another good site, but I can't post it on here...

[SpursFanFirst]

lol I'm sorry. I wasn't for the booing before, but c'mon.

[SpursFanFirst]

I got another good site, but I can't post it on here...

you can PM him.

[dirk4mvp]

yeah. I have a co-worker who's a huge packer fan. Living in Indy, he can't see very many games. He's tried justin, but the games don't show up.

If you look long enough you can usually find one, but they're subject to just stop working at any moment :(

[symple19]

well, the niners need to at least keep the Colts to a FG here, or else it's probably over

[symple19]

lol i finally got a link working after missing the last quarter

i just sent you 2 different ones to try

[IronMexican]

If you look long enough you can usually find one, but they're subject to just stop working at any moment :(

atdhe.net

[symple19]

Niners held...gonna get another chance

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Damn, why would he catch that? Hope for a touchback....

[dirk4mvp]

thaks for the links brah

[SpursFanFirst]

:lol this commercial

[symple19]

C'mon guys!!!! Let's get it done....pretty please???

okay, another first...

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Nice pass

I love your avatar, symple. It makes me laugh every time I look over.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Kelvin Hayden is out still isn't he?

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

DAMN, Bethea :(

[symple19]

[SpursFanFirst]

whew! My stomach dropped there

wooo! sack "pey"back there :)

[dirk4mvp]

Freeney!

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Dwight Freeney :)

[symple19]

worst punt of the day, and a bad time for it...

All Peyton needs to do is put together a min-drive and I think the Niners are done.

Playing "with" the best and losing don't mean shit in this league

[symple19]

Spikes back in...a good sign

[symple19]

gotta stop em here...be a pass for sure

[SpursFanFirst]

Well, I haven't paid attention to the league much this year, so i wasn't sure what to expect from a 3-3 team.
The 9ers have put up more of a fight than I thought.
No matter the outcome today, perhaps this will put a new mindset in them and turn their season around.

[symple19]

Fuckin Clark and Manning are so money

[dirk4mvp]

<3 Clark

[SpursFanFirst]

nice, addai! He's having a decent day for a change.

[symple19]

That might be the game right there...nice run by addai

[dirk4mvp]

LSU guy finally looking good in the nfl for a change.

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Rams could get their first win today... :)

Niners D is legit

Niners Offense is inconsistent and vanilla

Niners special teams is solid.

Seems like they're close to something, but then again they may just be mediocre, or worse. QB play is IMO the missing link, that and better play-calling

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Denver loses :D

[SpursFanFirst]

stretch is going to get the bronco fans all riled up. lol ...and I helped. (we need an angel icon.)

[symple19]

Colts are perhaps the best team in the league. I give them an edge over the Saints because of Peyton and their experience

Dallas "money" Clark...Dammit

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Clark... wow

[dirk4mvp]

Clark.

Pro Bowl confirmed.

[SpursFanFirst]

dang. I need to leave for work.
Nice talking with yall today.

Good game.

[SpursFanFirst]

Clark.

The usual suspects - Saturday, Manning, Clark, freeney? Who else?

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

I just really wish the Colts were more consistent with their running game, but when Gonzalez comes back in a week or so the Colts will have just that many more weapons on offense.

[symple19]

Stupid mistakes are what make a team mediocre as well. Niners have had 3 penalties like that where it absolutely killed them

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

The usual suspects - Saturday, Manning, Clark, freeney? Who else?

you as well. have a good one

over 100yds as usual

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Would have been nice to see Manning throw for a TD, but the W is always good as well.

[symple19]

here comes the "it's a good effort, morale victory...blah blah blah""

[symple19]

Would have been nice to see Manning throw for a TD, but the W is always good as well.

the HB pass call was dead balls on though. A win is a win is a win

[Spursfan092120]

here comes the "it's a good effort, morale victory...blah blah blah""
as much as I dislike the 9ers, I hate seeing people get hurt..I didn't get to see the game, I was watching the Cowboys...are any of them serious? (hopefully not)...

[symple19]

who cares, it's not like the Niners have any time to do anything

[symple19]

as much as I dislike the 9ers, I hate seeing people get hurt..I didn't get to see the game, I was watching the Cowboys...are any of them serious? (hopefully not)...

not sure yet... Clements/Staley never came back. Spikes did

Clements Staley are 2 of the 5 best players on the team

[symple19]

Clark.

Pro Bowl confirmed.

Agreed --- Texans have a good one too

[Spursfan092120]

not sure yet... Clements/Staley never came back. Spikes did

Clements Staley are 2 of the 5 best players on the team
ouch..yeah they are...good luck to em...gonna be a LONG season without em...

[symple19]

Peyton is always in control of things...Makes me nostalgic for Montana

[dirk4mvp]

lol the justintv link crapped out right after Indy took that timeout

Good game Colts fans...

cussing in 3...2...1... FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK

Niners being irrelavant like they usually are. Here's to 6-10.:toast

At least one AFC team is still undefeated
