In case you haven't noticed this thread is about the 2013 Niners, is it ok with you if I talk about my team?
Dude, don't we all have the option of reading those threads we find interesting? So why not by pass stuff that doesn't interest you? I do that all the time.
I'm also really not too concerned with what you need me to do, who the are you?
Couldn't be more wrong if you tried especially with that Harvin line, that was ridiculous.
The Seahawks cannot match...
Mario Manningham
Antuan Boldin
Michael Crabtree
Vernon Davis
And where you got the idea they have the better D line..???????????????
The Niners have a better gang of backs, better receivers, a better front seven, yep the Seahawks have the better secondary.
The Resdkins don't even belong in the same discussion.
You're a got
My bad dude, I guess I missed the part where this is the first thread in the history of internet message boards to go off topic. Stay gay, got.
Would you believe once upon a time the AFL West Conference started this backfield in the All Star game?
QB...Tobin Rote
FB...Keith Lincoln
RB...Paul Lowe
Flanker...Lance Alworth
All Chargers.
Stay simple and immature.
Two clutch receivers who really aren't that good, one near-bust and one late bloomer. There's not an explosive play-maker out of that bunch. I don't know how you think Kaep's getting the ball downfield with those four.
The Seahawks had a better line last season, and they added to really good ends to that. The 49ers really have to worry about Smith's long-term future.
And no, Gore isn't better than Lynch. Gore's massively overrated.
"Wash" means "tie," by the way.
Dude, ya really do need to do your homework, honest!
Gore has caught over 300 passes, Lynch less than 150. Gore has never had a season where he averaged less than 4.2, Lynch has had three seasons at less than 4.0. Gore has scored more touchdowns, he's had more long runs, he's had more seasons with a plus 4.4 average, what in the are you looking at? Gore 4.6 career avg, Lynch 4.2 now add the fact Gore also catchs the ball.
I put Gore/Lynch wash because both are great backs, can't go wrong with either but Gore has had by far the better career,
Go ahead run off to..GOOGLE...and look for yourself.
Believe whatever ya like as we can see you need some homework.
Overrated????

I didn't say Lynch had the better career. I assumed we were talking about the future.
Gore is going to be 30 and going into his ninth year. Last year was the first that Gore played every game since 2006. He's had injury issues every year.
He only caught five more passes and for about 80 more yards than Lynch did. Lynch meanwhile out gained Gore by 400 yards from scrimmage and scored four more touchdowns. There's little question Lynch is better right now.
It's pretty clear why no one wants to talk to you. You make all this ruckus about just wanting to talk football, but you bring up such terrible support for your arguments that it's hard to take that claim seriously. I mean, come on; you're trying to use catches in an argument for who's the better back? It's not even like Gore is really multi-dimensional. Ray Rice had more catches last season than Gore had the last two seasons combined. He's certainly not even the discussion as a dual-threat.
You do know that Lynch is also heading into his ninth season, right? And no he isn't the better back right now or next season or in his career. He averages less, he scores less, he isn't the receiving threat, he doesn't break the long run.
What you said was Gore was overrated, where did you get that? The guy has averaged 4.6 over 8 seasons, do I really need to point out all those HOF backs who averaged less? Gore is a great back as we saw in that video. Yes being a receiving threat is a biggie just ask a defensive cordinator.
Linford Christie won the Olympic 100m at well over 30. Gore is not showing any signs of age.
You look at average per carry, that tells the tale. Jiimmy Brown, Barry Sanders and Gale Sayers all averaged 5.0 or more for a career. No wonder they are as revered as they are. Lynch averages 4.2, that is very average. Yes he is a stud but has....0...on Frank Gore, the stats prove that....fact.

Lynch was drafted in 2007. Next season will be his seventh. That oversight is indicative of your whole argument.
He's had a better year than Gore each of the last two seasons. He's also three years younger than Gore. Gore's been hurt every year except for last year. There's no question who looks like they'll be better for the future.
It's very obvious you really haven't seen Gore play all that much. Your..overrated...makes that clear. The Seahawks used Lynch more, that's the only difference.
Both teams are Superbowl contenders right now, not too concerned with 3 years down the road. As of right now Frank Gore is every bit as good as Lynch, there is no reasoning/logic at all that disputes that. Look at their average per carry the last two seasons, what do we see?
I'm flattered. I didn't even know I was rated.
Also, I thought a 5.0 YPC was supposed to be hall worthy. Lynch is a higher-usage player than Gore, which happens when a player is younger. I don't trust that Gore will ever play a full season again. He's only had two in his career. Lynch is certainly peaking, too, but he should still have more miles left than Gore. Obviously Harbaugh agrees, seeing as he drafted another back in the second last year.
The fact that Lynch has had a better average YPC over the last two seasons, is three years younger and is a better workhorse certainly suggests he's better than Gore looking forward. You can disagree with that all you want, but that doesn't make you right. I doubt there's a coach in the league that'd take Gore over Lynch for just next year, let alone beyond that.
Having seen both many many times, there is no doubt who the better back is. Facts are just that, facts. Gore breaks long runs, we rarely see that out of Lynch, yes I know he did have.."the"...run and he is a quality back but can't put him above Gore, sure in a couple years but when we look back on both careers, it will Gore who had the better one.
Antoine Winfield is close to signing with the Seahawks. His signing would just add to the advantage the Seahawks have over the 49'ers.
