Week 10: New York Football Giants (6-2) @ San Francisco 49ers (7-1)

To be fair to Rolle, due to the injuries in the secondary he's forced to play out of position (alot more man to man coverage) They're using him as a cb in the nickel package with Phillips and Grant at safety.

That's just scary.

If Bowman and Willis team up like that...wow.

My linebacker-loving self is just going to have to keep an eye on this. Never thought I'd be looking at becoming a 49ers fan, but defense-first teams ALWAYS get my attention, especially in this QB-rules-all mindset of the game.

What happened with Patrick Willis/Jake Ballard at the end of that game? I had to go to work during the 3rd quarter but my friends kept telling me something about Ballard/Willis on 4th and 2 with 40 ticks left in the game? I haven't had much time since then to really dig in to it but I heard there was a significantly big missed call at the end there.

Hats off to the Niners though, they look like they're "back".

Oh and, who is Alex Smith...and what did he do with Alex Smith? That guy looked halfway decent out there.

The same guy he's always been, he just doesn't have a mongoloid coaching him anymore. Alex has actually had flashes of brilliance for years, but nobody realizes this because they don't watch Niners games.

One of my best friends through the years is a Niners fan. He changed his opinion on the guy weekly it seemed. Good to see him finally in the right situation.

He was drafted as a cb so it's not really out of position. He's just not a good player. He's never been a good nfl player.
