I don't know about Alex Smith being over the line on that last big pass, but in my opinion, that would have been a non-issue had Doctson held onto that TD pass. Boneheaded penalties and turnovers willl kill a team's chances almost 100% of the time, and last night was no different. But still, if KC turns out to be the best team in the league, then what does that say about the Redskins, who had so many injuries on defense last night, kept shooting themselves in the foot, and still had an opportunity to come out with a win? I think our team has taken the next step.

[Chief X_Phackter]

In my mind, the defensive penalties at critical moments that led to points was the biggest difference in the game. We don't even need Doctson to catch that ball at the end if we don't allow the Chiefs all the extra opportunities to score.

Overall can't be too disappointed in the first four games. 3-1 and 4-0 would obviously be better, but 2-2 puts this team in a good position in the division and the NFC.

It's critical to get guys healthy during the bye week and come out strong. I suspect we crush SF pretty handily and get on a roll.

Always sucks to lose a tough one but I think we need some perspective. We took the best team in the league down to the wire on the road. I think we’ve got much more to be happy about than not.

This. And we weren't keeping Garcon AND DJax. We need Pryor and Doctson to grow through the season but if they don't we get others. We aren't tied to either one with an unmanageable contract like we would have been with either Garcon or DJax.

True but it has been painful watching those two struggle plus it has limited Crowder now that he is being more of the focus of the defense. We have been spoiled at WR for a few years now. Hard to go from a Caddy to a Ford.

Shitting on Doctson makes no sense, he was a tough catch away from being a hero, he probably makes that catch 9 out of 10 times. Plenty of good receivers in this league make similar drops every week.

[SFREDSKIN]

Things started going downhill after Kelley left the game. We were running the ball and mixing with CT, Perine came in and had 2 bad plays, there went our running game and went to the air. This team does better when the play calling is 50/50. Pryor had some drops including alligator arms on a sure 1st down, dropped others, Reed wasn’t on the same page as Kirk on another, Kirk over threw Grant on another. Need to bench Perine and play Brown.

Overall we played a SB contender on the road to the last 4 secs. You can't be mad at that. Plus all the damn injuries. We'll bounce back in a couple weeks

Breeland isn't coming back folks...this is his last season here.


I stated it before, but we need some growth from Kelly and Perine. But Mack needs a chance to start imo.

As well he shouldn't. How do you horse collar a guy right in front of the ref when it looked like the guy was heading out of bounds? Also the hands to the facemask when we had a stop to get off the field. Just dumb shit you can't have. This is his 5th year and he's still doing rookie shit? To me he's been the worst corner on the team.

The real bitter in this Hershey Special Dark Bar is the lost of Josh, probably out a few weeks with his rib. That sucks!

Hoping two weeks. We can beat the bye week and SF without him. Technically that is three weeks until we need him. We are a damn good team. I have totally done a 180 with my thoughts about these guys. After what I have seen I would say we win 11 games. HTTR.

And after we lose the bye?? Then what, you'll be screaming WE ARE DOOMED!

For years even the bye week has worried me. But I finally think we have a confident, well balanced team that can get it done!

Idk man, the 49ers have that Garcon guy at wideout who's more or less the 2nd coming of Jerry Rice, I don't like our odds without Norman.
