Title: 2013 NFL Thread
Post by: Dos Equis on September 09, 2013, 12:12:22 PM
Great Sunday.  The Packers spent the entire offseason figuring out how to stop the read-option.  Even sent coaches to go meet with former University of Hawaii defensive coordinator Dave Aranda (now the DC at the U. of Wisconsin).  Sent coaches to meet with other coaches who faced Kaepernick when he was at Nevada.  All in an attempt to stop the Niners from racking up over 300 yards rushing again. 

So what does Harbaugh do?  Completely changes the game plan.  The Niners run for only 90, but pass for 400.  Great coach. 

Boldin is a beast.  So is Vernon Davis.  When Crabtree comes back, that will be an even more potent offense. 

Watched the fourth quarter of Seattle v. Carolina.  That little Russell Wilson looks like a better QB than that Paul Bunyan of a QB in Carolina.

RB: 49ers prepping for 'She-Hawks'
Updated: September 12, 2013
ESPN.com news services

San Francisco 49ers running back Anthony Dixon apparently isn't worried about tweeting bulletin board material for the Seattle Seahawks ahead of the teams' Sunday night showdown.

Dixon, a fourth-year player whose season high for carries is 70 as a rookie in 2010, posted his thoughts about the 49ers facing their NFC West rivals on his Twitter account Wednesday night.

He tweeted: "Extra weight on the racks all week getting less sleep preparing for these She-Hawks I love hostile environments Imma feel right at home..."

Dixon deleted the tweet Thursday morning, but not before it had been noticed and reported by several media outlets.

Seahawks linebacker K.J. Wright, a college teammate of Dixon's at Mississippi State, responded to Dixon's tweet on Wednesday night. He also later deleted his tweet.

In a reply to Dixon, he wrote: "lol the she hawks!! I'll be sure relay the message to the fellas.. Its gone be a long night for you and the forty whiners."

The 49ers held off the Seahawks last season to win the NFC West title for the second straight year, but San Francisco was blown out the last time it played at CenturyLink Field.

The Seahawks blasted the 49ers 42-13 in that Dec. 23 game as Russell Wilson threw four touchdown passes and Marshawn Lynch rushed for 111 yards and a touchdown.

Dixon had just two carries for 8 yards in that game. He didn't have a carry in the 49ers' Week 1 victory over the Green Bay Packers but did have a 30-yard kickoff return.

This is the second straight week Dixon, 24, has made headlines. Last week he said he turned down a $24,000 offer from teammate Nnamdi Asomugha for his No. 24, which the veteran cornerback wanted to wear in his first season with the 49ers.

Aldon Smith suspected of DUI
Updated: September 20, 2013
ESPN.com news services

SAN FRANCISCO -- Authorities say San Francisco 49ers All Pro linebacker Aldon Smith is out of jail following his arrest on suspicion of driving under the influence and marijuana possession.


Aldon Smith's Off-Field Troubles
Aldon Smith has faced a series of issues off the field since the 49ers drafted him with the 7th overall pick in 2011.

• Jan. 2012: Arrested in Miami on DUI (charges later reduced)

• June 2012: Stabbed during party at his house

• Sept. 2013: Named in lawsuit by man who said he was shot during party at Smith's house

• Friday: Arrested in San Jose on suspicion of DUI

Santa Clara County Sheriff's Sgt. Kurtis Stenderup says Smith posted $5,250 bail on Friday morning, just hours after he was taken into custody by police responding to a solo vehicle crash involving a pickup truck in San Jose's Silver Creek area.

Police say Smith was arrested after officers gave him a breathalyzer test and determined he was under the influence.

The 49ers said in a statement that the team is aware of the matter and had no further comment. It's not clear whether Smith will play for the Niners when they host the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.

The linebacker was also arrested on suspicion of drunken driving in Miami Beach in January 2012.

Smith has also been named in a lawsuit by a Northern California man who said he was shot during a party at Smith's house.

In the suit filed earlier this month in Santa Clara County Superior Court, David Kleczek, an attorney for Ronndale Esporlas, claims that Smith and former Niners tight end Delanie Walker fired weapons illegally during a party at Smith's San Jose home on June 29, 2012.

Aldon Smith was arrested on DUI and marijuana charges early Friday. The talented defensive end needs to get his life under control before he blows his chance at a special NFL career, Bill Williamson writes. Blog

The players charged a $10 admission and $5 per drink, the lawsuit said. Smith, 23, and Walker, who is also named in the suit, were allegedly intoxicated on Smith's balcony when they later fired gunshots in the air while trying to end the party, the lawsuit said.

Kleczek said they then moved to the driveway where he alleged more shots were fired. Esporlas, 21, was shot twice in the leg while he was "caught in the crossfire between the two groups of people firing gunshots at each other," the lawsuit said.

As a result, Esporlas, "sustained serious, catastrophic and permanent injuries," the lawsuit said. The lawsuit seeks unspecified damages.

Attorneys for Smith and Walker, 29, have said Esporlas "freely and voluntarily exposed himself to all risks of harm" by attending the party.

They say injuries suffered by Esporlas, who was shot in the leg, were not caused by the defendants.

Santa Clara County prosecutors have said they are considering criminal charges.

Aldon Smith charged with felonies
Updated: October 9, 2013
Associated Press

SANTA CLARA, Calif. -- San Francisco 49ers linebacker Aldon Smith was charged Wednesday with three felony counts of illegal possession of an assault weapon, stemming from a party at his home in June 2012.

The Santa Clara County district attorney's office said in announcing the charges that Smith, 24, is expected to surrender later this month. He is on an indefinite leave of absence from the defending NFC champion 49ers while undergoing treatment for substance abuse at an in-patient facility following a DUI arrest Sept. 20.

"We've been aware of the incident, the serious nature of it. We're all accountable for our actions, good and bad," 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh said Wednesday. "There's a process, due process, that will take place. I don't feel any need to comment further on it."

When asked whether Smith -- who set a franchise record with 19.5 sacks last season -- would play again this season, Harbaugh said only, "I don't have any need to further comment on it."

On Monday, the coach said he had traded a few text messages with Smith, saying, "Heard that things are going very well, very positive reports back."

If convicted, Smith could face up to four years and four months in jail, the district attorney's office said.

"The preamble to the assault weapons law states that each assault weapon 'has such a high rate of fire and capacity for firepower that its function as a legitimate sports or recreational firearm is substantially outweighed by the danger that it can be used to kill and injure human beings,'" District Attorney Jeff Rosen said. "California's prohibition of these powerful weapons is not about hunting or target practice. It is about interrupting the long history of death, carnage and grief assault weapons have inflicted on California communities."

Smith also is likely to face a suspension from the NFL, perhaps pushed back to next season or after his legal issues are resolved.

"The 49ers organization is aware of the recent developments with Aldon arising from an incident at his home in 2012," the team said in a statement Wednesday. "We recognize the serious nature of this situation, as does Aldon, and will continue to monitor it closely. As this is an ongoing legal matter, we will have no further comment."

Last month, Smith and former teammate Delanie Walker were named in a lawsuit filed in Santa Clara County Superior Court by a Northern California man who said he was shot at a party at Smith's house on June 29, 2012.

The players charged a $10 admission and $5 per drink, the lawsuit said. Smith and now-Tennessee Titans tight end Walker, 29, were allegedly intoxicated when they fired gunshots into the air off a balcony while trying to end the party, the lawsuit said.

Before the 2012 home opener last September, Smith was a passenger in a car during an accident in Santa Clara County in which the driver swerved to avoid hitting a deer. Smith sustained a cut beneath his right eyebrow. He apologized and insisted he had grown up.

Smith, selected seventh overall in the 2011 draft out of Missouri, had previously been arrested on suspicion of DUI in January 2012 in Miami shortly after the 49ers lost in the NFC title game.

He is on the reserve non-football injury list while in rehab, and there is no NFL minimum for number of games he must miss while on the list.

Smith played in a 27-7 home loss to the Indianapolis Colts on Sept. 22 and had five tackles just two days after he was arrested and jailed on suspicion of DUI and marijuana possession. Smith apologized for his behavior after the game.

The one where he escaped multiple rushers and Tyree made an unheard of catch, under the context of the Giants having to score a TD to prevent the greatest offense in NFL history from going 19-0.

It's the greatest play in history, given the context, and the fact that it was unbelievable on two fronts, the escape and the catch.

The pass to Manningham in the next SB was perfection, with a pretty strong context of its own.   I remember Steve Young throwing a ball before half time against SD that I thought was the greatest throw of all time when I saw it.

Greatest play in history?  I guess that's a matter of opinion.  I think Montana to Taylor to win a Super Bowl was better.  Marcus Allen's long TD run.  The Roethlisberger pass and Manningham catch were better.  I remember Riggins making a great play in the SB. 

BTW, I think Riggins is the best player I never talk about.  One of my all-time favorites.

All great plays, yes, but none at the craziness on multiple fronts, and none had the context of at 19-0 season on the line.  But, it's all subjective.  Hard to pick a greatest anything in any genre.

All great plays, yes, but none at the craziness on multiple fronts, and none had the context of at 19-0 season on the line.  But, it's all subjective.  Hard to pick a greatest anything in any genre.

True.

he's  got 2 superbowls already, that's more than enough for peyton's little brother.

Yeah.  How the heck does he have more SBs than Peyton??  (Maybe because Peyton is the greatest regular season QB in the NFL.)

I think its the schemes they use.  Rice is a solid WR and Tate is a good #2.  Lynch is a top 10 RB and I have like Wilson since his days here at NC State.  I think the play calling is off a bit at times and the o line isnt very good.

The key for the rest of the NFC is to not let the Seahawks get homefield.  They have shown how shitty they can play on the road.

They have proven unbeatable so far at home under Wilson.

I get it. Maybe pass interference was not the right call.

It was atleast a holding call. 5 yards, and another play.

It was a penalty. It was home-cooking.

That's partly a product of their offense.  They're running, ball control team.  He's second on the team in both targets and receptions.  If they had a more wide open offense like NE, he'd have more catches.

A TE should be perfect in that offense.  A lot of play action plus secondary having to come up for run support. Just a shame they cant find a way.  They have better RB's and WR's than NE.

Seahawks fans set off seismometer with jumping, cheering
Posted: Dec 03, 2013 6:22 AM HST
Updated: Dec 03, 2013 6:27 AM HST

SEATTLE (AP) — The Seattle Seahawks fans have set a new noise record for loudest outdoor sports stadium, taking back a mark they achieved earlier this season.

An official from Guinness World Records recorded the crowd noise at 137.6 decibels during the Seahawks victory over the New Orleans Saints on Monday night. The record came during the second quarter of Seattle's 34-7 victory and was announced on the Seahawks Twitter page.

A University of Washington earth sciences professor says the legendary noisemaking of Seattle Seahawks' hometown fans registered on a nearby seismometer with roughly the same energy as a magnitude 1 or 2 earthquake during Seattle's 34-7 Monday night victory over the New Orleans Saints.

John Vidale is also director of the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network. He says it's hard to compare the fans' half minute of stomping, jumping and shouting during a first quarter fumble return for a touchdown to the quick "pop" of a small earthquake. Still he says, "the energy is very roughly the same."

The UW seismometer in question is located near CenturyLink Field.

Seahawks fans had set a record of 136.6 in a win over San Francisco in September. The mark was topped by Kansas City fans in October with 137.5 decibels.

To put that in perspective, a jet engine at 100 feet is about 140 decibels.
