They really seem to be doing well under Harbaugh.

Frank Gore runs like someone owes him money!

I like their chances against Detroit.

just my .02

Totally rejuvenated team....one of the nastiest def's in the NFL right now. Great matchup with Detroit.

49ers are getting better each week....they will be very competitive by November.....Maybe even reaching the playoffs. IMHO

Too early to drink the kool-aid just yet. Alex Smith is likely due for a meltdown at some point in the season. Defense is solid for sure.

Agree. He started strong last year and faded. Definitely have a wait-and-see approach with him.

They come to Baltimore on Thanksgiving night. Looking forward to that game.

From what I can see on all the shows, most are predicting the 49ers to win and Detroit is only getting 1/4 of the votes or so.

Team looks better now under Harbaugh than it ever did with Singeltary. I loved Mike though, too bad he couldn't do anything like Harbaugh has.

It will be the Stafford and Johnson show all day. Detroit by 21 (at least).

I thought the post-game handshake and shove in the back was too animated, but the reaction was pretty bush league. Chasing the guy down and bumping him?

Fury · « **Reply #15 on:** October 17, 2011, 08:29:34 PM »

I thought it was pretty cool. Shows how serious the Lions are about winning and should only help to fire them up. Who would have thought that a year or two ago?

Dos Equis · « **Reply #16 on:** October 17, 2011, 08:52:09 PM »

It's good to see the Lions winning. They drafted well.

it was over the top, but why chase the guy down...just talk about it in the press conference or local media. A coach should be above that. But obviously the guy has the Lions going in the right direction, good for him.

wild willie · « **Reply #18 on:** October 18, 2011, 10:25:51 AM »

Wait a minute......

Harbaugh beat the lions....everyone has been drinking lion kool aid......the 49ers have been down for a bit too.....Harbaugh has the 49ers running at top speed now! He is the guy that has literally turned two different teams around: Stanford and now the 49ers.....He is the guy that is doing well!!!!

The 49ers defense is top notch....but all you hear about is the lions D.....Well.....Frisco proved that they were ready for the lions.....and beat them in Detroit no less. Just my .02.

Its really good to see the Lions winning. Detroit (the city) needs more of it.

But, its even better to see the Niners playing at the level they are playing.

It shows the effect good coaching can have on a team especially when you consider Singletary was 0-5 with virtually the same players.

Some interesting notes (i realize this is more defense than QB):

Smith has brought the niners back to win in the 4th quarter in 3 away games this year. the last QB to do that was Joe Montana.

Also, Smith after the philly game last year went 7 TD's and 1 interception for the rest of the year and in the first 6 this year is 8 TD's and 2 Int's.

So we cant blame Smith's QB play totally on Harbaugh being a QB whisperer.

Interesting stuff. Didn't realize that about Smith's production last year.

I was able to watch the entire game and he was pretty good, except for a few pretty bad passes. He targeted Crabtree 15 times (I think).

With their defense playing the way it is, they could definitely make the playoffs this year. Need to keep Gore and their WR group healthy.

Poor Singletary. I was a big fan of his, but their success this year with pretty much the same players is really making him look pretty bad.

How's it going bro?!!! Anyway Smith is doing much better, but the scheme that Harbaugh has him doing (3 step drop and quick throw) has reduced his fumbling and interceptions. But his accuracy is still off. He's got this year left and I don't know if they'll re sign him again. That probably means we're going to give up the farm for Luck if the owners and Harbaugh really want him. I know Luck would love to stay in the Bay Area and be under Harbaugh again as well as there wouldn't be a lot of learning to do under the system. Here's hoping for the best.

I wish Crabtree had a better QB throwing him the ball. He's on my fantasy roster as a bench player. He's got the talent to be a star. He comes off as a bit of a diva, but that should change as he matures. He had his best game this season against Detroit. I just think Alex Smith is mediocre at best and the only reason he's starting is because he was a former #1 overall pick.
