And that's just on defense.
This team is 3-4 years away from being capable of winning a playoff game.
And by then a replacement for Smith, Charles and sadly Bowe...
If we are going to lose, let Charles get 15-22 touches a game.. Oh wait, we would have won most of our losses if they did that.. [Reply]

Guess what, we aren’t running a sideways offense any longer. We weren’t going to be successful with that approach. Glad that Reid did his job and found a QB that could run a proper downfield offense. [Reply]

Maybe 2 years, we have too many holes and question marks! [Reply]

Charles was not very effective running the ball today aside from the long TD run. His other 9 carries netted a total of 28 yards.
His last 6 carries were for:
1, 3, 2, 2, 1 and 0 yards.
Teams are putting all their players in the box and we have no answer. It is exactly the pattern that happened when Herm was running the offense and LJ became less and less effective. You have to have a downfield component of your passing game to keep defenses honest. [Reply]

Alex Smith has attempted 15 passes of 20 yards or more this season.

But Charles has never had a good passing game nor a good offensive line. Yet, he's the all time leader in YPC. Haven't teams stacked the box against him before? I would imagine they've done it his whole career.
They need to keep feeding him the rock, because he's the only big play threat we have. [Reply]
