49ers are usually amazing at home. With that, I call for a forecast of..... DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!

Being a fan since the early 90's, I get why I got emotionally involved until a few years after the Music City Miracle. The team was always a few plays away from being back in their glory days. But now, after all this time, I feel insane for letting this team get to me. If you read all the threads, right or wrong, there is so much passion around who is to blame. The QB, the coaches, the scheme. You could go back on this thread for 15 years and see the exact same topics, but with just different coaches and players filling in the blanks. Some remember different players better than they were, or drafts that could have been. And even his year, after the blow out to the Jets, I told myself that I would not allow myself to get excited if we got to 2-1 heading into the Pats game. Logic said that beating two crap teams after a typical division game had this team smelling of old. Yet there I was at half time just absolutely pumped about the D, FItz, Spiller/Fred playing and a gameplan that had Brady frustrated. Skip to the end, I'm pissed off, depressed, and done with football for the day and back to my normal conclusion of the Bills not being a very good team. I went through the basic steps: 1 - Fitz sucks 2 - Can't wait to see how BillFromNYC tries to spin this crap 3 - Gonna torch some optimists on the forum 4 - Wanny sucks 5 - Why does my wife look happy 6 - Great, now the Yankees are going to lose too 7 - Why the hell aren't people agreeing with my anger and why the hell is my wife so happy! 8 - Depression. 9 - Self-awareness "How did I get here again" I seriously feel like an abused wife. "But he loves me. He promises he'll change." What would you say to that person? Nothing I say or do is going to change anything around how I feel. The only optimism I have is that the beat down in San Fran won't feel so bad next week. Can all teams be like this. Why couldn't I have been raised a Giants fan or something? No point to this, just talking

You know what makes me even more of a Fitz non-supporter, watching any other quarterback play. Just one drive by Eli makes feel like we don't have a clue at qb

Is there any way to re-word the topic of this thread to make it any more clear that today's game is not why I'm bailing on Fitz or do I have to keep reading about people talking about the Defense and the fumbles? As said by a few of you, Fitz is a tease and today was actually a good day for him. But today is not enough and a perfect example of why he can't be the guy for us. No clock management, really off target throws when we needed to sustain drives, and absolutely pathetic in comparison to a qb on the field who was in the same position with team support and down 14, but handled it the complete opposite. No, I don't want Tom Brady or a top 5 QB, but I do want a guy who isn't going to help us lose.

Is he the QB you want on the field for us, this season and next. Simple Question.

Is it not fair to say that Brady got just as much Defensive support and turnovers not caused by him? Yet look at the difference in response. Brady calls audibles and just carved us up. He was hitting Welker on out routes all day. Fitz overthrew them all day. Let's make this really simple. Because this is not about the rest of the team. Are you saying that Fitz is the QB you want in there. Not, "He's what we have" or "we could do worse." Is he your guy. When next years offseason rolls around, are you not looking at QB's? Myself, I wanted it to be Fitz. I really did. I just can't believe in him anymore

It's not a coincidence that I started this thread after this game because this game perfectly sums up his career to me. Blah start. Great middle to give hope, still making a few just off throws to make you worried, then looks like a child compared to a real QB. I'm not putting this game on Fitz, but he didn't win it either and it's a great representation of his entire career IMO

Holy **** man, let it go. Yeah, it hurt and it shouldn't have happened. But you know what, he's earned it

I'm going to say this one more time, who said anything about today's game? I do believe he didn't do enough to keep the team on the field so the d could catch their breath. But ultimately, I said his collection of work. Please stop with the argument that he didn't single handedly lose the game today. But... If you want to. Brady was down 14 without an interception and did take control and win the game for his team. Fitz sure didn't do that.

Who said anything about this game?

At this point in his career, what makes you believe he can be the guy for 4 quarters, against a division rival, or to get us to the playoffs. I have the Fitz jersey, the original belief, and the desire for him to be good. He shows glimpses, but not a complete story. He's not the guy to get us to the next level. I think that anyone who believes otherwise is crazy, but I'm listening.

Outcoached in divisional games - 100 points given up in 2 games, ridiculous record for Chan against the AFC East Fitz has a pathetic arm. Makes just enough throws to give you a glimpse, but can't do it for 4 quarters. He'll win just enough to not let us draft high enough to get his replacement. Offensive Production - Put the D on the field way too much without rest. No RB in the backfield on 3rd downs. Chan doesn't make Fitz throw 4 picks, but he does put it in his hands. Wanny - Too stubborn for his own good. Just like Martz, won't blitz or change it up. This team has way too much talent to be run like this. End result, we are an 8-8 team at best. Just like in this game, we win 2 qtrs, lose the other 2 badly. End result, Fitz just needs to go. The team needs to be committed to whoever is in there. Chan needs to shove a boot up Wanny's ass and make him adjust. Chan needs to stop being so tricky and realize who he has on his team. Stop the misdirection, stop the empty backfield on 3rd down, and just do move the ball in small chunks. Good news though, no matter what else happens, we don't need to hold out hope this season. We know everything we need to and the end result...we are not a playoff team

Great TD! Fitz is the man, can't think of a bad thing to say about him!

I wish I could be excited here, but I have no faith in Fitz

Honestly, what else do we need to see from Fitz to cut his ass. I'd rather see TJax figure it out. Hell, trade for Flynn. I'm !@#$ing done with this turd. That throw was everything he is. Pathetic

3 drives and no points. The Pats D is not that good

What the hell is up with having no one in the backfield on 3rd and short twice now? At least make them have to think about it. C'mon Chan, don't be a Martz

Wow

They will go for it on 4th, why wouldn't they?

Good tip, but gronk was wide open

In a way, I'm happy. Now I can stop reading all of these posts about how good we will be this year

A 3 minute, 90 yard drive. This is going to be a reality check game.

Here we go. Just got shredded

I'm sorry, but I agree with them. I'm just hoping it's close. But man do I want to be wrong

Yeah, shame on me for thinking they could be using some strategy. Because teams don't have to adjust for either cj or Fred. Stupid, STUPID Derek....
