my voice is shot, I'm cold, wet, exhausted, hungry,and miserable
glad I didn't pay for the tix 
that was brutal
F%^$ 
there goes the first round bye and homefield 
SF has a really good defense and they showed up last night
too late for our comeback, showed a lot of fight though
very frustrating |

WOW
I didn't think SF was that good, and to think how many points they left on the field in the 1st half, especially the exchange from center to the kid at quarterback.

lots of mental errors on both sides of the ball. special teams not so special. secondary had a bad night. niner's are a very good team- we'll see them again in no. the fake punt was killer. #3 seed ain't bad- i think the bye is overated, only good thing is healing, but you can loose your edge.

Historical statistics say otherwise. I was listening on the SportsHub a while back and they were going over Superbowl winners with/without a bye week and the numbers were staggeringly in favor of teams that only have to win 3 playoff games as opposed to 4.
I think the bye week is huge for recovery, rest and mental fatigue. |

50/50 the past 10 years..... 5 teams w/ a bye won the superbowl and 5 teams without it have won the superbowl |

Thanks! I was trying to find the numbers but couldn't. I stand corrected. |

It was a great comeback attempt and an exciting game to watch but in fact we got our butt kicked last night. They owned us through 3 quarters. Obviously the wet cold football was hard for both teams to hang on to . Turn overs always hurt. Oh well , got to look ahead , does no good to look back at such a disasterous performance.. Maybe we can learn something from the films that will help us in the playoffs.

I did't want to go into Denver. That senerio scares me. I had a bad feeling after the opening series.

niners had at least 5 turnovers too, maybe more, they just got lucky and got ball. Not saying Pats play was good. They dug a big hole and deserved to get beat

Going back farther it starts to skew towards the Bye matters.....Back in the days of the Dallas Dynasty and such.....just lately its been evening out
