Yeah, the O-Line the last two years has been fucking abysmal. Rather than spend some of our cap room on shoring it up, we better go get a back like Bush, who is constantly "hurt".
And don't forget that Boone, who is actually quite good, is going to be a free agent after this year. And the 49ers typically don't extend their guards for whatever stupid fucking reason.

Boone is certainly better than the shitty ass play on the right side, but he was right about middle of the pack for guards in 2013, whereas he was ranked 3rd in 2012. It's probably going to be a case of him not being worth the money, honestly. I'd rather them spend the cap room on a really good corner and safety. Bethea was slightly above average last season and straight bad this season. Hell, even Reid has looked like shit this year.

I think Kaepernick is absolutely terrified of the Seahawks, and he will have at least 2 turnovers. That Seahawks defense is in his head, and I think we saw what happened to Kaepernick earlier this year once he was totally unsure of himself.

Seattle may have issues on offense, but the 49ers secondary has been shredded several times this season. They simply aren't getting enough push up front to put enough pressure on QB's. I suppose since Seattle is starting a bunch of lineman that used to be TE's and Defensive linemen, the 49ers have some shot at getting pressure back there.

30-3 Seattle
10 points off.

At first I was upset that the Bengals drafted two OTs with their first two picks this draft. And neither of them are starting. But I see these horrible O-lines on these other teams and I feel better about it.

Yeah someday the Dolphins will draft some O line. Seems like it hasn't happened since Jake Long like 200 years ago.

Haha in one of the videos on the NFL site (tried to link it but it's being difficult and i'm lazy, video is titled "Seahawks Marshawn Lynch evades defense" you can clearly hear the 49ers defender say "Wakandan" and then follow it up with a couple "shits". Yay for player mics since I hope it didn't get censored on the tv broadcast, assuming the video came from one of the televised feeds.

Yeah, always thought they were on a very small tape delay to avoid that stuff, but it happens all the time. Pretty sure they just don't care that much.

Well the 49ers played like they didn't want to be there which surprises me since it was Seattle. Seattle defense looked a lot better but I'm not giving that a second thought since it was the 49ers.

He was like #3 last year in ESPN standard scoring according to our fun league..

So ya know, notnever.
Yeah he was actually good last year for fantasy. It's what happens when you get 40-50 yards rushing and the occassional rushing TD. He's been mediocre this year though. Only ran him because Dalton was on Bye.

I wouldn't count the Seahawks out of this season yet.

While the 5th seed seems like a lock to go to whomever gets 2nd place in the NFC South (who saw that coming before the season?), the 6th seed is wide open between the Seahawks, Vikings, and Eagles/Giants(/maybe even Cowboys if Romo gets back soon enough). I doubt they get beyond the Wildcard round, but they aren't dead yet.

(Similarly, in the AFC, your 6th place favorite seems to be... the freaking Jets?!? Man this year is weird.)

I was going to disagree with you about this because neither team (Panthers, Falcons) has really played anyone worth a shit, but then I looked at their remaining schedules and they're ridiculous. Those are some soft fucking schedules.
