Terrible Lose Against Seattle

After four weeks into the regular season, the 49ers have lost their second game. The game on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks, the Niners weren't playing to their full potential. The game wasn't too exciting, especially since the Niners didn't score a single touchdown(49ers, 3 and Seahawks, 23). They have lost a few players due to injuries, which may have cost them the last two games.

Especially, they have lost their starting quarterback, Alex Smith, and it has been determined that he will not return until October 21, against the NY Giants. After being tackled hard on the first quarter on Sunday's game, Smith injured his right shoulder and couldn't continue to play. His replacement, Trent Dilfer, didn't perform too well during the entire game. Therefore, the next game on Sunday, against the Baltimore Ravens, will be a tough game to win without Alex Smith.

Just when they had a great start in the beginning of the season, it seems like they are now falling apart. So what is expected from the 49ers in the next few games? Definitely, they need to start performing better and start winning games in order to have a chance to make it to the playoffs. Although they are 2 for 2, Niners' fans are still staying positive, and hoping that their team will come back up and start winning again.

I am hopeful that the 49ers will pull through.. even though they lost some key players!

Maybe the 49ers should take some plays from Stanford and their underdog victory over USC. People keep talking about it. It speaks of the notion that anything can happen if you have quality athletes and individuals playing at the top of their game.

The idea always seems to be the same when there are injuries or problems, and your favorite team is no longer the favorite to win. They are the underdog, and you want them to win...or at least beat the spread.

I like how the video is complimented by a upbeat, mood enhancing audio track.

That footage looks like it is yours, as if your were at the game. Very cool. I think you, the niner faithul, are in for a long season. It's too bad too, because the defense looks really strong. I don't know what the bigger problem is: the offensive line or the play-callling.

It's cool to know there are some many female football fans. I'm saying this as a Pittsburgh Steeler fan, the team with largest female fan base in the NFL.
