49ers forget to show up in 41-0 beat down from the Chiefs.
If Damon Huard keeps playing this well, the Kansas City Chiefs won’t have a quarterback crisis while waiting for Trent Green to get back—they’ll have a quarterback controversy once he does.
Huard played almost flawlessly in a 41-0 rout of San Francisco on Sunday, hitting 13 of his first 15 passes for 152 yards and two touchdowns while Kansas City seized a 24-0 halftime lead en route to its first shutout in almost four years.
Green was on the sidelines for the first time after sustaining a severe concussion three weeks ago. Days after doctors cleared him to drive, he was cajoling his teammates and even appeared to be suggesting plays for his backup, who’d hardly done anything besides carry a clipboard for six seasons until Green was knocked unconscious in the Sept. 10 season opener.
Huard hit 18 of 23 passes for 208 yards and two touchdowns.
All the while, Green huddled with Huard and coaches after every series, sometimes even stepping onto the field with coaches as they consulted during timeouts.
Dante Hall scored Kansas City’s final touchdown on a 60-yard punt return, giving him 11 touchdown kick returns in his career.

49ers D has a way of making backup QBs look like starters.
There is nothing good to take out of that game. Nothing.
Raiders are going to win this week. The hopes of the 49ers being 3-2 are looking much more like 1-4 in a season that could very quickly spiral downwards after these back to back embarrasments.
I hope they bounce back, I really hate the Raiders and a loss would cement them at the bottom of the 32 teams for the majority and probably rest of the season.

49ers, raiders. two teams that got shut out. the difference is the raiders got shut out by the ravens. we got shut out by a defense that was ranked 25th last season.

WOW I think the team decided to take a early bye week…
They just got intersepted as I’m typing this…great… This team is really making hard for fans to be faithfull to them… maybe being a 49ers fan is the new religion… you REALLY have to believe they’ll make progress in this decade….go niners
2 hours after the fact.NO BODY show up to play this game… I’m tired of this AWFUL first half performances (this game was the whole 4 quarters…) our coaching staff looks like they came from a Denny’s restaurant oh wait no that’s the raiders, If next week a cordinator that used to work for Dennis put up 21 points in our defense, I guess we better start looking at mel’s kipper top 10 board to pick up the best defender player available… I really hope the lions and the bears do us a favor and win today… What I’m saying the LIONS

We cant pass the ball, we cant catch the ball, when we hand the ball, we drop the ball. Our defense hates the ball, so they never tackle any one that has a ball. What should we do? I know, maybe we should play Madden against the other teams then we’ll have a chance at 8-8.

For the love of everything good, PLEASE SOMEONE FIRE MIKE NOLAN!!
It was bad enough fans had to settle for a team characterized as “rebuilding.” It was worst for the team to be projected for a playoff run 2-3 years from now by most of the fans in here. Now, because Mike Nolan called the 49ers a second-half team to cover his ass for a dumb call of not going for it on 4th and 1 last week, ALL OF YOU ARE EATING IT UP! So we are a second half team now, are we supposed to settle for the team playing like crap in the first half? This is ridiculous. Nolan is another Erickson in disguise! The man can draft, I will give him that and only that. On the field, he SUCKS. He had 1 week to prepare for this game, what the hell was he doing???
Then in the game one thing pissed me off more than anything. It was the 4th quarter and we had 4th down and inches to go and…...we punted? We were down by over 30 points…. and we punted? I do not understand, if you are TRYING TO WIN A GAME, it should not matter how much you lose by so long as you try to win. How does cutting your losses help you? Nolan did this all of last year too. I know I was gonna hold my tongue against this guy during the regular season, but GOODNESS GRACIOUS PLEASE SOMEONE FIRE HIS ASS!!

Head coach MJ, calm down. I never see teams going for it when they are down by 30 in the fourth quarter. Most teams just want the game to end.

Haha, well damn no one wants to be shutout. Use the rest of the game as a learning experience or at least show the fans who are in that stadium and watching on TV (THE ONES WHO PAY THEIR SALARIES) that they are trying! Shit, that was horrific! Maybe you’re right, Nolan did want the game to end, but the players did not (which you can see if you watch the game, many of them got quite angry.) Nolan wants this team to suck, YES, I said it! He wants it to gradually get better while he rules from the sidelines. (Okay, that last part may be a bit far, maybe to Barlow-like even, but you all saw what happened today.)

for the dumb ass who wrote ” niners for life” Where have you being the last 10 years to call anyone a fair weather anyone a fair weather 49ers fan its ridiculous we’ve being under a tsunami for the last 8 years I guess you mean that 4-12 seasons last year got many people in the bandwagon or maybe that 2-14 two years ago. Last time we were a superbowl contender was in 1998, last time we were in the playoff was in 2002 if someone will jump in any bandwagon the 49ers would be the last team they will jump on, when you have teams like the patriots that came out no where and won 3 superbowls in the last five years. Haven’t you notice that we are the punch line of the league along with the faiders. 4-12 its not good enough 6-10 its not good enough, the 49ers where an elite franchise for decades and if we have dumb ass like you settling for a mediocre team and coaches things will never change. Look at the moves we made this off season, we could it had Hutchinson from the seachickens if we had throw some money but instead we got Allen who was great 10 years ago, Hutchison is about to reach his prime. We could it try to go after Bentley the best FA available this off season but we settle and gamble for injure prone Newberry who has not play a full season since 2002 and its now in IR. We let Perterson and Carter go that was fine but we never really try to go after of the premier linebacker free agents available when you know our defense suppose to play the 3-4 we let two starters go?, we finally had cap money and we did not get anyone besides Bryant that has made an impact to this team. We went after some crappy FA for the defensive line who did not even made the team. Building through the draft its fine but we still need leadership on the field from veterans. 4-12 it’s not good enough, not going in 4th and inches when we are down over 20 points is not good enough, punting on 4th down when you are getting blown out is not got enough specially when we all know that 49ers was the premier franchise for over 20 years
