Are the Niners crumbling ?

You might just want to wait until Manningham and Crabtree are back before making your final judgment on this matter.

Glad to see Alex is having success in KC, BTW.

I don't think Crabtree could even make the Seahawk's roster. If he did he would probably be third string.

No doubt.

I find it funny that the 49ers are going back to " smash mouth " football and using CK as a game manager , I guess the grand experiment is over and they simply got a younger version of Alex Smith .... Their stat lines are very similar, all except the wins . Smith just needed a better coach .

Well, I just don't know. I've been of the opinion that injuries to wide receivers might have something to do with it, but who knows? You could be correct. Might just be coincidence.

No doubt.

I disagree. As much as I hate to say it, but the way Crabtree played in '12, I'd take him over Rice.

1) Harvin
2) Tate/Crabtree
3)Baldwin
4) Rice
5) Kearse

Niners are possibly after Josh Gordon

I wouldn't take Crabs over any of the five Seahawk recievers you just mentioned. I think Kearse is just as good as Crabs if not better already in his career. He has looked great for an undrafted free agent. Crabs never looked that good his first couple years. I remember 9er fans saying they made a mistake drafting Crabs.

Based on the numbers,

Rice 109/204 53.4% 15.2 ypc
Crabs 260/427 60.9% 12.9 ypc

Crabtree would be of our starting 3. He has all the attributes to be a #1/2 WR.
Size/Speed/Quickness/Hands.

I'm assuming you're Huskie fan.. Anyways, right now, Kearse is nowhere near Crabtree. It's premature to say that this early on in Kearse's career. Look at Crabtrees rookie numbers. He didn't play until late Oct due to a hold out his rookie year and still had a solid year catching passes from Alex Smith.

Kearse has caught 5 passes man. How can you say that Crabtree "never looked this good his first couple years"? You can't compare 5 catches in spot duty to Crabtrees two seasons.

Well, my "no doubt" was sarcastic. So we agree.

I figured as much. As I was just replying to the most recent post.
