niners win

after the devastating loss of defensive captain fred warner, my faithful heart was heavy going into week 7.  seriously how many injuries to key players must we endure.  luckily, last night we came out without any major injuries and beat the falcons 20-10.  cmc had two rushing touchdowns, and eddy pinero knocked in two long field goals. george kittle was back and it was clear to see he assisted in cmc's big yardage night. off to texas next and hoping to keep up this healthy momentum.

it's been a while since i've been able to post about a niners win and last week's loss really hit HARD. the viks loss was deserved, and we weren't playing our best. i reassured myself that it's still early and the team is still coming together. better to get the cobwebs out early than later in the season. i loved how the defense came out today. fred warner(pictured above) with a pick six. he truly is defensive niner of the season so far. the offense looked better with deebo and kittle back in the mix, but jordan mason is still hitting ground hard and jauna jennings continues his great catches.  so i'm feeling optimistic and hoping warner was resting the second half without any serious injury. it was also nice to watch the game televised nationally.

niners win!

niners were out of the wild card race last weekend, so their win today against the cards was a welcomed surprised. i'm glad the d laid it all out on the line because saleh will likely not be back with us next year. felt like the d-line was going extra to make him proud, especially fred warner.
