the hit on Welker by Browner was waaaaay better, and a hell of alot harder... no flag... and Welkers not a puss...

It was a nice pick play by SF so the safety had to come on strong and was just trying to jar the ball loose. Kaepernick could have put a little more zip on the ball instead of a weak toss setting up his receiver for the big hit.

Thanks for the female perspective Eddie. We all log in here to get the feminie perspective. Might want to back down on the HRT you are getting too much estrogen.

Goldson was fined $21K for a hit on Hernandez that wasn't as bad.
It's the "defenseless receiver" rule; the receiver has to have control of the ball and be established before you can hit him.

It sucks.

I'm going to take a different tack. Davis left the game with a concussion and if you look at the replay you will note that he did not get a concussion from hitting his head on the field. The game has changed and will continue to change. Players risking their lives (long-term) for our entertainment reminds me a lot of the Christians vs. the Lions. Wrong then, wrong now.

You much not know much about football. Chancillor never contacted the head.

this is why the nfl sucks anymore..........

bunch of over paid pussies is what the league is driving it to be.

It's the owners who want to protect their investments.

Dont you protect your investments? From earlier discussions with you; I know you dont or wont.

Kam and Vernon are not pussies. Overpaid? Perhaps, but I dont think so. I remember back in Mike Tysons hayday there were questions flying around like how much money would it take for you to go one round with him. Well how much money will it take to play a whole season worth of games with guys like Kam flying around. Kam is probably the most feared safety on any Sunday because he is the size of some D-ends, fast, and smart. I sure as hell would want some serious cash to face him. The players know the risks and they should be compensated for getting lit up like that (penalty or not). The NFL/owners/fans/advertisers give serious consideration to the money they take in and the money they spend. Guys with concussions and other injuries cant play. Injured star players lessons the quality of play, makes games lop sided, potentially makes less money because it seems less competitive for the viewer. Injured players have high medical costs. NFL wants longer season, higher scoring, less injury, make more money.

Stam, a smart guy like you must understand that without the fan, there would be no millions of dollars. Our entertainment is the reason for the league.

Drinking early this morning? Your first statement is a little hard to decipher. How did Davis get a concussion then? Last I heard, you must get contacted in the head to get a concussion.

Prowling the park for young boys again?

Go Sox,
cds

Why am I convinced that it is the one with such thoughts in his head that is the problem? In case you don't understand....that's you, Salmosalar.

If you don't consider the chin to be a part of the head, you're right.
Davis and Kap were spending more time running routes after practices to get on the same page. They started to click and Davis was going to be a bigger part of the O in the Fawks game..until he got his bell rung.

There's a chance Davis won't play in the Cards game either, so Walker will be called on to block more. Celek came into the game after Davis went out and had a couple of good catches.

With Manningham out it's next man up so it's about time to see whether #1 pick A.J.Jenkins can step up. His knock has been he doesn't have the upper body strength to separate from DBs at the line. He has good hands and decent speed though. The Niners have Chad Hall and Ricardo Lockette on the practice squad and they could even work out some veterans this week.

After watching that hit over and over again, I've come to the conclusion that it was a shoulder hit directly on the football. As the football became decompressed, the force pushed VD rearwards with enough additional force that his helmet came forward into Chancler's.

Ruling........clean hit, Dooooood!!

Sorry Hank I think in your age your vision is going. There is space between Davis' chin and Chancillor during that entire video.

After Seahawks safety Kam Chancellor was penalized 15 yards for the hit that knocked 49ers tight end Vernon Davis out of last week's game with a concussion, replays appeared to show the collision wasn't actually helmet-to-helmet on a defenseless receiver. Instead, it seemed like it was a clean play with a shoulder-to-chest hit.

So, a report from PFT saying Chancellor was not fined by the NFL this week for the hit seems completely reasonable.

In the end, the penalty didn't matter to the Seahawks, who blocked a 49ers field goal at the end of that drive and ended up with a 42-13 win.

Meanwhile, Davis is questionable to play this weekend vs. the Cardinals.

You have to protect QB's (when not running) There's only a handful of starting QB's on the planet, nobody want's to watch 2nd and 3rd string QB's playing this game, atleast I don't. ymmv

Whoever thought pink shoes, ear rings, long braids, and "defenseless" would define professional football?

What next?

It's the earrings that get me wonderin'. Maybe they should have cutouts in the helmets so the other players can see the bling.

If someone's earring or hairstyle is enough to ruin your day...your day sucks already. Sorry about that.

Fish on...
