I don't know....onside kick when it's expected is so low that I'm not sure that is horribly stupid. If he makes that kick, I think you have a big increase in your chance of recovering.

Then again, combined with the odds of executing that kick....

Somebody meme the refs laughing at us at the end of the game... WTF was that? Never was a Tomlin hater but these uninspiring performances have gotten old.

Tomlin and Haley are idiots
Until the are shit canned we will continue to watch this type of silly bullshit
The planning and play calling is the worst I have ever seen
TieIng bens hands and poor use if bell
They add no value to this team with thier simpleton bullshit
They want to play attrition football but have no idea how to. No idea of the qualities that type of play needs. And no idea the actual strengths of their stars

If what Gannon just said is true that this abortion of a onside kick has been practiced and approved by Danny Smith than he needs to sit in the corner with the dunce cap

Once again Harbaugh owns Tomlin. Tip your cap to him. But let's appreciate Tomlin!

I would appreciate them a whole lot more if they knew how to coach. Lousy playing calling in the first 3 quarters and too many men on the field? Fire them all!

yup so have I.. that's one of those where it looks genius if It works, quite embarrassing when it doesn't. Still I thank our coaching staff for this one, 2 weeks for "purple week" and they come up with this shit sandwich.

Ben was rusty and out of synch with his receivers. But they did Ben no favors with the horrible play-calling in the first half. Easing into game = losses.

I wonder if practice contributed to that. Said Landry took half the snaps, and Mettlenberg had some, too. Ben was a game time decision.

Of course, you expect more from a vet QB....but 3 weeks off and having to adjust to playing on that knee maybe half the reps wasn't enough to be ready.

The other side is maybe you have to accept it takes Ben up to a game to work back into form...and better to get it out of the way sooner than later - holding off one more week might not change the fact he needs a game to get back into form because he's not going to be 100% for several more weeks.

Yep to all the above. The seams were open all game long but not once were they attacked until midway through the 4th. 3 qtrs + before the light came on and they decided not to attack the 4th rated run D in the league. Inexcusable and completely atrocious coaching and play calling.
