49er Vernon Davis on Thursdays game: "We will destroy (Chicago)."
S.F. Chronicle, 11-12-09

"I think we can destroy them," the 49ers tight end said Tuesday of the Bears defense. "I think we can destroy their front. I don't see anything spectacular about their front line."

Davis, so often a flash point on this team, did not back down from what he said a day earlier, but he did try to soften the impact of his unequivocal statements.

"I wasn't trying to stir anything up. I wasn't saying it to put anybody down," Davis said Wednesday. "I was being confident in myself and my teammates. I'm just being confident. I think we need a spark. As a captain, I'm here to motivate my team, get them fired up to play."

9. Of loudmouths, of course.
But not of Terp loudmouths. His mascot is also cold-blooded, but it's the Moccasins of Tennessee-Chattanooga.

Also, he's from the same small town as one of our very best Duers!

3. He's right about their line
Arizona came into Chicago with the worst rushing offense and came out with 182 rushing yards. Also went from 3.0 ypc to 3.8 ypc for the season.

5. Well they play Thursday
I wish I could watch the game but since it's on NFL Network which I don't have I can't.

6. Sports Bar?
I was doing that last year for a while. Nurse a beer or two for a half then switch to something non-alcoholic. The game is televised in the Bay Area so I get to see it from the comfort of my own couch (and drink as much beer as I damn well please).

7. We have the NFL-HD Network here! Verizon FIOS. I'll probably catch
the second half after my wife goes to bed!

8. My guess is this game will be so boring you'll be joining her
after a few minutes.

14. Man did you call that one right.
What a snoozer. Sure it was interesting at the very end when the Bears had a chance for the win, but the rest of the game was just boring as hell.

11. That depends on what the meaning of the word "destroy" is
if by "destroy" you mean "hang on by the skin of your teeth to win by 4 even though you got five picks", then yeah, we destroyed 'em. :eyes:

12. Not exactly a comet striking the Earth, but we Niners fans are hungry and will eat anything
But destroy the Bears? When the defense goes in and picks off five passes, the offense owes them the courtesy of scoring more than 10 points.
