game 11 - 49ers vs. Ravens

I've read or heard some of the quotes given by the 49ers, from head coach to players, after yesterday's loss, and they have the right attitude: they'll just have to come back stronger and better.

As expected, yesterday's game was a smash-mouth, in-the-trenches affair, and if that's what you're into, then it didn't disappoint. Me, I prefer more offensive fireworks by the 49ers, but it was not to be. Still, I'm glad it was a regular season game and not an elimination game in the playoffs. It will give the 49ers a chance to remedy what needs to be worked on before they play their remaining games.

For all the disappointment in the loss, fans have to remember where the 49ers are coming from: a 6 - 10 record last season and no playoff appearances for many, many years. Now, they have a coaching staff that is actually taking the team places and instilling a winning culture! They're 9 - 2 for gosh sakes. And it would be wise to recall that even during the Super Bowl championship years, there were regular season losses, games in which the team didn't look like they had to take to win it all. But win it all they did.

Time will tell with this team.
