the league's best pass defense and a top 10 run defense on the road after a short turnaround.

Point is well taken but feel the 49ers had an exception game rather than what you'd normally expect as you saw against the Seahawks.

The passing game is a question mark outside of this performance, but the errr Seahawks didn't have league leading rushing, passing defense & rushing defense. They themselves held the 49ers to 6.1 passing and 13 points.

With Thursday night games, outside of the Dallas/NY Giants (since starters should have been well rested) home teams are 5-1. The one road team that won was NY Giants in Carolina. I'm not sure if that is consistent w/ regular home records but the sample size is small anyways. Either way, I imagine having a Thursday night game after a Sunday is a distinct disadvantage for the road team.

too many dropped passes that killed drives, too much Frank Gore (dude`s been a Hawk killer since he first suited up in the red and gold). Harbaugh, though, is the biggest fucking drama queen in the history of the NFL. Complete fucking clown.
