Here’s a conversation I had with one of my friends. I thought it was worth sharing: Josh: 49ers won’t fire Singletary (at least until the end of the year). He has Jed York’s backing and (most) of the team’s support. Plus, there’s not an obvious alternative. Will: Sad but true. Josh: I don’t know how [...]

joshherndon Good teams find a way to win. Bad teams find a way to lose. -The guy sitting next to me. Games like this aren’t good for a man’s blood pressure. HAPPY! DEPRESSED! HOPEFUL! RELIEVED! STRESSED! It was an incredible football game and I’m very fortunate to have gone. But only one thing needed to happen [...]
Reaction from the Couch: 49ers 6, Seahawks 31
September 12th, 2010 joshherndon My initial thoughts on an awful game by the San Francisco 49ers against the Seattle Seahawks. I liked that Singletary went for it on 4th down– all three times. It showed guts. And confidence, however flawed it might have been. It worked twice. The other time? Alex Smith. Crabtree looked lost. After missing the entire [...]

1 Comment »20 NFL Predictions in 2010
August 8th, 2010 joshherndon As the 2010 NFL season is upon us, I’d like to make a couple predictions. Some are more outlandish than others. Regardless, here they are: Bret Farve will retire. For real this time NY Jets dethrone the Patriots by taking the AFC East …but Brady still has an incredible year (in the final year of [...]
"I Told You So"
April 23rd, 2010 joshherndon Nearly 2 months ago on March 2nd I predicted that the San Francisco 49ers would select an Offensive Tackle and a Guard in the 1st round. I was right! And I was at the official 49ers’ draft part to witness it. Now, if only I could get a million bucks a year for my gift… [...]

My Mock Draft
April 13th, 2010 joshherndon Predicting a draft is like predicting the NCAA championship– it never works out like your thought. But that doesn’t stop me (or millions of others) from filling out my bracket? Nope. And it sure won’t stop me from my 2010 NFL Mock Draft (with predicted trades). St. Louis Rams: Sam Bradford, QB Detroit Lions: Ndamukong [...]
My 49ers Mock Draft [And 10 Reasons]
March 2nd, 2010 joshherndon Here’s my top 10 reasons the 49ers will select a Right Tackle with their 13th pick in Bryan Bulaga, Trent Williams or Bruce Campbell and a Left Guard with their 17th pick in Mike Iupati. Head Coach Singletary wants to run, and he couldn’t in 2009 because of the offensive line. The 49ers were ranked [...]

January 21st, 2010 joshherndon Mock Drafts before the NFL Combine, Super Bowl, and College’s Senior Bowl is like throwing darts. With a blindfold. Into the wind. Without knowing where the target is. Yet, I digress. Mel Kiper (via Mike Sando) of ESPN’s Insider recently predicted the 49ers would select 13. Trent Williams from Oklahoma University, Offensive Tackle 16. Earl [...]

January 19th, 2010 joshherndon I’m not a fan of Bret Farve– but this began far before his “I’m retired. Nevermind” x2 routine. Think back to “The Mud Bowl”, January 4, 1997. The 49ers were beat out by Farve and Lambeau’s subfreezing temperatures. But Mark Batterson’s “Leadership Lessons From Brett Farve” was a good post. Here’s a couple of my [...]
