The coach in SF sure is trying though

Shanahan has lots of really good pieces. They have been drafting well like us also. Will be interesting to see if Purdy was just lucky or if he can actually lead his team

No but he made broken plays alot of fun

I think Hurts has the better run game over Mahomes,but Mahomes passing is way above Hurts game

They have been literally giving away their picks.

I'm sure... but let me ask... the guys that were chasing Fran... compared to the guys that chase Mahomes...be honest, it's not really close athletically is it?

It's part of the reason the RB loses sizzle in today's game.   I remember the RB being clearly the best athlete on the field back in the day.   Now you got 11 freak athletes on defense that cover so much ground and make up for a missed tackle etc.

After getting back the 2024 fourth round pick from Dallas...  it makes the CMC trade...cost a 2nd, 3rd, and 4th in 2023.

Meanwhile they gave away THREE 1st rounder and a 3rd for Lance....for nothing.

They have cap issues coming up ...  just an awfully run organization. 

Tark did it cause he had to - QB's got hit back then. He also ran more side to side, not for yardage.

True,but I loved watching him dodge players

" 2,4,6,8 who do we appreciate,38,38,38"

No punter yet,really sad they let this go so long. Needed addressed right after the SB

Evidently Elliot really likes Siposs as his holder

Reagor costs us yet again and he didn't even have to fail at it. He is on the pats PS now. Excellent first round pick(NOT),but at least he was the last bad pick(hopefully)

Didn't know that affected us = bummer! Reagor now on Pats' PS

Right.... this is the reason why Sipposs is here.   Look at the difference in Elliott after he struggled a little bit there.

Nah.... he had to achieve a few bench marks. ...not just make the team.   Was a real outside shot at the 4th.

Once you get a team established and on a winning track,if you keep the players coming(I mean talented ones) you can be a "good coach" for quite awhile. Saw that with Belicheat(Brady and Mahomes make anyone look good and Hurts is ascending to that now). I guess Peyton Manning in Indy was all skilled coaching

You guys don’t pay close enough attention. AR made it super easy for Mahomes against us that second half. Ran basically the same play twice with wide open receivers catching TDs. We doubled Kelce both times and left the guy coming around behind him all alone. He was having Mahomes dice us up by quick easy passes. Our near record setting pass rush nullified. Our coverage consistently known under Gannon to give up the easy underneath stuff all day. Mahomes wasn’t working bunches of magic against us. He had a key run or two. Just accurate throws. 

Our pass rush was a very important part of our game - 70 sacks! Guys couldn't take off on that field.

That particular play hard to defend, don't cover Kelce and see what happens there.
