San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk was eligible to return in Week 5. There was cautious optimism that it would happen after preseason videos surfaced of Aiyuk running routes at about 25 percent. That was in August.

These are two teams that have played 154 times and reached […]

The San Francisco 49ers were rather quiet in free agency this offseason, letting several veterans walk, while not signing any player to a deal worth more than $5.25 million per year. Instead, the goal was to rely on and develop the team’s younger talent as they cleaned the books in what seemed like a ‘bridge’ […]

The 49ers’ decision not to make a swing for a pass rusher on trade deadline day last week raised some eyebrows, with San Francisco unwilling to pay a premium to boost a defensive line clearly in desperate need of help. Last Sunday’s 42-26 defeat to the Los Angeles Rams served as an illustration of why, […]

It’s usually doom and gloom after a loss. The finger-pointing among fans is non-stop, the playoffs shouldn’t be discussed, and somebody needs to be fired.

Sunday’s loss to the Los Angeles Rams wasn’t completely unexpected for the San Francisco 49ers, but man, was it deflating at times, given the lack of resistance from the defense. The 49ers’ defense actually generated one more pressure than the 15 against the Giants, but the back seven had a tough time holding up in […]
