Jennings doesn’t have a single drop this season. Dude sees like 2 targets a game. He constantly pancakes dudes in the run game and when he does get the ball he makes plays like this. So underrated.

Worked for a huge dairy brand for a number of years. Ice cream base is pasteurized, blast chilled and then extruded before being capped, wrapped and put in the freezer. No way that frog survives the journey whole like that. Had to have jumped in on the line before lidding.
Trey Lance called every single rookie after they were drafted and yet people still question whether he has the required leadership qualities of a QB1 🤔🧐
His last point was his best point. Montana and Young had Walsh, Rice Owens, Clark, Craig, etc.. and yet nobody questions their elite status. So why do we discount what Purdy does because he has Shanahan, Deebo, Aiyuk, Kittle and CMC?
"Brock Purdy became the only QB in 49ers history to have a perfect passer rating, when throwing more than 20 passes. That's special."

on if Purdy silenced his doubters, aka
@getnickwright
:
I saw Shanahan near the facility the other day and in passing i asked, “how do you feel with everyone doubting Lance?” And he kinda laughed and said, “that’s exactly how i want it right now”.
NFL on notice…
Kyle saw every receiver not named Jennings get bodied vs man coverage in the Super Bowl and then drafted the WR who graded best vs man coverage in college.
49ers will adjust their meeting schedule this week to allow for Shanahan to be in the “majority” of defensive meetings in addition to his presence in all offensive meetings. 🤔
The leash tightens for Wilks.
He understands the assignment.
Kyle Pitts:
"My biggest priority now is to beat the Saints because it’s the last game and they’re a divisional opponent and it’s the Saints."
Purdy is a rookie. The last pick of the draft. I literally expected him to be on the p squad all season. When Jimmy got hurt I really thought the season might be lost. Yet here we are confident going into the NFCCG. If you are still not satisfied with Purdy, check urself lol fr.
All i can think about is Shanahan’s first year with RG3 and how bad RG3 looked in the preseason and then week 1 came and Shanahan unleashed the offense he built for him and RG3 went OFF. Hoping the same is true for Lance.
Everyone wanted to fire Kyle for his “mismanagement” of BA and all he did was coach him to be an all-pro. BA’s beef was never with Kyle. It was with Wes Welker.
Kyle Shanahan on Brandon Aiyuk being named an All-Pro:
“So happy for BA because I know how disappointed he was he didn’t get selected for the Pro-Bowl… But the All-Pro is the real one. I was just so happy he got that.”
Here is the reality of the Wilks situation. Kyle was finding himself overly involved in the defensive game plan. Including in games. Often making the half time adjustments or real time with Wilks via headset. Lynch told Mooney to follow DK. Fred was changing looks in the huddle.
I’ll never understand “fans” personal hatred toward athletes. Especially Purdy who doesn’t talk shit, is so humble, and has one of the best underdog stories this century. I’ll also never understand how someone could wish severe injury to another person. Garbage behavior.
Wilks seems to have flipped Huf and Gipson’s roles from last year. Huf has been playing more free and Gip has been playing more strong down near the line and it has absolutely destroyed the backend and blitz packages. This guy really came in and fucked it all up lol
Brock Purdy has played behind one of the worst OLs in football. Last week they played in the rain, he was under heavy pressure and had no Deebo. He admittedly looked rusty (or affected by the rain) but when the team needed him, he led a game winning drive. Respect it.
Breaking: Trey Lance is expected to start in tomorrow’s game vs the Bears despite the unwavering certainty of the contrary by Lobs, AD49ers, and the former Jets Janitor.
If I’m the 49ers I trade for Tyrod Taylor and let him run the offense Kyle built for Lance this season. Send Jimmy to the Giants in return if he okays it. Kyle and Jimmy do not get along (understandably so) and the best thing is to get Jimmy out of that locker room.
Just say you don’t want a black QB. I’m gettin sick and tired of the BS hot takes about Lance but Mac and Lawrence get none of it. Give him the same respect and grace you give the other ones cuz we all know the real reason you’re not.
You will see reports of the offense struggling today. Two things to keep in mind..
1. Defense is always further ahead than the offense in training camp.
2. The 49ers defense looks better than I’ve ever seen them. Front to back this is the best defense since 2012.

This isn’t true and please don’t spread misinformation. COVID-19 is an enveloped virus and any alcohol based sanitizer is incredibly effective - just as effective as soap. You can use either, just please use something.
This narrative is lazy and just social media rhetoric.
Here’s other coaches records for context..
McVay: 3-25
Harbaugh: 4-21
Belichick: 4-25
Those are just 3 random ones picked. You could do this with 99% of coaches.
This is what happens when you don't have an elite quarterback. I think it's more that than Kyle Shanahan being a bad coach.
Either way, not a great look on Shanahan.
We've especially seen during their three game losing streak, that when not playing from ahead and not in
I’m not gonna lie… i think 49ers would rather have Cooper coming off a 1300 yard season with pennies left on his contract, and a 2nd rounder and a 5th rounder to restock their aging roster than pay Aiyuk.
That stings.
Mike Silver’s source is Rich Scangarello and the “hot scoop” he’s dishing is from last year as Lance was adjusting his whole throwing motion to compensate for his injured finger. Lance never missed a rep all of OTAs and has been training in SoCal with no issues. I’ve seen it.
@David_Leavitt
I enjoy following you, but this is the type of media fear mongering that needs to stop. Nobody is launching a nuclear war. Not even Putin. He wants power, land and resources and knows he’ll have none of that if the world is obliterated by nuclear war. You should really delete it.
@travishend4577
@KurtBenkert
You mean, it’s a far stretch to believe the guy who created a bounty system to injure opposing players was trying to bait his QB into a team infraction so they could save $250MM? lol
I will no longer discuss Jimmy G and what he did or didn’t do vs what Trey can do/will do/can’t do, whatever. In a couple weeks Jimmy will no longer be on the team. I thank him for what he did do for the franchise and I wish him luck on his next team, but I’m done now. Moving on.

@ShannonSharpe

@ShannonSharpe
not only is Purdy ranked 1st in yards per completion but he is 1st in the NFL in air yards per attempt amongst qualifying QBs. You washed bro 😂
Interesting nugget from 49ers defensive player. Why are 49ers so great at making 2nd half adjustments on D? Kyle Shanahan. Shanahan apparently spends first couple mins of 1/2 time or before 1/2 time w/DC detailing what the opposing offense is doing and how to stop it. DC executes
Steelers fans getting so hyped at the idea of BA coming over and completely ignoring that their QB will either be Wilson or Fields and their OC is Arthur Smith is so hilarious to me. Your passing game will not be a focus.
3 dominoes i expect to fall early into training camp that are all somewhat tied together:
1. Jimmy G traded (will be excused from camp until traded)
2. Deebo extension
3. Bosa extension
Bonus: I have heard rumblings of a Jimmie Ward extension as well.
This team could win a game 50-0 with Purdy throwing 5 TDs and no picks and people would STILL find something to complain about lol. I’m done engaging with ppl on this app. Y’all annoying af.
Idk who needs to hear this, but on a team that had 4 different players go over 1,000 AP yards, we’ll be okay IF Aiyuk does get traded. I love him, but no WR not named Justin Jefferson is worth over $28MM

@PrisonPlanet
You’ve cherry picked a few names but there are over 150 different people attending the meetings from government to finance to healthcare; private and public sector. They largely use the conference to discuss areas of improving systems between Europe and NAM. Stop fear mongering.
Sorry last tweet - Lance looks good. If you’re just reading his comp % or his picks i could see how you’d be worried. It’s not because he’s playing poorly. There have been a lot of drops from WRs, some really great plays by the defense and Lance is running for his life w/ that OL
Barrows was on KNBR and called Purdy the arm to Shanahan’s brain and that is the most accurate interpretation of what we’ve seen the last 6 games. Purdy runs Kyle’s system exactly how Kyle wants his QB to run it. They are simpatico.
After years of calling gadget plays to protect his QB, that’s not how Kyle wants to call games anymore. 23% of Mac’s passing yards came off screens and RPOs with the best talent in college football around him. Kyle would have to call games the way he does for Jimmy. Hard pass.
If Lance balls out today and leads the 49ers to a huge win over a 4-0 cardinals team and Kyle still hands the keys back to Jimmy G, then it will be time to question Kyle’s decision making as a HC. This feels more like posturing as the trade deadline looms.

Kickoff:
#49ers
rookie QB Trey Lance gets the start, but it could be for just one week as entrenched starter Jimmy Garoppolo nears a return.
Go back and watch weeks 1-5. The issues that are exposing the 49ers on defense right now were there in those weeks as well. Poor coverage, bad run defense. 49ers offense was so explosive it didn’t matter and teams had to abandon the run. Wilks be frauding.

Hey bro thanks so much for helping out at the orphanage, the kids loved all your amazing songs! Also, the incredibly generous $2,000,000 donation you made was so kind. Even though you make that in like a week you successful bastard you!!
A lot of new spin today in the media put out by Steelers camp but the reality is nothing has changed. Steelers last offer is still on the table. Lynch/Kyle won’t accept it. 49ers last offer on the table for Aiyuk is still on the table. Aiyuk won’t accept. New spin, old news.
#49ers
new Assistant Linebacker and Defensive Quality Control Coach, KJ Wright:
“To be able to put that coaching hat on, get that whistle, create drills, really bring out the best in anybody I come into contact with, I’m ready. I’m ready to rock and roll.”
Wilks is not a scapegoat. I firmly believe that even if the 49ers won the SB he wouldn’t be retained. You can tell from week 1 the defense was out of sorts. The reality is players weren’t bought into him either. He wasn’t a good fit and there are about 4-5 great DC options avail.
Great week of adjustments for Wilks. Spent that BYE week getting right. I’ve been super critical but he put Huf back at strong by the LOS. Yanked Oliver outta there. Stopped his exotic blitz packages and simplified coverages. Great leadership on the sideline too. Credit where due
I’ve seen nothin but Philly fans celebrating other teams’ players getting injured and wishing for more injuries to other teams’ players. All i gotta say is:
Lance having a bounce back day today despite a bad pick to Warner.
This OL is in serious trouble.
Kinlaw looks healthy.
Aiyuk is gonna have 1500 yards.
this is a joke about a CEO who couldn't keep a team together, not the people who got laid off
getting laid off sucks, but having to lay people off instead of generating more topline *might* mean *you* suck
This has long been the narrative. The reality is the 49ers DID plan for this early. They had a deal done and Aiyuk was set to come in and sign it and literally a day or two before they took pen to paper, the Amon-Ra deal news broke and halted everything and it all fell apart then
"If [the 49ers] had better timing, they could have gotten in front of this and given [Aiyuk] a deal sooner...They waited too long! Timing!"

@PatrickAKarlson
Not saying I am picking a side one way or the other.. but saying she is a full decade younger when they're both in their 70s is not an argument lmao
This is your friendly reminder that the 49ers offense was significantly worse without Deebo on the field. Yall are trippin. Team will give Aiyuk a new contract and there is an easy path to create $40MM in cap space. 2025 will be an interesting off season when Brock gets paid.
Hear me out but the reason why Steelers/Niners haven’t come to an agmt yet is they want a 2nd and a player like Pickens. Steelers have been reluctant. So what if they trade Aiyuk for a 2 and a 4 and flip those picks to the Raiders for Adams? 🤔
@Bradleyruns
@RSherman_25
Let’s be honest. There were no 12s UNTIL Sherm and that legion of boom brought the city a championship. Seahawks didn’t have fans until 2013.
Fwiw Floyd and Gross-Matos are significant upgrades over Young and Ferrell. As much as i thought Ferrell was really coming on at the end of last year, Matos is better vs the run and has way more upside as a pass rusher. Not the sexiest names, but edge got way better. Now need DTs

@JayMooreNFL
I’ve come to realize that people on Twitter only know the prospects the media hypes up and the 49ers never draft those players because they have their own criteria they grade off of and every draft Twitter is in shambles and the 49ers continue to make deep playoff runs lol
