These tough games are coming fast and furious for the upstart youngsters that are the 49ers. They played tough but sloppy against the Vikings (a game they should have won by 14), they played great against the Lions. For 3 quarters. Now we face the hottest QB in one of the hardest road venues in the NFL, Arrowhead Stadium.
They lost their best offensive weapon in Marquise Goodwin in that Minn loss, and were down to 3rd string LBs in the Detroit win. The good news is Malcolm Smith will finally play a meaningful down after missing his first 18 games. Even more significant than that is the return of Reuben Foster. So I think the defense rallies.
Which is why I think the 49ers win tomorrow. Yeah, it’s another early start for a west coast team in a hostile environment, against the hottest QB in the NFL in Pat Mahomes, but I think their defense will be their downfall. I think our defense makes more plays against our improved D (and a hopefully healthier Ahkello Witherspoon), so we win.
My concern is what it has been since before training camp started. And that is our pass rush. DeForest Buckner is actually #2 in sacks at 3.5, but the rest of the team is at 1.5. Which sucks. The return of our LBs, and the havoc they bring (I see Foster blitzing) should be able to slow down the Mahomes express.
Forty Niners Forever 
5 penalties for 71 yards at the start of the second quarter. Wow.
Kittle with a little redemption.
Refs are in red today.
about fucking time
Touchdown!
There you go.
Need to use Juice in the passing game more, said that last week too, runs good routes and awesome hands.
Juice got a TD and a PI, more O production than any other player so far. Kittle is potentially awesome, has to quit the drops.
Who wasn’t holding their breath until he secured the ball. Also, wait 20 seconds after the TD for any late flags.
Think Kittle drops that pass?
That’s one of their best plays always,Jusy sneaks out nobody ever picks him up and he scores!! Unreal how many times he’s left alone on that!!
Yeah, teams seem to forget about him in the passing game all the time.
Time for the D to step up. Converting on 2nd and 26 was pretty huge.
So much for that
It’s a game now. We drew blood.
Colbert sniffing the daisies out there.
Looked slow and still hurt last week too.
Zero pass rush yet again. Buckner is being held in check.
Bills 24 Vikings 0. In Minny. LOL
Unreal.
Can’t argue with that.
Pffffffffffffft.
Give the points right back, we have no speed on our D line. No way he should have got away
Non existent pass coverage again.
Just got to stay within a TD at this point. They fold late.
I hope.
