Which has more people on it? You be the judge. In more fun news, Isaac Guerendo is out ‘a few weeks’ with a shoulder injury, Kevin Givens is out ‘a while’ with a pec injury. Colton McKivitz missed practice Saturday, prompting the signing of Isaiah Prince, recently of the Denver Broncos, and fueling speculation that McKivitz is injured. Granted, this was reported by Grant (what, me asshole?) Cohn, so there’s that. Word should come out today, but . . . . . . .

Still haven’t heard anything. But seriously, what the actual fuck is going on? We were the most injured team last year, but that happened DURING the season. Now, we can’t make it from the locker room to the practice field without losing 2 or 3 guys.

I thought the giant leaps and bounds in training and medicine and the like were supposed to help players get and stay healthy. And all these guys stayed in shape during the offseason. But we sure are getting decimated, Maybe the good old days of 6 preseason games and playing one’s self back into game shape may be the way to go.

Or maybe we should hire actual trainers with NFL experience as opposed to NHL guys.

PS Missed the hall of fame game and the triumphant return of Trey Lance. If you read the interwebs, you’d think he won a Super Bowl and not a meaningless game vs Deetroit’s 3rd string defense. Amazingly there are articles about how Shanahan wasn’t the right coach, and the mismanagement yadda yadda yadda, and yeah, while pieces of that could be true, the fact of the matter is, Lance got hurt too much and was pretty much lapped by Brock Purdy.

Shit, even Sam Darnold beat him out. Lance may not have had things line up for him, but when Purdy got his shot, he kicked ass and left no doubt as to what should happen going forward.

    Purdy played football games in college while Lance barely registered any.

    Might want to start there when you evaluate spending multiple Draft picks on a QB maybe?

    Total whiff in that regard.

    Yeah, once again our injuries start piling up and we haven’t even played a game yet. What also bothers me is that we have signed and let go of at least 20 players that we weren’t gonna keep anyway. To me that shows we are a team in disarray. This fucking year already looks like it’s gonna suck. I had such high hopes too.

      I had really hoped this season would be a pleasant escape from what’s really going on in the world.

    It is kinda unsettling that they get fringe guys and simply toss them aside.

    I mean, Amari Cooper could be a solid get. Even if for a few games. But they sign no-name guys that they release a week later.

    Roster turnover for the sake of just putting bodies on the field.

    Pointless.

    Am I remembering correctly, didn’t the Niners cancel last year’s scrimmage game against Denver because of so many injuries they couldn’t field a team?

    They announced they have cut the scrimmage down to one day instead of the two that was planned.

    Here we go again with a ton of injuries. This is not generally happening league wide, yes there are some teams also injured but the Niners have this issue more than most.

    Let’s get to the bottom of why and fix it.

      Shanny doesn’t want to face the defectors in FA either.

      • 12th Man's avatar 12th Man says:

        Yeah probably so NJ but 2 years in a row against Denver the Niners have been so injured they have cut short or canceled the scrimmage game and that’s with a buttload of first and second year young draft picks and all the vets being in camp for the first time in years.

        How can they keep running out of players with 90 of them on the roster?

        Injuries are a part of football but something seems way off on the injury front with this franchise, constantly.

        Isabella stopped by for a quick injury too 12th.

        See a pattern here?

      Of course I don’t know the real reason for letting him go but I have a feeling this one will come back and bite us or at least show how stupid we were.

  8. unca_chuck's avatar unca_chuck says:

    They’ve signed and released about 60 players so far. CB Eli Apple is the latest guy on the yo-yo string as we signed DL Michael Dwumfour and released Eli.

    Not really paying attention too much to other teams, but this seems crazy.

    In the end I suppose it really won’t matter as the roster is finalized, but shit, this is madness.

    And hey, we have a game in a couple days!!!

    I guess I should put the preseason games on my list of games, jst so I know. The HOF game kinda snuck up on me. I woulda like to see Lance play.
