2.6K349ers surprises, Part I: players who’ve exceeded expectations
It seems like the bulk of the coverage about the 49ers up to this point has centered on who isn’t on the field (I’m guilty of this as well). But we’re almost halfway through the season, and the bye week seems like a good “unofficial halfway mark” where we can make judgments about the players […]

Next men up: four 49ers who could be called on in Denver
Jeff Fisher and Gregg Williams shouldn’t be allowed to work together. The dirtiness of Fisher’s teams, combined with Williams’ known bounty history, should make such an arrangement illegal in the United States, Great Britain, Canada, and wherever else NFL football may be played. The 49ers got a taste of Rams Ball last night, which generally […]

3.1KMore evidence that Perrish Cox is on the outside to stay
The 49ers are currently the No. 2 defense in the league in total yards allowed, and they’re allowing the fourth-lowest number of passing yards per game (205.6) and the third-lowest QB rating (75.7). And that’s without a really strong pass rush, which means the secondary — a huge question mark coming into this season — […]

Why the 49ers might consider sitting Culliver when Brock returns
Tramaine Brock probably won’t return until after the 49ers’ bye week (according to Matt Maiocco, who uses sound logic). There’s no reason to rush him back at this point, particularly because Perrish Cox is playing extremely well at left cornerback. Whether you look at the stats (three interceptions, fifth best cornerback in the NFL through five games according […]

Vic Fangio had defense prepared for Eagles’ tempo, preferred goal-line plays
The stats tell a very favorable story, but they don’t tell the whole story. Behind allowing just 22 rushing yards and no points against the Eagles was a week of preparation that got them ready for not just the Eagles’ tempo, but their playbook as well. The result was a game-saving, and possibly season-saving, performance punctuated by […]

3.4K4Practice report: 49ers test out Levi’s Stadium, fans see a lot of INTs
I forgot today was the first open practice at Levi’s Stadium, until I took the Great America Parkway exit off 237 and saw more traffic in left and center lanes than I’ve ever seen on that stretch. It was around 11:45, a little over an hour before practice, so I had plenty of time. But […]

49ers training camp battles to watch: cornerback
Too early? NEVER! OK, you might have a point. Training camp doesn’t start for a few weeks. But the Giants are playing some of their worst baseball since last year around this time. The A’s? Sure, they’re outstanding, but (1) we have an A’s writer, (2) A’s stories don’t exactly draw a ton of eyeballs and […]

2.5K249ers roundup: two players re-signed, Kap extension seems likely, York/Baalke/Harbaugh get on same page
In the period of traveling back from Spring Training and covering the latest Mark Jackson saga, I’ve missed a lot of 49ers news. Free agency is still in session, although most of the top guys have been (over)paid by now. The owners meetings were the story this week, but all we’ve covered here is the […]

4.7K8Inside the LOL: 49ers season in review part three – random acts of lunacy
Welcome back for the exciting conclusion of our 49ers season review! In parts one and two of the series, we analyzed the abject failure which came to define the 2013 San Francisco 49ers from every possible angle.

3.3K2Carlos Rogers says “I’m playing” in NFC Championship, 49ers aren’t into that “rah-rah” stuff
Carlos Rogers is a great radio guest, because while his filter might not be completely washed away it’s barely hanging on. When Tom Tolbert started out this week’s edition of Rogers’ weekly show on KNBR 680 with a question about how his hamstring feels and whether or not he thought he’d make it back for […]
