Didn't they look pretty good thought? That is what I kept hearing. 

I think teams can look good in Pre Season but when push comes to shove and the games count the money is on the line and the cream of the crop rises. The 49ers are far from the cream. You don't win with a defense that is listed at 31 out of 32 teams against the 1st string team all 4 quarters(No Way). Not many playmakers on the team. OK, I'll give them Hyde and maybe even Garcon but that is it.

Foster is a stud (Saints whiffed on Barnett, Foster, Mahomes, and Malcolm Butler (trade)) in the 1st Round.

They've got athletic DL with length they've drafted in the 1st in recent years.

McDonald and Brooks are gone.

IF they beat us, everything that we've hoped for since 2011 goes up in flames.  No reason for building foundations, keeping up with the draft, having a franchise QB, staff continuity, etc.

There are NO excuses to lose to this football team.

Biggest concern: San Fran pass rush. 

Biggest exploit: Run it !!!!! .. You remember that streak we had with like 20 games with 100+ rushing yards(it was something crazy like that)...well they are almost undefeated whenever the opposing team fails to reach 100 yards rush....atleast somewhere around the last 10 times this has happened. 

Answer: Stew, Stew, Stew..and when they get gassed = run CMC.

Although the Qb situation over there is garbage, I wouldn't sleep on them.

That was last year though. We were 6-10 last year. If we expect the Panthers to be better, then why shouldn't we at least allow for the possibility that the 49ers could be better?

They don't have one returning WR from last years roster, all fresh faces, obviously that plays into our favor as far as chemistry is concerned, so our secondary should hold their own this game. 

Starting WR's: Pierre Garcon & Marquise Goodwin

Pierre Garcon - Going in his 10th year, had 79 rec. for 1,041 yards last year.

Marquise Goodwin  - Coming off a career "high", 29 rec. for 431 yards. 

I suppose Bradberry will be on Garcon & Worley on Goodwin. I like our odds in the back end this game.

I watched the first half of their game against the Vikes. I thought they looked quite good. Vikes couldn't move the ball at all. Their DL is impressive.Reuben Foster looked great at LB. They have a ST guy called Bolden who made some amazing runs after catch. Saw an amazing long Goodwin TD. I was a big fan of TE Kittle who scored a nice pre-season TD. Surprised they cut Kerley though..

    • Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field. 
    • At least we don't need to hear overreacting about towels ...
    • Actually there is, try being a Charlotte Hornets fan. I mean the team fuging moved at its peak and hasn't recovered since and that was 25 years ago
