Yeah the 49ers got 90% of the close calls but the Panthers just flat out did not play well enough to win. A perfectly officiated game and we still lose. Panthers had plenty of opportunities to make plays and they just didn't make it happen. 49ers deserved the W today, I'm not going to whine about a couple calls, that crap is embarrassing.

In any event this year was a great step for the organization. Rivera did a complete 180 as a HC. Gettleman infused the D with a ton of talent and built the #2 defense in just one offseason. I'm looking forward to seeing him revamp the offense in a similar fashion this offseason. Go Panthers

You have no basis for saying that. All of the 49ers points came off of bad calls either on the play or earlier in the drive. It very well could have been a shut out with "a perfectly officiated game."

At the end of the first half I'd have told you to go fug yourself. That was disgustingly lopsided to the point that the announcers were pointing poo out. The refs flat out kept the 49ers in the game.

 

We poo the bed in the second half and got blown the fug up. No excuses there.

I got over the calls in the 2nd half because I thought the 49ers were a better team. The difference in this game was the 49ers Defense outplayed Carolina's Defense when it mattered most (i.e turnovers, sacks, 3rd down and 4th down conversions). Our defense was not able to get the 49ers offense off the field on 3rd down.

The refs were an abortion, no way around it regardless of what you say. It was as bad as replacement refs. The offense has to be focused on this offseason and hopefully cam will get some weapons, but lets not act like gettleman did it all in 1 offseason. He was left with pieces like CJ, Hardy, Kuechly, and Thomas Davis which were the foundation of this defense.

      Who will blow it Sunday?

      BPA comes with the caveat of positional value and roster need included. Never let the latter two completely overwhelm the first, however. Our FO seems to lean heavily into "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE POTENTIALZ!!!" as a fourth category and often it seems as the #1 overall pursuit. With as many needs as this roster has, I am not going to get upset over a real roster upgrade at WR versus some reach at EDGE or whatever other extreme needs we have. Overall, I want to see the roster get better. There is far, far, FAR more than one offseason of work left to get this roster into the top 10-12 in the NFL. That should be the goal.

      I would say we are more likely to get smoked by Tampa, blast Seattle and then perplexingly lose to Tampa again.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      In general, Dave Canales tends to target his TE's the least frequently of any position group(WR/RB/TE) during his three years of running an NFL offense.  However, if you notice this percentage has crept up over time. 2025 is the first year that TE has eclipsed RB in target percentage. Production has also gone up in 2025. This is a percentage of total output in each category. Canales has always used a very TE heavy offense. In fact, on average his offensive formations are 2 or 3 TE sets roughly 80% of all offensive formations. So, the question may be, with this uptick in total TE output, could an elite or top tier TE make a significant impact? I believe there is some evidence this may be the case. Here are a look at TE snaps and Cade Otten specifically. These are the snap percentages for all rostered TE's in every Dave Canales offense. The bolded cell is Cade Otten's whopping 96.46% of total snap counts in the single year he was in the Dave Canales offense in Tampa. This was overwhelmingly his career high. His production was higher with less utilization in 2024, however.    In conclusion, while I don't anticipate ever seeing a top 5 producing/Pro Bowl caliber TE performance in a Dave Canales offense, there does appear to be some evidence that an actual upgrade in our TE room would actually lead to increasing overall offensive efficiency. I think Otten's utilization rate does indicate that the splitting of time between our relatively even TE group would cede significant snaps if a far superior option were available. I believe this is an area we could(and should have this past offseason/draft) made a more concerted effort to get a dynamic TE threat, after the apparent failure that J. Sanders appears to have been.
