The 49ers did nothing at the trade deadline.
The Seahawks traded for a stud wide receiver even though they lost to the 49ers.
Must be fun to root for the Seahawks.

@LombardiHimself This is the same shit you used to say about Stafford’s backup, Jimmy Garoppolo. You don’t know ball.

Btw, this isn’t controversial for those of us rooted in facts over emotion and bias. EPA/play ranks out of 26 qualifying QBs since 2022:
1. Purdy
…
18. Stafford
There’s a sizable gap regardless of which metric you choose

Here's another thing 49ers fans should keep in mind: The Rams have executed their roster renovation and successful turnaround with Matthew Stafford ranking #15 in QB efficiency over the past 2 seasons. So LA has done this without great QB play, and Stafford isn't getting younger. The 49ers have the luxury of Brock Purdy, who's ranked #1 since entering the league, at the opposite end of his career

In 2024, let’s play a game of which offense fared better…
Yards per play: 49ers
EPA per play: 49ers
Points per drive: 49ers
Explosive play rate: 49ers
Can Shanahan be a little more upfront with the media? Sure
Yet one guy’s offense was significantly better over the season.

Sean McVay and Kyle Shanahan are so different.

I’m hearing that the 49ers front office is not pleased with Kyle Shanahan and John Lynch.

The last time the 49ers played a game without Brandon Aiyuk, they scored 30 points, George Kittle had 7 catches for 90 yards, Deebo Samuel had 6 catches for 129 yards and 1 touchdown and Brock Purdy threw for 310 yards, 2 touchdowns and 0 interceptions.

Re: Ricky Pearsall — John Lynch said the 49ers’ plan was to get the shoulder 100% right has been to slow play the rehab process. He also added that SF is now higher on Pearsall than when they drafted him. All this context is relevant — it’s months too early to pass judgment here
English
If Brandon Aiyuk comes out to the practice field today and sees his shadow, his contract negotiation will last two more weeks.

@grantcohn I'd be jealous too if I were you. If only you were good enough to be a beat reporter for the Athletic. It's too bad that Daddy doesn't have any connections for you to get hired on.

The 49ers just signed the best swing tackle in the NFL according to Lombardi. Incredible.
David Lombardi@LombardiHimself
This past season with Tennessee, new 49ers OL Chris Hubbard allowed 4 sacks and 18 pressures across 268 pass-blocking reps. That ranked #51 of 86 qualifying tackles... which is about as good as a team could realistically hope for out of a swing tackle
English
Dammit, not great. He just took a cart back to the locker room.

Dre Greenlaw appeared to injure himself jogging back onto the field
English
#49ers LB Dre Greenlaw is having his left foot/knee worked on on the sideline right now. Seems to be in some real pain.
*Edited to clarify it appears to be left foot/ankle*
English
The pass rush the 49ers are showing today rivals their 2019 prime. Discipline, power, speed and teamwork. It's a Boa constrictor on Mahomes
English
Dre Greenlaw just went down far away from that punt, hopped off the field and immediately went down. He’s still down and having his lower leg looked at.
