We are in a cycle in which teams request coaching and general manager interviews. For years, the San Francisco 49ers were consistently losing key personnel from their front office and coaching staff. That slowed down last season after a 6-win stint, but it should pick up this offseason. Sure enough, NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported […]

We won’t know the times and specific dates until May, but we know who the opponents will be. The 49ers will have their typical home and away […]
On Saturday night, two candidates for the NFL’s Coach of the Year award entered Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, with the NFC’s No. 1 seed on the line. The San Francisco 49ers headman, Kyle Shanahan, stood on one sideline after somehow propelling an injury-riddled 49ers team to a 12-4 season. On the other was […]
The Eagles secured the No. 3 seed in the NFC, and will play the No. 6 seeded San Francisco 49ers on Wild Card Weekend. The NFL announced the schedule for the first round of the playoffs, and the Eagles-49ers will kick-off on Sunday at 4:30 PM ET at Lincoln Financial Field on FOX. They may […]
The regular season is over, and the San Francisco 49ers will be the No. 6 seed in the NFC after losing a tough game to the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday, with the NFC West title and the No. 1 seed on the line. After an improbable run, which included a six-game win streak and some […]
It was the biggest regular season game in franchise history, and the Seattle Seahawks delivered one of the most impressive defensive statements in franchise history. It was all Seahawks in a 13-3 pummeling that doesn’t accurately show how much Seattle dominated the San Francisco 49ers. After beating big brother number one in the Los Angeles […]

We don’t yet know when each of the Rams’ 2026 games will be, but we do know which teams they’ll play at home and on the road. The Rams will obviously face the rest of the NFC West — the Cardinals, 49ers and Seahawks — in home and away matchups next season. They’ve also got […]
49ers game review: The back-breaking play that left John Lynch screaming (paywall) “The big play was part of a game in which the 49ers missed a season-high 18 tackles, according to Pro Football Focus, a reason they missed out on a chance to win the NFC West title and claim the conference’s No. 1 seed. […]
Now that the NFC playoff bracket is official, the San Francisco 49ers have their Wild Card weekend opponent set. Philadelphia losing to Washington means they are the 3-seed, and will host the Niners. The last time these two teams faced each other, Deebo Samuel had a day to remember in Philadelphia, and the 49ers won […]
The Philadelphia Eagles are three-point home favorites in their Wild Card playoff game against the San Francisco 49ers next weekend, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. For the uninitiated, the home team being favored by three points is standard in a game with two teams that are viewed to be relatively even. UPDATE: As I was writing […]
The NFC playoff picture is officially set as the Philadelphia Eagles have clinched the No. 3 seed in the conference.. There was still a chance that Nick Sirianni’s team could earn the No. 2 seed, but they needed to beat the Washington Commanders in Week 18, and also needed the Chicago Bears to lose to […]
The San Francisco 49ers host the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday evening. The winner will earn a coveted bye week as the No. 1 seed in the playoff picture. The loser travels to Tampa Bay. Or Carolina. Perhaps Chicago. Maybe even Philadelphia. Despite what happens Saturday night, it would not be a surprise to see the […]
The San Francisco 49ers anxiously await their Wild Card opponent. On Sunday afternoon, a Los Angeles Rams win over the Arizona Cardinals would mean the Niners are the sixth seed. If the Rams lose, the 49ers will travel to the NFC South winner, which turned out to be the Carolina Panthers. The Rams are 14.5-point […]
Alex Wennberg has been a nice fit for the San Jose Sharks over the past year and a half, and that relationship will be continuing into the extended future. Wennberg, who was a pending unrestricted free agent, has signed a three-year extension. He made the announcement himself on the Sharks' social media: Alex Wennberg has some exciting news to share with you. ✍️x🦈x3️⃣ #TheFutureIsTeal pic.twitter.com/tIqmFAEVyI — San Jose Sharks (@SanJoseSharks) January 4, 2026 #sjsharks have re-signed A...

One of their potential matchups, the Philadelphia Eagles, will rest several starters on Sunday. Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and the entire starting offensive line are not listed among the […]
The Seattle Seahawks’ season is not over. Yet it is already a success. Seattle hired Mike Macdonald to re-establish the franchise back on its rightful perch atop the NFC West, by way of a full defensive makeover. His job was clear: tame the offenses of football’s two pre-eminent masterminds, out-genius the other two geniuses in […]
The San Jose Sharks have 50 contracts on the books, but with Michael Misa returning from the World Junior Championship in a few days, the team is going to have to make a decision soon. Once Misa plays his nine NHL games, the Sharks have to decide if he stays on the roster full-time and his contract goes into action or if he’s sent back to his junior team. The Sharks are starting to run out of ways to delay the process, so it’s getting close to decision time. The best scenario for the Shar...
This is not a bunch of woulda, coulda, shoulda. The 49ers were scheduled to play on Saturday, and they lost 13-3 to the Seattle Seahawks that night. Lost is not the right word: they got suffocated Saturday. It doesn’t help matters when offensive tackle Trent Williams and wide receiver Ricky Pearsall are both out for […]
Earlier this week I wrote a pregame article about the Seahawks season coming full circle in this Week 18 game between the Seattle Seahawks and San Francisco 49ers.

Once again, the Seattle Seahawks came into another stadium held the NFL’s number one offense to single-digit points. The San Francisco 49ers got to stay home and prepare for an entire week, with home-field advantage all the way through the Super Bowl on the line. They scored three points. But take heart! You’re not alone […]
Fooch has the strutting pony that we all have for when the San Francisco 49ers win. When things don’t go our way, I give you angry John Lynch: If anything sums up the 49ers fans’ thoughts on their 13-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, it’s that emotion right there. That reaction happened on a third […]
Like most teams, the A’s had a winter shopping list. It included improving themselves at 2B, adding to their bullpen, and working out extensions for their young core players. The good news is the A’s have addressed all 3 areas with the additions of Jeff McNeil, Mark Leiter Jr., and the recent 7 year extension […]
