\"We're the San Francisco 49ers, we can do whatever we want.\"
It’s ancient history now, but the San Francisco 49ers have had a few sideline moments over the years. This year, the major one was when wide receiver Jauan Jennings and head coach Kyle Shanahan were caught on camera in a heated argument on the sidelines during San Francisco’s Week 6 loss to the Tampa Bay […]
We’re nearly two months removed from the San Francisco 49ers allowing 42 points at home to the then Super Bowl favorite Los Angeles Rams. The result dropped the Niners to just one game over .500, leaving many fans skeptical about a playoff berth. That was Week 10. We’re heading into the final week of the […]

The San Francisco 49ers have their second short week in a row as they prepare for the Seattle Seahawks in Week 18. The winner gets the No. 1 seed and homefield advantage throughout the playoffs. The bye week would greatly benefit the 49ers. While it’s a long shot that Fred Warner returns this year, it […]
Another nationally televised game, another 40-burger from the 49ers offense. The quarterback is dealing, the playcaller is dialed in, the running back looks explosive again, and the All-Pro tight end should be back in the lineup for Saturday’s game for the number one seed in the NFC. This is the 49ers offense that was imagined […]
The San Francisco 49ers have quite a few playoff scenarios that could happen in the final week of the regular season, as they’re vying for the No. 1 seed in the NFC. The 49ers will play the Seahawks for the No. 1 seed next weekend at Levi’s Stadium, with the winner getting the coveted first-round […]
The San Francisco 49ers beat the Chicago Bears in a thriller on Sunday night, winning on the final play of scrimmage with a defensive stand to keep their No. 1 seed hopes alive heading into Week 18. It was a shootout from the start, as the score was 14 apiece after one quarter and 28-21 […]
And so it’s come to this. The final week of the NFL regular season will decide who wins the NFC West. It was a wild ride, but the San Francisco 49ers have a chance to take that crown back and not go on any more road games in 2025. The 49ers have issues—or an issue: […]
Brock Purdy, slinging and dancing, makes anything possible for these 49ers (paywall)“As soon as the expectations rose for the 49ers, and the stakes escalated, Purdy ascended with them. The season got real, transforming from a surprising feel-good story to a real chance to put themselves in the driver’s seat. The 49ers stared at a critical […]
The Los Angeles Rams looked like the sure-fire No. 1 seed a few short weeks ago. But with one game left in Week 17, they have fallen to the sixth seed and third in the NFC West Standings. The Rams travel to Atlanta to take on the Falcons on Monday night. Kirk Cousins looks to […]
ESPN’s Adam Schefter appeared on the Pat McAfee show to provide a couple of injury expectations for George Kittle and Trent Williams: Kittle is going to push to come back next week. He never tested it last week, at all. They weren’t going to play him on Sunday night. He was out. He’ll have a […]
It was fitting that, in a season defined by the 49ers’ ability to overcome injury adversity, they were forced to produce one of their best offensive performances of the season in a must-win game without two of their most important players on that side of the ball. On paper, losing Trent Williams to a hamstring […]
That’s back-to-back 40-point games for the 49ers with Brock Purdy totaling ten touchdowns. Adding the context of no George Kittle and Trent Williams leaving the game after one snap, Purdy and Kyle Shanahan’s offensive performance is even more impressive. It’s hard to envision the 49ers offense keeping up this pace, especially when the defenses get […]
The San Francisco 49ers have scored over 40 points in three of their previous six games, and they scored 37 in one of those games. The offense is operating at a level that rivals its 2023 second-half stretch. The quarterback is healthy and using his entire skill set. The running game has finally caught up […]
The Chicago Bears looked discombobulated on the final play of the game. San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said he “thought about” calling a timeout, but “Wanted to see the look and then they just went fast and let it ride.” Linebacker Tatum Bethune told the 49ers broadcast that he and Dee Winters were […]
The San Francisco 49ers survived their Sunday night tilt against the Chicago Bears by a score of 42-38 in an offensive slugfest that came down to the Bears’ offense simply running out of time. The game started with Brock Purdy and the 49ers’ offense spotting Chicago the first seven points, and from there it came […]
You could tell early on that Sunday night football was going to be one of those games. San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan felt it right away, as did most fans. Shanahan went as far as to say that he felt like he lost the game when he decided to punt for the second […]
While the San Francisco 49ers are alive in the race for the NFL’s No. 1 seed after beating the Chicago Bears 42-38, there is one narrative that can die: Brock Purdy not being worth that huge contract he signed in the offseason. If you watched this and last week’s game against the Indianapolis Colts, you […]
49ers win frenzied fracas, beat Bears 42-38 to set up NFC showdown with Seattle (paywall)“With a clear path to the No. 1 seed at stake, San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy treated Levi’s Stadium and a national audience to a one-play touchdown for the other team. Another five touchdowns later, all was forgiven.“ 49ers’ bullied, riddled defense steps up […]
The San Francisco 49ers played one of the more entertaining games of the season against the Chicago Bears. The score went back and forth all night. The defense got a stop when it needed to, while the offense found the end zone when it couldn’t afford to settle for a field goal. Now, after a […]
The NFL announced Week 18’s schedule, and the San Francisco 49ers will host the Seattle Seahawks on Saturday at 5 p.m. PT. The 49ers won’t be happy about playing on a short week. It’s a quick turnaround, and Upton Stout will be in the concussion protocol. Not just that, but Trent Williams sustained a hamstring […]
The San Francisco 49ers love to make things interesting. They wasted little time against the Chicago Bears. Brock Purdy’s first pass attempt was intercepted and returned for a touchdown. His intended target, Jauan Jennings, ran a D- route. Not only did the 49ers go down 7-0 on the first play, but they also lost Trent […]
There will be no shortage of scoring between the San Francisco 49ers and the Chicago Bears on Sunday night football. The Niners offense has been the second-most explosive in the NFL since Brock Purdy returned to the lineup in Week 10. During that same stretch, the Chicago Bears have been impressive in their own right. […]

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported early on Sunday morning that San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle is “highly unlikely” to play tonight against the Chicago Bears. NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport said Kittle will give it a go pre-game to see if he can play. Ricky Pearsall, who is also listed as questionable, is “likely to […]
