Niner’s Ugly in 31-17 Loss

San Francisco 49ers (2-2) 17
New Orleans Saints (3-1) 31

If there ever was a time the 49ers played as a team it was yesterday in their loss to the Saints. Unfortunately for 49er fans the team collectively played a horrible game on offense and defense. The offense had three turnovers (two interceptions, one fumble), all committed [...]

Steve Young’s Number to be Retired

The man who led the Red and Gold to their last Super Bowl ring will have his number 8 jersey retired during halftime on October 5 against the New England Patriots. Steve Young will forever be remembered as the man who succeeded Joe Montana successfully by leading the 49ers to ring number five. I remember the [...]

Shawntae Spencer Out for the Season

CB Shawntae Spencer will have season-ending surgery today on his torn ACL in his left knee. The loss of Spencer will have a big impact on the secondary. Spencer was third on the depth chart and had played well in the first two games before being hurt at the end of the Seahawks game. His [...]

49ers Strong Again

Detroit Lions 13
San Francisco 49ers 31
The 49ers are off to a 2-1 start for the second consecutive year as they mauled the Lions 31-13. J.T. O’Sullivan and the passing looked solid again for the second straight week.  O’Sullivan went 16-for-23, 189 yards, two touchdowns with no interceptions…or fumbles! In fact the 49ers had no [...]

What to Make of O’Sullivan

Okay, so we have had J.T. O’ Sullivan as the starter for two weeks. The first week was bad, too many fumbles, and the second week he played well and put the 49ers in position to win. He looked poised in the pocket even though he got sacked eight times. He was able to get [...]

Way to Go J.T.O and Joe!

San Francisco 49er 33
Seattle Seahawks 30

The San Francisco 49ers won yesterday is dramatic fashion beating divisional rivals the Seahawks 33-30 in overtime. Joe Nedney who missed a game winning field goal as time expired redeemed himself in overtime as he kicked a 41-yard field goal to win the game.

This is what the 49ers needed. A [...]

Qwest Field
1:05 PM (PST)
The 49ers had a bad game last week against the Cardinals and if they were in any other division they would be the cellar dwellers after week one. Fortunately the 49ers are in the NFC Worst where the Rams, well the 38-3 score last week [...]

Alex Smith Done for the Year, Maybe Career

Alex Smith was placed on injured reserve today ending his season, his time as a 49er, and possibly his career. The latter is speculation but he injured his surgically repaired shoulder that ended his season last year in practice on Friday. Not from contact but from throwing. Blowing out a shoulder for QB is like [...]

New Season, Same Story

Arizona Cardinals 23
San Francisco 49ers 13

Where to start?…five turnovers…back to back fumbles, first one recovered, second one lost…one touchdown on 291 yards of offense…Anquan Boldin shut out in the first-half only to have eight catches in the second-half with six of them going for first downs….no catches for Isaac Bruce, only three for Bryant Johnson…four [...]
