By Peter Panacy
The San Francisco 49ers were walloped at home by the Dallas Cowboys 40-10 in Week 7, meaning there are plenty of losers to go around. Niner Noise looks at the five biggest ones.
Typically after each week in this rebuilding year for the San Francisco 49ers, Niner Noise takes a stock-watch look at players from the team’s contest over the weekend.
After the 40-10 drubbing at the hands of the Dallas Cowboys in Week 7, though, there aren’t going to be enough players who saw their stock rise.
We’ll change it up this week and look at the five biggest losers from San Francisco’s underwhelming efforts on Sunday. Sadly, there are quite a few to choose from. But we’ve narrowed it down to the players most responsible for all that went wrong over the course of the game.
In fairness, we could blame entire units. Up front, the Niners generated almost zero pass rush. On the flip side, quarterback C.J. Beathard was under nearly constant pressure from Cowboys pass-rushers.
The results speak for themselves.
At any rate, here are the five biggest 49ers culprits from Week 7.
