Meanwhile Al Michaels has sounded like he’d rather be anywhere else on earth this entire game.

I stopped the Booger hate when it turned out he was 100% dead on right about Jim.

Kyle on Tuesday: This preseason game is going to be our dress rehearsal for the season.
Kyle on Thursday: We’re resting our all-pro linemen on both sides of the field including the best left tackle in football and our starting skill players are all going to play one series (or none at all on defense) and Trey’s only gonna play two series running nothing but day one installation plays.
I honestly think Kyle would have forfeited the game and kept the guys in Santa Clara if he could.

Sure. He’s better than Drew Lock and Geno Smith. But that’s also like saying he’s better than Nick Mullens and CJ Beathard. It’s a level of praise that means next to nothing.
I cannot wait until he faceplants on a terrible team, and I cannot wait for our line to feast on a statue with a bad OLine.
Its probably a playbook thing - they don't want to have Garoppolo goto a division team with his knowledge of the offense - recall Gruden destroying the Raiders in the early 2000s Superbowl. If the Seahawks give a juicy deal 49ers may make an exception though....seems more and more likely they keep Jimmy G for the season as a pricey backup.
49ers are favored by 7 over Bears in opener

No chance they keep him. Dude’s going to be Seattle’s starter in a month after he learns their book.
Also; the Niners have a new “Trey Lance” playbook. One that wasn’t given to Jim as he exercises all by himself off to the side. He hasn’t been in team meetings. They aren’t flying him to games or joint practices. He’s a 49er in name only and the final countdown clock is on with the 53-man cutdown looming.
Jimmy Garoppolo’s new 49ers contract contains two interesting clauses (msn.com)
The title of the link is answered a couple posts above, but there is some contract info, etc., in this article.

Nobody wanted to take on Garrapolo's contract, and the Niners and Garoppolo both get something back in this case. (of compromise) Its an insurance policy like it or not. Its partially based on the fact that Lance has not proven anything yet. He'll get his chance. The annoying thing is Garrapolo is fair but against good competition has not proven to be a winner in big moments, and there's nothing really to indicate that'll change.

Nah, Slab isn't a fair-weather fan. He's a Rob McKenna Rain Type 17 fan. Very different.
