Helps that they didn’t have him run directly into his guard’s butt for some reason
Run upright stiff awkwardly and robotically directly into your OLine was a bold choice by Kyle for three Trey plays in a row.

He's better than either of the quarterbacks that beat Brady in superbowls...
This feels like an absolute thrashing … yet Chicago’s only down 6.
Uh no........Foles MVP performance Garoppolo will never get close to and he had his shot already and failed., while Manning is a whole level better than Jimmy. Garoppolo is a B- QB - middle of the pack.....if he was better than Foles and Manning, he would've made that 4th down wide open throw in the SuperBowl........Garappolo is on par with Alex Smith without Smith's running ability. He's like the majority of QBs in the NFL - if his line holds up, he does pretty well. He's middle of the pack.
Way too early hot take; The Niners are the worst team in the best division, above .500 but going to miss the playoffs.
Alex >>>>>>> Jimmy
I didn't see the Seattle or Arizona games. No clue on that. It's hard to rate when the Lions are probably a bottom 5 team. Losing Wilson Jr was a big blow to RB depth.....Mitchell looked great, but I think the Lions just sucked. I'd wanted the 49ers to go CB in 1st round......still a bit annoyed about that.
Smith had his chance, although it wasn't his fault against the Giants.....it was their Special Teamer (with "K" -- too lazy to look up). At least Jimmy got 'em to the Super Bowl, although it was their defense really. Luck of the draw, had the Chiefs had a decimated front line like against the Bucs last year, I wonder if that would've swayed the outcome 2 years before - I still think maybe not. Chiefs defense would've still stepped up enough I think. Anyway, The Chiefs have taken the baton from the Patsies as my most hated team, with Seattle a close 2nd or 3rd. Gawd the Browns imploded like a black hole......
People crap on Jimmy but he's done nothing other than win, from the moment he stepped on the field for the Niners. Completely turned the franchise around from game 1. He's got his problems for sure but they simply win when he plays and they don't when he's out.
But that is one of his biggest problems right there. He can't stay on the field.
But he's on the field right now, why pull him off?
After watching yesterday I’ve been reminiscing about DeForest Buckner. I refuse to believe the office couldn’t have taken the contract they gave AA and worked something out. They resigned the wrong guy. DeFo elevated the entire team around him and single handedly earned AA that contract with his elite play. Can’t say I’m too shocked to be right about him reverting back to an average space eater the second DB was gone.![]()
Honestly confused by some of the venom Jimmy gets, like I get he may not be flashiest and his injury history is troubling but I do feel like he is a winner. Which does sort of create new problems with Lance. Interesting that Jimmy may be the last successful "understudy" QB the way current trends are headed.People crap on Jimmy but he's done nothing other than win, from the moment he stepped on the field for the Niners.

Armstead’s never been a huge stats guy but the advanced stats love him. He was one of our leaders on PFF against the Lions.After watching yesterday I’ve been reminiscing about DeForest Buckner.

Also watched the Colts-Hawks game and the Colts look like they might be terrible this year (despite Wentz actually play decently) in large part thanks to them vastly overpaying Buckner and Darius Leonard and completely forgetting to bring in complementary role players.

Yep. Kinda like Justin Smith turning Aldon into a flash in the pan star.
