Deebo Samuel’s injury makes Brandin Cooks next man up at WR: 49ers minutia minute (paywall) “Colby had his roughest game of the year, allowing a team-high six quarterback pressures. His main opponent, Byron Murphy II, had two sacks. Colby allowed one of the two, although Purdy was forced to step forward into the second. That […]
Rams-Bills live discussion: Matthew Stafford and Josh Allen are poised for a shootout

The 3-1 Buffalo Bills are off their first loss of the season. Buffalo led 26-21 late in the fourth quarter before Drake Maye drove the field to […]
Deebo Samuel is expected to miss a ‘couple of weeks’ with a hamstring injury
The San Francisco 49ers will be down another wide receiver for “at least a couple of weeks”, according to Kyle Shanahan. Shanahan said Samuel “got pretty good” when speaking about his injury. The 49ers face the Commanders and Falcons before their bye week. It’s reasonable to assume we won’t see Deebo until after the Niners’ […]

The NFL suspended San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw for one game after a headbutt on Seattle Seahawks linebacker Ernest Jones: According to the league, Greenlaw was in violation of Rule 12, Section 3, Article 1, which applies to “any act which is contrary to the generally understood principles of sportsmanship.” Greenlaw will be eligible […]
3 lessons we learned from the 49ers’ win over Seattle: The bullies are back
The San Francisco 49ers punched, got punched, and punched back on their way to their fifth consecutive victory in 2026 with a hard-fought, message-sending win over the defending Super Bowl champions. From the first play, the 49ers were hell-bent on sending a message: the bullies are still here, and last year was last year. The […]
49ers unsurprised as defensive youth movement pays huge dividends in Seattle
In the biggest game of the year so far, the 49ers’ defense, stacked with young players in every area, produced its best performance of the season as San Francisco improved to 5-0.

15 Winners, 5 losers, and 1 IDK from the 49ers’ statement win over the Seahawks
We witnessed a wild one in Seattle. The San Francisco 49ers’ Week 5 win over the Seahawks was the game of the year. You’d think a 61-point contest would feature two offenses that drove downfield against each other. Neither quarterback threw for more than 200 yards. Despite all of the scoring, only two of those […]
49ers News: Victory Monday + Go Bills
Fleet Week was this past weekend in San Francisco. When the Blue Angels really get rocking with their aerial tricks, it’s such an overwhelming combination of power and precision. They go so fast and turn so tight and everything feels both explosive and hyper-accurate. That’s what it felt like watching Mike Evans play today. I’ve […]
49ers beat the Seahawks on the road to be undefeated through five weeks and 3-0 in the NFC West; today was a good day
I’m going to be taking something from the Fooch intellectual property by posting an oldie by a goodie: Get that rolling on your speakers. While we’re at it, I’ll keep at it with playing the hits and stealing from Fooch’s IP: The 49ers beat the Seattle Seahawks 32-29 in a type of game they most […]

49ers win a thriller over the Seahawks to remain undefeated
Are you not entertained? This was the most San Francisco 49ers-Seattle Seahawks game you’ll see. The 49ers started with a three-and-out. Punter Corliss Waitman pinned Seattle deep in their territory.

49ers-Seahawks game thread: Will Kyle Shanahan finally figure out Mike MacDonald?
The San Francisco 49ers and Seattle Seahawks are both coming off games where the scoreboard didn’t tell the true story. The Niners were tied with the Broncos at three deep into the third quarter.

Only one game matters today, but it’s still a busy schedule the rest of the day. We open with another London game, this time featuring the Eagles and Jaguars.
