49ers News: A very sweaty Victory Monday
What absolute freaking warriors. They showed so much grit and resilience today that I feel like my expectations are immediately raised for the rest of the season. It was good to see what it looks like when the 49ers offense faces a serious defense. It won’t always be fireworks and big runs. But when the […]
8 Winners, 3 losers, and 1 IDK from the 49ers win over the Broncos
It was the kind of win that proves your mettle as a San Francisco 49ers player. This is what an NFL game looks like. You can’t expect everything to go your way. You’re not going to score on every drive against a playoff-caliber team. It took the offense a half to heat up, but once […]
3 quick takeaways from 49ers win over Broncos: Timely plays put Niners on top for 2nd straight week
The San Francisco 49ers beat the Denver Broncos 24-14 to start the season 4-0 on Sunday and cap off a three-game home stretch with another quality win. Over the first three weeks, the 49ers offense dominated, but it took a while to get things going on Sunday, as San Francisco had just 10 points through […]

George Kittle and the 49ers outrun the Broncos to stay undefeated
The San Francisco 49ers defense began the game with a three-and-out. Cornerback Renardo Green was involved in two of the three plays. The Denver Broncos wanted a pass-interference call, but the ref saw it differently. After a 57-yard punt pinned the offense at their six-yard line, the Niners picked up a couple of first downs […]
49ers-Broncos game thread: Points, points, and more points at Levi’s Stadium
In my experience, hot weather usually means more scoring, whether it’s football or baseball. In this case, both defenses are coming off performances in which they faced more than 80 plays each. Tired legs might carry over into Week 4. We know the San Francisco 49ers don’t struggle to score. They’ve spoiled fans to the […]
49ers get Romello Height back; Mike Evans will play today
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans was listed as questionable heading into Week 4 with a rib injury. Kyle Shanahan said his star wideout would be a game-time decision. Evans told the media on Friday, “It’s my job”: I take pride in trying to suit up every chance I get. If the injury isn’t […]
Mike Evans taking a precaution to play for 49ers vs. Broncos
Mike Evans has been a doubt for the 49ers’ Week 4 game with the Denver Broncos since leaving the field in tremendous pain in last Sunday’s win over the Arizona Cardinals. But the veteran wide receiver will be on the field at Levi’s Stadium as the Niners face arguably their toughest test of the season […]

NFL game discussion: Early morning football followed by Rams-Eagles
The 49ers don’t get going until 1:25 p.m., and while the 10 a.m. slate is busy, I completely forgot we’ve got a London game today! The Colts and Commanders square off in a matchup of 1-2 teams at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. The game is getting underway at 6:30 a.m., so hopefully y’all are able to […]
49ers News: Game day
It’s a great day to root for old friends Jim Harbaugh and Mike McDaniel, as they try to save their season playing against the defending champion Seattle Seahawks. It’s also a great day to root for the NFC East, given that the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants are playing against the Los Angeles Rams […]
Matthew Judon will make his debut with the 49ers in Week 4
The San Francisco 49ers promoted defensive tackle Sebastian Valdez from the practice squad.

Edge rusher Matthew Judon was elevated […]
Colin Kaepernick suggests the 49ers were tanking with Chip Kelly in 2016
2016 was a rough time to be a 49ers fan, with the team going 2-14 while dealing with a dysfunctional front office. Former 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick suggests the 49ers didn’t want to win anyway. Kaepernick’s memoir, “The Perilous Fight,” has been out for a couple of weeks and tells his perspective on growing up […]
49ers News: Let Brandin Cook(s)
What will we learn about this team from this match-up? The Broncos are like a scaled-down version of some of the beasts they’d need to slay on their way to the Super Bowl. A legit defensive line (but not quite Seattle), an athletic quarterback (but not quite a peak Mahomes or Josh Allen), and a […]

The San Francisco 49ers host their third straight home game this Sunday as they take on the Denver Broncos. Familiar faces will be on the other side, as the Niners will face some of their homegrown talent: DJ Jones, Mike McGlinchey, and Talanoa Hufanga.

NFL predictions: Fast starts for the 49ers; Blitzing Broncos’ Bo Nix
Coming off a tight 36-30 win over the Arizona Cardinals, the San Francisco 49ers have a nice early test at home with the Denver Broncos coming to town. San Francisco’s offense has been the big story so far, as Brock Purdy has led one of the most efficient offensive attacks in the NFL so far. […]
Can the 49ers wear down the Broncos in 90-degree weather?
The San Francisco 49ers begin the first tough stretch of the 2026 season on Sunday, hosting the Denver Broncos. Sean Payton and the Broncos enter Santa Clara after some earning brownie points with the 49ers for their Sunday night win over the Los Angeles Rams.

Where the 49ers have surprised the most through three weeks
The San Francisco 49ers are off to a hot 3-0 start to the 2026 season, securing wins over the Los Angeles Rams, Miami Dolphins, and Arizona Cardinals.

49ers News: Dante Pettis redemption game loading?
I was looking at PFF grades and noticed some interesting things about the Broncos’ performance against the Rams. Of course, you have to take PFF grades with a grain of salt, but I found it interesting that…. The Broncos are the most formidable opponent yet but they’re gettable, especially on the ground. So excited for […]

The San Francisco 49ers are elevating veteran wide receiver Brandin Cooks from the practice squad to the active roster, while also bringing back wideout Malik Turner to the practice squad.

49ers coach Kyle Shanahan weighs in on reviewable pass interference
Nobdy signs up to watch “ref ball” on Sundays, but it seems like we can’t go a week in the NFL without the game being impacted by a controversial call. I’m sure the Arizona Cardinals felt like they were robbed on a couple of offensive pass interference calls against the San Francisco 49ers in Week […]
49ers expecting Mykel Williams to return as soon as he’s eligible after opening practice window
The San Francisco 49ers have been ravaged by injuries at a couple of places, but none have been more impactful than their injuries on the defensive line. The 49ers lost six defensive linemen through the first two weeks of the season to injury, and they’ve had to make a number of roster moves to recover […]
John Lynch on Mike Evans: ‘Mike’s going to make every attempt to try to play’
When the San Francisco 49ers lost Mike Evans during their Week 3 win over the Arizona Cardinals, the visible pain Evans was in looked like a player who would be out for longer than seven days.
