An eight-man group of alumni that included Joe Montana, Jerry Rice and Roger Craig emerged from a tunnel as part of a celebration recognizing the 1981 and '88 Super Bowl teams. The 49ers' sixth Super Bowl title could be at least a few more seasons away. Thanks to another hard-to-watch performance by the NFL's worst offense, the 49ers fell to 4-10 for the first time since 2007 and wasted a spirited effort by a defense that limited the Bengals to a season-low 242 yards and one scoring drive of more than 36 yards. In the second half, which began with the 49ers trailing 21-0, the already sparse crowd had thinned to a friends-and-family level. Instead of winning, the 49ers were facing a cavernous hole, courtesy of a comical seven-minute stretch. Midway through the second quarter, they were locked in a scoreless tie. With 53 seconds left before halftime, they trailed 21-0, after a fumble by wide receiver Anquan Boldin, an 18-yard punt by rookie Bradley Pinion and an interception that clanged...

Ian Rapoport didn't offer much of an update on the ongoing contract negotiations between the San Francisco 49ers and their standout wide receiver, Brandon Aiyuk. However, the NFL insider emphasized one thing: The team is not entertaining trade discussions at this juncture.

Most expect the 49ers to address the trenches early in the draft, and Brugler has the team doing that. It's just not on the offensive side of the football. In fact, Brugler doesn't have San Francisco
