It's easier to create a home-field advantage when you provide your fans with a product worth cheering. That's what the San Francisco 49ers have finally given the Niner Faithful.
The 49ers gave a lot of credit for their Week 3 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers to the Levi's Stadium crowd, which created a lot of noise when the team needed it most.
"I really wanted the fans to be into it this game, with us being 2-0 on the road," linebacker
Fred Warner said after the win. "They came through, especially in those last few seconds in that last drive. That was the loudest I ever heard it, for sure. That for sure rattled the quarterback and got us the W in the end."
Cornerback Richard Sherman added: "We appreciate you guys (the fans) sticking through, being loud, being proud. 3-0 for the first time since '98."
Former 49ers tight end Brent Jones is excited to see what Monday night's crowd will bring when Levi's Stadium hosts the undefeated 49ers' most significant primetime matchup in years as the Cleveland Browns come into town. He
joined KNBR on Monday and shared his thoughts on the matchup.
"This is kind of strange, I was thinking about this," Jones said on the "Tolbert, Krueger and Brooks" show. "This next game might be the first time the 49ers have experienced a true home-field advantage at Levi's Stadium. People, I think, are going to be into this game because it's Monday night, because we're the only undefeated team in the NFC, Browns, all that, you know?
"Everyone else is sick of (Browns quarterback) Baker Mayfield and all his commercials too. So, I think, this is going to be it. We're going to see how loud Levi's can get because if it's not rocking and rolling on this Monday night, then it's never going to be."

Rapoport: 49ers send clear message to teams inquiring about Brandon Aiyuk
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.
Reacting to Aiyuk's decision to unfollow the 49ers on Instagram, Rapoport couldn't help but chuckle at the latest development. This practice has become commonplace among players who are unhappy with their contract situations. Wide receiver Deebo Samuel similarly took this action in 2022 before requesting to be traded just before the draft.
Things have yet to escalate that far with Aiyuk, but Rapoport sees his
7-round mock draft from The Athletic sees 49ers fortifying defense early
Analyst Dane Brugler recently revealed his seven-round mock draft for The Athletic, forecasting all 257 selections in the upcoming 2024 NFL Draft, set to kick off next week.
"Piecing together a mock like this is time consuming, but I enjoy the exercise, because it allows me to focus on each team's needs, organizational trends and prospect-team pairings that make sense based on '30' visits, league buzz and overall interest," Brugler wrote.
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
