In a season during which injuries to key players have decimated their defense, the San Francisco 49ers have gotten a somewhat unexpected performance from a player who before this year had seen his entire career taken apart due to his own repeated health problems.
The player in question is cornerback Jason Verrett, a one-time Pro Bowler and first-round pick of the Chargers who played in just six games between 2016 and 2019 while various injuries sidetracked his career.

San Francisco 49ers' head coach Kyle Shanahan and I probably have very little in common, except a critical Xennial lesson learned in the late 1980s: if the game isn't working, take it out of the console and blow on it.
The 49ers' offense was in dire need of a reset going into Week 6 against the Los Angeles Rams. There has been little sync and fluidity, except for the two wins against both wretched franchises from New York.
Here's how the 49ers can take the right parts of their win, along with areas that need improvement, and springboard into Week 7.
