Sometimes, as a fan, it is tough to find the exact words to express how truly disappointing the San Francisco 49ers have been this season. After all, many "experts" predicted this team to be the favorite to win the NFC West, a division that is clearly one of the worst in football. Luckily, some fans are at least able to find some humor in the situation.
Within
our forums, a number of fans have compiled a list of 49ers miscues from the season and have turned them into a drinking game. You know, one of those, "Every time you see this happen, take a shot" kind of deals. Many of the items are pretty amusing and the list does a pretty good job of showing how bad the team has performed over the course of the season.
Below is a good selection of items from the drinking game. Of course, I am just posting this in good humor and because I found it to be an accurate representation of the consistent mistakes this team makes. I fully support responsible drinking and given the list, odds are you would be passed out by the end of the first quarter if you actually tried to play. So please take this list for what it is ... an amusing collection by fans and not encouragement to actually attempt to play this game. Doing so may be very dangerous.
And now the rules of the game.
Take a shot ...
- Any time Frank Gore runs up the middle on first down.
- Whenever the 49ers waste a timeout due to poor time management.
- Whenever the 49ers turn the ball over.
- Nate Rule: Whenever the 49ers get a turnover and then give it right back on the same play.
- Whenever the 49ers are held scoreless in a quarter.
- Whenever the 49ers are held scoreless at the end of a game.
- Any time Anthony Davis or Chilo Rachal are flagged for a false start, holding or give up a sack.
- Any time Parys Haralson or Dashon Goldson miss a tackle.
- Any time the 49ers go three and out.
- Every time head coach Mike Singletary claps when something bad happens.
- Every time you can predict the play correctly before it happens.
Post Game Bonus
- Whenever head coach Mike Singletary says "I have to look at the tape" or something similar.

All this is true, but we have to remember this is improvement. If not for two field goals in OT we might have had a season without a win. Have we forgotten the Dennis Erickson era or the Mike Nolan regime. Remember when our top receiver was Brandon Llyod? Yes, this sucks, but we consistently hit .500 each season that beats being the cellar all the time. Plus, Alex is on the bench and if that is almost worth burning yet another season. Here's to Gruden in a 9ers cap!

Team York
Nice article David. Even though the games are horrible its importnant to me that niner fans keep a sense of humor. And find the humor in this season, because this truly is a unique and hilarious season. 1) Our coach wears the biggest cross in the NFL. Can we get an extra point for that? 2) "I need to watch the film". Our coach has watched Jesus of Nazerath and Miracle of Marcelino twenty times this week. 3) Our coach repeats himself constantly . . . why do i still not understand what he is saying. 4) Our coach does not know anything about offensive or defensive coordaination. Neither do I, Can I get the job next, Mr. York? 5) Our coach screams the loudest and runs the fastest when he calls a Time Out. He learned that in Coaching 101. 6) Our coach collaspes on the field after every loss from mental exhaustion. 7) Our coach is prepared this week. . . To shoot himself in the face with a squirt gun because he can't take another loss. 8) Our coach wants to thank the Arizona Cardinals for kicking our A$$ tonight! 9) Our coach is leaving the Niners to become a comedian on the Late Show with David Lettermen. 10) God bless you Jesus there is a God.

Arik Armstead: 49ers can repeat as NFC West champs; Trey Lance has a bright future
San Francisco 49ers defensive lineman Arik Armstead joined NFL Network's Good Morning Football on Thursday to discuss the state of the team at the start of organized team activities (OTAs). Armstead is part of a defensive line that includes NFL Defensive Player of the Year Nick Bosa and added former Philadelphia Eagles defensive tackle Javon Hargrave.
The question that had to be asked: Does San Francisco own the best defensive line in football?
"Well, on paper, I guess you could say that, but 'on paper' doesn't win any game," Armstead responded. "But we're excited about getting together and starting that journey of
49ers insider offers analysis from glimpse of Trey Lance and Sam Darnold
It's premature to draw conclusions about a quarterback based on practices in May. That is especially true when you do so based on one practice. The San Francisco 49ers started organized team activities (OTAs) this week, and all eyes were on Trey Lance and Sam Darnold.
The two players are battling for that QB2 job behind last season's rookie sensation, Brock Purdy. One could even start Week 1 if Purdy is not healthy enough to do so himself.
Lance is coming off a season-ending ankle injury but looks completely healthy now. Darnold is trying to turn his career around after never living up to his high draft status.
Matt Barrows of The Athletic was on hand for Tuesday's practice, the only one open to reporters so far, and one that Barrows describes as a
Ex-49ers QB Jimmy Garoppolo underwent foot surgery in March
One of the biggest criticisms about Jimmy Garoppolo has been his availability. The quarterback wins football games but has been available for an entire season just once in his career—in 2019.
Garoppolo's latest injury occurred on December 4 while with the San Francisco 49ers. The veteran left a regular-season game against the Miami Dolphins with a foot injury. It was later revealed that he suffered a broken foot and would miss significant time. However, it wasn't believed to require surgery.
That led to the emergence of Brock Purdy, the seventh-round draft pick that took the NFL by storm. He led the 49ers to the NFC Championship Game before suffering an injury himself.
Garoppolo remained on the 49ers' 53-man roster through all that. The 49ers
Is 49ers QB Trey Lance getting better? And is it because of his new teacher? One expert shares his thoughts
Sometimes who is teaching is as important as what is being taught
Earlier this week, when the San Francisco 49ers opened up an OTAs session to the media, most of the eyes, in person and online, were on third-year quarterback Trey Lance's new delivery. Lance, of course, had been working with QB guru, Jeff Christensen, and thanks to some leaked footage of Lance throwing with Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, along with a very well-timed piece by Matt Barrows in The Athletic, there was plenty of
