Can this f**king franchise do anything right?
f**k man. He was our best pass rusher besides lynch and maybe Buckner. I don't care if he sucks against the run. Just put him in on passing downs. Morons!!!
This team is a joke with one of the worst defenses ever constructed in SF (or the entire NFL for that matter) and we let a guy who might have some talent get taken. Nevermind that we just lost another couple players to the IR and could have activated Rush SMH.
Man what's worse, Marcus had to sit on the practice squad on one dumpster of an organization and now has to go and play on another dumpster of an organization. Worse year ever for Marcus.

Thanks baalke

Baalke. Thank O'Neil. He was too much of a p***y to ask him to be elevated. He flat out said he doesn't get involved with that? THAT'S YOUR JOB A-HOLE! It's YOUR job to alert your GM to the fact that Rush has made significant progress and you'd like to bring him up and give him a try as a situational pass rusher. Hopefully he'll suck ass for the Jags and end up being another Garrison Smith in the end. But if not.

The only time a GM makes a personnel move in-season is via trades (i.e. Kerley for Modkins) or when we've lost players...so players are elevated to the 53 to supplement the players lost to I.R. and/or new players are added to the PS or 53 if we're desperate (i.e. ILB). But there will always be a communication with the coaches on this process and who to bring in/elevate (i.e. with Kelly/Modkins and O'Neil). So yes, while O'Neil doesn't personally handle the 53 and personnel moves, HE very much has control over the 53 including his own inactives and actives and depth. All this idiot would have had to do was say the word. Why would ANY GM veto such a move esp. in a 1-13 season where we lack pass rush. LOL. It's not like Baalke didn't understand the importance of having a situational pass rusher.

LOL we fans cry about pass rush, then when you have someone noteworthy of some type of pass rush we cry that he can't stop the run. He may or may not turn out to be a good player but I would've like to see the outcome as a 49er.

Anyway moving on, the 49ers are within arms reach of getting Myles Garrett or a few pass rushers that have the potential to be better than Rush.
Could've given him a shot these past few games. It wouldn't have hurt. Another questionable non-move by Baalke.

I just wanna know, what could Marcus Rush have done to get on the 53 man roster?? Dude had 6 sacks in the Preseason, the only one who showed more potential was Rashard Robinson. So what more could he have done to earn a shot with the 49ers?
