He deserves a ring.

Kyle has done a great job working with Lynch rebuilding the Niners not once but twice. When he first arrived, we were awful. They turned it around. We had a few chances but came up short and now he rebuilt us again with a great set of rookies and some promising young players.

My only "gripe" would be of his coaching was causing a lot of our injuries over the years. I know some have been freak injuries and some are just part of the game but for us to constantly be in the top 5 in injuries does seem like there is something we are doing wrong.

The fact that no one can actually pinpoint what that "something" is suggests otherwise, IMO.

Let's try to bring this back to reality talking about Kyle.

We have probably our toughest stretch of games coming up and now no Bosa. Let's see how we attack a pretty good set of teams in these next 3 games.

Hopefully we can take out the Jags at home and get ready for the quick turnaround and a Rams team that's playing some pretty good football unfortunately.

Im really just hoping to go 1-1 for the next 2 games, but not end of the world if we go 0-2.

Shanny / Saleh will have them ready and focused

Shaguars will be our warmup game (life without Bosa) before going into Levis south to face Lambs and hostile territory in Tampa... then the real tests begin. They won't be taking Shags lightly, hence they might blow them out. Even with no Bosa, they're capable of (at least) 1 win on their two game road trip.

That would be wonderful to see but until we have the offense(hopefully) at full strength I find it hard to see us blowing out a team with the talent Jags have. They're currently the 5th overall defense in points allowed and 10th in yards allowed. They're no pushover...but like I said I hope you're right. I'd love to not be a stress ball watching the game.

He deserves a ring.

Trent, Fred, George deserve rings if there is any karma in the NFL world. Just incredible players, people and leaders on and off the field. I pray all 3 of them get at least one ring before they hang them up.

There is no karma, it's ability and luck. We sadly have no luck.

You could say that about a lot of players that spend 10 years or more in the league and never win a title. 34 of the 59 SBs have been won by 7 teams. There are 12 teams that have never one and 4 more that have only 1 win. That means half the league has a total of only 4 victories. Add that up and that's a lot of players that never won a SB.

Has anybody actually put gps on the whole team? Are we not just having the most running due to scheme?

I'm not convinced it's not just the fact that every position on our team is having to run more every game due to the zone scheme. So many timing and pick plays that none of wrs can take any plays off and the linemen are running down field a lot more than other teams....
