DE Nick Bosa "Smaller Bear" NO POLITICS

Until we can prove to be competitive with packers, lions, eagles, rams, Tampa we should temper these notions that we are a player away from being a true Super Bowl contender. Trading valuable picks will disrupt our rebuild. Enjoy the wins now, enjoy watching the young dogs get better. Yes we are 3-0 but does anyone really think we can run with the nfc top teams? I just don't see it yet. We will get there but it's going to take a bit of time. Be patient.

Well, 2 of our next 3 games are against the Rams and Bucs, so we may have more of an idea where we stand, though it's not clear if Purdy will be back for those games or if Kittle will be back for the Bucs. You're right though, until we show we can compete with the top NFC teams like the Bucs, Rams, Seahawks, GB, or Detroit, it doesn't make sense to trade for anyone.

That helps offset some of the 5th year option that comes with Thibodeaux.

With all the dead cap we ate this year and the 7M in cap relief, I would think we'd be in good position for FA next year but I don't see any good targets

Good. We have to just draft n chill for a year or 2

Found this article floating around... not as good as Bosa but dude is durable and still good for 35 yr old

Aints not going anywhere, maybe they have a swing tackle we can use too

Cam doesn't seem like a guy who would want to play elsewhere

Maybe. But he is from California.

Trey, Cam or Thibodeaux would be very good options

This is his best chance of getting to playoffs and maybe SB if luck is on our side

Come home big guy

Indeed. Plus with Saleh, he'll utilize the heck out of any one of them and get their best play

Niners don't need to panic right now because they are 3-0. So they can wait before deciding to make a trade or not. Plus no team is selling this early. Wait for closer to the trade deadline.

The entire medical team said they were sure there was nothing wrong with Bosa's ACL based on *their* tests but the MRI said it's a clean tear LMFAO

If this doesn't show the Niners medical team has no clue what they are doing then idk what does. Just diggin in their ass all day

I'm pretty sure an MRI exists because it shows you stuff that other tests don't.

that's a completely clueless take,... from someone who has no f*cking idea,... to begin with it's not *their* test, it's an ordinary test that every team does in the moment,... which needs to be corroborated with another test, like a MRI, every and each time,...

I cannot understand this controversy about the medical staff or about what Shanahan said,... he just explained what was happenning,... he said that the first test made in the same field was negative BUT that a MRI was needed to be sure,... he never said that everything ws OK and that Bosa didn't tear his ACL,... he very clearly said that the first test was negative but as is always the case, another test, in this case an MRI made in a proper place like a hospital, needed to be made
