San Francisco was walloped by Denver in its last game on Oct. 19, but had a bye week to recover and heal. Plus, the 49ers had whipped the Rams in St. Louis back on Oct. 13, 31-17, when quarterback Colin Kaepernick threw for 343 yards, three touchdowns and was not sacked once.Now the 49ers had the very injury-depleted Rams at their place.No matter how "salty" the 2-5 Rams might be, it appeared they'd be no match for the 4-3 49ers.This time, however, the 49ers offense could never establish any offensive consistency.

One thing is clear: Ian Rapoport expects Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel to be on the San Francisco 49ers roster when the team takes the field in Week 1 of the 2024 season.
