Niners Have Advantage Over Seattle at Home
In the lead-up to Thursday night's 49ers-Seahawks clash at Levi's Stadium, two things stand out statistically.One is that for all the trouble the Niners have had with the Seahawks the past few seasons, San Francisco has dominated the series when it is the host.Last season, the 49ers beat Seattle 19-17 at home. In 2012, the 49ers won 13-6. In Jim Harbaugh's first season as head coach in 2011, the Niners prevailed 33-17. In fact, Seattle hasn't won in the Bay Area since 2008.So, when the Seahawks take the field at new Levi's Stadium on Thanksgiving (5:30 p.m.), few in the organization will have any memory of coming out of the Bay Area with a victory.In Seattle, of course, it's been a different story. There, the Seahawks have dominated. They delivered a beat-down on the 49ers during the regular season in 2013, then won the rematch in the NFC Championship Game. Under Harbaugh and Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, the clashes between the NFC West rivals have been among the most spirited in the NFL.Seahawks middle linebacker Bobby Wagner, in fact, says the games have featured a "physicality" that is special. He said the two teams' defenses have been "the most physical in the conference." So,...

Ian Rapoport sends clear message regarding 49ers' Brandon Aiyuk and Deebo Samuel
By David Bonilla

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. At this point, most probably feel that way. The fact that both stayed with the team throughout the draft clearly signals that general manager John Lynch and head coach Kyle Shanahan intend to retain their two talented receivers—at least for one more season.
"Week 1 of 2024, it looks like they both will be [on the roster]," Rapoport told guest host Tom Pelissero on "The Rich Eisen Show."
However, nothing in the NFL is ever certain.
"Now, look, crazy things can happen," Rapoport continued. "Someone loses a star receiver, they decide to give the 49ers something of value for this

Throughout the offseason, Kittle has had several conversations with Aiyuk and empathizes with his situation. Reflecting on his own contract negotiation in 2020 before reaching an agreement with the 49ers, Kittle offered his best advice to Aiyuk: "Hey, be patient."
Kittle added, "It's just kind of the way the Niners do things. I didn't
