San Francisco 49ers (official thread)

Bosa, on Instagram, poked fun at the "America's team" label long associated with Dallas. It's the second-straight year in which Dallas saw its season end at the hands of San Francisco in the playoffs as a postseason rivalry that peaked in the 1990s has reignited. And now, San Francisco is in the NFC Championship Game for the third time in four years while Dallas has not even reached that stage since last winning it all in 1995.

"America's team strikes again," Bosa wrote in the caption of his post with images from Sunday's game.

49er great, Hall of Famer Charlie Krueger dies at 84 -

Charlie Krueger, Jan 28, 1937 – Feb. 5, 2021

Charlie Krueger was one of the longest serving members of the San Francisco 49ers, playing for the local National Football League team from 1959-73, but his wife of 48 years Kristin was the couple’s biggest football fan.

Krueger, a member of the College Football Hall of Fame for his career at Texas A&M playing for immortal coach Bear Bryant, passed Feb. 5 eight days after his 84th birthday at John Muir Hospital in Walnut Creek following a long illness.

Kris and Charlie Krueger moved to a new Regency Woods home in Clayton in 1975 after they opened Krueger Liquors on Clayton Rd. in Concord that year. They operated the business until 1989. The retired NFL star was a regular presence in the store unless “he was birding or on the backroads” when his wife ran things.

The couple met under less than romantic circumstances. They were each with friends at a Redwood City Hofbrau when Charlie, then a star defensive lineman for the 49ers, made a snide comment about Kurt Herbert Adler, the head of the San Francisco Opera. One of his friends informed the football player that Adler’s daughter Kris was sitting at the adjoining table.

He tried to apologize by saying he was in the process of removing his rather large foot from his mouth. They eventually married in 1972 with his 49er teammate Eddie Dove as best man at the Portola Valley ceremony.

Kris says, “I had four years of football and 44 years without.” After he retired Charlie Krueger rarely attended or even watched games on TV. Many times, fan Kris would relay game scores to her husband, who was a voracious reader.

R.I.P.

Former NFL Scout says “Any GM considering Trey Lance in the first round should be fired, on the spot.”​

It was pretty obvious to anyone who took the time to watch; In Trey's very first pre-season, he struggled with some incredibly fundamental offensive concepts that you should have made second nature for any GM justifying him as a 1st round pick. ( IIRC, it was failing to replacing the MIKE on a simple mesh-settle)

This is why I'll never understand the obsession in continuing to draft QBs that are plus athletes but little else. Sure, the kid has wheels, but this ain't 2002 anymore. Defenses field a ton of athletic ability front to back. And any NFL DC who wants to plant your ass in that pocket and force you to beat him that way, believe and trust it'll be done. Anthony Richardson last night is another prime example of this.

John Lynch is fortunate to have his position. Because these sorts of busts tend to cost people their jobs.

The guy has lead deep playoff runs with Jimmy G and Brock Purdy as his QB's, so in that sense I'm willing to give him a bit of a pass. His ability as a coach is pretty evident. As a talent evaluator? Maybe a bit of a different story, but it was clear from his time in CLE, he was no fan of Manziel.

So I can't help but feel it's a wash for him. As for Lynch? Since he took over he's 2 -4-1 as a GM for 1st round picks. (still on the fence about Aiyuk) But his top 5 record is not good, including the Lance pick and surrendering future draft capital.
