    Wow we are getting zero pressure with our “elite” defensive line. Also when Wilks calls a blitz it feels like he just does basic ass blitzes. No disguising them or mixed up fire zone blitzes. I know we used to complain about Saleh or Ryans having a LB covering a WR but we have elite LBs right now

      They’re getting decent pressure but Cousins is passing really well with guys in his face. I have no idea how in the world he slipped out of that one play

    Looking really out of sorts. The random timeouts (right after a 2 minute warning - what???), giving up pressure from a 3 man rush, more missed field goals… just ugh.

    Rough game, Vikings played very well. Was hoping Purdy can silence the critics but 2nd INT to seal the game is rough. Made great plays but those won’t get it done. Slow CMC = Slow Niners offense. Definitely better with Samuel. Next game.

    2and24 and they get a first down. The defense always seems weakest in the first half. Going to be interesting watching Purdy try and mount a comeback down 2 scores.

    I can’t believe Ward didn’t end up with that ball. We got some work to do in the second half.

    Moody’s not inspiring confidence and we’re shooting ourselves in the foot right now. On the plus side, Purdy is still looking great.

      Yeah, I don’t want to freak out over Moody, but three misses in a row is… Unfortunate.

    We needed a drive like that… Let’s hope the defense can get a stop!

      Looked like Jennings took too long with his move at the top of the route. Purdy was expecting him to cut right away, but they weren’t on the same page.
