Jake Brendel

 

CBS predicts the 49ers will sign center Tyler Linderbaum to a 4-year $72M deal. Zero percent chance that happens. It's almost comical how badly fans want to move on from Brendel. He'll be the center in 2026, and I trust Forester has a plan for life after Jake.

Here is your 2026 EDGE Rusher class by TFL production. The target number for a potential first-round pick is 1.2 TFLs/game in a player's best season.

 

End Of Year Press Conference

Kyle Shanahan said Gus Bradley is the main internal candidate to replace Robert Saleh as the next defensive coordinator.

Nick Martin was cleared from the concussion protocol today.

John Lynch was asked what fractured Brandon Aiyuk’s relationship with the organization: “I wish I knew. I can’t help you there.” John Lynch says it's safe to say Brandon Aiyuk has played his last snap as a 49er.

Alfred Collins injured his shoulder against the Seahawks and it might require surgery during the offseason, per Kyle Shanahan.

Kyle Shanahan said they would like to re-sign Eddy Piñeiro, Thomas Morstead, and Jon Weeks if possible.

Nick Bosa is tracking towards a return in training camp, however there’s no official timetable for his return, per John Lynch.

John Lynch on the possibility of re-signing Jauan Jennings: “He plays the game the right way. We would love to have him back. We’ll work to accomplish that and see how it goes.”

State Of The Franchise

Playoffs Divisional Round: 49ers vs Seahawks

The Seahawks left the 49ers locker-room littered with their victory cigar butts and lingering odor like an animal marking its territory 2 weeks ago. Shortly afterwards, Brian Murphy II posted a picture of him tackling CMC on his Instagram story with the caption, "Little Ass Boy"!! 

Week 1 (with Williams): - 49ers had 7 carries for 43 yards (6.1 YPA) running behind Williams Week 18 (without Williams): - 49ers had 5 carries for 14 yards (2.8 YPA) running behind Pleasants

In Week 1: Purdy was 4-5, 120 yards on throws 20+ yards In Week 18: Purdy had 0 attempts of throws 20+ yards Result of no Pearsall and Williams to create spacing for shots downfield

Week 1 vs. Seattle: - 50% on third down -> 36 rush attempts Week 18 vs. Seattle: - 22% on third down -> 12 rush attempts

The Seahawks' rush defense is Top 5 in all stats (EPA, Success Rate, DVOA, Run Type). The only areas where there's some weaknesses are defending runs with motions at the snap: - YPC: #17 - Success rate: #22

- 16% success rate in the redzone against 49ers defense

Since becoming head coach, Niners have played 7 games in which they face a team they played within the last month. Kyle Shanahan is 5-2 in those games. He’s 3-0 when facing a team, a second time within 3 weeks. He'll be 4-0 as I have the 49ers magic continuing, 24-23. Shanahan was very smart in dangling that Warner carrot in front of his team if they can find a way to win this game. Go Niners!
