San Francisco 49ers Season Recap

But one following anonther. San Francisco started the season with Lance. And like last year, the start of the season wasn’t particularly good. There is a defeat once morest Chicago. Although they manage to defeat the Seahawks in week two, Lance is injured so badly that his season is over. Jimmy Garoppolo , partially disrespected before the season, is now good enough once more. But once morest Denver, the Goldhelme lost 11-10 in a terribly bad game. Wins over the Rams and Panthers bring hope, but defeats come in Atlanta and once morest the Chiefs. A win over the Rams goes four-four into Bye Week. In week 10, the Chargers are beaten. A week later, Jimmy G puts in an outstanding performance once morest the Arizona Cardinals. The week following, he’s not that strong once morest New Orleans, but the defense doesn’t allow any points at all. In general, this develops into the strength of the team. But the offensive can also convince, including Christian McCaffrey, who was committed following week 6. Tender Super Bowl dreams are ripening in San Francisco. But when I also injured Jimmy G in week 13, the season seems to have gone to hell. And there comes this man from Iowa once more. He manages to defend a win over Miami, but in week 14 he would have to face the greatest of all time. However, if you didn’t know anything regarding football, and this was the first game you’d ever watch, and someone predicted you were going to have one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time once morest a rookie, you probably would have said followingwards : Understood. I understand. This Tom Brady is this rookie and this Brock Purdy is the legend. 35 to 7 the beginner destroys the legend. The tale continues with victories in Seattle, once morest the Commanders, once morest the Raiders and once morest Arizona. For the first time in 25 years, San Francisco wins all games once morest division rivals. And it gets even better because in the playoffs, you beat Seattle for the third time. A victory over the Cowboys follows. A whole town dreams that the Cinderella fairy tale regarding the young man from Iowa can come true. But unfortunately he got injured playing the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship Game. The fairy tale does not have a happy ending.

Surprise: Anything other than Brock Purdy at this point would be nonsense. Who at number 262 as so-called “Mr. Irrelevant” – as the last draft pick is called – and makes the best of all time look like a rookie deserves this praise.

Disappointment: It’s probably a bit unfair, but Trey Lance hasn’t really impressed so far. Yes, that was also due to injuries. But he has to be very careful not to become a bust.

How were the rookies?

EN Drake Jackson still had three sacks.

RB Davis Price had six games, 34 catches and 99 yards

WR Danny Gray only caught one ball.

OT Spencer Burford was rather moderate.

CB Samuel Womack was able to force a fumble.

OT Nick Zakelj didn’t play too much.

DT Kalia Davis was injured before the start of the season.

QB Brock Purdy impressed with 13 touchdowns, 4 interceptions and a 107.3 rating

That was good: the defense was simply outstanding. You allowed the fewest points, you allowed the fewest yards.

Overall, they got 20 interceptions, a value that only the Pittsburgh Steelers otherwise achieve.

Nick Bosa delivered 18.5 sacks

That was bad: It might sound odd in the face of Brock Purdy, but if you think regarding him, the draft wasn’t actually that good. Aside from Drake Jackson, to a lesser extent, no other draft pick was able to draw lasting attention.

Strange: three of the four seasons defeats were once morest pretty bad teams. In addition to losing to Kansas City, there were defeats to Chicago, Denver and Atlanta.

What should you do? In fact, there is still a small weakness on the defensive: because although they conceded the fewest yards in the league, they were only in 20th place in terms of these statistics once morest the pass. There is still room for improvement here. A DB would certainly make sense.
