49ers News: Still coming down from the game https://t.co/jSjdxe92XM

David Lombardi

Here are the Rams' upcoming games... vs Cardinals at Raiders vs Chargers at Commanders at Cardinals BYE vs Packers vs Chiefs at 49ers You'd think they could string a bunch of wins together, despite their many flaws. But we'll see. Atrocious special teams is brutal to overcome

David Lombardi

The 49ers are 2.5 games ahead of the Seahawks and 3.5 games ahead of the Rams — through just 5 weeks! Unreal start

David Lombardi

The Rams, coronated by the casuals before a snap was played, have all the markings of a mediocre team. -They can protect the ball only vs bad defenses (tonight) -Their defense can't stop the run against bigger-time opponents (vs 49ers, tonight) -Their special teams is terrible

JosinaAnderson

Interesting.

Dugar, Michael-Shawn

NFC standings thru Week 5: 1) 49ers are very very good 2) Life in the NFC North is a grind.
