Questions on the ‘Niners
Does latest game raise questions about the wisdom of signing Brock to anything approaching a max deal? I’ve heard some folks say that yesterday was what you get with Brock being Brock (i.e., without superior weapons around him). I’m not really buying that mainly because the Chiefs defense is that good. Still, he struggled. The question, in my mind, is what would another team pay him if he were a free agent? I don’t think it’s $50 or $60M/year, but whatever the number is, the ‘Niners should not exceed it.
The front office strikes me as uncertain/lacking vision when it both (i) drafted Pearsall in R1, and (ii) signed Aiyuk to big K extension. Not sure what “the plan” was (of course, whatever it was is now shelved with BA’s season-ending injury). Has anyone seen an explanation for that two-pronged appraoch? Was it just to field best team this year and we'll worry about out years later?
The ‘Niners are at real risk of not even making the playoffs, which is a depressing thought.
To be a good team, you have to be able to stop the run. SF is not a good team.
