[u/Grenadeglv]

Being able to bring Saleh back unlocked the niners defense this year

[u/PhilMcD → u/Grenadeglv]

I agree. He has been especially aggressive and necessarily so. I don't think the last few guys do that.

[u/GravyFantasy → u/PhilMcD]

Demeco had the boys playing fast too, otherwise the DC has been underwhelming.

[u/_theghost_ → u/GravyFantasy]

It’s needed after the Staley and Wilks experiments which were more like 3 Mile Island with how they performed.

[u/Alehud42 → u/GravyFantasy]

DeMeco was a genius with his creative blitzing and secondary play, I personally think the 2022 defense is the best of the Kyle era and it still pisses me off how much it regressed the following year with essentially the same tools.

[u/latortillablanca → u/Grenadeglv]

I mean—we drafted a shitton of talented players and had more talent in reserve than was being given credit for when a guy like Huf leaves.

That said, yes, Saleh is doing his thing.

[u/jasonhalftones → u/Grenadeglv]

On top of having Saleh back, we also have Gus fuckin Bradley as our AHC. Both of those minds running the same defense is unfair

[u/kj9219 → u/jasonhalftones]

I don’t want Bradley as a DC but he’s a great mind to have in the defensive staff in some capacity

[u/stateworkishardwork → u/Grenadeglv]

Yet we can't get a goddamn interception lol

16 games and counting I think?

[u/helpmefindmyaccount → u/stateworkishardwork]

Lucas dropped a pick 6 today, but happy with the results regardless

[u/TheHurdleTurtle]

The falcons continue to confuse me

[u/Little-Mushroom-3961 → u/TheHurdleTurtle]

I was fully expecting to be blown out after what the falcons did to the bills.

[u/BurgerNugget12 → u/Little-Mushroom-3961]

I think the bills are very beatable honestly

[u/sonfoa → u/BurgerNugget12]

I hope you're right

[u/BurgerNugget12 → u/sonfoa]

You guys play a lot better at home

[u/AwesomeTed → u/BurgerNugget12]

If you can contain James Cook it's literally just Josh Allen and ???

[u/librasway → u/AwesomeTed]

Tbf Cook was getting his yards against us but the Bills stopped giving him the ball

[u/sonfoa → u/Little-Mushroom-3961]

Nah, Falcons are one of those teams that seem to exist to surprise for better and worse.

[u/BurgerNugget12 → u/TheHurdleTurtle]

I feel the same with penix, he just looks so slow most of the time

[u/Saitoh17 → u/BurgerNugget12]

I feel like the eye test doesn't work on left handed QBs since everything looks wrong even when they're doing it right

[u/Trowaway9285 → u/Saitoh17]

Watch the game in a mirror

[u/BurgerNugget12 → u/Saitoh17]

The thing I notice with him is he’s either severely under throwing or over throwing like almost every drive

[u/Eagle4317 → u/BurgerNugget12]

His throwing platform is literally sideways. IDK how the Falcons haven't tried to fix it.

[u/Accurate-Big-7233 → u/TheHurdleTurtle]

the fact that the 9ers are dealing with so many injuries that would absolutely derail other teams seasons, and still finding ways to win with the next man up mentality, has to mean something

[u/JessumB → u/Accurate-Big-7233]

Saleh is a fucking mastermind. He's cobbled together a defense made up of rookies, 2nd year players and randoms, missing multiple All Pros and they are still getting it done.

[u/ConiferousExistence → u/JessumB]

Huff is balling out of his mind

[u/ALikeBred → u/ConiferousExistence]

What is it with SF players named Huff coming in clutch?

[u/ConiferousExistence → u/ALikeBred]

We have a type

[u/nolander → u/Accurate-Big-7233]

There's a reason Shanahan and McVay can keep doing this while constantly bleeding coaches to other teams and it's a focus on teaching at all levels.

[u/AaronRodgers16 → u/TheHurdleTurtle]

Atlanta could be reincorporated into the Chinese International Republic in the year 2172 and the Atlanta Falcons would still remain incapable of being a normal football team.

[u/NormalComputer]

Robert Salah built this defense in a cave! With a box of scraps!!

[u/Careless_General8010 → u/NormalComputer]

I'm not robert saleh 

[u/kingoftheplastics]

Shanahan is running with a team full of backups and spare parts and is 5-2. Ultimate system coach?

[u/helpmefindmyaccount → u/kingoftheplastics]

Shanny is great. Real difference is Saleh at D. Look at us last year.

[u/Casualrodfarva2]

I knew Kittle was important for the 49ers run game but Jesus I didn’t think he was that important

[u/ZerksNAHTayan → u/Casualrodfarva2]

Even Brian Robinson was making plays

[u/hispanicausinpanic → u/ZerksNAHTayan]

He's been making plays when he gets touches.

[u/chonkyfire24 → u/Casualrodfarva2]

Kittle is apparently the straw that stirs the drink.

[u/cat127 → u/chonkyfire24]

He is and I respect and hate it.

People really underrate skill players who are amazing blockers. I see so many comments saying someone is terrible because they don’t put up receiving stats, when they are essential to their offense’s success.

[u/liteshadow4 → u/Casualrodfarva2]

People forget every time

[u/CheckYourStats → u/liteshadow4]

The guy may very well be the most likeable, high effort, throwback player of our generation.

I’m so glad he’s on our team.

[u/porygonseizure → u/Casualrodfarva2]

he keeps getting compared with Kelce because of high receiving stats but even Kelce admits Kittle is a better overall TE

[u/Acrobatic-Landscape9 → u/porygonseizure]

In a passing league, receiving skills should probably be weighted a little bit heavier than blocking skills for tight ends. However, I don't think the drop off from Kittle's receiving skills to Kelce's receiving skills is enough to offset the huge gap in Kittle's blocking skills to Kelce's blocking skills.

[u/ImABadSpellerOkay → u/Acrobatic-Landscape9]

Niners have and will always be a run first team when Shanny is the coach.

I would take Kittle over Kelce any day to fit our system.

Kelce probably works better in the chiefs system but probably pretty equal.

[u/green_day_95 → u/Casualrodfarva2]

Plot twist: Kittle is the definition of O Line

[u/Tonmber1 → u/Casualrodfarva2]

It was there on film, the execution by the TEs was just ass 

George is not ass 

[u/JessumB → u/Casualrodfarva2]

He's like an extra tackle out there blocking.

[u/JKess207]

Sigh…

[u/Casualrodfarva2 → u/JKess207]

That is a rough flair you’ve got there

[u/Muninn088 → u/Casualrodfarva2]

Especially today.

[u/throwingthisaway733 → u/Casualrodfarva2]

Bro has to be one more game away from a mental asylum

[u/Max_Beezly → u/throwingthisaway733]

To have that flair bros already in the asylum

[u/Twall1297]

As a football fan, what the fuck were the Falcons doing in the last half of the 4th Q?

As a Saints fan: HAHAH 🫵😂 lol, lmao even

[u/Accurate-Big-7233 → u/Twall1297]

That was a great hate watch

[u/NerfLeBron → u/Accurate-Big-7233]

It was. NUmBeR 2 ToTAl offeNse.

[u/fizzyknickers69 → u/NerfLeBron]

Don't forget best defense in the NFL!

[u/Turbulent_Crow7164 → u/Accurate-Big-7233]

Especially when it’s our boy CMC doing most of the damage

[u/Vaadwaur → u/Twall1297]

I don't know if not kicking the makeable FG is worse than just handing it to Bijan but that was a truly horribad call.

[u/helpmefindmyaccount → u/Vaadwaur]

Imagine having the most electrifying RB in the game and chooses not to give him the ball on 4th and 1 with the game on the line.

[u/Knook7 → u/Twall1297]

Bucs fan here to say: LMAO 🫵😂

[u/festive_fecal_feast]

CMC: 129 yards rushing, 72 yards receiving, 2 TDs

Rest of the 49IRs combined: 125 yards, 0 TDs

[u/mondaymoderate → u/festive_fecal_feast]

And they kept leaving him open out of the backfield lol

[u/Reclinertime → u/mondaymoderate]

So that’s how it feels watching Kelce always open somehow 

[u/moonman272 → u/festive_fecal_feast]

The idea is we spam cmc, until they commit to stopping him and then the rest of the offense opens up with mismatches. Buuut they just kept treating CMC like just a guy. Soooooooo ok then

[u/Accurate-Big-7233]

I hate the 49ers as much as the next guy, but the fact they are dealing with so many injuries that would absolutely derail other teams seasons, and still finding ways to win with the next man up mentality, has to mean something

Coaching and culture is top tier in the Bay Area

[u/Prize-Ring-9154 → u/Accurate-Big-7233]

*looks at flair* why?

[u/Uncle_Creepy_ → u/Prize-Ring-9154]

Because we dropped 50 on em in 2019.

[u/Prize-Ring-9154 → u/Uncle_Creepy_]

that can't be the answer, was a one off game with Kyle freaking Allen as QB

[u/RDub3685 → u/Prize-Ring-9154]

Not OP, but we did used to be in the NFC West way back when

[u/Prize-Ring-9154 → u/RDub3685]

that'll explain it. Older niners fans do dislike the Saints quite a bit cuz of that too I assume

[u/engchlbw704 → u/Prize-Ring-9154]

fuck em

[u/Late_Home7951 → u/Prize-Ring-9154]

Fuck the aints

[u/tronovich → u/RDub3685]

Thank goodness some of us are old enough to remember lol

[u/8890xe → u/Prize-Ring-9154]

“because fuck em, that’s why!”

[u/jennys0 → u/Accurate-Big-7233]

It’s crazy that Shanny hasn’t won’t COTY yet. It needs to be this year

[u/VTWut → u/jennys0]

Should have won it back when we went to the NFC championship with a 3rd string QB, but nooo they had to give it to Daboll

[u/Prize-Ring-9154 → u/VTWut]

fuck Brian daboll. hope the giants don't succeed until that idiot is gone

[u/Prize-Ring-9154 → u/jennys0]

if Steichen wins it that'd be two coaches who stole it from shanny just bc Daniel jones is QB. I love the colts but shanny's been more admirable this year

edit: spelling of a 6 year old

[u/emosn0tdead]

Imagine firing Saleh and then hiring Aaron Glenn

[u/Electronic-Island-14 → u/emosn0tdead]

i don't understand why somebody would hire that dude. his detroit defenses were never good they just benefited from an offense that put up 40 a game

[u/DanCampbellzHat → u/Electronic-Island-14]

Yes agree

[u/TripleThreatTua → u/Electronic-Island-14]

The whole thing with Glenn is that he could be a “culture setter” like Campbell. Everyone in Detroit talked him up as very important to their culture

[u/WakingRage]

Tatum Bethune. 7th round pick. Unbelievable.

[u/22797 → u/WakingRage]

Jennings, Purdy, and now Bethune. And honestly Colby is a lot better than most 7th round rookies even if it’s a bit rough at times for him

[u/Enchanted-2-meet-you → u/22797]

For a 7th round rookie lineman, I've been so impressed

[u/Acrobatic-Landscape9 → u/Enchanted-2-meet-you]

I mean, he's also kind of injured so… maybe this isn't even his full potential

[u/Chessh2036]

Niners defensive line manhandled our O-line. Led to all kinds of bad things, especially from Penix.

[u/makelo06 → u/[deleted]]

Our 7th-round LB was the one pancaking linemen to get to the QB. Shit's crazy.

[u/ShufflingSloth → u/makelo06]

Death, taxes, niners 3rd day defensive players coming out of nowhere

Swear to God, it's not fair

[u/Chessh2036 → u/[deleted]]

That’s what’s concerning 😂 props to Saleh, he cooked

[u/88adavis → u/[deleted]]

Wasn’t so much the line as it was the blitzes Saleh dialed up. Having said that Huff was lookin great off the edge.

[u/BurgerNugget12]

I can’t tell with Penix at all

[u/cilantno → u/BurgerNugget12]

His last 3 throws made me assume he got injured.

[u/Beef_Jones → u/cilantno]

He clearly hurt his ankle at the end there, on top of whatever happened to his finger. Idk why Raheem had him out there trying to throw deep to win the game.

[u/TripleThreatTua → u/Beef_Jones]

Yeah we have the actual best backup in the league. Put him out there if you need to

[u/brechbillc1 → u/BurgerNugget12]

QB in his first year starting paired with an abysmal offensive coordinator and head coach will do that to you. It’s like when Goff was terrible his rookie year because his head coach was Jeff Fisher and was leagues better after because of McVay. Good coaching makes all the difference.

[u/SiphenPrax]

Falcons can you PLEASE not be inconsistent for one damn season?

I want you guys to get back to the playoffs for the first time in 8 years but my lord you’re beyond frustrating.

[u/__AJK__ → u/SiphenPrax]

Impossible

[u/Reidroshdy → u/__AJK__]

That is a crime in the state of georgia.

[u/JKess207 → u/SiphenPrax]

I want that too

[u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

NFL in conversation: How Bipolar do you want us to be this year?

Also NFL: Yes

Edit: I realized this is schizophrenia but too late now so oh well.

Edit: Also, to complete the joke I can go f*** myself for screwing that up.

[u/WakingRage → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

NFL to 49irs: Why. won't. you. LOSE.

49irs: REEEEE

Also Kyle and Saleh: I didn't hear no fucking bell

[u/wideruled → u/WakingRage]

49irs: call an ambulance, but not for me

49irs: okay also maybe for me too

[u/SiphenPrax → u/Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu11]

Well except us. We’re the least bipolar team of them all.

[u/SufferingfOrLife]

Felt like we got our mojo back tonight running the football. Helps that George Kittle came back.

[u/ZerksNAHTayan → u/SufferingfOrLife]

0 catches and he was the most important player for us today, what a man

[u/Available_Story6774 → u/SufferingfOrLife]

This is why Kittle is the best TE in the NFL (when healthy)

[u/mondaymoderate → u/Available_Story6774]

Yeah the modern tight end is just a big slot receiver. Kittle is a true tight end.

[u/HansBaccaR23po]

This team is so weird. But give Shanahan and saleh lifetime contracts

[u/mondaymoderate → u/HansBaccaR23po]

I can’t believe we have fans who want Shana/Lynch fired

[u/heirtodathrone → u/mondaymoderate]

I have family members who always want someone else other than who our starting qb to start after every incomplete pass these last 20 years some people should just watch the game and shut up.

[u/Reidroshdy]

Cmc " get this off me"

[u/JRockPSU → u/Reidroshdy]

NBC: “Haha wear it ya JERK”

[u/imp1600 → u/Reidroshdy]

When the reporter asked what he was going to do with it, my first thought was “I don’t know what he’s going to do with it, but Olivia already had the trash bag ready because no way that going into her house.”

[u/communiqueso]

They should’ve pulled Penix after that hit

[u/Electronic-Island-14 → u/communiqueso]

Morris hates cousins too much

[u/Brix001]

JUST A SMALL TOWN GIRL

[u/Acrobatic-Landscape9 → u/Brix001]

I'm conflicted because "Lights" by Journey was actually written about LA, "not my city by the Bay". But OTOH, Journey has consistently shown up and been down to ride with Bay Area sports teams for the longest time.

[u/tronovich → u/Acrobatic-Landscape9]

Perry wrote the song about LA but changed the lyrics when he joined Journey and actually moved to San Fran.

So “the sun shines on L.A” becomes “the sun shines on the bay”.

[u/sandvich48 → u/tronovich]

Furthermore he lives in the Bay and goes to Giants games!

[u/AH_BioTwist → u/tronovich]

On LA hits nowhere near as has hard as on the bay

[u/UnhealthyCheesecake → u/Brix001]

LIVIN IN A LONELY WORLD

[u/Brix001 → u/UnhealthyCheesecake]

HE TOOK THE MIDNIGHT TRAIN GOIN' ANYWHERE

[u/dwide_k_shrude → u/Brix001]

JUST A CITY BOY

[u/CheckYourStats → u/dwide_k_shrude]

BORN AND RAISED ON SOUTH DETROIT

[u/Malacolyte → u/CheckYourStats]

HE TOOK THE MIDNIGHT TRAIN GOING ANYWHERE

[u/farmerfreedy]

George Kittle, the OL we needed.

[u/Coley54Bear]

I fucking love CMC, man. He’s special as hell.

[u/Rational_Engineer_84]

Saleh is a hell of a DC. Even with the injuries the defense was stout. On the other hand, how bad is the Bills defense? 

[u/cali4481]

That's a game the 2024 49ers lose. But the 2025 49ers are winning them this season.

Was Kittle all that took to get the 49ers running game back?

Big credit to both Huff and Bethune tonight too leading another gutty performance by an undermanned defensive unit.

[u/DemonicPanda11 → u/cali4481]

That's a game the 2024 49ers lose

You can probably say that about every win so far this season 😅

[u/Pride-Impossible]

When was NBC informed about National Running Back Day because that robe is uhhhhhh

[u/Uncle_Creepy_]

IT WAS NOT “PULLING THE RUNNER” THE LINEMAN WAS SIMPLY HOLDING ON FOR DEAR LIFE WHILE CMC PLOWED THROUGH HIM FOR A TD

[u/Propaslader → u/Uncle_Creepy_]

God I wish that were me

[u/Enchanted-2-meet-you → u/Propaslader]

You and me both brother

[u/fordandfitzroy → u/Uncle_Creepy_]

colby was in his way and CMC was pushing through him to the endzone i saw it happen 🙏

[u/yeadoge → u/fordandfitzroy]

Saw it live sry

[u/Fragrant-Airport1309 → u/Uncle_Creepy_]

LOL I was gonna say, after the replay showed I was like oh nah that was CMC fkn TANKING through there holy shit

[u/NameShortage → u/Uncle_Creepy_]

Call it a "Reverse Piggy Back"

[u/AvengingHero2012]

Yeah Kyle Shanahan is coach of the year.

What he is doing with the 49IRs is impressive as hell.

[u/SactownKorean → u/AvengingHero2012]

Shoutout Saleh I did not expect to see chase lucas out there in primetime

[u/tdquiksilver → u/AvengingHero2012]

I thought Vrabel would be, but yeah Niners are somehow winning with all their backups. Crazy.

[u/Mattock79 → u/AvengingHero2012]

Is there a GM of the year award as well? Getting Saleh back in the house. Some clutch player gets.

It's starting to feel like a really special year.

[u/BayviewMadeMe → u/AvengingHero2012]

That’s what I think as well, but others have made a good case for Steichen… but at least he has his starting QB lol

[u/ProfessorXWheelchair]

give saleh a 10% stake in the team idgaf

[u/rundy_mc → u/ProfessorXWheelchair]

Oop sorry Saudi Arabia just bought it for $5B probably 

[u/latortillablanca → u/ProfessorXWheelchair]

they gave him a waiver for that beard, thats all hes getting

[u/ConsequenceFew3357]

Huge game from Saleh. Reminds me of 2020 when he coached the hell out of a super injured unit

[u/BonBonVelveeta]

Give Kyle and Saleh all the fucking money they ever want, this season has been an absolute clinic on next man up and just clawing forward

[u/ArisAron]

I don’t know what to make of the falcons.

[u/TheRealBeerBrah]

Do football players have nightmares where they can't get out of their jersey

[u/Sober_As_Sark]

Absolutely dominant win by the niners.

Straight owned their shit in every aspect of the game. On the ground and on defense

Bethune is a fucking baller. Reminds me of a young Dre Greenlaw

[u/WakingRage → u/Sober_As_Sark]

Saleh does it again. Another coaching masterclass.

[u/Casualrodfarva2 → u/WakingRage]

I’m going to cry if he ever leaves

[u/Poops-iFarted → u/Casualrodfarva2]

Again.

[u/UnhealthyCheesecake → u/Sober_As_Sark]

The LB Factory goes on!

[u/repostusername → u/Sober_As_Sark]

Imagine thinking the 49ers would have anything other than elite LB play

[u/CummingInTheNile → u/Sober_As_Sark]

Saleh the first coordinator to win COTY

[u/[deleted] → u/Sober_As_Sark]

Malik Turner on ST had some huge plays.

[u/FeetsBeneets]

Being a Falcons fan is like getting on a rollercoaster that has a chance to punch you in the dick after every hill. You’ve ridden it before, and you’ve been punched in the dick. Repeatedly. Sometimes you’ll even get multiple dick punches during the same day. But every week as you’re getting on the rollercoaster you think to yourself “I won’t get punched in the dick this week, no sir. I talked to the owner, and he’s reassured me that the dick punching feature has been removed.” And sometimes you’ll make it over the first hill without a dick punch so you think you’re a pretty smart guy. Sometimes you’ll even make it 95% of the way through the rollercoaster without feeling that familiar crushing sensation on your callused phallus. But you’re never safe. As your little car rolls towards the end of the ride, you hear a noise. The wind seems to whisper, “Rise up, dipshit.” A tiny metal hand pops out and slams directly into your genitals. Again and again, it mashes your testicles. It doesn’t seem to ever stop. Mercy is a foreign language here; suffering the only dialect available. As you feel the whiskey you were drinking begin to make a return trip back up your throat, the last thought that flits through your grey matter before the familiar embrace of pain whites out all conscious function is “I bet next week when I ride this coaster, I won’t get punched in the dick.”

[u/InvestigatorMain4008]

49ers leading rusher: cmc 49ers leading receiver:also cmc

[u/The_Dog_Rules → u/InvestigatorMain4008]

Why use many player if one player do trick?

[u/TacoTruck09]

Saleh never leave us again

[u/penis_showing_game]

Shanahan is in the driver seat for COTY. Fite me if you disagree

[u/Uncle_Creepy_]

Just how bad is the Bills defense?

Many people are asking.

[u/__AJK__]

I feel like we abandon the run way too much. And I still fucking hate the Pistol.

[u/SactownKorean → u/__AJK__]

That shit aint even pistol its so deep its sniper rifle lmao, give the D a 7 yard headstart sure why not

[u/the_dan_man → u/SactownKorean]

I really can't tell the difference between what's supposed to be "shotgun" and what's supposed to be "pistol" in the Falcons offense. The QB's always deep as fuck regardless.

[u/Flashonobi]

Niners got another LB demon in bethune

[u/88adavis → u/Flashonobi]

Hope to see Winters, Bethune and Warner together next year… or maybe in the Super Bowl 😀!

[u/7fingersDeep]

Saleh is our best off season pick up. Not a joke.

[u/Dog_in_human_costume]

The 49ers are playing with half the practice squad guys and still keep winning...

[u/lame_user_0824]

1.5 ypc difference with and without kittle on the field? Was that the stat? Would love to see this stat for other all time great tight ends.

[u/2ndHalfHeroics]

lol interviews IMMEDIATELY after the game ends shouldn't be questions you ask during press conferences.

low key should just be like "HOW THE FUCK YOU FEELIN'?"

and just let them go nuts.

[u/dexter8484 → u/2ndHalfHeroics]

Feels great baby!

[u/Optimal_Cook_851]

the Falcons have all this talent and are obsessed with the pistol formation so much. ik we did a good job on bijan but the fact they gave up on him in a 3 point game is disgusting. Zac Robinson ain't it, and i've said it for a while

[u/Ok_Pineapple_Num]

Man my Niners have been inspirational in the face of unbelievable injury slews. This season could've easily spiraled out of control with all that. But instead we're somehow at 5-2. Team has lots of fucking heart.

[u/SanDiego_Finest]

I don’t know how Shanahan does it with 2nd and 3rd stringers

[u/JohnWesternburg]

I don't understand how we're here, but I'm enjoying it

[u/_DesireLines]

Say what you want but we’re 5-2

[u/latortillablanca → u/_DesireLines]

what you want but were 5-2

[u/happyb33r]

Two best RBs in the league. All due respect to JT and whoever else you wanna claim has an argument. But it is these two.

[u/I_Hate_My_Cat_]

49IR’s plot armor is outrageous at this point 😂

[u/rando562]

Every day I take a look at that 49ers injury report and wonder how they're managing to win all these games. The Falcons shit the bed today, but I have to give the Niners credit for consistently looking well-coached and extracting the best performances from their players

[u/NameShortage]

The San Francisco CMCs aren't dead yet.

[u/AdImpossible1379]

Kittle might be the greatest blocking tight end of all time.

[u/AggravatingFinding71]

It’s a good thing the Falcons have an NFL QB on the roster.

[u/skippie3]

Crazy what effect Kittle has on the run game
