Credit where credit is due. They played really well today in all facets.

Dude had his unit have a day. Gotta give him a ton of credit. His unit by far, was the most consistent and played at a high level.

Since he listens to NFL inner circles and such it stands to reason that he listens to the Command (N version).

Re-watching the game...ST had a damn good game! First blocked FG in a long time...then, the good tackle to prevent the 1st Down after the ball bounced right to the Eagles player. Wish with some good work pinning the Eagles back...Sherfield making a play at the goal line to keep the punt from becoming a touchback. Gould was solid again, too.

Did I hear right?
Last kickoff was not done short because Hightower respected K Hill?
1, I thought he said they could not kick it to EZ every time....which they did.
2. Who is this Hill guy and why is he respected over Rodgers/Adams.
3. Are they playing not to lose?
I realize this is not where the game was lost but this "company guy" is all kinds of wrong. I revoke my praise from last week.

Especially when STeams played so well last week. The coaching has got to be making the players ask a few hard questions of them. Buck stops with KS

I didn't understand why this guy was given praise last week. I have a broken watch that's right twice a day. Doesn't mean it's not broken. I'll give Ryans some leeway as he is a rookie. This guy doesn't deserve any slack.

Hoping that something had awakened. Fool me once....

Why the 49ers chose not to kick short and potentially take more time off the clock before the Packers' game-winning drivehttps://t.co/ImpiPpcPUE pic.twitter.com/EuRiTzJ7tz

I'm still waiting for the day we fake a punt. His ability to do a trick play is a reason Mitch was drafted so early yet we haven't even tried it once. Inexcusable imo. Now I'm not saying every game but there definitely is a time and place.

Kyle is no Ted Lasso and Hightower is no assistant like Nate.

When Hightower is outperforming Shanahan and Demeco you know you're in deep trouble.

Would like to have seen a worm burner (grubber) on our last K.O., besides a fake punt. One thing for sure. When we do a fake punt, NOBODY will be looking for it. And that, in itself, is a shame.
but before we try a grubber in a really close game, we need to use it when we are ahead in one we have won already,…if nothing else to see what is the reaction of the other team, and where does the ball end up. Time for both grubber and fake punt, coach.

Unit still woefully unprepared for anything outside the norm.
Which always bites us at least once a year under this dude.
