This team is f**ked with a capital F
Sucks!

Maybe teams will start to sling it at will and the pass rush will dominate.

Now we're going to struggle every game vs the pass because we arguably have a top five set of worst outside corners in the league. I haven't seen the details yet but I'm sure it will be like you said, not on injured reserve but who knows when the f he will be back

The irony is that one of the very few qbs who is not able to take advantage of an awful pair of outside corners, plays for our team.
the most critical part of the season and we are fielding josh norman and dontae johnson as our starting corners, what a joke

in a perfect world it'd be verrett and mosely, goddamit
NOW we're F'd

You go into the season with two injury prone starters, then back them up with literally the 6 worst cornerbacks in the entire NFL, and you get…. As the joker would say…. What you deserve

Pathetic, I have been screaming all off-season to get cornerbacks in here and even before the trade deadline and nothing was done. This is what happens. Losses that would've been wins. The Green Bay game, the Colts game, this game, We could easily lose the Bengals game if we don't get a lot of pressure on Burrow. Got to love these injuries

I hear you, elguapo. The Niners may have drafted a couple of rookie CBs with promise but they're just that - rookies - and have already been exposed badly a few times as you mention. They should have signed in the offseason another quality vet like Casey Hayward...I know you've mentioned him a few times and I've always thought highly of his play. Another vet that could've not only produced but also helped the rookies in getting acclimated.

Now, this team is looking at more D. Johnson time with Moseley out....and against Burrow and WR Chase coming up this weekend.

Yeah Lott you're right about Hayward. Such an obvious choice and fix at cb. Then at the trade deadline there was Gillmore and Henderson. I guess our front office is not only content with bad corner play but they just don't value quality depth as well. Rookies doesn't always do the trick and as we saw that rookie corner helped cost us the Green Bay game and certainly this game. Donte Johnson is so bad but he did OK in the slot last year so I don't know if we're going to move K Williams to the outside but we will see.

That's a good point about possibly moving D. Johnson to the slot under the circumstances since he did pretty well all things considered last year.

K. Williams seems like he could play any CB position...just not sure they'd move him outside considering how effective he's been in the slot. Glad he's had a healthy stretch. Now, we just gotta hope for the best.

I played some CB back in junior high & high school...I'm a little older and on the tall side for a CB at 6'4"...I like to mix it up with WRs, though, and maybe they'd give me a tryout?

Nice Lott! I think you should make a visit to the practice facility.

At the very least, It should be entertaining watching Dontae and Norman trying to cover receivers without having defensive P.I called every two seconds.
Sucks big time he went down. Play the rookies & let them get some playing time now because we are going to need them down the stretch
Losing Mosley is an absolute killer! He's been playing at such high level and he's far & away the best cornerback on the team which is by far the biggest weakness on the team! We're in trouble!!
Other than Bosa & Ward, this was the one guy we couldn't afford to lose on defense....

It's an absolute killer because Lynch doesn't value the secondary like he should and now we're here. JaMar Chase, Tyler Boyd and Tee Higgins are gonna bend these CB's over.
49ers getting healthy at the right ti…..

So true. First Deebo, then Warner, then Moseley. This is a sick joke. Easy win vs Seattle with them in. Now we may lose to Cincinnati bc of the cb situation. Injuries are costing us games
Moseley at best could possibly return vs LA
But no guarantees either
