Prior to the season... If you would have told me that the 2019 49ers would have a winning record, I'd have been happy.
If you'd have told me that we would make the playoffs... I'd have been ecstatic.
If you'd have told me that THIS team would go to the SUPERBOWL? I'd have died laughing.
But we DID have a winning record, we DID make the playoffs and damnit.. we DID go to the Superbowl. Yes, losing stings. It stings real bad. That said, we need to take stock of where this team has been in the last 5 years. We went from the highs of the Superbowl into some of the worst teams the NFL has ever seen. Jed then brought in Lynch and Shanahan... and we fooking roasted him for it. But Jed also did what he said he would do... stepped back and let football people do football.
And look where it got us. For that, I say thank you. I say thank you to Jed York, to Lynch, to Shanahan, to all the coaches and mostly to the players. YOU brought this once proud franchise back from the dead and into the light! YOU made us contenders again and did so in only 3 seasons.
NOW.. to the bandwagon fans...
Get the fook out of here. We don't need you. Levis was a ghost town until we started winning. Y'all were all up on Lynch and Shanny's jocks until we lost last night. Did we blow some plays? Yes. Were there some questionable play calls.. sure. But did any of you REALLY think a 10 point lead with a full quarter to play was safe against Mahomes? I sure didn't. We seen him against Houston and then against Tennessee. This was not a surprise. Shocking to watch yes, but a surprise no... So now y'all are up in here blaming Shanahan.. blaming Lynch and blaming Jimmy G for this loss. Perhaps we need to just give a nod to Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs and realise that ON THE NIGHT, they were in fact the better team. But being bandwagon fans, you are too stupid to comprehend that. So get the hell out.
I have been a fan since the Steve DeBerg days... I have seen the lowest of the lows and the highest of the highs, but one thing remains...
I am ALWAYS faithful.

oh no, I am not allowed to be mad at my team because it has lost the most important game of the season?

We had a great season. I never thought we get back to SB so soon. I just hope we don't become like Marve Levy's Bills.

Nobody is saying they aren't proud that the team made it to the SB. But it hurts to lose when it appeared we had the game won. It's a gut punch. And I'm still in a fog.

Sometimes I think sports fans take things to the next level. Like your team determines the quality of life you live. I love football but there's a ton more important stuff going on fellas.

I agree. The loss stings. We had it and let it get away. We can argue til we drop on what the reason was but end of the day this team was a pure joy to watch all year long.
It sucks to come so close and lose a game we really should win but it doesn't wipe away everything else this team did. Just hurts that 10 years from now this group wont' be recognized for what they were able to do.
Hard to say if we'll be back given the possible changes on the roster coming but I still trust our coaches and I think we have enough key pieces to keep us in the hunt.

I know. I love these stupid threads that you can't criticize your team or you're a "bandwagon" fan. LOL!!
Not to f-----g mention they blew a 10 point lead with 7 minutes left.
In reality is, if you're not mad that we lost, YOU'RE most like the bandwagon fans. Real fans care. Bye bye.

OP I bet before the season started on 3 diffrent websites at 1000 each with a 1000 match to win the superbowl for my 49ers everyone said I was crazy and honestly last night was sad man we were destined to win that game but tbh it was kyle trying to avoid jimmy playing free and throwing a pick that cost us the game .....jimmy had a bad game and kittle telling him about missing him didnt help

Example letting the first half expire was mind boggling
