I believe the he 49ers regained the lead three or four times between the end of the fourth quarter and OT and still lost. I've never seen that before in a playoff game that I can recall and yet we still lost. I would hardly call that choking. Pat Mahomes just did his thang right at the end

Well . . . one person did "choke" for sure. Not for the first time.
Giving the opposition an extra down to get it done. Which they did end up needing.
Otherwise, it would probably have ended up Purdy doing his "thang".
And the defense did not step up. (But why put them in the position of having to in the first place)

I haven't seen a lot of people or posters claim this but I'm going to go ahead and say that Deebo isn't going anywhere next year or in the near future. It's been assumed that we can't afford him beyond this year but I'm here to tell you I don't believe that. That's my opinion.

If Deebo has a great year he will be right back here with us next year

Idk if deebo will be gone or not - I love the guy and expect a big year this year from him.

with that said, if we do resign him - is the plan for Ricky Pearsall to be a 3rd string WR as a first round pick?

that'll be interesting to see how it all falls together.

George Kittle needs more involvement. We don't need all these guys. Mahomes or not, KC wins it all with Kelce. I just don't understand why George not used more and he never b***hes. We can do without Deeb and hopefully Pearsall is a stud.

Kittle is involved a LOT! It's just a lot of his use is as a blocker, because A - he's great at it! And B - We can't get a decent RT and they need the help. He doesn't complain because have you seen him play?? Dude LOVES being physical and mixing it up. He's said several times he doesn't care about how many catches he gets.

if any of you were paying attention, Kittle had his 3rd best year last year

And why is that? Because historically he has been used a LOT as a blocker. Nobody ever said he didn't have a good year, and nobody said they were just talking about last year. But ironinc on the "paying attention".

you guys are complaining about usage, well there you have it. his offense production went up lol. that's what i mean by paying attention

With his skill set, he could be hitting 1,000 yards and be among the tops in TE receptions EVERY season. You realize he had 65 catches last season? 65. Travis Kelce had 93! The season before? Kittle had 60. Kelce had 110! Too much comparison to Kelce? Ok - last season Kittle was 10th in Tight End receptions. 10th. Behind such generational talents as Jake Ferguson, Dalton Kincaid, and the one and only Cole Kmet! How hard is any of this to understand, seriously?

And as far as his "production went up" - his yards went up. Catches were down. TD's were down. Targets were down. He did a LOT with the opportunities that he got, but he did have fewer of them.

This is not how this offense is, how is that hard to understand... we don't need to throw to kittle 100 times a season to win lol

Which means...DING DING DING...he is under-used!!!! You know, I'm done. No point wasting my time debating with people that can't put 2 and 2 together.

Or possibly with people who have a different opinion to yours. Cut the snark.

Well the person with the "if any of you were paying attention" started the snark. It's fine, I just added just another poster to my ignore list. I think there are more people ignored now, than not. I miss when the site was actually full of people with good takes. Not just the same repetitive posts or nothing but emojis to up their post count.

Another who can't handle the truth

Kittle is not blocking every time. there are so many plays that kittle is not targeted down field due to other great players on the team getting balls also. It's not under usage, it's called a balanced offense

It's such a weird thing to see people say over and over that we keep kittle in to block a lot. I don't know if it's because they just assume that and don't actually watch the games or they don't want to accept the truth.

He blocks on about 10-15% of pass plays

So he got his $30 million a year. Well Lynch just f*cked this franchise for good. Now every half-decent talented player on the roster is going to pull this s**t, because they know it will work now. Good job, John!! Gonna start calling him John FLINCH. He's probably going back to broadcasting next year, and doesn't care about the shape he leaves the team in.

.

He signed the deal that they offered on August 10th. "Pulling this s**t" didn't get him anything.

Got him 3 weeks off.

Nobody ever said it was only because he is kept in to block. If he blocks on 15% of pass plays (no idea where that stat comes from, since nobody has backed it up), and we run 50% of the time - that means he is used as a receiver 35% of the offensive plays. And yes, watch the games. In some (not all) he is practically invisible as a receiver because he HAS to help our weak RT's. He is targeted much less than other top (even mid) TE's - those numbers don't lie.

The ironic part of this is, this discussion all started about his lack of involvement. When I point out how heavily he is involved in the offense, in different ways - somebody only reads part of the statement and completely misses the point.

After reading the breakdown on Aiyuk's deal it looks very team friendly. Cap hit for 2024 was reduced to $5.7 million. 2025 it's $11.1 million. 2026 it's $16.2 million. In 2027 it jumps to $42.3 million but that is sure to be reworked . Either that or he gets traded or released since none of the $27 million in base salary is guaranteed.

3 years from now he will be 28-29, so I'm sure he will want another big deal before he hits his 30s. That's my guess

Finally!! 🚨 🚨 🚨

The #49ers are not trading star WR Brandon Aiyuk — he's staying in SF with a massive extension, per me and @MikeGarafolo.

Aiyuk is getting a front-loaded 4-year deal worth $120M — done by @RyanWilliamsA1 of @AthletesFirst. And yes, Aiyuk will now practice. pic.twitter.com/2LreDyUDoH

Great 49ers gift ideas ⇨

Finally drama queen

No drama...just money.

Impatient fans that can't handle negotiations are the drama queens.

It's once again an offensive league. Everyone trying to be us all of a sudden. Didn't you see the last draft? Had a run on offensive players and great defensive talents were to be found later on. Everyone now trying to stockpile weapons offensively

We had the leagues best DL a few years now but we get to the bowl and they just get held and tackled from behind on third down so now teams are tooling up offensively trying to beat KC and us

A bunch of chokers?

🤣 such a petulant child

Sorry to hurt your feelings, son.

It's team friendly as long as he don't pull the same s**t as Silverback.

He blocks 10-15% of pass plays, not total.

Also show me a game where he was kept in to block "to help our RT" a bunch. I'll save you the time: that game doesn't exist.

Now, lack of targets is something completely different but presenting he has a lack of targets because he's kept in to block so much is literally a lie

Ah yes, I forgot about out amazing history of RT'S that are world beaters in every way! "Literally a lie" - wow. You are literally f**king stupid. Please get off the bandwagon and go back to watching your Seahawks, k?
