San Francisco 49ers
www.mercurynews.comKurtenbach: The 49ers carry a huge advantage into the 2025 offseason
While the rest of the league's non-playoff teams are firing coaches and general managers left and right, the program, as it were, is still in good standing in Santa Clara.
As the 49ers cleaned out their lockers... it was impossible not to be struck by how the team's leaders and others purported themselves. No finger-pointing unless it was to one's chest.
Just reflection, fair accountability, and a universal belief that this hot mess of a season... will prove valuable in 2025.
The Niners took their months-long humbling with a smile and a thank you. That's how a pro does it.
