""I don't really pay attention too much to it," Jones said, laughing. "Kyle came up to me and he was pissed about it. He's like, 'Dude, I can't believe they moved us to underdogs again,' or like more [of underdogs] or whatever. And I'm like, 'I don't know what that means really, [but] like, yeah, let's go kill them.' He was pissed about it. I was like, 'Yeah, I'm pissed, too.'""
""The Niners entered the game as 8.5-point underdogs, according to ESPN BET, and Thursday night's win was their first outright victory with odds that big since a 2011 win against the Philadelphia Eagles, when they were 9.5-point underdogs. It was also the largest upset of the 2025 season so far, surpassing the Cleveland Browns' win against the Green Bay Packers in Week 3 when the Packers were favored by 7.5 points.""
Kyle Shanahan told backup quarterback Mac Jones that the injury-depleted San Francisco 49ers were listed as 8.5-point underdogs before the game. Jones said he does not follow social media or oddsmaking and responded to Shanahan's remark with motivation. Jones delivered one of his best career performances and led the short-handed Niners to a 26-23 victory over the Los Angeles Rams. The win was the Niners' first outright victory with such large odds since a 2011 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles. The victory stood as the largest upset of the 2025 season, surpassing a Week 3 result.
