With their show, they promise to give fans of football and of players' wives and girlfriends (sometimes known as WAGS) a look into what it's like to be part of such an enterprise. From home to away games, Kittle and Juszczyk will showcase everything from traveling and tailgating and give an unfiltered look into their lives with their family and closest friends.
By virtue of a 4-1 overall record and 4-0 mark against NFC teams, the 49ers sit atop the conference for the first time since the 2023 season. That conference mark is a key tiebreaker come January's playoff seeding, after sizing up head-to-head battles, divisional games, and common opponents. Other 4-1 NFC teams are the 49ers' hosts this Sunday, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-1 NFC), as well as the Philadelphia Eagles (3-0) and the Detroit Lions (2-1).
The script is familiar. Fourth quarter or overtime. Rams trail or are tied. On comes Matthew Stafford. The veteran quarterback is the master of comebacks. And he appeared to be on the verge of doing it again on Thursday night against the rival San Francisco 49ers. But the 49ers stopped running back Kyren Williams on a fourth-and-one play at the 49ers' 11-yard line,
Brock Purdy and his troublesome toe are returning to the 49ers' bench. Mac Jones will start at quarterback as Purdy is sidelined for the third time in four games Thursday night when the 49ers (3-1) visit the Los Angeles Rams (3-1). Purdy will have company on the SoFi Stadium sideline: wide receivers Ricky Pearsall (knee), Jauan Jennings (ribs, ankle) and Jordan Watkins (calf) also got ruled out Wednesday.
There's simply not enough luck in the football world to overcome the kind of slop the Niners put on the field Sunday against the Jaguars. Four turnovers, a punt return allowed for a touchdown, and an offense that couldn't move the ball on the ground all combined into a 26-21 Jacksonville win at Levi's Stadium. The only good news for the 49ers? They won't have time to dwell on all their errors.
Several offensive players missed significant time. The 27-year-old tore his ACL and MCL against the Chiefs in a Week 7 loss. Brandon Aiyuk is on the PUP list to start the 2025 season. General manager John Lynch gave an update on Aiyuk's recovery timeline. While Brandon Aiyuk has not suffered a setback, Lynch said the WR is "not close" to returning from a knee injury.
The San Francisco 49ers moved to 2-0 after defeating the New Orleans Saints 26-21 on the road. New Orleans had a chance at taking the lead late, regaining possession with 2:40 left in the fourth quarter. However, while facing a fourth-and-1 on their own 42-yard-line, Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler was sacked, clinching the 49ers victory. Starting in place of Brock Purdy, San Francisco quarterback Mac Jones had 279 passing yards with three touchdowns.
After the team plummeted to last place in the NFC West last season amid injuries, tragedy and distractions, coach Kyle Shanahan and general manager John Lynch have put Humpty Dumpty back together again to the point where sports books have actually made the 49ers division favorites. That makes the 49ers at least a possibility to be at home on Feb. 8, when Levi's Stadium plays host to Super Bowl LX.
