SANTA CLARA, Calif. — The most important run of the night may not have been by Christian McCaffrey. “I’m blocking my man, and next thing I know I hear screaming,” left guard Aaron Banks said from the party in the 49ers locker room at Levi’s Stadium after the game. “I feel like if I would’ve made that block, he probably …

New York Times  

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — On a three-step drop, in about two-and-a-half seconds, the ball was launched. And after Aiyuk scooted the remaining 43 yards for the 76-yard touchdown, and the signature moment of the 49ers’ 27-14 win over the Buccaneers, Purdy let out a yell. “I didn’t know what to do.” In the resounding win over Jacksonville last Sunday, the …

Thompson: With Deebo Samuel back, the 49ers’ offense looks inevitable again

New York Times  

On the 49ers’ first offensive play of the game Sunday in Jacksonville, Deebo Samuel — lined up in the slot on the right — went in motion to set up an end-around to the left side.

New York Times  

Jimmy Garoppolo, lacquered in his trademark professionalism and politeness, fired a shot at his former coach when discussing Trey Lance’s unceremonial dump-off to Dallas. “I’ll just leave it at that.” These are just the latest remarks in a slow leak of Garoppolo’s clear frustrations with 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan. But in the macro, in the grand scheme of the …

Thompson: After Jimmy Garoppolo’s injury, there’s only one way for Kyle Shanahan and the 49ers to respond

New York Times  

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — It was a huge home win for the 49ers. During the second quarter, he found out Jimmy Garoppolo’s broken foot would cost the 49ers their second quarterback of the season. If we know anything about Shanahan, this was a game where he’d run the ball 40 times, limit the turnover risk and control the clock. On …
