Coach Talk

Str8CashHomey
We can't overstate just how important tight victories like this are for team chemistry. Persevering in the face of adversity and triumphing as a tight-knit unit... we expect the Str8CashHomey locker room to really gel entering Week 17.
Mario's Team
Our starting QB tossed an interception and literally zero touchdowns? Maybe we need to go back and review the game tape: Was Kyler Murray really that out-of-tune with his receiving crew, or were the 49ers just that stout against the pass?
