9ers appear to be in injury hell right now. I would say with AZ playing better they had better bring their A game, but after this Mondays game, I don't think they have that fortitude this year to overcome the player loss and that game loss.
KS let it slip to Cardinals media that Staley was out. He tried to walk it back but I'd be surprised if he plays.
That said, their injuries are mostly on offense as seen here:
https://www.ninersnation.com/2019/11/13 ... -two-weeks. But as we saw, the D had its biggest struggles (before us) with them. It could come down to whether Sanders can go. While Samuels is coachable, that's not gonna happen in a week. Bourne/Pettis/esp Goodwin I think have hit their ceilings, and they're fairly low.
?
I think yer a bit off on that one.
He let it slip that KITTLE wouldn't play and then walked it back. We already know that Staley is out because he had surgery on his finger.
As for the WRs....I'd say your assessment isn't far off.
Samuel has a future...but he plays like a rookie.
Bourne.....ugg.
Pettis.....MAD potential, just isn't living up to it. Shanahan loves the kid, but he just isn't taking the strides he needs to. Pretty regularly isn't where he's supposed to be and doesn't fight back to the ball.
Goodwin.....love the guy personally, but he'll always be a track star playing WR.
The guy I'm really hoping to see here soon is Jalen Hurd. Hoping he might be able to come off IR. He's a rookie too so not someone I would depend on, but he's something they simply don't have right now....6'4" 230-240 and great after the catch.
