Congrats @nfl. How many more players have to get hurt on ARTIFICIAL TURF??! You care more about soccer players than us. You plan to remove all artificial turf for the World Cup coming up. So clearly it’s feasible. I’m sick of this..Do better!

There was a play last night where Amon-Ra St. Brown was wide open for a touchdown. I talked about: 🔹why he was so wide open 🔹why Jared Goff didn't throw him the ball 🔹what Matthew Stafford once did with a very similar look (in the playoffs) (to win the game)

Trey Lance w/ a brutal turn down here. It's open twice. Then, we skymail the checkdown. This has gotta make Shanny punch himself in the face. #FTTB Full video: youtu.be/zRd5ShRVpzo

Fred Warner is comfortably the best linebacker in the league so this is funny

I am so grateful to @BetterRivals for taking the time to chat with me today! It was great to dive into all the #49ers issues with someone that's not as emotional as I am. Become a patron to see the whole interview! patreon.com/posts/catching-u…

Captivating insight into what Ridley was going through. Football players are humans, not just entertainers. This is a good reminder of that. I'll definitely be rooting for him from afar.

If this is what we can expect from Artificial Intelligence, I welcome our robot overlords with open arms.
Kyle Shanahan regrets letting Jimmy G sign with another team

I've noticed on twitter that people love to show the top-flight, best of the best clips for a prospect they like but rarely show areas of concern. The highlight reel cutups get people so hyped they don't get a good sense of balance for the prospect. Group-think then takes off.

lmao: Dak Prescott and the #DallasCowboys last play. After a timeout for some reason made it funnier. Like the joke marinated longer than it should have then hit even harder. I can still giggle about it. 📽️youtu.be/YkBK0Y01hS4

While this fantastic breakdown is focused on Dak’s decision making, the 49ers tendency-breaking wrinkles are just as important. DeMeco Ryans also got Aaron Rodgers with a couple well-timed sim pressures in last year’s Divisional. Great time to break tendencies!
Sorry, audio messed up on last attempt, here is video on discussion w/ @danorlovsky7 about @cowboys 3-5 play yesterday! #StudyBall @qbconfidential
