The 49ers mortgaged the future to acquire a quarterback to replace Jimmy Garoppolo, who just dramatically beat a QB for whom the Rams mortgaged the future to acquire.

Game News


Deebo Samuel has 8 rushing touchdowns this season, the most by any wide receiver in a single season in NFL history. pic.twitter.com/fmR86iuZOa

Ambry Thomas just sent the 49ers to the playoffs

Trey Lance is warming up on the sideline with his helmet on, for what it's worth

Jauan Jennings: "I shed a few tears, man, just thinking about how far we came."

George Kittle estimated that 60 percent of the crowd was 49ers fans. (I think George is low. Seemed like 80 percent at least).

"You're in the field of play, baby. Get ready for it" 🤣 Kittle responded to Kyle Shanahan jokingly saying he avoids the tight end's energetic sideline celebrations Full 49ers Talk featuring @gkittle46: bit.ly/3dreggM pic.twitter.com/oSZMdgcv3N

That'll work for Robbie Gould, who gets off a 47-yard punt with no return.

Still not sighting of Trent Williams on the field here at SoFi. Inactive list comes out in 20 minutes so we'll know the final verdict then

Looks like Dre Greenlaw will be active for the 49ers. He has his uniform footwear on pic.twitter.com/OdX6dgnnmz

"It was an instant classic, for sure" -- #49ers DT Arik Armstead.

#49ers Injury Update P Mitch Wishnowsky (head injury) is questionable to return.

Arden Key and Fred Warner split that sack. That's Warner's first of the season.

Emmanuel Moseley took that ball away from ... Jaquiski Tartt. Great defense on a deep ball, which is something we haven't written a lot this season.

D.J. Jones sacks Stafford and SoFi erupts. It's a 49ers home game for sure now

Big pre-game news: Trent Williams and K'Waun Williams are OUT for today's game against the Rams. Rookie Jaylon Moore will start at LT.

Jimmy G up. Trent Williams is out. … and as an aside, Alex Mack is set to play his 201st(!) game, which is amazing. twitter.com/49ers/status/1…

Trent Williams and K'Waun Williams are OUT for #SFvsLAR. Full @DignityHealth inactives 👇

Mitch Wishnowsky is injured and in the tent, and Kyle Juszczyk begins taking snaps to prepare to hold on PATs and extra points.

Von Miller beats Colton McKivitz for the sack. McKivitz is playing because Trent Williams is inactive with an elbow injury.

Even before Stafford hits Kupp for 5th time for 84 yards, Aikman circled that part of 49ers defense near Dontae Johnson and zone, and said "This is too easy down here" Ez does it

Arden Key walking the length of the 49ers' bench firing his teammates up. What a story his rise has been — now a defensive leader


#49ers RB Elijah Mitchell finished the regular season with 963 rushing yards, most by a rookie in franchise history, and most by any Niner since Carlos Hyde had 988 in 2016.

The Rams were 8-of-11 on third and fourth downs in the first half. The 49ers win Round 1 of the second half. DeMeco Ryans used a blitz bullet — Greenlaw — and Stafford couldn't handle it

Pregame work for Tom Compton, who essentially took over RT for the injured Mike McGlinchey around the time of the 49ers' Week 10 win over the Rams. He's performed very well for them since, especially in the run game. One of the many key players today pic.twitter.com/visBjbJJs2

Deommodore Lenoir is the only #49ers player who did not clear COVID protocols and is not available to play today.

Jaquiski Tartt is not in the game, so the 49ers are just trying to piece this thing together in their defensive backfield

Sean McVay was 45-0 as Rams coach when leading at halftime entering today. He is now 45-1

After tearing his Achilles in July, Rams' RB Cam Akers is expected to make his season debut today vs. the 49ers, per sources. Akers is expected to have a limited role today, but an increased role during the postseason. "He looks fantastic," one Rams' official said this weekend.

This team showed a lot of fight and making the playoffs would have been extremely validating, though it would have been hard with Taysom Hill hurt. Being a Matthew Stafford interception away from the playoffs should provide the same validation, and the draft spot is better.

Carolina's is expected to target former NFL head coaches Jay Gruden and Bill O'Brien in its search for a new offensive coordinator, per league sources. Carolina also expected to be interested in talking with Rams' OC Kevin O'Connell.

No Jimmy Garoppolo under center for New England, but in a year of gutsy projections, Mike Reiss' crystal ball did nail the Sony Michel trade.

Taylor Rapp with the interception. First to get to him to go celebrate with him: Jalen Ramsey.

If you predicted a two-TD game for Jennings and Tyler Higbee, go get lottery tickets NOW.

Today is Jaylon Moore's 24th birthday. His gift? Von Miller.

Matthew Stafford didn’t have his best performance on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. He threw a touchdown pass to Cooper Kupp that appeared to be the game-winner at the end of the fourth quarter, but the 49ers stormed back and forced overtime with a game-tying touchdown in the final seconds.
In overtime, Stafford made one of his biggest mistakes of the game. On first-and-10 from the Rams’ 38-yard line with two minutes left, Stafford chucked it deep down the right sideline for Odell Beckham Jr.
It looked like Beckham beat Ambry Thomas, but Stafford underthrew his receiver badly and Thomas picked it off

Van Jefferson, on third and 10. Clutch catch. Stafford great ball with pressure bearing folding in on him.

That was Taylor Rapp's fourth interception of the season, FWIW, extending what was already a career-high. twitter.com/JourdanRodrigu…

Matt Gay's 43-yard FG is good. Rams convert 3/12, 3/9, 3/1 but Stafford sacked on 3/6. Up 3-0 after a 13-play, 62-yard drive that took almost nine minutes off the clock.

Jordan Fuller is down on the field, trainers attending.

Third and goal. Terrell Burgess makes the big stop there to force Kittle outside and out of bounds.

Rams OLB Leonard Floyd getting a pregame workout in down on the field after popping up on the injury report late Friday (ankle). Looks like he's moving pretty good. Inactives out in 20.
