I watched the highlights this morning. It was definitely the Raiders most compelling preseason game. Why in the hell were your starters out there?
They weren't out for long. I am not sure why Shanahan wanted to play the third preseason game. Most teams have the starters play a bit in the second game. Anyways, Shanahan is going to do what Shanahan is going to do. The 49ers have so many injuries right now. I am expecting a rough start to the season. They might have to win some ugly ones. Fortunately their are some gimmies in the first 5 weeks for 49ers.

There were a couple of injuries yesterday, but I'm not sure if those were relevant players. Other than Kelce and Mahomes, I can't think of an offensive group that has less reason to suit up for the last preseason game.

Floyd and Gross-Matos both hurt their knees. Not good. That’s the 49ers second and maybe third best DEs. Hopefully not serious. They can overcome one of them being out but not both.

Was the starting O-line playing? If so, it's not encouraging that Purdy was getting sacked by our bench players. Although, in fairness, our backup D-Line played better than the starters had played.

2/5. Williams is holding out. Banks is banged up (not serious). Feliciano is out until around week 8.
That’s being said Puni has been great this preseason so he is playing at a starter level at RG.
Not having Williams and Banks is pretty huge.
