Normal supervisor John Lynch made a plea Friday to the fan base.
Don’t quit on us; make some noise Sunday night time when the Dallas Cowboys come to city.
“I know our fans are frustrated this year,” Lynch stated on his weekly look on the 49ers’ flagship station KNBR-680. “I simply say grasp with us and assist this be the house discipline benefit that it may be. I’ve acquired a ton of perception that we’re going to seek out our means in a great way right here quickly, however it’s acquired to start out this week.
“This is really a critical game for us as a team.”
The 49ers are coming off a 28-18 loss to the defending Tremendous Bowl champion Kansas Metropolis Chiefs. They’re 3-4 with a bye to come back after dealing with Dallas on Sunday night time. The followers aren’t the one ones who’re stressed, judging from the observations of some former 49ers this week on the radio.
A sampling:
Corridor of Fame receiver Jerry Rice on 95.7 The Sport: “Back in the day, I’m gonna be honest with you, if we played like the way we played (against Kansas City), we would have probably been swinging on each other on the sidelines. We would have been fighting each other. That was not the Forty-Niner standard right there.”
Former tight finish Brent Jones on KNBR-680: We’ve acquired to have buy-in throughout the board. No one’s afraid of us anymore. Everyone was at all times afraid of us the final couple of years. We’re enjoying like knuckleheads.”
Corridor of Fame quarterback Steve Younger on KNBR-680: “We’re about the Super Bowl. It felt further away today.”
Corridor of Fame defensive ack Ronnie Lott on KNBR-680: “Watching that game, to me, it as more about beating yourself. Protecting the ball, doing all the things you’ve got to do. Being smart with the football. Understanding situations. All of these guys have shown they can do it. They’ve played under pressure. To me, it’s simple, protect the ball, go out and get the ball.”
Younger: “(Brock Purdy) needs to grow into that place where, ‘What is too much? What can’t I do?’ I think last year, he left the year thinking, `There’s nothing I can’t do. We just dominate.’ This is harder and there’s growth out of this. The problem is people have created that type of doubt and anxiety and now you’ve got to drag yourself out of it.”
Jones: “We need to figure out how to pick up the blitz or we’re going to get Brock Purdy killed.”
Former security and present NBC Sports activities Bay Space analyst Donte Whitner: “I think (Brock) was pressing. He was trying to do too much. He has a lot of injuries around him and he’s the only guy that can make this offense go. On the first interception, he definitely predetermined that throw and I think Kyle Shanahan can do a better job of giving him better options on that play so he doesn’t have to predetermine it.”
Jones: “Throwing deep exterior, you’ve acquired to have a very robust arm. Brock’s acquired an excellent arm, however it’s not an Elway-esque arm so that you don’t depend on these throws on your bread and butter.
Rice: “(The 49ers) need to simplify everything where Brock Purdy is more comfortable, he can see the lanes and stuff like that. I think that’s going to equate to winning football games. And also, our defense fought hard. But eventually, they’re going to get tired.”
Whitner: “Getting Christian McCaffery back will be almost like the day they traded for Christian McCaffery.”
Younger: “We’ve acquired to get extra dynamic. Now we have struggled within the crimson zone. It could possibly’t be one individual. There’s no means you lead the league in crimson zone it’s one man. We’re going to have provide you with crazier stuff to get in there.
Jones: “If Kyle’s got to cut a couple of players, special teams players, then do it. Throw down the gauntlet. Let people know this is not a country club. We’ve got to beat the Cowboys and get to the bye.”

Rice: “I’m still going to stay positive. They’ve got to somehow turn it back around, get a win against those Cowboys, which I hate those Cowboys. They’re coming to town, but we’ve got to get it.”
Lott: “They’ve all played in prime time games. They’ve all been Denzel Washington. They will show up, they will play, they will make the plays they need to make and hopefully they’ll do what they’re capable of doing.”
Whitner: “After the first eight games of the season they normally don’t do well. It’s almost like they’re collecting data. I know this year is an anomaly because they’ve had so many injuries. I just know this is a must win this week.”
