The Seahawks could clinch a playoff berth this week if they beat the San Francisco 49ers, and the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington both lose. Carolina is also two games back, but Seattle holds the head-to-head tiebreaker on them.We’ll have plenty to discuss about the Seahawks this week, but for this evening, Kirk Cousins is the story of the day. He threw for 208 yards and a touchdown, but most of that came in the fourth quarter as the Vikings struggled to do much of anything all evening long. Cousins looked shook in the pocket, even when pressure was not right in his face. The play-calling was shaky at times and the Seahawks got some quality pressure, but even beyond that
https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Mike-Mcglinchey-Jersey , it was a bad night for Cousins.Two weeks ago, Nick Mullens threw for 414 yards against this same Seahawks defense. Of course, 300 of those yards came in the second half when the 49ers were trailing by three scores. It is still impressive to put up that kind of yardage total, but context is important.All that being said, Kirk Cousins has struggled against quality opposition, and the 49ers might have dodged a bullet when it comes to Kyle Shanahan’s infatuation with Cousins. I feel like Shanahan could have done some big things with Cousins, but I’ll take Jimmy Garoppolo and whatever 2019 might have in store! And I’ll leave you with this tweet from our friends at Hogs Haven. TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — The San Francisco 49ers remained supportive of Reuben Foster until the linebacker gave the team no choice but to sever ties with him.That was the prevailing sentiment in the locker room after Sunday's 27-9 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers."It's what they had to do. I think the organization has handled the situation as best they could
Jimmie Ward Jersey ," cornerback Richard Sherman said of the swift decision to release Foster following his arrest on a domestic violence charge hours before the game. "They've been patient and understanding of the type of person Reuben is and what kind of heart he has," Sherman added. "But you understand the decision the organization has to make after repeated offenses."Foster was arrested at the team hotel in Tampa and jailed overnight following an incident involving the second-year linebacker and a companion police identified as the same woman who accused Foster of hitting her in February, but later recanted the allegations.General manager John Lynch and coach Kyle Shanahan said in April after charges from the earlier case were eventually dropped that the team had a zero-tolerance policy."I care about Reuben, but nobody is bigger than the team," Shanahan said, adding Foster had broken trust."Our No. 1 rule is you got to protect the team, and he has put us in a bad light too much," the coach added. "Hopefully this will fix him and he can be successful somewhere else."Sherman said players attended team meetings Saturday night and went to bed not knowing anything had happened."A lot of people woke up to the news. It's just sad. You hate to see it. He worked hard and he's grown as a guy
Dwight Clark Color Rush Jersey ," Sherman said, reiterating he felt Foster had shown signs of making progress in the right direction before Saturday."When you grow up under the circumstances that he grew up … you don't have parents and you move home to home … you just make the best of what you got, and that's what he tried to do," Sherman said."He got himself to Alabama, got himself to the NFL. It's tough to develop the skills that you need to kind of make your way in the world, and he was trying," Sherman added. "He was working hard. He knew his deficiencies and knew what he had to do. It's just unfortunate this situation keeps coming up"Quarterback Nick Mullens said once the news began to spread, the 49ers took precautions to not let Foster's situation become a distraction against the Bucs."I don't think it was
