Minnesota Vikings Prediction for This Season

Why No More Love for the 49ers

The preseason is said not to matter, yet pundits are using it as a means to judge San Francisco, noting the ground attack is struggling.  They have also demonstrated an inability to run the ball in those first two games.  The tight ends were missing primary run blocks.

Jimmy Garoppolo was all the rage in the second half of last season.  In Thursday’s preseason loss to Houston, Garoppolo completed 83 percent of his passes.

Here are some top takeaways from that game:
