Who's returning to the 49ers in 2026? Let's take a look...

It's Super Bowl Sunday. And the 49ers aren't there. How do they get back there next season?

With the hire of Raheem Morris, the 49ers have set up an intriguing NFC West for 2026...

A week into the 49ers offseason, and all's quiet. What should the 49ers be doing, and when might it happen? Let's explore.

It ended badly, but that doesn't mean it didn't have some positives. What comes next for the 49ers?

This team should never be written off, and they proved it, again, against the Philadelphia Eagles.

It's do-or-die in Philadelphia on Sunday, and the 49ers aren't exactly coming in hot. But let's see if there's reasons to be optimistic...

Everything you thought you knew about the 49ers is wrong, and you should've listened to me.

Did you ever think the 49ers would be here? The fact it seemed so unlikely is why it feels so incredibly fantastic. Decisions made months down the line are paying off, and perhaps more importantly, their head coach's main unit is finally carrying its weight. Onwards...

A win is a win, especially late in the year, but there are some worrying signs for the 49ers ahead of three huge games.

If you're a 49ers fan, this week was your last week of rest for a month. Here come four massive games in determining where this team ends up. Breathe deep.

Sunday's results might have been consequential in more ways than one for the 2025 49ers. Let's take a look at how...

Every week feels consequential, and that might be no bad thing for this growing team. After taking down the Panthers, what looms large - and more importantly, are things coming together at just the right time? Let's investigate.

Brock Purdy has returned, and with him, so has optimism for the 2025 49ers season. With narratives slayed, ascending young talent, and a huge opportunity ahead, what happens next is, as always, up to them...

The 49ers lost a major 'hinge point' game on Sunday, and with it might go the optimism for the rest of the season. Let's take an honest look at what's wrong, and what might be next for the team.

Whether with trades, or a potentially season-defining game against the Los Angeles Rams, we'll find a lot out about where the 2025 San Francisco 49ers are going this week.

After Sunday's pathetic display against the Houston Texans, the 49ers have it all to do against the Giants. It's time for them to stand up and decide who they really are.

The 49ers are alive and well, and it's down to a bunch of players you've probably never heard of.

Was Fred Warner's injury the moment the 49ers season actually ended?

Well, that was fun, wasn’t it?

The 49ers-Rams Thursday Night Football game just got more interesting. There's no turning back for the 49ers.

I’ll always try and keep this column a safe space from the shrieking and hysteria. That feels like a particularly difficult job today, after the announcement of Nick Bosa’s torn ACL.

Those of an older vintage than I will remember a famous 80s song called ‘Relax’ by Frankie Goes To Hollywood. While the lyrics would somewhat step on my point, I did think about getting some "JP says Relax" shirts printed on Sunday night, as the San Francisco 49ers once again found a way to win.

Week 1 brought a tough road test against the Seattle Seahawks, and in typical 49ers-Seahawks fashion, the game went down to the wire, was ultimately a slugfest, and was decided by about one or two plays. In the end, the excellent play of Robert Saleh's defense and some tough-as-teak play from quarterback Brock Purdy saw us edge to a 17-13 win, and kill some of the doubts in Ninerland.
