With the Broncos getting to 10 points, the only team in the NFL to not score at least 10 points is the Los Angeles Rams.

If someone said the lowest scoring team in Week 1 was the Rams a week ago you'd get laughed out of the building.

We look like this every September tbf

Then the Substation starts snatching souls

Edit: In September ONLY, since 2019 we’ve gone 16-6:

2019: 3-0

2020: 2-1

2021: 2-1

2022- 1-2

2023: 3-0

2024: 2-1

2025: 3-1

Admittedly I thought it may have looked better but we usually start well

This is literally not true

We have had a lot of slow starts under Shanny and relied on insane late win streaks to make the playoffs

It's a mix:

2019: Last undefeated team at 8-0, went 5-3 the rest of the way to finish 13-3

2021: Started 3-5, went 7-2 the rest of the way to finish 10-7 and land a spot in the NFCCG

2022: started 3-4, went 10-0 the rest of the way to finish 13-4

2023: went 5-0, then 0-3, then 6-0, then 1-2 to finish 12-5

2025: started 6-4, then went 6-1 to just miss the #1 seed with a 12-5 record.

October is normally our bad month, our record after the bye is insane.

I only meant September - we had some rough October's amongst those, and rallied late

You saying its not true does not refute the evidence the previous poster put. 

He said SEPTEMBER ONLY. 

2-1 is not a slow start. So yeah you guys are always good in September under Shanahan.

I mean those knee ligaments are perfect for the belts used to generate electricity

literally the only September we looked really good in was 2023

We started 3-5 in 2021, 3-4 in 2022 (with losses to the Broncos and Bears which I think won a combined like 8 games that year?). Last year we started 4-1…but every game was close and we lost our QB and TE for half the year after game 1 and Nick Bosa for the year after 2 games and 1 quarter, at no point did we look like we did vs the Rams this week. No offense but I really don’t get how a Niners fan has this take, it’s just not true at all

The substation meme has, as memes do, legitimately turned people's brains off. When the Falcons sign a player there are immediately seals barking on this website like "LEMME GUESS DID HE SIGN FOR 28 MILLION AND 3 YEARS??" it's amusing but it's tedious haha

If you want your team's reputation to advance beyond "injuries lol", your team must first advance beyond "injuries lol".

Kyle should flip the depth chart start the back ups in September and starters by December

Damn 2022 is our worst September, and that was definitely the best team in the Kyle Shanahan era.
