That 20-7 score of the San Francisco 49ers win over the Los Angeles Rams is not very indicative of just how bad that was for the Rams. The 49ers manhandled them in what was awesome for Niner fans and devastating for Rams fans. In the first few minutes Jerick McKinnon Jersey , though, there was a bit of a scare. The Rams didn’t bother passing and went straight to running. And it worked. When you look at how efficiently they ran it on that one series (you know, the only one they scored on all game), it would be fair to think this was going to be ugly and that Robert Saleh needed to think of something quick. Hey, Kyle Shanahan had to be breathing down his neck, right?Not exactly. Saleh came out for the postgame and was asked about the run and described what Shanahan said after the Rams effortlessly punched it in (without Todd Gurley’s help):Translation: “He stayed the hell out of our way.”Shanahan runs the offensive side of the ball, but he’s also the head coach. I wouldn’t be surprised if he knows a lot more defensive scheming than he lets on, but the fact he steps back and lets Saleh do his thing says a lot. After all Womens Laken Tomlinson Jersey , the whole reason I brought this up was because Shanahan was the victim of a coach stepping on his toes once. You’d have to think that played into the way he coaches now. The below tweet was from when he was offensive coordinator for the Cleveland Browns under Mike Pettine.Ok, I really just wanted an excuse to show that priceless look Shanahan has after Pettine tells him, “I say we run it.” Having known a thing or two about people pulling rank and/or throwing their weight around when they should stay in their lane probably explains why Shanahan let Saleh do his thing. That look, man. The San Francisco 49ers PR department released their unofficial Week 8 depth chart on Tuesday afternoon. A Tuesday release meant Adrian Colbert to IR and the signing of Tom Savage are reflected in the depth chart.This is entirely unofficial, but it does give us one notable talking point. D.J. Reed is now listed as the starting free safety, as one would expect with Colbert’s injury. What I found interesting was the decision to move him from No. 1 kick returner to No. 2 kick returner. Rookie Richie James has replaced him in the No. 1 spot.Such a change on an unofficial depth chart could mean nothing, but given that Reed is getting first crack at the starting free safety job, it would make sense that the coaching staff would prefer to keep him out of a high impact special teams position like kick returner.Injuries can happen in a variety of ways Earl Mitchell Jersey White , but with James active fairly regularly now and Reed potentially moving into the starting lineup, it would not surprise me to see James returning kicks this Sunday against the Cardinals.One transaction of note that does not appear on the depth chart. The 49ers signed wide receiver Aaron Burbridge to their practice squad on Tuesday. The team placed him on injured reserve at the end of training camp this year, and then waived him with an injury settlement.His return could mean a couple things. The first is the banged-up wide receiver corps. The 49ers are dealing with a host of injuries there and could use bodies. The second, and more likely reason, is Tarvarius Moore potentially getting more cornerback snaps. As Matt Barrows noted, Moore is one of their gunners on special teams, and Burbridge has significant experience in that role. If Moore plays more cornerback in the coming weeks, the team might use him less on special teams. If that’s the case Womens Jaquiski Tartt Jersey , Burbridge can slot right into the role.49ers offensive depth chart vs. Cardinals, Week 8PositionFirstSecondThirdPositionFirstSecondThird49ers defensive depth chart vs. Cardinals, Week 8PositionFirstSecondThirdPositionFirstSecondThird49ers special teams depth chart vs. Cardinals, Week 8PositionFirstSecondThirdPositionFirstSecondThird
