    Kansas City Chiefs vs. San Francisco 49ers Saturday, August 24, 2019 Preseason Game 3 49ers Head Coach Kyle Shanahan SHANAHAN: “Kyle Juszczyk had a hand contusion. X-rays looked okay. They just told me they got it. Raheem Mostert had a thigh contusion on the last day of practice. That is why he did not dress today.” Q: Did you feel good about the first team offense? SHANAHAN: “It was definitely better than the week before and that would have been hard not to do, but it was cool that they got to stay out there longer to get in a little bit of a rhythm. We started off a little rough, but completed a good third down which allowed us to stay on the field some. I thought they had a good first half.” Q: Did you think Jimmy Garoppolo looked more comfortable? SHANAHAN: “Yeah, it is not a big surprise when a guy is out for a long time, especially coming off of an ACL. That is just how football goes sometimes, especially in the preseason. Last week was not nearly as bad as it looked, but it definitely did look that bad live and today everyone was on the same page a little bit better. We moved the chains a couple of times and you just get into a rhythm and you start forgetting about things and playing football.” Q: Do you think Jimmy settled down? SHANAHAN: “I thought so. It looked like it. He definitely missed a couple early, which guys do. That is not always coming off of an injury.

  • Are You Ready for Some Super-Senior Football?

    Are You Ready for Some Super-Senior Football?

    Oldest living players Are you ready for some super-senior football? Starting East team quarterback Ace Parker (Information was current as of May 2013 when article appeared in Sports Collectors Digest magazine) By George Vrechek Can you imagine a tackle football game featuring the oldest living NFL players with some of the guys in their 90s? Well to tell the truth, I can’t really imagine it either. However that doesn’t stop me from fantasizing about the possibility of a super-senior all-star game featuring players who appeared on football cards. After SCD featured my articles earlier this year about the (remote) possibility of a game involving the oldest living baseball players, you knew it wouldn’t be long before you read about the possibility of a super-senior football game. Old-timers have been coming back to baseball parks for years to make cameo appearances. Walter Johnson pitched against Babe Ruth long after both had retired. My earlier articles proposed the possibility of getting the oldest baseball players (ranging in age from 88 to 101) back for one more game. While not very likely, it is at least conceivable. Getting the oldest old-timers back for a game of tackle football, on the other hand, isn’t very likely. We can probably think about a touch game, but the players would properly insist that touch is not the same game. If the game were played as touch football, the plethora of linemen would have to entertain one another, while the players in the skill positions got to run around and get all the attention, sort of like it is now in the NFL, except the linemen are knocking themselves silly.
