SANTA CLARA–This weekend Sunday is the most important of the 49ers season they got against the 1-7 New York Giants. This San Francisco team looks like they’ve been struggling this whole season and they’ve had the loss against the Arizona Cardinals last Sunday 20-10. It really comes down to the fact that they’re not able to put up points the defense can’t get off the field at the moment and they need a win now more than ever because the way things are going this could be an 0-16 team.

Head coach Kyle Shanahan is taking the quarterback situation one game at a time and not rushing back up quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo to get into a game. Everyone is pretty excited to see what a Garoppolo can do for San Francisco under center. Starter CJ Beathard knows the pressure is on coming off that tough loss against Arizona last Sunday he wants to keep his job but he’ll have to lead the 49ers out of the winless desert first.
