Any discussion of the 49ers offense usually revolves around the skill position players. That’s understandable when you consider the franchise’s glory days featured back-to-back Hall of Fame quarterbacks in Joe Montana and Steve Young. Wide receivers such as Dwight Clark, Freddy Solomon, Jerry Rice, John Taylor, and Terrell Owens were on the outside. In the backfield were explosive running backs like Roger Craig and Ricky Watters.
The current team’s discussion is about how the 49ers offense will be unstoppable with weapons like Deebo Samuel, Brandon Aiyuk, George Kittle, and Trey Lance delivering the ball. Throw in Kyle Shanahan calling the plays, and it is not fair for the rest of the league.
