Vanquished Panthers linebacker says 49ers are ‘O.K., not world-beaters’ after 51-13 pantsing

Finally, a football player/coach/owner/fan club president who doesn’t need to see the film.

Carolina Panther defensive Bruce Irvin hadn’t even finished tending to his first-degree burns Sunday afternoon when he gave this unvarnished scouting report on the 7-0 49ers.

I asked Panthers end Bruce Irvin just how good this 49ers team is. “They’re OK. They’re OK. They’re not world-beaters,” he said. My guess is SF will use this as another log on the motivational fire.

If not world-beaters, how about Panther-spankers?
