Jimmy Garoppolo is on track to participate in organized team activities in June Ahkello Witherspoon Color Rush Jersey , 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said.The 49ers will ease him back into action, likely holding him out of 11-on-11 participation until training camp.“[We will] probably make a smart decision to go seven-on-seven, so we wouldn’t have to worry about it,” Shanahan said, via Chris Biderman of the . “I don’t have an exact timeline https://www.49ersfanshop.com/C.-J.-Beathard-Jersey , but that’s how I feel.”Garoppolo tore his left anterior cruciate ligament during a Sept. 23 game against the Chiefs. Although Shanahan isn’t allowed to talk to Garoppolo about football, he has observed the quarterback working to get back.“We don’t talk about football, but I see him out my <!-- Invalid office shortcode URL --> window every day,” Shanahan said. “He does drops every day. He’s been doing a good job, but everyone says they’re ahead of schedule. He is. I mean Matt Breida Jersey , he’s been healing great, and he hasn’t had knee trouble before.” It’s fair to say that while the 49ers have a long road to go in getting respect from the NFL, their defense has been the darlings of the league. It’s second in points against,second in yards against, first in passing yards defended and...ugh Trent Taylor Color Rush Jersey , I’m not going to bother listing all the highlights. That defensive line in particular is on pace to be something historic in a year once everyone gels (and the front office re-signs the free agents). Well, everyone would say this but the folks at EA Sports who are behind thebeloved Madden video games. Madden currently has the 49ers defense with an 81 grade if you are starting a franchise. The number wouldn’t be so bad if there wasn’t much in front of them, but Linus Jorgensen (give him a follow), friend of the site, was able to get me a list of teams https://www.49ersfanshop.com/Adrian-Colbert-Jersey , that either have the same or better defensive rating: New England Patriots 88Chicago Bears 85New York Jets 83Detroit Lions 83Carolina Panthers 83Los Angeles Rams 83Baltimore Ravens 83New Orleans Saints 83Seattle Seahawks 83Minnesota Vikings 83Dallas Cowboys 83Cleveland Browns 83Jacksonville Jaguars 81Pittsburgh Steelers 81Houston Texans 81Tennessee Titans 81Buffalo Bills 81Denver Broncos 81Los Angeles Chargers 81Philadelphia Eagles 81Atlanta Falcons 81This wouldn’t bother me if it wasn’t for the fact the Patriots sit above everyone with that ridiculous 88 grade while everyone else is looking up. To add insult to injury, the Green Bay Packers and Tampa Bay Buccaneers are sitting at 79.Alright, let’s break this down a bit more. That’s overall team defense. Some players? Richard Sherman is the best player with a 93 rating. Deforest Buckner is next with an 87 grade. Dee Ford 84, Kwon Alexander and Fred Warner both finish at 80. Dre Greenlaw is the lowest with a 68 grade. Yeah, something’s either off. Or Dante Pettis Jersey , at the very least, outdated. I think it was the NFL 2K series that allowed mid-season stat adjustments. That was all the way back in the Sega Dreamcast days (God, I’m old). That was innovative then and having a console with internet capabilities was pretty awesome. Common sense was nice too, because later when the 2K series went to the Xbox/PlayStation 2, it was $20 and not shovelware. Imagine that. I think we knew the 49ers would have a good defense. I predicted a top-10 finish back in January. We also know how behind the times Madden is. Knowing that EA Sports hasn’t done a rapid stat adjustment to defensive numbers isn’t too surprising. We’re almost to 2020 and EA Sports still hasn’t found a way to sell a single game engine and then expansion passes to download for $20 every year. They insist we buy a $60 game that is usually broken beyond belief. But it’s Madden and it prides itself on providing the best Jimmy Garoppolo Color Rush Jersey , most accurate football experience.There’s nothing accurate about the 49ers having a defense with the same rating as the Atlanta Falcons.
