Deebo Samuel had seven catches for 149 yards and a score, also finding the end zone on a 1-yard rush while Brandon Aiyuk had 126 yards on six receptions.Christian McCaffrey ran 16 times for 145 yards, including a 72-yarder on the first snap of the game, but finished without a touchdown for just the second time since joining the 49ers last October.Here’s what the Niners had to say after the win:San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyl...Our Bombshell on India’s Assassination Program — and the Story Behind the Green New Deal
