So could Pepper’s incident actually help spark a working 49ers team?

San Francisco entered the season with clear Super Bowl dreams. After all, the Niners suffered a heartbreaking defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs in the Super Bowl last February.

Many thought the 49ers had the most talented roster in the NFL heading into 2024, and it was hard to argue that sentiment.

But things definitely didn’t go as planned in the Bay Area.

San Francisco is just 5-4 so far this season and sits a half-game behind the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC West.

Falling short of a Cardinals team that won just four games a year ago wasn’t the most expected for a Niners team that had won two consecutive division titles.

To be fair, the 49ers have been devastated by injuries, but no one will feel sorry for them.

Anyway, maybe Pepper’s little feud with Samuel was just what San Francisco needed. Maybe it took a little kick in the backside for the Niners to get going.

This was definitely an emotional win for the 49ers, and one they desperately needed, especially with some tough games on the horizon.

Pepper won’t throw any interceptions or score any touchdowns the rest of the way, but the competitive fire he displayed on San Francisco’s sideline in Week 10 might be just what the doctor ordered for the Niners heading into the second half. of the year.
