tight end George Kittle getting accolades like making Pro Football Focus’ team of the week would get redundant White Richard Sherman Jersey , but it’s the little things to make this season shine dagnabbit! So with that said, he’s back on PFF’s Team of the Week for Week 9. And it’s a good thing. He made it on that stupid catch and run alone. Kittle finished his night with 108 yards on just four receptions and a touchdown. An average of 27 yards per reception. Send it. Here’s what Pro Football Focus had to say about the selection:The 49ers have had some draft picks that may have been head scratchers but Kittle’s pick is absolute genius on the decision of Kyle Shanahan and Shanahan was surprised Kittle went as late as he did.Currently, PFF ranks Kittle first in yards/route run — two spots ahead of Kansas City Chiefs star tight end Travis Kelce. Kelce, however, beats Kittle in total yards with 741 vs. Kittle’s 692. In terms of PFF’s receiving grades Youth Mike Person Jersey , Kittle ranks third behind Kelce and O.J. Howard. Next up is the New York Giants. Kittle has consistently performed all season, but the Giants could present a modest challenge. Football Outsiders ranks them eighth in the NFL in defending tight ends. Who knows how this quarterback or offensive situation will shake out for 2019, but one thing is for sure, Kittle is a crucial piece for it. San Francisco quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo suffered what appears to be a season-ending knee injury when his knee buckled as he tried to cut back inside rather than stepping out of bounds late in Sunday’s loss to the Chiefs. Kansas City linebacker Justin Houston says Garoppolo has no one to blame but himself.“That was his fault,” Houston said. “I pray he’s not hurt Youth Dante Pettis Jersey , nothing serious, but as a quarterback you should step out of bounds. It was only an inch. That inch wouldn’t have made a difference. You got the yardage you need, you step out of bounds. You got to be smart.”Houston is right: Garoppolo was surrounded by Chiefs defenders and wasn’t going to gain any significant additional yardage by staying inbounds. He was at the sideline and easily could have stepped out and avoided any contact.Instead he decided to fight for maybe one extra yard, and that decision probably ended any hopes the 49ers have of making the playoffs. That was not smart.
