Niners have plenty of work to do during late break in schedule
Perhaps no other team in 49ers history had as much work to do during the bye week as coach Kyle Shanahan’s unit does this year. But at least the Niners can go into their mid-November break feeling good about themselves after recording their first victory of the season in Week 10 against the New York Giants. However, that feel-good sendoff to San Francisco’s second latest in-season break since the bye week was instituted in 1990 doesn’t mask all the problems and issues facing the 49ers before it. The Niners can use the extra week to rest, reload and do the things necessary to put the team in position to record more victories down the homestretch. Here’s a list of 10 things the 49ers need to address before they return to action on Nov. 26 against the Seattle Seahawks, beginning a final run of six games that will complete Shanahan’s debut season.

49ers make All-Pro star highest-paid LB in NFL
Making the right choice at QB
In the weeks that follow after you read this — and perhaps sometime even sooner than that — Kyle Shanahan and the rest of the 49ers organization will make a titanic decision that will have present, future and perhaps even everlasting implications for the franchise. It will chart the course for the team’s pivotal 2021 season while determining whether San Francisco really does have the juice to return to powerhouse status and again be considered a legitimate contender to get back to the Super Bowl.
TOP 10 Linebacker seasons
Fred Warner vaulted to stardom with a spectacular 2020 season — and the 49ers rewarded him this summer with a $95.225 million deal that makes him the highest-paid inside linebacker in NFL history. By today’s standards, Warner’s performance last year was worth the money as he posted an Approximate Value of 19 — matching the highest score ever recorded by a San Francisco defender according to a Pro Football Reference formula that puts a single number on each player-season across all positions since 1960. Patrick Willis and NaVorro Bowman (twice) also had seasons with an AV of 19 as they dominate this list of the greatest individual seasons by a linebacker in 49ers history.
