 The San Francisco 49ers defense gave up a lot of key plays against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. The lack of tackling fundamentals was nothing short of maddening and the pass-rush was atrocious http://www.the49ersfootballauthentic.com/k_waun-williams-jersey-authentic , as is becoming tradition.One shining light to stand out was cornerback Greg Mabin. Mabin played 29 snaps in relief of Ahkello Witherspoon and later Jimmie Ward after the latter was benched, but he had some great highlights on the day. The most memorable being when he punched out the ball from Melvin Gordon’s hands. Unfortunately, the ensuing fumble was recovered by a player out of bounds, so no dice. Outside of the fumble http://www.the49ersfootballauthentic.com/george-kittle-jersey-authentic , Mabin was targeted five times and allowed two receptions for 18 yards. This, along with the fumble was enough to put Mabin Pro Football Focus’ Week 4 Team of the Week with a 89.2 ranking, joining fellow teammate tight end George Kittle. Here’s what PFF had to say about Mabin on the team: 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan was also pleased with Mabin’s performance and went into detail on the cornerback at Monday’s press conference: This is just one game, but the 49ers may have stumbled onto something with Mabin. They have had issues at the cornerback position Womens Arik Armstead Jersey , mostly due to players being healthy. If Mabin is not a starting cornerback (which we will find out in the coming weeks) he definitely could provide solid depth for the position which would let the 49ers focus on other positions (like a pass rusher) come draft time in 2019.“I love this locker room, I believe in it” - Cassius Marsh After incredibly high expectations to start the 2018 season, the 49ers obviously have had a disappointing 1-4 start. Losing Jerick McKinnon and Jimmy Garoppolo to season ending injuries has taken it’s toll as well as a laundry list of other injuries to players on the 53 man roster who are trying to fight through and be able to play on game days. Cassius Marsh said that’s just part of the business. Marsh became headline material when he revealed how happy he was when comparing the 49ers positive locker experience room to the Patriots environment not too long ago. Locker rooms can become a ticking time bomb for conflict when the frustration of losing gets to be too much. Marsh says that’s still not the case in Santa Clara and you can sense the attitude in his statements after the offense turned the ball over five times facing the Cardinals. There was no finger pointing last season through the teams 0-9 start and it appears that still remains the case as the team heads to Green Bay for a tough match up against Aaron Rodgers and the Packers on Monday night. While Marsh stated that there was a marked level of frustration with the ups and downs facing Arizona, he is proud of the way they fought until the end. He explains the attitude of the team versus others he has seen:In regards to missed assignments that happen on the field Youth Mike Person Jersey , Marsh detailed how they support each other instead of in-fighting and yelling, which is counter productive: When it comes to dealing with the frustration of all of the bad beats the 49ers have dealt with this season, Marsh says he refers back to something Richard Sherman shared with himwhen they were both on the Seahawks roster:
