Mid-Season Wrap Up

With seven games left in regular season play, the 49ers are 6-2 and looking sharp. The team has returned from a trip across the pond (London), where they dominated the struggling Jacksonville Jaguars (0-8) in a 42-10 win.  Now after a bye week, giving some veteran players the time to rest and the injured ones time to heal, the Niners look ahead to a matchup against the Carolina Panthers at The Stick. The Panthers, led by gun slinger Cam Newton, are 5-3 and are coming off a big 43-10 win against the Atlanta Falcons.

Levi’s Stadium — The future home of the San Francisco 49ers

For the San Francisco 49ers organization and its fans, this season carries more meaning than the previous ones, and for many reasons. This season marks the last year at the beloved Candlestick Park, a stadium rich with history and full of excitement since its opening in 1960. The farewell season comes at a pivotal time for the Niners, as they are coming off a 2013 Super Bowl loss to the Baltimore Ravens, the 49ers first loss in six Super Bowl appearances. They begin their third season under head coach Jim Harbaugh, with rising star quarterback Colin Kaepernick in complete control of the offense. The bitter end of last season seems to have left a bad taste in their mouths, but now they are hungrier than ever, determined to prove why they are the greatest team.

The Golden Anniversary in the Golden State

The votes are in, and the NFL owners have chosen the San Francisco Bay Area to host Super Bowl 50 in 2016. The Golden Anniversary will be held at the new 49ers stadium in Santa Clara, which is set to be completed by the 2014 season.

This will be the first time the Bay Area will host a Super Bowl since 1985. And we all remember what happened then…
